Model S Performance is Amazing
Best car I have ever owned. Fast, comfortable and a great driver's car. Previously had a heavily tuned Audi S6 but the Model S performance has been a significant step up. First car where the technology improves the driving experience - all other ones I have owned I just defaulted to my cell phone for everything. Love charging at home. Only critique is that the fit and finish isn't up to German standards. Trade off is definitely worth it though.
Best Car I've Ever Had
Tesla Model S is the best car I've ever driven. It's fast, it's smooth and the technology that comes with it is lightyears ahead of anything that's out there today. 0-60 in 2.9 literally pulls your body into the seat like your on the Gravitron. Auto-Pilot is amazing and makes long drives a piece of cake as it drives for you. Still have to pay attention to the road but it is very adaptive and it's fun to watch the car drive itself. Charging is easy if you're just driving around the city. If you are taking it on a long trip, a quick 20 minute stop at a charging station every 3 hrs will keep you on your way. The interior is not like a Mercedes and would like to see Telsla update that some day. But everything else about this car is stellar. Would definitely recommend, especially if you're someone who likes having the latest and greatest tech
Service is awful
Tesla Service is absolutely awful. It has taken two months to get control arms replaced. They replaced windshield and now it leaks. They want to charge me for a second one because they say they don't warranty windshields. No joke. First you schedule a service issue. Then they schedule you three weeks out and diagnose the problem. Then they schedule you to come back in another 4 weeks to have the problem repaired. All the while they send you snarky text responses to your questions and tell you how all of this is your fault. They all need service at some point. I don't see this getting better any time soon. This was also the second time this happened. The first time was for severe shaking during acceleration. Same awful experience. Takes weeks to fix and you have to deal with snarky, condescending text messages on the app. BOTTOM LINE: DONT BUY A TESLA.
