Love the carbon fiber accents and forged wheels! I'm thinking there are lots of people on the East Coast would who love this car. The extended service agreement is also a nice touch.

I'm glad to hear you are still alive!

I would be happy to provide a chance in experience report when my beautiful new black 60 kWh arrives this month!

Nice article (and photo)!

My car was one of those... TEG - is that Jimmy Kimmel in the red Tesla? Is that a dealership car?

You should bring it out to this Saturday's Supercar Saturdays so we can all admire it! (Note the location change to Autowerks in Northbrook.)

I tried using my AC a few weeks ago and it didn't feel like it was operating properly, so I brought it to the local Tesla service and I found out that I had a leak in my AC line. So if you have any doubts, you should take it in and get it checked out.

I'm finding the same problem. Is there a way to code the site so we have a choice between a mobile version or a full version when we access TMC on our iPads/iPhones, etc?

My regular sized golf bag, complete with several fluffy animal head covers, fits in the trunk of my Roadster.

Supercar Saturdays was an awesome event - we had good weather, 250-300 cars on display and about 3000 people attending. There was a good Tesla turnout, with a variety of Tesla Roadsters colors on display. Join us at the next Supercar Saturdays, the first Saturday of each month from 8 am to...

I'm considering having my twilight blue Roadster painted a custom color. I was told that it is automatically assumed that your car had some damage and that's why it was repainted. Any thoughts? I don't want to devalue my car if I don't need to.

Awesome!!! Nice interview! :cool:

YouTube - IBM Commercial Data Energy: Analyzing Data from Energy Sources Is there a connection between IBM and Tesla?

There is a Tesla coil that goes off twice and hour and several displays referencing Nikola Tesla in the Science Storms display at the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago. Museum of Science and Industry | What's Here | Exhibits | Science Storms

How much energy would I be losing from having western facing panels instead of southern panels? And do winters/snow affect the panels as well?

Thanks for all the info. What about the flexible PV panels, like the one Uni-Solar produces? Is this the same as the same as thin film, or is this a separate entity? I heard the flexible panels are supposed to produce 15-20% more energy than traditional panels. Is this true?

I'm a newbie thinking about installing solar panels on my home. Anyone in the Chicagoland area have any experience with or information on home solar installation? Does anyone know if your roof needs to face south, or can you put it on a west facing roof? How steep can your roof be? What are...

Shouldn't you two be working?? :tongue:

Do they have a price on the car yet?

I was more referring to the waiving of the valet fee for my "contribution to the environment," although apparently this is also the first time I have had a fancy enough car to leave out front! :tongue:

I wanted to start a thread that lists establishments that have special incentives for EVs, like priority parking, fee waivers, etc. For example, I went to Charlie Trotter's in Chicago for my birthday dinner recently, and when we pulled up to the valet area, a guy came out and said we could...

I guess we will see, but having dealt with many other car companies over the years, I have been far more impressed by Tesla than other "favorite" brands. If Tesla develops and supports their future models the same way they have developed and supported the Roadster, I think people will come to...

I have a 2010 Roadster, 2.0.

I had my firmware upgraded last week at the dealership and that was one of the new features the service manager pointed out - the ability to switch between standard, performance, and range modes by just touching the battery on the range battery screen.

There was a display of the Aptera at the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago, in the Fast Forward section. The heading was WHAT IF - all cars stopped using gas?

I just installed my carbon fiber door sills from Al & Eds West Hollywood. They do look sharp (much better than what was there originally). I did have to shave off these little plastic clips where the door sills insert towards the front of the car to make the door sills fit. I'm not sure if...

The Grand Opening Party on January 21st at Tesla Chicago was awesome! The showroom looked amazing - I think they should keep it like that all the time (open bar and all). Think of how many Roadsters they could sell. :smile:
