Yeah but it is also fake. If they wanted to be honest about it they could have just called it what it is, vinyl.Yeah they're proud of it. It's more sustainable. They were even more proud of it when they got rid of the leather on the steering wheel. That's no secret.
Vinyl, vegan leather, leatherette..... kinda all the same.
What I meant was anything masquerading as something it was not. They are open about the leatherette.
I had that problem as well. Last four cars before the S were red, all of them being Lexus'. Looked at a red S and there was no comparison between the Lexus paint and Tesla. Lexus' finish made Tesla look bland. Just had to go blue.Viva Plaid invisibility!
Given that why, oh why do I persist in buying Red, and only Red, cars?
That blows. I purposely got the 19's being told all season. Plan was to get 21's after, run the 19 all seasons down and change the 19's to winter at that time. Then switch them out for each season (winter vs summer) in New England. Not to mention I would have paid the 4500 at the time vs the 6k to now buy them after. Grrrrrrr.....My SA may get a knuckle sandwich. lol.
Definitely real wood. Mine has lots of splits along the grain from the forming process.
I did the opposite. I upgraded to the 21's not knowing they were summer tires.
Mine is a 431 and other than some minor issues it has been great. Omar's is also a 431 and he seems very happy with his as well.
Whatever they’re using for the seats in the refresh is nicer and softer than the real leather in my early P100D. It would be almost impossible to tell it’s not real leather. It even smells like leather haVinyl, vegan leather, leatherette..... kinda all the same.
Exactly. Tesla has by far the best leatherette I've ever felt. If you really really feel for it, you can maybe slightly feel it's based on plastic, but nothing like any other seats. Most people would not notice. It's awesome IMO!
The ticket is called display of speed.
I've never owned a Mazda but I have to say, they have some of the nicest reds and blues I've seen in all of autodom. Especially when the sun hits it.
Nope! Got there and and got a call before i could on saying had to reschedule for this weekend
Acceleration is not speed. They could at least get the name of the ticket correct. Maybe call it "Excessive rate of change, as judged by the officer's eye's, with no verifiable way of proving the officer's assessment."
I don’t know if you’ve ever seen Tesla ‘Signature Red’… my favorite color of any car.
Still incorrectly named. Speed is a constant. Acceleration is a rate of change. I don't believe any police department has an accelerometer that can measure my rate of change. It's a judgement call, based solely on what they have decided is excessive.
Yes they have dropped the prices many times before. The old model S long range was down to $69,420 before the refresh. I expect the LR to go up another 10k to 100k, stay there until production gets caught up, and then slowly go down to 80k over the next several years. Just a guess though based on nothing.
