This is interesting to me. I typically don't plug in my car till later at night, no good reason why. But I never take my keys into the garage. I just grab the cord, hit the button, and the charging door opens. Car stays locked. Now, I have to unlock the car to unplug - but plugging it in has...

Hah! It's all about quality, not quantity! Trust me, I lurk heavily, but typically don't post unless there's a need.

Here’s the plug.

Shipped from Canada. Would have been pretty happy if Tesla drop shipped.

Here's the eBay link. Give me a few and will post a picture of the plug. If I still have it in March @brkaus you're welcome to take it apart. I think a couple folks have indicated they may want, probably for similar reasons. NEW Tesla Motors Model S/X/3 Wall Connector 2nd GEN w 24' Cable...

So some pictures. I'm a little lazy and don't want to have to repack everything if I open it all up - so, didn't open it all up. But damn me if this thing does not look legit. The part number on the connector itself looks right for a Gen 2, even ending in an E. Really makes me wonder what the...

Spoke to the wall connector team just now. They confirmed what the parts thought - never sold by Tesla. No record of it anywhere. Didn't seem to care one way or another. Figured it was modified.

Yup. Hence my original post where I declined to plug it in to see if it worked. Maybe someone much more electrically savvy than me could pop it open and see if its legit.

It seems like a lot of work to counterfeit to be honest, but it also makes zero sense to buy a genuine wall charger, modify it to add a nema plug, create a new user manual, copy the packaging, etc. It's baffling to be honest. Here's a picture of the manual. They must be selling 100s of these...

Will take photos this evening of box, outside, perhaps inside. @HankLloydRight I don't know/think if it is a Genuine Gen 1. It looks like a genuine gen 2 with a nema plug attached. Well done from the outside to. Will take pics and if someone wants can figure it out.

Didn't get that far as I thought I'd have to return it. Maybe I'll open it up tonight and see what it looks like. If the insides are like the outsides, I think I'll be impressed.

So interesting enough - I bought a Wall Connector off of eBay - supposed to be Gen 2. When I received it and went to install, I was pretty confused - the wall connector had a NEMA 14-50 plug on it. Also the manual didn't match the old or new manuals online, and my local service center couldn't...

I picked mine up late September and financed full amount less $2,500 deposit via Alliant. Including sales taxes. No issues. Alliant stated they could finance 105% of sales price. Waiting on plates...

One thing that may or may not be important to you, if you are getting the premium package with premium audio and want XM/Sirius, you need the sunroof. No XM with glass roof.

@SoCal Jimmy Would appreciate info! Thanks in advance.
