Tesla called me last week. I have had a MS LR on order since July 1. They apologized for having to delay my VIN and noted the MS production has had a delayed due to “production quality control” .. hmmm. Perhaps some changes and QA.. I’m expecting an update in Feb

I have a Performance Ludicrous 2019 MX. So 0-60 in around 2.7sec.. its fun, but to be honest you hardly ever use it or come close to it in winter due to the cold pack. the new MX long range is still very quick <4sec 0-60, plus you get an extra 20 miles of range. quite honestly, for my next...

According to the local SC, the Raven suspension did fix a lot of the problems with the half shafts/shudder. I had this with my 2017 MX. My new 2019 Raven MX also suffers from slight shudder but depends on temperature and if I'm trying to replicate in front of the Tesla engineers :-) They told...

Very cool. Just received the same release. I have a June 2019 Model X and no 225Kw upgrade. I have the E battery pack so they must have done some changes on the cooling system.

I compared my MX 2017 March build to my new Raven MX June 2019 build. Same road, same speed. Measured with a dB meter. My 2017 was 71dB and my 2019 was 70dB

Thanks everyone. I think I figured it out. My new Raven is not plugged in constantly as we have moved to a shared charging building, so i suspect the batteries are always cold.

I have a 2019 Raven MX performance and now the weather is getting cooler I’ve noticed regen is incredibly weak. Almost non existent with temps around 50oF. My previous MX regen was way stronger and I wouldn’t get the dashed yellow lines until temps into the 30s. Anyone seen the same issue?

I had a MX 90D with the old 20” wheels but when ordering my new Raven MX I went with the Two Tone. I hadn’t seen them in person until I received the car. They are essentially the same wheel with parts painted black to give the effect of a larger wheel. From about 10 ft away they look great, but...

My car was build in mid June at the height of the rush. It’s perfect. No imperfections. No tape. It’s 10X better quality than my last Tesla.

For folks in the US, Tesla did give precious owners a little incentive on the performance variants in Q2. They were able to get the higher federal tax credit and doing the math, it still worked out cheaper if you purchased in Q2 by about $3K-$4k depending on paint choice. Either way, good news...

Took delivery of my MX Performance Ludicrous yesterday. Perfect. Pics attached. Only issue is that Ludicrous was not enabled by default. Common issues with Ravens. They are pushing a software update this week. Video coming soon as I have a list of stuff I want to walk folks through of all...

Placed my order May 31st. Just heard 5 minutes ago my VIN has been assigned. Not sure what that means in terms of delivery.

Did you order the two tone rims?

When did you order? I ordered my MX performance May 31st from Boston store and still no VIN. Hoping for end of June delivery
