6'4", swung by garage to see some colors and ended up test driving a Model S85 with radar yesterday at Easton, OH. Loved every bit, I suspect radar participates in regen braking as I only had to touch brake at very end. Almost hit a car accelerating, this car is like a go-cart on hovercraft suspension. I only heard the motor while going up on a ramp. Insane acceleration.
11yo future 6'8" daughter enjoying her first unhook of many to come, I hope she will never even get to know how an ICE feels like to drive:
I hit my head twice into roof liner before I understood how sensitive the brakes are at parking lot speeds. Roof liner takes an abrupt downward slope above windshield and makes the view similar to what I would see out of my B8 Audi S4 with sunvisor down. Yes, I did have the seat all the way down with lumbar support deflated.
Car was without pano, and there was plenty of headroom with my head on headrest, but could not bend forward. Telescoping the steering wheel out and moving back helped a lot.
Any tall owners bothered a lot by this?
Otherwise I am 100% sold on the car, can't wait to take wife and all 3 kids for the second test drive in December.
