    P85 vs P85+ and other first impressions from a non-sports-car-guy (long, w/pics)

    Fantastic report. I picked up my P85 2 weeks ago and had that spinning nav issue as well. Luckily it went away on its own after the first 3 days. Nav is working great now. I'm on firmware 5.0

    P85 loses grip off the line when I floor it. Do I need wider rims?

    UPDATE: I tried with the TC off and the peeling is even harder and more slippery. I got legit burnouts! Seems like the answer may be bigger, wider rims with good quality summer rubber.

    P85 loses grip off the line when I floor it. Do I need wider rims?

    Great video mnx! That's exactly what happens to me when I floor it. I'd love to reduce the peeling so that I can accelerate faster off the line. I'm going to try driving without the Traction Control engaged. Perhaps this may help? I'm also looking to purchase 20" aftermarket wheels and rubber...

    P85 loses grip off the line when I floor it. Do I need wider rims?

    Hi guys, I'd say i'm a fairly aggressive driver and I love to floor the pedal when the light hits green. Problem I been having is my P85 with 19" rims seems to have too much power as I lose grip on the road and skid or peel when I floor it. What's the best way to reduce this issue? Would...

    Online ordering all weather interior mat

    Canadians, What site did you guys order the mats from? They are $200 for front and back on the Tesla.com site and $186.95 at the Weather Tech site. So Weather Tech site seems a tad cheaper for the same mats. I phoned the Toronto service center and they said that all the mats were currently sold...

    Toronto to Miami road trip. Best route?

    Hey guys, I'll be doing a road trip from Toronto to Miami in October and am wondering if anyone has done this trip with the Model S yet. Seems there is only 1 Supercharger along the way and that one is located in Florida and not far from Miami. I would need to recharge at night as I will be...

    Trade in?

    Don't feel so bad. Yorkdale Tesla originally offered me $17,500 but I was honest and told them about an accident the truck had been in, that's when they came back to me at a lower offer of $14,000. The difference between the $17,500 they offered me originally and the $21,000 that I sold it for...

    What did you drive before getting the model S and why did you change?

    2006 black Cadillac Escalade and 2007 white Cadillac Escalade. Driving about 30,000 km per year, the gas savings alone in my P85 made sense for me to buy it. Delivery is slated for September 16 so I'm anxiously waiting.

    Trade in?

    I was offered $14,000 for trade in of my 2007 Cadillac Escalade in Toronto and chose to sell it privately. After posting it on autotrader and kijiji, i got it sold within a week for $21,000.
