As the title says it--- I figured Id post here with some pics of course. I have never been an EV owner and while I have driven many a Model S and Model 3 variants, my heart has always been with ICE cars and their sounds they make as one accelerates and decelerates. But, the Plaid piqued my interest and I thought if I can get one right away Ill do it. I got lucky and found one on the ground in Santa Barbara and had it shipped down but when it came to delivery; the car had paint inclusions and we (Tesla Reps and myself) decided against delivery. The regional manager was able to find me this car a few hours later, unspoken for- and the rest is history (2021 Plaid MSM with Black on Carbon guts).
I come from owning many cars that are strong in performance (12 AMG's, 11 M's, 3 R8's, 2 F cars, Lambo, GTR, 9 Porsche's, NSX, etc) most with brilliant sound to match the rpms but this Plaid is the fastest car Ive ever owned- modded or not. So now Ill just drive it, learn the nuances, and remain safe all the same. I actually am getting used to the yoke wheel about 120 miles in but its still a bit odd with full U turn maneuvers.
I did do some minor adjustments out of personal preferences:
Tint 35% Ceramic
Ceramic Coating
N2itive Plaid Lowering Links (.8 inch drop front 1 inch drop rear)
