I had a '72 240Z...louvers on the back. White with black wheels...so many good memories...pretty useless added comment on this thread but what the heck!

I have heard you can get some discounts on dealer stock (3-5%) but they're not discounting custom orders. Depending on how much you put down as a deposit on your custom build there may be an opportunity to "deal or walk" from that money...but that's a game of chicken ultimately. I did get dealer...

Ok guess I’ll ask one more inane question. Isn’t it more ideal to NOT have the u-turn in the short cord from the outlet to the charger? Meaning more like @wmras? Or does it not matter? Also worth saying I won’t have the dock - I realize the dock requires the u-turn.

You nailed it. I’m finally clear. Sorry it took so long!

Hi @daveo4EV - me again. More clarification questions if you don’t mind. I bought the TeslaTap 80a. But I also want to charge at 48 amps at my house. So I believe I need the Tesla Gen 2 charger. But still unclear on circuit and outlet requirement. Right now I have 14-50 with 6/3 wire planned to...

Thanks!

@wmras in your install is your ground pin up or down? I want to mimic this set up. Thanks

Anyone in the Tri-State get the PFF / Xpel clear wrap / another paint protection product? Location and cost? Is it really necessary? My new baby lands in the US 10/9 a week ahead of schedule!

All - anyone know how to track your build once it gets loaded on the ship? My dealer report says it's going to "Entry Port Emden" tomorrow (Entry into US / Exit port Davisville on 10/9) and I know a bunch of you have been able to track. Thanks for the assist!

Luke - thanks for taking our questions. Mine is: does your dealership paint the Taycan brake calipers and what do you usually charge? Thanks

@Jaymo - man I'm so happy with my build...a 4S in dolomite with SportDesign - only two differences between what's coming for me is all black Mission E's and a manual charger door...but DAMN she looks great!

Another newbie question: assuming you have a TeslaTap, is this road trip a lot easier by also utilizing non-super Charger Tesla locations? And what’s the process for using those (e.g. reserving / paying)?

As expected, a phenomenal response. Super clear and actionable. Thank you sir!

I’ve read so many things my head hurts. So @daveo4EV - seems you have a lot of knowledge here. I’m having a 14-50 receptacle installed to a new 50a circuit. I think that’s the standard move. I purchased the PMCC but I’m reading it’s only going to handle a max of 32a producing far less than the...

Gorgeous. My Dolomite / all black Mission E’s supposedly went into production yesterday. Delivery in CT mid-Oct fingers crossed. Such a great look. ALSO - SportDesign looks amazing. So glad I picked that as well for my 4S.

Might be a noob question but is Xpel a clear wrap for paint protection? Any other benefit? And would someone provide approx cost for the Taycan?

Also curious about the answer and approx what you were charged if you don’t mind sharing...

I went 4S for all the same reasons. Trick it out with SportDesign and 21 Mission E’s and you won’t miss the .6-ish diff in 0-60 acceleration with $30K still in your pocket. Launch control in Sport+ still gives you all you need IMHO. Car comes Oct 16 (crossing my fingers date holds).

Tick tock...10/16 pick up date in Greenwich CT (fingers crossed!)

Man that’s a hard question - it’s purely about what style you like - contrast or no contrast. For me, I like the all black wheels. But Dolomite is lighter color so higher contrast. Good luck - both colors / styles will look amazing.
