Here are some unique details that shipped on just the first two Tesla Model S sedans (mine and Elon’s):

• The P85 badge is large, with “Phase Current Amplification” there for the engineers. Not sure what the red lines on the left are meant to represent. Close up photo below.

• The front and rear undercarriage spoilers are carbon fiber. I can see why that went to plastic — you can barely see them.

• The parcel tray is cream if you have a cream interior. They are all black now.

And some memories from the manufacturing line and first delivery. She is a beauty. You can hear the excitement in my voice taking delivery in this video from Tesla HQ.
