Who needs a family sedan that can go from zero to 60 in 2.5 seconds? You do, of course.
The new P100D Model S is finally here.
Tesla CEO and founder Elon Musk made the announcement to a select few journalists in a private conference call on Wednesday.
The car’s specs are mind boggling.
The P100D comes equipped with a bigger — 100 kWh battery — that can launch the P100D from zero to 60 in a blazing 2.5 seconds in the so-called “Ludicrous mode”.
That’s faster than any car on Atlanta’s highways today!
The new battery also gives the P100D an extended range of 315 miles on a full charge.
As far as upgrades to the car’s exterior, the hideous nose cone that annoyed so many past (and future) Model S owners is gone.
Tesla enthusiasts had advanced knowledge of the new Model S as early as February.
A hacker on the Tesla Motor Club forum named “Jason” posted a string of code called a “hash” early one morning in March.
Another forum member did a reverse lookup on the hash string and discovered the new Tesla’s badge name “P100D”.
Jason also uploaded the badge image that he found buried deep within the car’s software.
The image sparked a frenzy of speculation and rumors about the new Model S.
Within a few hours, the world would know that a new Model S with a 10 kwh battery upgrade was on the horizon.
Later that day, Jason took to Twitter.com to complain bitterly that Elon Musk retaliated by messing with his car remotely.
Musk responded in a tweet the next day, denying the allegation.
The Model S can receive software updates over-the-air from Tesla headquarters.
Somehow Jason figured out how to intercept and view the software code during the over-the-air updates.
Engineers routinely embed “dormant” code in updates for later use.
They don’t encrypt the code because only a few hackers in the world have the knowhow to hack the code.
Musk explained that production of the new P100Ds would be limited due to the difficulty reworking the battery’s internal architecture so the battery can be cooled properly to prevent the cars from catching on fire.
“[It was] a very difficult development,” Musk said in a private call to reporters on Wednesday.
Both the P100D Model S and the Model X SUV (with 100 kWh battery) are available for order.
A fully loaded “Ludicrous mode” P100D Model S will set you back $134,500. While the Model X SUV is $1,000 more.
May have to get me one finally. I like maserati tho
I hope they have fixed the self driving mode in these new Telsas. A man was killed when he let his Telsa drive itself, on the interstate, he ran into the back of someone and he was killed.
On topic
OH ?I see this is a Corporate Blawg now ?
I like their navy and brown finishes. That’s all. ?? Oh and their door handles. Cute.
This is two days old, this what you giving us.?
I wouldn’t trust a car to park itself, let alone drive itself.
Looks sorta like that new new new Maybach that’s out.
It’s better than the post below.
I love this car, but I am a’scared of me running out of electricity.
This is a pretty penny too…see a few around Maryland Highways. They are now coming out with cars that can fly…can you imagine!??
That was just recent too. All things man made won’t be fool proof!
Nice! I just can’t see myself paying that much for something that deprecates in value
Just happy to freed from downstairs
The Pure White Tesla!!! be still my heart!
I see that virgo irritability…shining through! (sing like Cindy Lauper’s….”True Colors’)
Is this the one that went to sleep while driving?
Funny thing is that we should have been had all electric cars about 20 years ago. Thanks to the auto and petro industry being in bed with lawmakers, we’ve been held back. It should have been an entry level joint at this stage of the game.

======================
This was my first thought!
“Good hacking is a gift” LMBO
YES! I can! I been waiting for that since the Jetson days….
Only big purchases I make are investments only. If it’s not going to make me any money in the long run its pointless.
Brittany Spears is getting a LifeTime Movie!!!! Who gon play Shar and Columbus??
Oh that a Virgo thing….What about patience and never mind I’ll do it myself.
that’s a pretty penny!
Shar and Columbus will.
He went to sleep while the car was driving him.
