    Let me see how much to get the tires off and disposal fees.

    $1000 for set of Gemini with TPMS and covers +/- Cincinnati

    They are still available. You want just the rims (no tires, no tpms, no covers?)

    Red Model Y Waiting Room

    Yes, they were able to fix all the issues. I even had some wind noise that came up - took a ride with a tech and he was great. He found an issue with my speaker that I didn't notice, fixed the wind noise, and saw that the dash was out of alignment because my door was 2mm too high, adjusted that...

    Red Model Y Waiting Room

    Unless you're buying FSD, or hoping to resell it for someone who wants FSD, I wouldn't worry about it.

    Red Model Y Waiting Room

    Assuming you mean of our first model Y - I feel like a traitor posting a white car on here... (the car needs to be cleaned)

    $1000 for set of Gemini with TPMS and covers +/- Cincinnati

    Would prefer not to ship, but willing to meet at a decent midpoint. These came off our 2020 Model Y. Some curb rash and scratches from the covers, which have been on the entire time. Tires can be included or I can pull them off. Tires will need to be replaced. Great option if you want a set of...

    Red Model Y Waiting Room

    PPF for $2000 for everything painted is a very good deal, assuming they do a quality job. Do they tuck the corners? Remove / replace emblems? I don't think you need to tint the hatch, it's dark already. I wouldn't tint the windshield. I just wanted the windows to match.

    Red Model Y Waiting Room

    Depends what you're having done, and their experience/quality, but that sounds about right. I had the full frontal + headlights + front 2 windows tinted for about $2k+ tax. We didn't do this on our other Model Y and the bugs/rocks have caused some damage which made us take the leap on this one.

    Red Model Y Waiting Room

    For those of you curious out installing ppf... after a week, I'm glad I did. A car merged in front of me on the highway and was flinging all sorts of mud and sounded like rocks at my car. I passed them and their front wheels and fenders were covered in mud. Sprayed the front of the car off with...

    Another scammer - VicH (review before you try to buy anything)

    If anyone is interested in purchasing from Jersey50, he is legit. Described the wheels perfectly, great pictures, fair price, quick shipping, excellent packaging.

    I did purchase induction wheels from him, just arrived today. Would highly recommend him, if he has something you like.

    She's good looking. Our of curiosity, does the wood/silver trim across the dash align with the doors?

    I think I might too... replacing gemini's with inductions on Thursday - once I recover from that $ hit, I'll look into the boost. I heard we can 'return' it after 30 days?

    Any LR owners thinking of purchasing the acceleration boost? Red cars are supposed to go fastest, right?

    Red Model Y Waiting Room

    I believe so. The nice delivery lady said to submit a request and she would file something on her end too. The door being off a little bit didn't surprise her. The seal being shoved in - she said she never saw that before and walked around to other cars, the only 2 to have it were the 2 red Y's...

    Red Model Y Waiting Room

    The front 'grill' of the Y is bug/rock/chip magnet. Chunks of paint are missing from our 2020 Y. When we bought the car I wanted to get PPF then and wifey wasn't about it - on this car she told me to get it. It's expensive everywhere, but the place near me is highly regarded (had some noice cars...

    Red Model Y Waiting Room

    Picked up Clifford, the Big Red Car today. Overall, very good shape. Had a few small issues that I have already submitted a service request for. There was another red Y being delivered next to mine, and that one had the exact same problems with 2 and 3. 1) Dash trim not aligned on drivers side...

    Rim Repair Shop in Cincinnati?

    My wife didn't care what color her car was - we went with white cause it was 'free'. We had a red loaner and both of us were like - wowza, that's good lookin'. So now we'll have red and white... maybe we'll get blue next in honor of the IRS.

    Red Model Y Waiting Room

    Wow this is huge - I bet Tesla is going to start raising prices again. Getting the full $7500 on a Perf (or any Y) is slick, especially one decked out the way you want. Did the IRS listen to 'customer feedback' or did Ford and Chevy lobbyists complain that Tesla prices were too low and their...

