One of my lenders gave an option to mail their bank check directly to me so I will probably go this route. Thanks for pointing out the arbitration clause. I don't anticipate any major problems with the car but the customer shouldn't sign away their rights. I will definitely opt out of...

Congrats on all those Teslas! This will be my first one :) What about the downpayment check? Do you think I would be able to submit a combo of downpayment check/wire plus 3rd party bank check on delivery day?

Thank you, that's reassuring to know. I pointed out I heard of others who were able to pay on delivery day and she said that must have been over two years ago. Maybe I appear naive to her but she stuck with her narrative that in her three years as a Tesla sales advisor, payment on delivery date...

I have reservations about paying in advance for this same reason but a local bay area, CA sales advisor was adamant full payment has to be received prior to delivery. She was insistent this was not possible in the last two years of her time working there. If this isn't true, I am disconcerted...

You mentioned you are able to bring a certified or loan check at delivery day. When was this? Would I be able to bring a check from the lender and a personal check (for the downpayment) on delivery day? I hope you all can help me out and confirm if what a local California sales advisor is...

You're lucky you get a March delivery date. I ordered late 2020 and took the hold off on Dec 1st and given EDD for last two weeks of December. Keeping my fingers crossed the date will be pushed into 2022 but I've mostly seen reports of changes to earlier dates for old orders.

Anyone in CA been able to make payment on delivery day this year? I hope you all can help me out and confirm if what a local California sales advisor is telling me is correct. I went to my local Tesla sales office in the bay area, CA to ask about the payment and delivery process. The sales...

I'd like to know too. MVPA and VIN are still showing on my account at Tesla's website despite a hold placed eight days ago.

Congrats and thanks for letting us know the new headlights have rolled out!!! This is one of the major updates I have been waiting for. Hoping to hear news this will be used in regular Y LR AWD version as well.

I asked my Tesla Advisor to add my relative's referral code the same day I placed the order in the showroom with her. The advisor said she would add the code at the end of her shift and that could only be done in the back of the showroom. She's been pretty incompetent, and a poor communicator...

For a long time, I tried to figure out how to differentiate the headlights just by looking at them too. Now that you point it out, I can't believe how I missed that!

I have asked my Tesla Advisor from day one to apply a referral code to my account but she never answers my requests for this. Therefore, I emailed the address you provided. Thanks for the info.

Keeping my fingers crossed these updates make it to us in a month or two. Modified my order in Nov 2020, declined end of year push later December Discussion on Model Y updates start at about the 2mins 30secs mark. Thanks for sharing the video! Makes me feel better about rejecting delivery in...

What an ordeal especially with only a few hours left to get perks like 1 year supercharging perks, and 3 months FSD! In the end, congrats you got a great product. I don't have a delivery date yet but my pick-up location is Dublin. Hoping, poor communication at the Dublin location isn't a common...

Oh yeah? Wish I had another energy provider besides PG&E. PG&E screws over the consumer again. Multiple electrical shutdowns in 2020 and now no stackable $800 rebate for their customers :(

I'm pretty sure Californians who received the automatic $1,500 CA Clean Fuel Rewards (applied to deliveries on and after 11/17/20) are ineligible for the PG&E rebate because those two programs cannot be stacked. It would have be nice to get both :) However, Californians can still apply for the...

I don't see the Plaid option on Tesla's website but maybe that's something that appears when I get a delivery date. I think payment works differently by state. For CA, payment is not needed for delivery date. As far as I am aware of, payment can be done at pick-up up right before accepting...

I've heard many users on this forum pay by Plaid but I'm not sure what service that is. Is plaid payment done through another website or app? Is this website the Plaid payment platform that is being referenced? Is payment relatively easy? I am going to hold off on payment until I have inspected...

Thanks for all the pics and going into more detail about the spoiler. I like it for the same reasons you pointed out. I'm getting the same MY in white paint and think the small black matte spoiler goes so well with the black matte chrome deletes on the car. The rims on the inductions are also...

The spoiler that comes with the Model Y Performance is the only one I've seen and really like the way it looks so will aim for something similar in appearance. I will go with black in a matte finish. Thanks for the info on fading of carbon fiber. I was not aware of that issue but it's helpful to...

What a nice surprise from your wife! My husband to get an aftermarket spoiler. I am trying to convince him to get the $150 Tesmanian spoiler but he's insistent on RPM's carbon fiber. His argument is that carbon fiber will last longer, looks better, and plastic will crack. I'm not sure if what he...

Hi Bruce, Tesla seems to be a Lafayette favorite driving through downtown. I'm renting an old place right now that requires significant electrical upgrades before I can charge from home. Unfortunately, the landlord won't help with the cost. I don't know anything about electrical work but am...

Thank you Bruce. Nice to get a welcome from someone in the same town :) I will not be home charging so would appreciate any local Lamorinda tips for EV charging.

Thanks for the welcome Merrill! Yes, I've learned so much from this forum but still have lots of questions. I am really excited about going electric and cutting off the gas pump.

Greetings from the East Bay Area, CA, Been lurking on the forums a few months now and finally created an account. My husband and I have been looking for an SUV-type of vehicle and the Model Y is the only car I am agreeable to. The Model Y will be our first electric vehicle and this forum has...
