I just couldn't live with it. Coming from the cars I've owned, I am the prime demographic for a P85+. I just happened to get into the wrong car, and I needed to correct that.

YES!!! You will love it--very different than P.

Can't wait to see it!

thanks for the consistent yet indirect kicks in the ass.

I'll also be running a nice set of 9" front and 10" rear deep concave forged wheels too when they come in. Excited to finally settle into the right Tesla for me.

To clarify my earlier post - even though I felt my P85+ is slightly "louder" at freeway speeds than the P85, it's still quieter than most ICE cars, including my prior M5. And the P85+ suspension feels similar to the M5's "Normal" suspension setting (Options are "Comfort", "Normal", and "Sport"). I got used to the "Comfort" setting on the M5, so the P85+ feels a bit stiffer, but not as stiff as the M5 "Sport" setting. You couldn't pay me to go back to a Non-Plus P85.
