Since the conversation around the Signature Series Model S and X Plaid has come up here on the forum, and since I was fortunate enough to get some time with this 2026 Tesla Model S Plaid, I thought I'd share it from the perspective of a CT owner and former Model S Plaid owner.
Long and short, the 2026 is much better put together than my 2021 (early Plaid) was. Tighter fit and finish, quieter, fewer squeaks. Probably should have noted this still has the front half-shaft issues so I guess that never got engineered out of the platform. In a few years, these 2026's are going to become the performance used car bargain of the century, you heard it here first
