So they say my car is ready for pick up. As much as I like this P90D I'm ready to get my P85 back.
Obviously my P85 is not as fast as this one, but I honestly don't think I'll miss the extra torque. Aside doing "launches" which i will admit is a LOT of fun, its really beyond usable for my personal normal driving and I have a lead foot. (do i want one? abso-friggin-lutely.) But i'm really happy with my car's performance.
The front drive unit makes a fair amount of noise and eats up frunk space. I like the huge frunk on mine and maybe this car just has a bad front DU? I use our frunk whenever possible to freak people out, and I maxed this one out with $58 at wallmart. But it is louder than mine because of the DU. Funny, I used to love the roar of a big block V8, now I get a rise out of pure quiet "whispy" Teslarraleration. I just invented that word but you can use it.
Any color looks like butt when dirty but the dirty MCR was killing me until the weather broke and i was able to wash it. Love it clean but still think Pearl White shows the body lines better and contrasts with darker rims better. Just my personal opinion, I love MCR but think PW edges it by a nose. I also love the unicorn Dark Green, Brown and Goldish ones, but would grab a dark blue in a heartbeat as well. I just don't want any more silver cars, they look great, but my previous three cars were all silver-ish.
A couple other things I noticed and will mention to the SvC, the roof makes the "it's always raining" sound along the front edge which i've read is just a clip that needs some cushion. Also the rear DU makes a noise that may or may not be the "milling" sound at lower volumes. It's low pitched and I've always read the milling sound was more high pitched so not sure there, but I'll mention it. Mine just seems to be a lot quieter to drive, less clunky overall and tighter driving.
When this car goes from loaner to CPO I'm sure it will get everything fixed, based on the condition of my CPO at delivery. I do love the smart cruise control and AP, amazing features I'll want on my next one for sure. I just think I won't want a front DU. So maybe a P85+ with AP in my future? Only time will tell! I'm not saying a front DU is out of the question, but I think I can do without it so long as I get the other cool toys this one has.
But I do miss her.
Anyway, that's worth what you paid for it. As Dennis Miller says, "that's just my opinion, I could be wrong."
Happy miles!
