    Window tint headache on new 24 M3, Any advice?

    Agree to have them remove the tint but only on the condition you will sit there watch and videotape to ensure they don’t damage the vehicle any further.

    FYI - Elon announced yesterday on Twitter/X that all US owners whose Tesla are capable of FSD will get a free one month trial starting sometime this week.

    2/29 Build Model X Delivered 3/13!

    Where did you get She’s a beaut. Can I ask where you got your PPF done? I just had my windows ceramic tinted. Debating on doing the windshield still. But almost certainly doing the PPF.

    March 2024 MX Delivery Info Share

    Lots of people, myself included, have already taken delivery of post-3/1 built Model Xs. No ambient lighting or front bumper cams. That doesn’t mean they won’t come any day now, but it has nothing to do with 3/1 build dates. That much we do know for sure.

    March 2024 MX Delivery Info Share

    Call me naive, but I don’t get the impression it’s some elaborate hoax or rumor. The info was pretty specific. I think everyone just underestimated how many old bumpers and related parts Tesla still had to work through first. If I had to bet, those changes will start sometime next quarter...

    No idea. When I get car tinted soon I will ask.

    March 2024 MX Delivery Info Share

    Just picked it up this afternoon! There was some blue paint on the interior door jamb and next to the seats, but they fixed it right away and I accepted. Car looked good to me. Of course, as soon as I got home, my wife noticed that the rear seat (driver’s side) wouldn’t recline. So I...

    March 2024 MX Delivery Info Share

    Man, I need one of you guys to come pick up my car with me today. I saw those pics and was like “sweet car, looks good.” I didn’t notice anything. But now that everyone is pointing it out, yeah, I guess I see how the two doors don’t line up properly.

    March 2024 MX Delivery Info Share

    My understanding is that the Month and Year it was built are listed on the sticker on the driver's door jamb, but it doesn't provide the day. I asked Tesla through the app for the build date and they sent it to me within 24 hours.

    Deliveries of $80k X?

    If it's truly perfect (according to my amateur inspection), I am accepting the vehicle for sure. Even though I think the updates are coming--unlike some *cough* super popular naysayers on here, *cough* --I don't care about them enough to wait. I'm too impatient. But if there are any...

    Deliveries of $80k X?

    You may be right, but I doubt it. I think it's just a matter of time. I doubt people would go through the trouble of impersonating Tesla employees or fabricating text messages just to be "right" about something online. Actually......I guess that happens all the time. If RBG ambient lights...

    Just told by Tesla my Model X was built 3/6.

    Deliveries of $80k X?

    Further update: was just told my Model X was built on 3/6. I won’t hold my breath re: updates. Does this mean my VIN was likely rejected by one of you guys already? Haha.

    Deliveries of $80k X?

    Update: VIN received 3/15; delivery scheduled for 3/19. Requested build date in Tesla app messaging, no response yet. Will report back on 3/19 if if has RBG ambient lighting or front bumper cam. Not 100% sure yet I will reject VIN if it doesn’t, but leaning strongly towards accepting the...

    March 2024 MX Delivery Info Share

    Update: finally contacted today with a VIN assignment and asking me to confirm that I understand no USS so no Autopark/Summon until Vision is squared away. EDD updated to 3/16 - 3/25. YES! Who should I contact re: build date? I wasn't working with a sales associate.

    Deliveries of $80k X?

    I ordered a Tax Special the same day as him, 2/21, and still no VIN for me here in CO :(

    March 2024 MX Delivery Info Share

    Thanks for sharing! Yes, the “Tax Edition” just means the base configuration that keeps the MSRP for the vehicle under $80k and thus eligible for the tax incentive (regardless of whether the particular buyer will qualify). ;)
  22. D

    March 2024 MX Delivery Info Share

    Sorry if you already said, but what configuration did you order? It seems like folks ordering the Tax Edition are waiting much longer to get VINs than everyone else.
  23. D

    March 2024 MX Delivery Info Share

    I know there's no true rhyme or reason to all of this AND that these matters are clearly affected by region. But it's still a little weird that you ordered more than 2 weeks before ClearStealth yet he already received his VIN and you didn't. And both of you ordered the Tax Edition and are in...

    Another Direct Model X vs. Rivian Comparison: My Personal Experience

    FWIW - the only issue i’ve had since moving from ICE to EV when driving my wife’s 2024 M3LR is that a couple of times I have pressed the park button on the right stalk when I meant to press the windshield wiper fluid button on the left stalk. One time I was moving slowly enough the car actually...

    Dont be like me and try to cancel and reorder for a new VIN

    Sorry that happened to you. Totally sucks. However, though I'm sure it's not much of a consolation, we very much appreciate your sacrifice as our collective guinea pig. I was previously on the fence about rejecting my VIN, going on hold, and/or canceling my order and re-ordering since I have...

    Deliveries of $80k X?

    After reading your post and seeing the pics of Mr Dmitry’s stealth grey, i’ve decided i’ll probably just accept my Model X whenever it’s ready and not cancel if the lighting/front bumper cam isn’t ready yet. I don’t want to wait. ;)

    Deliveries of $80k X?

