Owners putting a higher trim badge on is one thing but this is pretty funny

[Drucifer]

Heck, I just get a laugh out of this. 0-60 in 9 seconds, give or take a second or two.

It's all about maximizing perceived value thru effective naming.

According to XKCD, the Model X is going to do REAL well in that area. The model 3 -- also good. We really dodged a bullet though, "Tesla Model Y" would have totally sucked.

poor man/lady P85D

 

[kooljack]

P85D badge is better than having a spoiler on a corolla :wink:

 

[Tesla S1]

That is AWESOME! Gotta be faster with that badge.

 

[jasonjax]

I wonder if the badge came with his last battery change.....

 

[EternalChampion]

That curbweight on the Corolla is 2865. Imagine that with the P85D undercarriage.

That's a 100-point swing for the better when Ford forced the Model E to become the Model 3 -- big win for Tesla! :tongue:

 

[anticitizen13.7]

Haha. That reminds me of Corollas I've seen with Honda DOHC i-VTEC stickers on the side doors.

Don't know if they sell to just anyone, but they're expensive. The P85 badge itself is $76. Don't know how much the 'P85D' badge costs.

Personally, I'd like to get the 'X' and create a P90X badge. But maybe they'll reserve that for the Model X.
Probably because P90D badges are rare. Maybe they can get one from an S60 and rotate the '6' around. :biggrin:

You just need to find the underline for the P90D badge ... I have a 85 badge for sale, just PM me.

Interesting, however, I'm not sure that I believe the data ... how is the iconic 911 at -1.85?

Now how much are those Corolla badges. Probably more than a Camry!

 

[kushari]

Corolla with a P85D badge = Ludicrous mode:biggrin:

You mean Delusional mode.

 

[uberanalyst]

Wait a minute, weren't Toyota Corollas, GEO Prizms, and Pontiac Vibes all built in the Fremont factory by NUMMI before Tesla bought it?

Perhaps the owner knows this and that's why he's entitled to put a P85D badge on his Corolla. The cars are obviously related!

 

[jlucero]

that is embarrassing...i wouldnt be embarrassed to drive a corolla, but with that badge, my goodness..

 

[mknox]

Yes. I have the distinction of saying that both of my current cars came from that factory (the other being a Pontiac Vibe). :biggrin:

SCORE! For $25.99 I can have a P70DD. Beat that!

 

[FlatSix911]

Is this product just the red decal or the PD badge? Not clear from the description and photos?

That was my rental last week. Kept it in Sport M (7 speed) all week & stomped on it. So f'ing slow.
