The moment my life changed!

It's not just 'Vegans'. As a rule, I don't like leather interiors. I *much* prefer cloth. I hate the fact that the other manufacturers bundle leather (which I DON'T want) with the high-tech options (that I *do* want) so they can justify a higher price (making 1+1=3).

Yes it is, but Elon was very kind and made an exception for me. Hopefully in the near future this option will be available to everyone.

On delivery, just make sure they didn't give you the 2012 model seats without heating, lumbar support and driver profiles like they did for me.

Silver P85+ with dark wheels, panoramic roof and all the other good stuff, carbon fiber spoiler, carbon fiber interior, and one of my favorite features: non leather seats and steering wheel. No dead cows in my Model S!

What about the dash and other trim? Were you able to get some funky custom option as well?

It looks like she picked the CF interior trim. Dark wheels means 21" grey wheels as part of the P85+ package.

This is a photo of a moment when my life changed - confirming my Tesla order. As an environmentalist, my guilty pleasure has always been fast cars. Now, for the first time in my life, I will be able to drive one without guilt. I've never been this excited about a street car in my life. *tears of joy* Thank you, Elon.

A historical moment indeed! Congratulations!

Now are you already an investor of TSLA? If not how long it will take you? Or is there any negative factor surrounding that since you are a public figure?

I don't think we should be publicly questioning anyone about their income or financial investments.

Truth. Chances are somebody from the press will get it and spin it into some ridiculous story.

Congrats on the car Leilani!

On my factory tour, the guide spent quite a bit of time talking about the Nappa Leather and how exclusive it is. He felt Tesla didn't make a big enough deal about it and how it is virtually flawless and is rarely seen outside of Rolls Royce class vehicles. He even suggested that the demand may outstrip the supply of the stuff. (Not trying to make a pro vs. con judgement here).

I want to buy your car when you're done with it! I was thinking about getting the 60kWh, but after driving the P85 I can't unsee what I've seen. I was planning on trying to buy a used P85 in 2 or 3 years. My big problem is that leather-free P85's are hard to come by. The dealership in San Diego told me that they had sold a few P85's without leather.
