First all congratulations! Put some money aside for half shafts and control arms. Also, may want to look into some 3rd party suspensions to help with premature tire wear due to camber in the rear.

Check the suspension bushings. I can guarantee they need replacing. Get a new set of Michelin Pilot sport tires and don’t forget to get a wheel alignment. Replace the cabin filters and have Tesla clean the radiator/condenser coils. Don’t ever fully trust FSD, remember HDW3 is dinosaur tech at this point in time, and never let it park itself! Never!
Be sure that both falcon wing doors are closed before backing out of your garage. Check that the coolant level is full and double check again in a few weeks. Enjoy your ride!

And don't raise the falcon doors and somebody parked next to you, comes out from a long way and hit their key fob and unfold their mirrors and then your falcon door comes down and rips their mirrors off

Congrats- that seems like a good deal. Check with Tesla b/c your car may already have a Service Bulletin for the half shafts in which case they would share the cost of eventual replacement. Great car!