Well if they can develop a fool proof systems for these non driving bamas I have seen down here in Maryland, I’d be ok with it, but these people can’t even ride bikes without incident. Even my brothers and sisters on 2’s have been afraid from people who drive on 4. Flying will be a hot mess. But they are looking to launch 2017… here ya go mam…

I don’t believe we will see those in our life time.
LOL….good one. They aint doing nothing else.
Right!! That is usually how I do it. Can’t account for the other Virgos…The September babies seem slightly different than the August ones…but I understand!
I don’t understand none of that??? but that car is BAD???. Don’t know if I would trust something that people can remotely operate????
We are closer than you think. I posted a Forbes article below. But I am sure there is more to this than meets the eye.
???. I’m watching. Love Britney!
give me an AUDI any day baby!!
With all the technology in cars today, you can hack most newer cars
My car old
I want a spyder so bad
IKR!
I don’t want to be in an accident AND crash to the ground. I’ll stay on land.
Mine too! Almost 10 years old. I don’t want a new one either. Mainly cause I don’t want a note that’s the same as a house note
savage!
Lol. We’re in the same boat! I feel the same way. But that thangs still kicking it and I’m going to ride it til the wheels fall off! It’s in great shape too.
You make investments? hi?? I have a project I’ve been desperately trynna get funded? What yo investment money look like? Is it Kdubb or *Sandra (long, *short but front like its long??)
*Bullock?
Maybe I just have relatively simple taste… but just give me a Honda Accord EXL V6 and I’m good!
Don’t know if I would trust something that people can remotely operate????
____________________
They found another way to initiate population control. They’re gonna remotely start running folks into trees and lakes and shyt. LMAO.
Can’t Truss It – Public Enema *giggles*
Columbus needs the money. Especially with a new wife and baby on the way.
Bams hand I’m September : )
Lmao. I can see that tho. Like Wayward Pines???
I feel the same way. I made my last car payment almost 2 years ago, and if feels good to keep that $300 a month in my bank account every month.
I want to keep it that way for a as long as possible, tempting as it is to get a fresh new ride.
The Audi A4 is sweeet.
lolol…(see that bamming of the hand tells it all…) BUT….I embrace my September Virgos, yall just different.
Them male September Virgos are fawkin batshyt crazy <3
lol-them girls too. (Shoot)
Hondas are good cars…even the old 1999 ones like mine…lol
Hey boo. I just put money in different accounts and stack my retirement account. Currently I’m saving my business.
My money shawt as fawk and I make no secret bout it lol.
whoever this lady is she looks like a possessed demon
“Good hacking is a gift”
Let the church say Amen. Can I get a witness?
Mine is 8, planning on keeping it and copping the 2017 EXL V6 early next year. Love those
LoL
but what would be the purpose of hacking into a car….is it to steal it or what?
This ain’t nothing but a souped up Saturn…
damn.
*dead*
Bye ?
Dub21 daddy still got that 1993 Honda with what we think has 400k miles. Odometer stopped working back at 320k lmaoooo. He still drives it on occasion.
???
Possibly track it.
You know I will hack something in a smooth minute and have folks re-evaluating their life AND their security questions.
Actually I got that from a August Virgo, I want call her NAME/Font. I’m actually quite reserved unless you disagree with me. I like to win, but I’m willing to say I’m wrong and will say sorry even when it’s not my fault. I’ve typically a push over and often way to too nice.
#IshThatPeopleWithLongMoneySay I ain’t mad. Only the fake like to floss??
Cackles
I love it??
don’t let the CIA/FBI/IRS see your comment..lol
I know ?? again bye
They keep a high value, too. Acuras keep a high value too, but they’re nothing but luxury Hondas anyway. LOL
NEW POST PLEASE…In the meanwhile
They hopefully have more to worry about than me hacking into dudes iClouds, phone voicemail, and reading folks Gmail lol.
CHases you down with Ray J scooter, but falls off laughing before I catch you…
Fast & Furious
My husbands Acura got up in 6 seconds and that shit was scary and it was like a 2014 – I can’t imagine this one right here!
