    Spring release 2024.14 for 23-24 Model X

    Auto shift beta is awesome! Works perfectly for me and really gets rid of the annoying need to swipe the screen when backing out of garage or parking. Almost as good as a “stalk”!

    MXLR or inventory MXP with repairs

    It likely has the very annoying horn button vs. center pad horn that was launched on all 2024 model X's.

    2024 Model X Regen braking option

    The one pedal driving is one of the best features on my X. Why anyone wouldn't want to use it is beyond me. My wife hated it at first too, but after a bit of seat time it "clicked" and now she loves it.

    Apr 20, 2024 - Model X price drop by $2,000 !!! wtf...

    The tax credit comes right off the total owed at time of purchase. Mine was a cash payment, so it reduced my amount by $7500. I'd think if you financed it would simply reduce your loan amount; but I'm not sure if you can directly apply it as down payment.

    Strange experience. Got vin taken away.

    I'm not buying that "we gave away your VIN to someone else". I'm betting the car had a serious flaw or was damaged in transit so badly that they knew they couldn't pass it off on you. Count your blessings.

    Paramus NJ allow inspection before accepting

    It should have no bearing on the SC location. Simply tell them you're not paying until you see/inspect the car. I've bought two Tesla's and both times they wanted me to pay/sign first, but a simple "I'd like to inspect the car first" is all it takes. If they refused, I'd have walked away.

    March 2024 MX Delivery Info Share

    Very nice! I immediately cashed in some of those 10,000 loyalty points on their all-weather mats. The mats are very nice, made by WeatherTech.

    March 2024 MX Delivery Info Share

    Nice! I had a white X on order and then I switched to Ultra Red after seeing one. Luckily I made the switch about a day before the paint charge went into effect, so it was still a "tax edition". You'll love the red.

    March 2024 MX Delivery Info Share

    I would message your SA and mention that you saw the vehicle in the lot and noticed the door adjustment issue. Ask them to have it fixed before delivery or you'll be rejecting the vehicle.

    Ludicrous Mode or Acceleration Boost for Refresh Model X Long Range?

    I too thought they’d be locked down to 85, but I went a “bit” over that with no alerts or issues. The speed limit here on I84 is 75mph so traffic outside of town flows 85-90 easily.

    Ludicrous Mode or Acceleration Boost for Refresh Model X Long Range?

    I had a Plaid MX last week when my MX was in for PDR. I will say that the extra power was a blast. I was shocked they didn’t have Plaid mode locked down on a demo, but I guess they figured it sells more Plaids.

    Deliveries of $80k X?

    Zero vibration issues on my 2024 MX.

    Rim protector

    Sharpie works! I hit a few spots on my MYP wheels before trading it in on my X. Nothing was said, heck they didn’t even look over the car more than a glance.

    Ok go put clear PPF on top of Zaino Polish

    Zaino is good stuff, but I'm not sure that PPF will stick well on top of it. That's why they normally do PPF first and then ceramic coat over the PPF. Your right that Zaino is not ceramic, but it's a polymer sealant that makes paint slick. I'd reach out to Sal Zaino and see what they recommend.

    Deliveries of $80k X?

    They should. Any 2024 VIN should. My X is a Feb. build and had the new horn/camera wheel.
