2014 / Model S / 4dr Sdn AWD P85D / Pearl White Multi-Coat

2014 Used Tesla MODEL S P85D. Asheville. North Carolina
AP-1 aka – ( HIGHWAY AUTOPILOT )
Autopilot with Convenience Features: Enables Traffic-Aware Cruise Control, Front Collision Warning and Lane Departure Avoidance.
* This version cannot be upgraded to Full Self-Driving.

This Model S P85D has every possible option and has been fully upgraded in every way imaginable (except for Ludicrous). A November 2014 build, it was originally delivered on 1/15/2015 and so still has drivetrain and battery warranty through 1/15/2023 (bumper-to-bumper general warranty has expired). The car has been garaged at all times at both home and work and has CilaJet ceramic coating paint protection. The battery has been babied with the vast majority of the charging on level 1 or 2 AC (very little Supercharging despite free unlimited Supercharging for life), routine charging limited to 80-90%, and charged up to 100% only a single digit number of times in its life. The range at 100% charge is 237 mi as of July 2022.

***This car, like all early P85D builds, comes with the vaunted Performance Plus suspension which inspires religious devotion amongst its fans for its extremely sporty and tight handling due to upgraded sway bars and bushings. The Rear-Facing seats turn the car into a 7-person family hauler, and my kids (ages 5 and 8) refuse to ride anywhere else – though the RFS are not suitable for adults or teenagers. The giant sunroof works perfectly and like the Rear-Facing seats, isn’t offered by Tesla any more, so it’s highly sought after.

***This is the original Tesla supercar with Insane Mode acceleration, and while newer Ludicrous and Plaid versions may technically have faster 0-60 times, the acceleration in this car will still kick your butt and drop your stomach, especially with Launch Mode. The Autopilot is version 1 which cannot be upgraded to Full-Self Driving, but it still works perfectly and really shines in highway driving, making long car trips a breeze. The infotainment MCU 1 was upgraded to MCU 2 in 2020 and it basically made it a new car again.

***The car will be sold with both of my sets of wheels – 21″ forged silver staggered Arachnid wheels with Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires (Tesla acoustic spec with noise-reducing foam) with 7/32″ tread left for summer driving, and 19″ silver Cyclone wheels with Pirelli Cinturato P7 All Season Plus II with 10/32″ tread left which I use for other seasons. One of the rear/wide Arachnids has some moderate curb rash which is currently hidden by the red Wheel Band rim protection pinstriping (the curb rash incident inspired the wheel bands); the other 3 are perfect. All 4 of the Cyclones have mild curb rash which is currently hidden because they have all been Plasti-Dipped anthracite grey. I have a few extra cans of Anthracite Plasti-Dip with a bottle of Dip Release that will convey with the sale in case you want to keep the Plasti-Dipped look, to deal with any touch-ups in the future.

***I love this car more than any other physical possession I’ve ever owned and have years of incredible memories with it, and it pains me to let it go, but I’m getting a Rivian R1T for towing and can’t justify keeping both. This is my daily driver so it will continue to accrue miles until it is sold, though not very many because I have a short commute and will plan on avoiding road trips going forward.

***Known issues to disclose, shown in pictures where possible:
– Minor rock chips on hood
– Small indentations in front skirt
– Minor scuff on right rear quarter panel/fender paint from a low-speed parking incident
– Minor rumble from front end under very heavy acceleration, usually only when car/motor is cold, has been checked out multiple times by Tesla service and is a known issue with P85D front motor mounts. Tesla reports no fix is needed, no safety or wear issues. Ways to minimize the problem are to warm up the car/motor by driving around quite a bit before launching, and make sure air suspension is in “low” before flooring it.