Y’all tell me about it. I’ll keep driving by environmental destroying Mid Size SUV that is neither good on gas or my neck!
whuuut! you don’t like talkin bout cars?
Chose of hair color NAHHHH?
Kermit Green
good gracious.
And the insurance is higher… and they require premium/midgrade fuel.
So yeah, the Honda EXL V6 is pretty much an Acura, but cheaper.
Girl, say that…..No JOKE. folks get by me, and I’m like YOU DON”T WANT NONE of this MDX. I occasionally throw up decues if I feel flirty.
Nothing I’m not going to ever Buy
And High Speed Rail throughout the country.
You save gas money though.
yep!
my first car was a dodge aries, then I moved on to a pontiac, then a Jeep, then a nissan, then a acura, now I’m in a honda….hopefully, my next is AUDI, but these Dallas roads are horrible
That’s my Daddy and his damn Lincoln Towncar and Al Bundy and his “Dodge” LMAO
Maseratis are raggedy.
did that thing happen? Didn’t hear you sing Congratulations…Not that you would.
I got tears, just manged to type this….
The car failed to distinguish a white tractor-trailer crossing the highway against a bright sky.
Cries
That is a virgo across the board because that is me all day. I find September Harsh and critical. Now the kicker is, we all are like that but it is more intense with September. I think the things that separate the intensity in a sun sign can be the difference in the months and boy vs girl. I have see most September Virgos with Tempers. Just like i see September Libras that are softer, but the October Libras are beasts. It could only be my observation…We have the same traits but yours is (now I am going to insert an echo effect right here….)
X TEN….TEN….TEN…TEN…ten…ten….ten…te
Bitch that was not Kermit Green. It was Shrek Green.
The technology has been around since , Tesla discovered it in the 1800’s. Truth be told we shouldn’t be paying for internet, gas, electricity etc.
You know since we had the discussion on what color paint that was that Khaki and Mr. had…that I am color blind. Im sorry. I got Vomit Green and Kermit Green mixed up. My bad *cries at the petty nature of this posting*
I dont know. By the time it was supposed to have happened I had met new dude and had stopped caring. I do still wish that he has the most horrible rest of his lying ass life as possible.
Is it still green? She had green hair at the wedding? #TackyShit They deserve. Smdh.
His neck still broken after that train crash were no one got hurt but him. * rolls eyes* ???
Amen!
See below. Bout early June I stopped caring. That was fast huh? April/May I was bout ready to murk folks and by June I was like fawk ya. *snorts*
Shar and Columbus schedule is free.
*weeps*
Mine too.
Who wants to see them?
You right! especially in these growing metropolitan areas with terrible traffic. Too many people on the roads
I hear they werent even paying for gas in Iraq
… or disable certain features , like the airbag.
You make a strong point.
Can you imagine being a teenager with this car and not needing gas money?
I remember getting high in my Riviera and hopping on 495 and going anywhere, no GPS.
I’ve ended up in Atlantic City, Virginia Beach, etc.
See some say Libra start on the 22.
Lmao
Like wise. Even if I could afford it…Wouldn’t bother…Not in need of a penile substitute…I’m confident with my big, thick, 4 inch damager??
Dub21 daddy done had about THREE cars since that Honda. Him and that Accord they never PART. Its their fam go to whenever someone is down on their luck and need a car to damn drive lol. His niece (and hell she like my niece too) was last one to push it. She came over and picked Dub21 up. I was like your daddy outside in the Honda. She said that aint my daddy lmao. I looked out and DubNiece was waving at me
Lucky you. I road the bus as a teen? We was po?
Hell to the the naw…are y’all serious…why would.. nevrm
Should’ve hit some packs.
I packed plenty of fudge as a teen??
Ditto.
I loath male Libra’s. I can hang with the women but not the men.
that company has had too many red flags with just about all models of the Telsa brand. Buyer be warned.
I love my full size gas guzzler…why I have one with only one kid is beyond me…
LMAO…
We smoked out a cab driver before and got him to drive us to Ocean City from Annapolis.
