    Prediction: Model X price will be reduced to $78K in January 2024

    If I had purchased this 22” MXP in cash, and sold it used today, I would have lost about $60k. That’s assuming I can sell a used MXP for 88k but that has now changed. I wager these will drop into the 60-70k range now. But since it’s a loan, with interest and maintenance costs already...

    Model X price cuts- yet again

    Used refresh MXPs used to hover north of 100k, and recently in the 90’s. Nobody is going to buy the same exact car, with 10-20k miles and less tech for more money then a brand new one. A new MXP (equipped like my $147k plaid) is 97k. How does residual value not get impacted?

    Model X price cuts- yet again

    My ‘22 X plaid has now dropped by $50k in MSRP value. Elon is creating enemies faster then friends at this point and he’s gotta be careful or he’ll lose the people who propelled him here.

    Windshield Wiper Fluid is not dispensing

    This may sound crazy, but is this the first time you tried to use them? My wiper tube that connects to the pump was disconnected upon delivery of both my ‘22 MYP and again on my ‘22 MXP. The tube was visible when opening the hood and I just reconnected it to the wiper arm. Problem solved.

    Tesla X Plaid sad owner advice

    I experienced something similar when upgrading from a ‘22 MYP to a ‘22 MXP. For the first month I couldn’t find a comfortable seating position, and used to complain about it all the time. I converted from a Range Rover Velar. In addition to getting absolutely hammered on MSRP reductions (a...

    Refreshed 2021+ Model X and Model X Plaid waiting room

    That’s the funny thing, isn’t it - I think we would all love a bug/feedback reporting system that worked, it would make all the current buyers feel as if they were beta testing his current cars. Sharing feedback at that scale could be incredible. Shame

    Refreshed 2021+ Model X and Model X Plaid waiting room

    Perhaps, but we’ve all been waiting a while and there hasn’t been any Birds Eye views added yet. That blind spot in the front could use a camera imho. I’ve had my ‘22 MXP since July last year and I have the LiDAR sensors, I still believe that having a camera on the front bumper would be a game...

    I did - no visible front camera unfortunately.

    Refreshed 2021+ Model X and Model X Plaid waiting room

    Saw a new MXP at the dealer, interesting updates! Notice the rear bumper now has chrome letters, on top of the matrix headlights.

    Experience with lemon lawyers?

    Several years ago, I processed a BBB claim on a new corvette I had purchased. The next morning I got a call from GM corporate offering to buy the car back or get a new car under the lemon law framework. Worked for me, perhaps give that a try?

    MX Plaid - Loss of (Horse)Power?

    So I got my MXP in July of 22 and I’ve noticed a significant change in Low-end torque from the day I bought it to today. The feeling I once described as “trying to control a pissed off bull” when accelerating, also came with the car slightly lifting the front end and wheels chattering was so...

    Waiting Room: Model X Plaid Only

    Forgot to update everyone. I took delivery last week 7/25 on my white/white MXP with 22” wheels. I still have my ‘22 MYP which had Matrix LEDs headlights so I plan to record a few comparison videos and do a proper write up. If anyone is interested in some of my first impressions please DM me...

    what's the waiting time after you get back to the line?

    I just went through this and learned a lot about the process from a very helpful associate. Here is what I was told. You get 2 chances to ‘accept delivery’ Once your first VIN is assigned, and you chose (for whatever reason) to deny delivery, they recommend you simply not schedule a delivery...
