I put a ton of miles on one this weekend out west.

I have to say it was having command issues it would just pop out of gear once in awhile. and other oddities such as the parktronic was not working right either

other than that the car drove better by than any car I have ever been in. fast as all hell and i thought it was beutiful. It got alot of strange looks as well! if anyone has any questions let me know

how were you able to drive one, and put a lot of miles on it. Did the dealer let you keep one for a weekend or something?, or.....[?]

Hopefully, the production models will be all sorted out.

did you rent one or something? i am still confused how you would be able to put lots of miles on one. Can you please explain[?][?]
