Pics:
Fair bit of black in the front. Of course most of the dash is black cuz it’s screens
Back seat is lighter with only the carpets really in black.
You can hardly tell at all from the outside. I do think that it’s important to get as many black trim pieces as you can on the outside...
Unless you guys in the UK get different interior choices than we do here in the colonies, there is no chalk/beige, just black/chalk and black/beige. Per the configurator, the same parts are non-black in either color. (This is not the case with all colors, for some it is e.g. just the seat...
We have a $100 deposit down on an iD4 to use as a beater/commuter car.
Our plan was to wait until electric pickups start rolling off the lines and then also look to replace my wife's truck with one of them. But her truck is currently in the shop with cam phaser issues, so the iD4 might instead...
I've been getting that message on my car for as long as I've had it (the car), about 2.5 weeks. No workaround for me, except to use Apple Music on CarPlay.
I'd ask for a 30-day, no questions asked, full money back return period. I really don't think I could bring myself to pay money for a buyback without that. If the car can make it 30 days without any problems, it's probably been fixed and I got a great deal. But at the first nontrivial problem...
My car is newer than the update and my shift point is 78. Sport plus always seems to keep the car in 1st right up to "redline," although once it gets into 2nd it will let me stay there to... not sure, I may never have encountered a downshift when not on the brakes. When I'm hard on the throttle...
That is how nearly every dealer-spec 4S is built: premium, sport chrono but no perf. Tech package isn't really anything you need to experience first-hand IMO. The tech package is all stuff that's cool, perhaps more useful than you'd expect, but is by no means must-have. If I were in your shoes...
I live in New Hampshire, so my take on it is: Live free or die.
So far the local PD hasn't seemed to care, which is good, because if they decided to be strict about it I probably would have no choice but to comply.
Yep, my first and second experiences at EA were over the Labor Day weekend when it was free for everybody. My third experience it wanted money. I had to Google how the heck to get the free charging. But now I know, and have the dumb app, so when I'm in a situation where I actually need to charge...
Conversations with Tesla fanboys can occasionally seem oddly 1984-ish.
The Cybertruck is coming out in late 2022. The Cybertruck has always been coming out in late 2022.
I think it probably varies. Certainly Teslas are dream cars for some people, especially younger people. Every couple of days I see something on social media of a 20-something leaning on the hood of his or her brand new Model 3, with a caption like, "My first car, and it's my dream car!"
But the...
My MSRP was about the same as yours. I'm very happy. I don't think there are any options I'd give back.
I do have the performance package. I felt that if I was going to have a Porsche, I wanted it to be as "Porsche" as possible. To me, that means ticking every single performance box.
If you...
My experience is that it's ineffective, by the way. The car's like a rolling jump scare in parking lots. It would be funny if not for the fact that I'm afraid that some day somebody will jump out in front of me and I won't be able to stop in time. In parking lots it's sometimes just not possible...
When you say contrasting color, you mean two-tone interior, right?
I have limestone beige/black on FBM and it looks great. Crayon/black would look even better IMO. I just knew I wouldn't be able to keep it clean and felt beige would hold up better.
I used PASM as a proxy for all the suspension-related performance options, because they are f'ing magic. Rides smooth as silk in normal, perfectly planted and sharp in sport plus.
Premium package is pretty essential in the US if you ever intend to sell your car. Ditto for PB+.
I consider ACC a...
I've noticed that my car has developed an occasional rhythmic buzz or chirp which fades in and out in response to steering input at higher (45mph+) speeds. I would describe it as sounding almost exactly like cicadas from a distance. In fact, that's exactly what my wife thinks it is, but to me it...
We've used EA twice and both times it's worked perfectly. Maybe lucky, maybe because it was a free weekend, but whatever the reason we literally couldn't ask for a better or easier experience.
The EV community needs to figure out charging etiquette. At our most recent session, the 350kW...
