Hi guys! I'm still here, don't worry - couldn't find any singularity or black hole to escape through :biggrin:
I've been out enjoying the ride back from the factory, even though it has started raining again. Stopped in San Carlos for lunch but haven't been able to upload more photos for some reason, I'll do that as soon as I'm in front of a computer and "real" internet connection again.
Quick first impressions: simply amazing... truly the best car I've ever driven! The acceleration is obviously, well, insane... but the handling is what has really impressed me so far. Little to no body roll, very stable under both hard acceleration/braking and cornering. There is less noise from the front motor as I would expect (and read from others), but again I've not driven a non-D Model S for extended periods of time before.
Most of you are probably very familiar with the giant screen, but I'm still getting used to all the controls. It definitely feels pretty intuitive, it's more a matter of learning where all the options are. I love that the windshield wipers are fully-automated, no need to touch them ever again!
Cruise control feels pretty sensitive when increasing or decreasing speed - again something for me to get used to. Same with one-pedal driving, I haven't driven a car with so much regen, save for the BMW i3 which was ridiculously aggressive, and only for a few minutes.
OK that's it for now! More to come, including pics of course.
Oh and I took a half-hour video of the delivery walkthrough - yes, I used the GoPro! If there's enough interest I'll try to find a way to upload it.
Sorry there aren't more P85D-specific pieces yet, as a first Model S owner everything is new to me :redface:
Ah one more thing: the charge port can either be closed with a button on the screen, or if physically pushed a little manually the motor takes over the rest of the motion.
Stay tuned for more!
EDIT: ok it looks like at least one photo was uploaded.. let me try more.
