Sure. You can see it in the 4th and 5th pics in the original post. I am happy to take more when I get home from Thanksgiving travel tomorrow. But it gives various configurable warnings for imminent collision, follow distance, over speed limit, and lane departure. It also turns the headlights between high and low beams automatically based on the presence of cars ahead.
 
Beautiful car! Tesla always advertised 0-60 as 4.2 seconds but you might be including the 1 foot rollout which Tesla now uses for performance cars.

I got the 0-60 from here: Tesla 0-60 Times more Electric Car 0 to 60 stats!

I'm not clear if that includes a rollout or not.

I am currently in discussions with someone who has made a full price offer. I am awaiting confirmation that he will move forward. If anyone else is interested, please go ahead and let me know, as well as ask any questions you have and let me know if you have a specific offer. I'll let you know if the current deal falls through.

I'm also happy to show the car this coming Friday or Sunday at my home in Solana Beach, California.
 
Don't wish to derails the thread but have you had the wheels painted?
If so what is the color please.
They seem to be a much darker "graphite" colour than the rather boring grey currently supplied.

Yep. I noted in the original post that they are powder coated black. (Its a dark grey really. They look darker when they are shiny.) I think they look great!
 
Anddddddddd now I'm the new owner. It looks like someone may have stripped some of the goodies you added off. It certainly does NOT look the same...
@TwistedGray : BTW, you're setting off all of my e-mail alerts by posting on every Supercharger thread I subscribe to... Haha! Not complaining at all! From the photos you're posting on the Supercharger threads, that Sig Red still looks sharp! Congrats on the purchase! How's the new battery pack? Is it limited to 120kW? My 2013 has an "A" pack and it's still stuck at 90kW max.

Ha ha - unlike 90% of the people I see, I get out of the car and putz around. Nice to update photos : )

At the 250kw in Santa Clarita I noted either 117kW or 107kW. I didn't pay well enough attention, but it was 100+.

At 90% it was at 261mi range. I've not needed a 100% charge, and I've only taken it to 90% once. The previous owner maxed at 80%. (It's 235mi at 80%.)

Such an amazingly fun car that I'm going to sell it and replace it with a P100DL.

Selling so soon?

I literally missed those early days of Model S and the Tesla community... My first child was still an infant at that time, so every time I'm at a Supercharger, I'm stuck inside the car with my daughter sleeping or changing diapers or doing something. Meanwhile, I see people getting out and chatting... You're right. It's really different today. Back in early 2013, we felt like mini-celebrities even here in the Bay Area.
 
Selling so soon?

Long story short - I was not looking to buy a Tesla. I always liked them, but I couldn't understand people spending $30-40k on a car with many tens of thousands of miles (re: a used Tesla) and only getting 200ish miles (in some cases). Fast forward to a month ago: I was having a hard time selling my RX350, and I found the third owner of this car interested in trading for an SUV. We traded vehicles, and I fell instantly in love. He was in the Tesla for just over $40,000 after the HV battery replacement and other unrelated things, so I felt like I made out on the deal (as far as used Teslas are concerned).

Over the last four years my wife has been busting her keister to get into (and ace along the way) nursing school, and as a present for her (graduates in a few weeks), we just left the Subaru dealer after signing papers on a 2021 Crosstrek. I'll take her Prius V (which I love - an amazing do-it-all car), and I'll sell the Tesla...in order to buy what I want (a ludicrous enabled Tesla orrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr a R35 - whichever is available once this sells).

Anyways, #70 is an amazing car! It has all of the upgrades of a newer model without AP/FSD. It's definitely the most fun I've ever had in a car.
