That’s a good point about the home charger install! 8k for that??? :o
Yeah, no.
$200 to install a 240 volt 50 amp socket in my garage, which is all that’s needed. Charger itself is included in the price of every Tesla.
2017 P100D listed 85k (160k MSRP) in 2 years…thats worse than Mercedes S-Class. But at the same time you can get a P100D for 80k
Even better info:

LOL you are clearly not very up to dates on development releases from Mercedes… 8 years ago in a statement Mercedes said that by 2020 all their vehicles would be diesel and oddly enough that isn’t true…
ok so you finally realize that the tesla isn’t 53,000 and I know you must have reading issues maybe its all the radiation. But clearly on the Dodge website that YOU linked to the Much faster Charger starts at 62. And you don’t have to pay 8k to install the ability to charge it…
Lets recap just how embarrassingly wrong you’ve been
Tesla is faster than its competitors… WRONG… hell cat is much faster and can be made to be even faster than the mightily P1000
Tesla charges no destination fee… WRONG AGAIN… they charge for that and roll it into the price.
The TESLA is cheaper… this one has been a bit difficult for you so. I have no issues keeping it simple although real world accounts say by the time you get the car your paying over 64k… I’ll give you the 56k price tag that comes in slightly less than the much faster Dodge… You like to ignore common sense things like you don’t have to pay 8k to install anything at home to charge your Dodge but whatever… The RS3 is another one to consider that big just pointed out and that as well requires a bit of a flash update but once updated just like the teslas get a performance flash update. The RS3 dominates so. Overall… Not looking to interesting for the TESLA

Nope:

Oh, and BTW - The Telsa also beats the RS3 around the track as well.
Don’t get me wrong - the RS3 is a VERY cool car and I thought about getting one at one point, but the small back seat makes it impractical as our family sedan. Then after I drove the Tesla, nothing else mattered.

Where did you get the idea that it costs $8K to install a Tesla charging setup at home? Mine cost $200 all-in (parts and labor for an electrician), and others have typically paid $200-$800.

ORLY? LOL!
Interesting looking at consumer reports and the two highest rated brands in satisfaction are Tesla and Porsche. Both of which have cultist-like consumers, and in that same report it noted “the Model 3 was reported to have average reliability” and “It previously recommended the Model S sedan, but the vehicle lost that recommendation due to reliability issues”…despite making cars with reliability issues people are still satisfied? ???
Which is proven in resale price of 80K Tesla P100D from 160k 2 years ago!

The guy in the RS3 reacted slower or P3D guy jumped the gun. TT-RS runs faster 1/4 miles > P3D > RS3
If you are going to modify your car would you still choose a P3D over RS3?

You got a great deal, I cant even get a plumber, electrician, landscaper, metal worker to even look at my for (quote) for under $200

Again looking at dragtimes.com, 16 of the 19 P3D times listed are quicker than the quickest stock TT-RS, so the data doesn’t support your conclusion.
[quote=“bigserve134,post:829,topic:7706”]
Yes I got a good deal, but it’s still typically less than $800 to install a charging socket.
As I’ve said, for my DD, I’m done with ICE vehicles, so yes, I’d choose the P3D every time.

So if you get your ass handed to you by a bolt-on tuned TT-RS/RS3 running 9s you would care a bit?
[quote=“bigserve134,post:831,topic:7706”]
There’s ALWAYS somebody/something faster, regardless of what you drive, and there’s a lot more to what makes a good daily driver than straight line speed, so no, I wouldn’t care at all.
This car is the total package - comfortable and quiet when I want it to be, with killer audio and outstanding handling, but able to pin its ears back and explode into the distance with zero prep whenever I want. I enjoy it more than any car I’ve previously owned.

Have you tested a P100D?
Of course there will be always something out there faster but the chances of someone shitting on a relaible 9 sec car is like 0.000001%…you’re talking about UR racing lambos, built american muscle cars, built GT-Rs nothing that i’ve ever run into in my area. London, Dubai, southern Cali then maybe 0.0001%
