I got a X Plaid loaner from Tesla shop:

- The power is awesome, I've never been in a more than 1,000 HP vehicle (1050 to be exact). But it's just me that I still feel my AWD is faster.
- The sun visors are a serious joke. Whoever designed it should be fired.
- Handling is not that good, feel very light on road.
- The yoke is similar to CT but "why"? I have to turn the wheel like a normal car and it's not easy to make a couple of full circle turns with it.

There one question for expert here: how to bypass the speed limit of 85 MPH? It's not that fun when I tried to floor it and it just stops at 85 MPH. I pokes around but can't find anywhere to disable that limit.


BTW, I still like my AWD better even this loaner cost ~$105,000 with all the options in there.

I have the Model X (not plaid) and the AWD CT.

The Model X is faster for sure.