    First of all - you rock. Amazing response, thank you! As you can tell, I'm pretty fired up, so once bitten twice shy. I admit my post is rather negative, but I am 0/1 on here (my own fault for falling for it). Reco's = recommendations. What happened: Pretty much what I said under 'even if...'...

    If you post 'looking for X' and someone messages you directly... even if they have an older account. Even if they have made posts... Even if they seem really nice... Even if the a reverse google image search comes back clean... Do not purchase. VicH and I chatted for awhile, messaged each...

    apologies whose tires these really are, if someone is sending these images - they are a scammer. Hopefully Google reverse image search will find these.

    Looking for induction wheels - Cincinnati +/-

    I have looked at the TSVs, they look close to the inductions. I think keeping the 19s would be good for comfort too. Debating if I just keep the Gemini’s and powder coat them, maybe powder coat the calipers the same as the car (red) or get the inductions. Do you feel a large different between...

    Looking for induction wheels - Cincinnati +/-

    Someone on this board messaged me - however, he has stopped responding, so he might be a scammer - watch out for VicH or anyone who randomly messages you. So, I'm looking again, if anyone in my area has any available.

    Wow, you are playing the Tesla lottery... and winning (in a weird way). I'm sure you pissed you didn't get the car last year, but by waiting you have saved a ton. You'll get the car... someday...

    Red Model Y Waiting Room

    Yes - which is why I'm nervous that the IRS will use MSRP at time of pickup/delivery/any time other than when we placed our order... I mean, I like the red but i don't like it for $8500 more than another color.

    If it's a performance, I wouldn't worry. Check the VIN and see if it's 'newish' compared to others just getting theirs.

    I couldn't imagine the planning and logistics of accepting, prioritizing, estimating, building, transporting, and prepping thousands of cars a week. That said, it's their business - so I don't feel bad for them or make excuses. I've had a generally good experience - I have a number to text with...

    Your situation seems odd. There are a significant number of people who placed their order before you, but haven't got a VIN yet. I placed my order 6 days prior and got a VIN 2 days after you. Is your config over the $55k limit? I wonder if your config happened to be in stock and they were trying...

    Wow, you're hitting a ride range of pop-culture references. My son named my wife's white Y crYpto, not sure why - but we never call it that. Rosie came to mind initially for me. As a Cincinnati Reds fan, 'Rosie Red' is their female mascot, with Mr. Red being the other. Maybe Mr.? Clifford? Big...

    Red Model Y Waiting Room

    Love the spreadsheet. As a fellow spreadsheeter and future red owner, here is one I created for the Y we got in the summer of 2020 that tracks savings in charging compared to gas. We had a Honda Pilot that got 19.5 MPG and I'm using the price of gas at the place we usually frequented. My wife...

    Discussion: Model Y General Waiting room for orders placed After January 2023

    I was seeing the same thing, and thought I'd be more towards the end of my window. I think they do colors in batches, so they are probably burning through all the Red 1/13 orders now, maybe get into 14th or 15th. Someone knows... but I doubt anyone on this forum.

    Does red Model Y still qualify for EDD before $500 increase?

    Thanks - I'm hoping that holds true. Otherwise 'red' will be a very expensive color choice.

    Does red Model Y still qualify for EDD before $500 increase?

    Didn't meant to type EDD - meant tax credit. _______ This is what Tesla has posted: Price Caps The vehicle price at time of delivery must not exceed the following caps. This price includes optional equipment physically attached to the vehicle at the time of delivery and excludes software...

    Red as well - 8:06am on 1/13. EDD 2/3-3/3 - I'm in the midwest so assume the delay is for transporting the car.

    I would assume so. If it ends up going to Cincinnati, I can meet you there and get another pair of eyes to check it out.

    Discussion: Model Y General Waiting room for orders placed After January 2023

    I placed an order for a red Y on the 13th - I'm hoping I still qualify for the credit given it's set as the 'MSRP' and not the 'price paid'.
