    Still no VIN and my EDD went from the above to Jul 10 - Sep 4 overnight ... ! :oops: Sent a text in the App and was told no real news, but that I should continue to expect my EDD to hop around a bit, the new Order Agreements were auto-generated due to the price changes, and that they would...

    And they started charging for colors again for those of us with earlier orders that used to have that included. UR cars are USD 500 more, in sum, for example. Given that they are continuing to honor FSD transfer and negating the need for EAP, etc. no complaints from me as I’m still way ahead of...

    So, you mean saying something along the lines of: "Thank God I missed those. I detest any seude (sic) on seating surfaces." might be premature before we actually, you know, see and sit in actually shipping units??? :rolleyes:

    Totally with you on the width up at the top/shoulder wings, not so much on the bolsters not being Alcantara or something like that. Given the differences in the color/shade if you look closely, granted it could just be light changes given the different angles, I think they are either Alcantara...

    Nah... unless you drive naked. They are no harder to keep clean in my experience, even steering wheels and shift knobs that are constantly soaking up sweat and oil from your mitts. These will just be Alcantara bolsters vice the whole seats, which I've had a couple versions in the past. All you...

    What's hard is wading through all the unwarranted/unrequested opinions, egos, inflated heights/statures (seriously, the average U.S. male height is 5'9"; how in the world do so many of you break that ceiling and insist on talking about it? Oh, yeah, never mind. It's the internet), and senses of...

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    You’d think… but since they have been producing MSLRs with Cream with ‘24 VINs, I’m assuming there is something else going on. P’s have the different piping on the seats, so it’s not exactly a one for one. We’ll see eventually…

    Depends on your State laws/regulations. It is just the way they have to do things. It also isn't exclusive to Tesla. You'll not have a problem rejecting the car or getting your money back if it comes to that.

    It's the Cream... I'd say change your config, if it matters/doesn't matter... or remain patient. There is a reason no Cream has flowed yet....

    As far as I can tell no ‘24 MSP with Cream have been built or delivered yet. I’m a 23 Dec order with no VIN or other progress, have signed all the docs, everything up to date in the app and have my FSD and free SC charging miles “guaranteed”. Happy to keep waiting if the reason for the delay is...

    TX thang, due to our regulations about the "need" to buy from dealerships. The car has to be bought/paid for before it will come to the State. While the registration, etc. stuff has changed, this has not. I think the cars are still bought in/registered in CA before they head our way...

    Interesting. My '21 -150 KR with BC is really good. The only thing I don't like vis-a-vis FSD is the lane centering. It just feels strange to me, but at least it doesn't disengage with absolutely minimal pressure like Tesla's take... It being truly hands free, to me , is awesome. Especially in...

    Talk to an SA in person or message/call. If you want to cancel/hold, it is always best to try and do this with some human interaction.
