Thanks to everyone for their responses. I look forward to seeing mcornwell's S driving around Carlsbad. Todd, I also wanted to thank you for your mockups and starting the thread in the first place. I agree those Audi rims look amazing. As a someone who knows nothing about the powder coating process, it seems like it can be done with a matte, satin, or high gloss look? My personal preference would be a satin look much like the 21" performance greys with perhaps a white, grey, or black exterior. I don't believe that would void the warranty since you are still using the OEM wheels? Thanks again.
My personal plan is reserve by the end of the year. Like many of you I'm still somewhat worried about the long term viability after 2013 and I would like to see what the Model S 1.5 version upgrades might be. I'm also hoping I can make some money from my stock by then to justify the expense.
