When words like, "new chassis" and, "prototype" start to get thrown around that tells the discerning buyer to wait for the next gen. Notice I stated "discerning" buyer.

I thought it still had 2 motors? If not then yes, perfect example. I only recall reading about the efficiency improvements etc. But in particular to my post I was refereeing to the new upgraded version that will have a "Plaid" mode.

Laguna Seca Says Tesla's Model S Record Lap Isn't Official
“We were not officiating while the Tesla was testing on the track," the track official told CNBC. "Official records only happen during sanctioned events where a sanctioning body is officiating.”
So technically speaking, Tesla hasn't officially broke the record for four-door production cars.
Laguna Seca Official: Tesla's Model S Record Lap Isn't Official
I don't know if these car companies really care about the sanctioning rules and just want the pub or there is a massive ineptitude or ignorance of how things work.

What's the difference? Tesla has the video evidence. It's not trying to go in the record books.
Too bad Tesla couldn’t have just included the word “unofficially” when making the statement. Nothing like giving the haters more ammo.
Linguistic ambiguity. You wrote "3 motors", and I interpreted it as "motors from the Model 3", rather than "a total of three motors".

Progress and updates are expected, and will always osborne current products, ex laptops, phones, etc. The only thing that didn't suffer from osborne effect is the Osborne computer, and so they fell of the map. (and they were hard to repair)
Yes, and if you're worried about a plaid S osborning current S then just think about what that plaid S will do to the sales of other fast sedans.
Haters are good at finding excuses to hate.
The tycan Nurburgring time was unofficial too. I didn't see CNBC pointing that out.
Tesla is treated in a different way. It's right to push the company to do better, but expecting them to be perfect so they will not get attacked... they will never be perfect. Haters will always find excuses.
hmmm, i feel there may be a goldilocks point between the two answers.
The Taycan was heavily modified as well including an inside cage but still Porsche did say today if Tesla would not use a production care it would be against the "rules"
The plaid Model S is since today for 3 weeks at the Nürburgring with an experienced driver who knows that track very well. Car is called Model S P100+
They have improved aerodynamics, special wheels, over roll bar and likely tuned it for better performance.
My guess: they came to win.
Tesla-Attacke auf den Porsche Taycan: Stärkeres Model S übt für den Ring-Rekord
Consolidation=MM trying to keep SP in sight of 'Max Pain'. (Yes, I do know the trading week ends tomorrow, not today
Will take some effort. OK it's up from $225 and $227.50, but they need to push it down around 3% before close tomorrow
