I have a garage with 2 relatively narrow doors. The Model S that I am replacing can fit in the doors (barely) if I fold the mirrors in. The specs of the air indicate "Width (with/without mirrors) in 86.4 / 76.2"
Does the without measurment mean the width when the mirrors are folded in, or is really the width without taking the mirrors into account?

I don't know the measurements of the door opening and won't until I am back to the house in about 2 weeks, and I am taking delivery of my new Air at that time. The Model S dimensions read 86.2/78.2. So it seems like the Air with mirrors folded in is just slightly narrower than the Model S, but I am not sure if I am thinking about that correctly.
 
I think it's 2nd is max width excluding the mirrors, so the widest part after that is the body on the rear fender haunches. The mirrors fold-in quite tightly. There is a way to use home link or some automation to fold the mirrors in location-wise. I had to get used to it the first few months I had the car, I would fold the mirrors in on the driveway before pulling into the garage. Now I can basically thread the needle and get the car into the garage with the mirrors open and within an inch of the door opening. Did you get the 2nd level DreamDrive with 360 surround cameras?

I bought a car that was in stock - unfortunately it does not have DD Pro. From your description of the mirrors, I suspect that I will also be able to just squeeze the car through the door.