This ngga pulled over halfway and said, he was too high and had to call his brother to take us the rest of the way.
My plug was in Annapolis, so that worked out.
I’ll take mine in silver please
I’m a Libra and I love other Libra women, but some Libra men just grate my nerves
You was a rolling stone huh …
why you don’t like Libra men like T.I. and Lil Wayne?…LoL
Effin Bren.
I come back to this comment and that gravi, LOL.
Hi:)
Last one was EXL. Current one is Touring. May pass on to Feline14
Good times
My sis bought her Acura 2 yrs after I bought my Accord & they have same features…
Libra men tend to be controlling, demanding, mean hypocrites. That explains T.I.’s behavior. As a Capricorn I attract a lot of them and they all want to Netflix and chill me, pick my brain, and turn me into a long suffering girlfriend.
Harley the Virgo checkin in ? #920
I’m just saying that was a creative way for kids to share a ride and get around.
We bought that fat ngga a bucket of chicken, when he got the munchies… We were good to go.
That’s probably what did him in though.
I’m not going to tell you what happened when I got down there. It was like something out of ‘Hangover’.
I have Libra brother and he ain’t shyt so I understand.
I used to live in Atlantic City and left there to join the Navy…my first duty station was in Virginia Beach…those were the days.
I haven’t laughed out loud all day, but that made my day.
Hey cutie?? Welcome back, we missed ya??
Me and my homegirls stunted in a Dodge Mirada. That thang FLOATED! We use to be EVERYWHERE!
???
???
LOL..crazy ass
And the insurance is higher… and they require premium/midgrade fuel
^^^^^^^^^^
Folks dont eem take stuff like this into consideration. Why I DO NOT KNOW. I had ONE car that took Premium and never AGANE this side of LIFE will I EVER do that mess.
I feel ya. I could think of much more to dump 100k into. a rental property, but like the song says, its ain’t tricking if you got it.
Going to VA Beach probably next weekend (my two aunts are there) and Atlantic City in Oct. to love on a slot machine lol
I remember stopping at a 7-Eleven in Newport News on the way to Virginia Beach and was thinking “let me get back on the road, LOL, this is the hood.”
One I didn’t know about.
You ain’t never lied. That 93 will have you hurt ?
OH MY gawd, that made me holler out loud.
Dub made me laugh first….But you can probably make me laugh more.
You ever go to St. Micheals
My Ex is a Libra. I have 2 Libra male freinds they both like me. One assumes because we’ve been friends for years I shouldn’t have a problem sleeping with him, and he deserves it. Huh? The other got mad because I took to long to notice he had a thing for me, so now he’s dating a girl he barley likes just because. I can’t.
I can’t imagine buying a car that needs premium fuel. That extra 25/30 cents a gallon for the next 8-10 years… ouch!
I don’t worry about shit I can’t afford, so ummm….yeah
It was during that damn time when REGULAR was $4 a gallon too. Girl.
They are entitled pricks. The sun rises and sets on their ass.
Some cop cited us for being on the beach afterhours.
I can remember balling that ish up and throwing it in the trash like it was yesterday.
I was like “afterhours, that’s what I’m here for.”
Too young and dumb, to know that the beach had hours…
YES! YESSSSSSSSS
LoL….hell naaaw!
Ppl really be having a need for speed not me tho I love my life
So we should have a meet up at the new MGM opening by end of YEAR
meet up spring 2017, I be there the first week.
damn.
Newport News mess around if ya want.
Nah. It was a nice spot?
They dont call it Bad News for damn no reason lol
I remember those days. A buddy of mine had a Dodge Durango, and in NYC (where everything is more expensive already..) it was costing him $55-$60 every time he filled up his tank!
oh yeah dem two friends right there are some psychos…lol
It really nice, you check it out.
Calmer than Annapolis
Eastern Shore, like Chesapeake Beach?
I dont like all that fast driving….I wanna get there SAFELY. Never been an adrenaline junky/chaser like that.
