    Model S reservation made before refresh

    Canceled already. Was simply hoping to pass on the savings to a fellow member here, since I already have 2 Teslas. After talking to the SA, I did not want to go through the hassle, not even knowing if there will be any cost savings for a potential buyer.

    Model S reservation made before refresh

    So I just called a local sales advisor, who told me that the $2,000 discount for pre-refresh reservation is no longer available. So, I will be just canceling my reservation to get my deposit back.

    Model S reservation made before refresh

    I can call an adviser to find out. I will also ask the exact price for the car and how one can go about with the purchase for a different person for the registration.

    Model S reservation made before refresh

    Hi, I have a model S reservation made before the refresh was announced. I will not be getting this car, if someone would like to use this. I have read somewhere about getting a $2,000 discount for the refresh purchase. I will do this only if it is done in a legitimate/easy way and locally in...

    To MCU2 or not to MCU2?

    No. I asked about it, as some here were reporting that the tuner was included at no extra charge. It was $500 extra. I did not get it, as I don’t really listen to the radio. I definitely appreciate everyone’s input on this forum, as we go through the similar experiences of Tesla ownership.

    To MCU2 or not to MCU2?

    This is correct. Just upgraded to MCU2 this week on my 2017 model s with FSD and AP3 hardware (updated earlier to AP3 from AP2.5 for free since I had FSD). MCU2 upgrade cost was $1,500 plus tax, not $2,000.

    How bad are Falcon Wing doors?

    Agree with others. As long as common sense is used, no big issues. Once the doors are fully open, it is very easy to get in and out.

    Driving visualization temporarily degraded message

    Just picked up my car, and the problem is now fixed. Here is what I found out. This error message can come from a number of sources, including any of the cameras. Once I submitted the service request, they were able to remotely diagnose the problem (front camera in my case) and ordered the parts...

    Used Model X (Perf) vs. New Model Y (Perf)

    I find ride quality in my 2019 pre-raven X 100D to be much better than model 3 (owned for 2 years) or Y (test driven). In fact, it was big enough of a difference that I sold my 3 and got a pre-raven S instead. Much happier with the X/S combo now. I realize it may be subjective. Just my 2 cents...

    Driving visualization temporarily degraded message

    It happens for me on and off. Sometimes for days. Wondering if anyone got satisfactory answers after a SC visit. I have FSD with AP HW3. Currently on 2020.48.12.1. I made an appointment for 2/9. If no one has a good answer, I can report back after the SC visit.

    Anyone found out the reason for this message? I continue to get it on and off. Thanks.

    NHTSA asks Tesla to recall 158,000 [now 135,000] vehicles for eMMC failure. Voluntary Recall issued

    With the new horizontal displays for model s introduced today, I am wondering if there is a finite period during which MCU2 upgrade will be available. I would like to wait for the recall process to work itself out, but I am also wondering how long before the vertical display is completely phased...

    How to Sell Model S

    Agree with above. Sold my model 3 in 1 day after posting on Craigslist. Just make sure money transaction is done directly at the buyer’s bank. I had 0 response from this forum.

    Any current benefit to doing the HW3 upgrade for MCI 1 owners

    Same experience here. Maybe we are the lucky few, but I have experienced no issues thus far. 2017 model S 75 RWD September build with FSD. AP hardware 2.5 upgraded to 3.0 with MCU1.

    Model 3 vs S

    I realize this is a personal preference. For me, I prefer my 2017 model S75 RWD uncorked with air suspension over 2018 model 3 LR RWD. Much smoother and quieter ride. Shorter range does not bother me since I drive only locally. I don’t know how 2020 model 3 compares to 2018 model 3.

    SoCal EV rebate/registration question

    Hi everyone, I purchased my model s from Tesla on 12/3. I have 60 days from yesterday (I waited tuntil yesterday to apply so that I have extra time for my registration) to provide a copy of my permanent registration for the rebate. For those who have recently purchased your vehicle in SoCal...

    In Stock Demo Vehicle Condition

    My new inventory 2019 model x with “50 miles” for the odometer reading (standard for all new inventory cars) was flawless and has been great. I did inspect it carefully at the time of the pickup, though. Good luck!

    Model X in hot climates (Southern Calfiornia)

    You can put clear tint for the whole front windshield to block the heat.

    Model X in hot climates (Southern Calfiornia)

    Thanks for your post. I now own a black 100D X with white interior. I also had the same tinting done at Extreme Autowerks, and it has been great in sunny SoCal. It was also good to learn from other posts that 6 seaters have a second AC for the back of the car.

    2019 75d vs 100d : decision

    Cancelled the new order. Just took delivery of an inventory 100 D X with 3 miles on the odometer. Car is flawless. Built in April of 2019. Very happy with the deal (-$9,500).

    2019 75d vs 100d : decision

    With the recent price adjustment on the inventory long range (-$9,500), I got the same configuration (6 seats, white premium interior) long range for the exact same price ($90,500) as my new order of standard range. Pretty happy with the deal, although I was debating whether I should keep my new...

    Time of delivery

    I just did the same. $9,500 price adjustment on the inventory long range with identical spec was exactly the same price as the new standard range order for me. Too good to pass up...

    Model X in hot climates (Southern Calfiornia)

    Thank you everyone for the quick reply. I feel much better about keeping my order for the X now. Wow, no tinting in Phoenix is impressive. Are there other black model x owners doing fine without tinting? For those in OC, were you happy with Extreme Autowerks for your model X tinting?

    Model X in hot climates (Southern Calfiornia)

    Hi, I just ordered a standard range black model X with white interior with delivery estimate of May. I really like the look of the X in black, but I am concerned about the hot weather. I called a highly rated local tinting shop in Orange County to schedule an appointment, and the owner told me...
