My car was delivered yesterday evening. They went above and beyond and delivered it to my home with a pickup and an enclosed trailer. The DA had never driven a trailer before but I was going out of the country for 2 wks and they were trying to be accommodating.
I drove 350 miles on interstates, thru downtown Chicago and Lakeshore drive, and hit an Electrify America station.
Current perspective is from driving: 7 series, maserati, escalade, ducati, vrod.
Super Impressed with:
- smoothness
- ride quality
- acceleration
Things I noticed:
- getting in and out is a little different, takes about 3 times before it becomes habit
- visor location does feel different (I will work on removing these is not too involved)
- EA was so easy it was surprising
- some things need to get to the next level of refinement but all kinda of little (mirror folding controls, boot up for BT music and screens)
- I was shocked in a good way that fobs, doors, locking all worked flawlessly (based on all that I had read, I was kind of dreading having to be patient with daily interactions but it has not been the case)
- no flaws were present on the car, I sent the checklist in advance, I may find something later but I literally had zero complaints
- massagers are really good (kind of thought this was a gimmick but realized they were very good)
- all the lane departure and distracted driver stuff is an annoyance; as soon as I have a moment I will turn all of that off
- zero concerns about running 21's even in pothole ridden midwest
- one pedal driving is better
A lot still to get thru but I was slightly concerned and I would say I am absolutely impressed.
I will however: wrap the top and mirrors and swap out wheels.