Everyone here has a commute. The area with all the jobs (RTP) is 30 minutes plus either direction to Durham or Raleigh. My commute at that time was 45 minutes on a good day. When I say I used to be on the highway straight in tears?
Friend of mine had premium gas vehicle. Every trip to the gas, her ass ready to put in that regular gas lol. Told her it was gonna cost her more in the long run effin around with that regular shmegular gas.
Yea AC
Yes! They never feel the need to explain themselves and everythings your fault. It’s either there way or the highway.
*goes to look it up*
Applaud your use of long suffering
+1
Dude aint never been. And has a cousin who just last year moved close to there bc the girl he married from that area. I was like welp. Thats the fall trip then lmao.
My momma is there right now. Lol
Lmaoooo.
I don’t have the need for speed bug but I like to get to my destination quickly. So if you do the speed limit, get the fugg out of my way (Ludacrust voice) ??
That’s what I need. A weekend trip.
They don’t call it Bad News for nothing.
Why I said this for I saw you post lol
I hate to see people lose they job, but Sandra can we get some new interns. They not working out

It’s dragging on like a scene from a Tyler Perry show.
well then swing on by so I can take a spin in it….shouldn’t take you no time at all to get here…..lol
I’m glad I’m not the only one who noticed that. I watched a few episodes of the show with Marcus and Tasha and I’m just like MOVE ON ALREADY!!! I don’t see how people watch hose shows, but whatever.
Like one of those ski trips, where nobody really skis or just sight seeing?
I’m getting Sandra this for chrih’ma.??
Them freeze curls gon come unraveled messing with me. Lol
?????
Nggas with all those big body cars, Caprices, Crown Vics, etc. Didn’t go anywhere. They don’t know…
I just yelped.
Naw. We part of the same place. We part of the same TIME
Smart fu** ! Rich people and there toys! Smh listen it’s just a status but other articles published snow, if it breaks your screwed. Why buy a car so hard to repair? Because u can?
New boo not gonna let her drive if she come lol. He crazy about Mama Dub. He was like I LIKE that lady. And why come to find out his deceased mom and MamaDub…got the same BIRTHDAY?

*dead*
Awwwww, is there love in the air between you two????? *grabs popcorn*
This is me in Horseshoe. Most I did was snow tube lol.
*starts blushing* yeah
New post: That dead horse done been resurrected .
I watched his new one, Too Close To Home, and it was horrible! It’s about a family living in a trailer park and their sister who works at the White House. Funny thing is the White House looks like it’s a part of the trailer park, the set is that tacky.
What the hell you talking about lol…You been puffing tuhday ??
This will be the only make or model I drive.
The best or nothing.
You VA?
I literally drove these models until the wheels fell off. Great cars all day.
?? me and my bff bud is coming
I’m talking about how everybody just drinks and partys at the lodge.
It is the eastern shore, but not Chesapeake Beach…I’m a tidewater chic…So my point of direction is skewed.
You should also be aware of when your sign is in different planets, this has an effect on your actions and influence you + those around you. Virgo was in Venus for 4 weeks its ending right now. This was a good time for love. I was almost irresistible to women. As well as True Virgos (ones who exhibit 90%-100% of Virgo traits) are ones who are born between Sept 16th-19th. because thats when the earth is acually in the constellation virgo. Google helps!!
Harley u finna run me off the road chile??
Amen Libra amen ?
Aw hell… why did i meet me love!?
I was well withing the 4 weeks time span for being irresistible and i missed my freaking window! I want my 4 weeks back!
I’d always considered myself a true Virgo because of the traits i have personally. As an August 24 day, I have always felt well within my right to claim truth because I made it past the cusp mark. August 23 will always go down as “Are they Leos?” and many other signs that fall in between on those mid month dates will carry a trait of both signs. There is nothing Leo about my azz.
No I won’t. You’ll just feel your car shake a bit ??
*checks rear view ?*
Advertise these Cars like they’re Giving them Away Smh