    That wasn’t the “narrative” I was setting forth at all, nor did I put any words in your mouth. Did you or did you not say that you weren’t sure exactly when the upcoming changes would be implemented? Because that is all I attributed to you. Are you now saying you DID tell us precisely when...

    Deliveries of $80k X?

    Ahh, I see. Sorry. I have seen multiple people post today claiming to have either taken delivery of their March-built vehicles or to have at least confirmed that their March-built vehicles didn’t have the front bumper cam. So it doesn’t seem that odd to me. But i’ll take any glimmer of...

    I haven’t seen one yet. I’ve been searching on TMC and Reddit nonstop.

    March 2024 MX Delivery Info Share

    Yeah, I saw one post (that was written after I wrote this) from a guy who bought one manufactured on 3/5. Total bummer. Maybe the changes will come later in the month. If Tesla waits until next quarter, I may get screwed as my EDD still says 3/17-4/21.

    Deliveries of $80k X?

    And? Your post supports what I said in my reply; it doesn’t contradict it. So why are you downvoting my reply? What is the part of my reply you disagree with? Another poster said he “highly doubts” the person sharing his FIRST HAND experience with HIS OWN VEHICLE actually knows the...

    Deliveries of $80k X?

    What is your high degree of doubt premised on? A Teslascope story that Mr. Teslascope himself said he wasn’t sure when the changes would be implemented? I’ve been obsessed with this topic, as I have a pending Model X order myself, and nothing I’ve seen on TMC, Reddit, or Twitter has...

    March 2024 MX Delivery Info Share

    Perhaps. But i’m choosing to be an optimist. Lol. On the bright side, no one has come in here yet and said they picked up their post-3/1 built Model X and it didn’t have the new rumored features. It is still very possible that Tesla was working through existing inventory and the new 3/1...

    March 2024 MX Delivery Info Share

    He can correct me if I’m wrong, but I think mr-dmitry was suggesting that it is likely his Model X will NOT have the rumored front bumper camera that was supposedly beginning to be installed on vehicles built after 3/1/24 because of the message he received about autopark and summon not working...

    Deliveries of $80k X?

    They used to say the cameras looked different (reddish tint and less angled). But is there really any doubt? Haven’t all Model Xs built in the last few months been HW4?
  36. D

    March 2024 MX Delivery Info Share

    Gotcha. FWIW, my wife’s 2023 Model 3 LR with EAP does not have USS sensors or a front cam. Teslavision is crap still, but it does “sort of” detect front obstacles when parking. But her autopark and smart summon is still totally unavailable.
  37. D

    March 2024 MX Delivery Info Share

    I hope I’m wrong, but that claim and pic was from a year ago (Feb 2023) and I believe it was debunked already. Teslascope’s replies for that Twitter post acknowledged needing to vet things better in the future.
  38. D

    March 2024 MX Delivery Info Share

    By “non-functional” do you mean the doors won’t open fully and autopark/smart summon won’t be available yet? Or are there other things that you have in mind that won’t function properly?
  39. D

    Deliveries of $80k X?

    If you asked about build date and this is the response you got, I would call that a “non-answer.” If it were me, I would write back and ask (a) what the build date is for my vehicle and (b) what does “hard match” mean.

    Deliveries of $80k X?

    Congrats! I ordered the same car, same day (Colorado). No VIN yet. EDD still says 3/17-4/21. I’m jelly. Can’t wait to see if others have front cameras and RBG ambient lighting. 🤞🙏
  41. D

    Deliveries of $80k X?

    You never know. But I ordered five days before you and my EDD already changed to 3/17-4/21. So my guess would be it is more likely yours will arrive in April.

    Deliveries of $80k X?

    Very similar boat. Ordered a tax special on 2/21/24 (Colorado). EDD now says 3/17-4/21. Paying cash and trading in a vehicle. It would be AMAZING if I could thread the needle to get those bonuses AND the ambient lights/front camera upgrades. Fingers crosses!

    Model x deliver estimate

    Interesting. I guess geography really does play a (small) role in delivery timing. I am in Colorado. Ordered a tax edition on 2/21/24. Initial EDD said Feb-March like you, now it says 3/17-4/21. So it looks like my window is slightly narrower with a slightly earlier end date than you...

    2023 Model 3 without USS and proximity functionality [park assist / summon not available]

    I hardly ever honk. Except that 1 in a million times it saves me from an accident. So yes, i’ve tried it.

    2023 Model 3 without USS and proximity functionality [park assist / summon not available]

    Exactly. She told me. “Thank goodness you honked or I would have hit you.” Pretty definitive. Unless you think that admission, which was contrary to her own self interest, is somehow unreliable.

    2023 Model 3 without USS and proximity functionality [park assist / summon not available]

    Quack. That study doesn't conclude what you think it does. Quack. (It analyzed how drivers chose to react; not whether those choices were effective.) Let's put this to bed, shall we: your personal experiences cannot prove that something NEVER happens (i.e., b/c something has not happened to...
