    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    If you don't like the ordering experience, just until you get to the *sugar* show that is the delivery experience! 😅 But, seriously, the ordering part is I think reasonable. As your window narrows, it gets more accurate. I'd say it's very likely you get a car by the end of the month.

    Sorry to hear that! It's hard to tell in the photos, but how did you find that?

    They seem to build in batches, every few weeks they get back to the same color.

    Well, that's odd. Seemed like it was automatically generated. Well, good luck!

    The MVPA should be available in your app or online in your account at Tesla.com.

    Same for me. $100 per month to add the '24 plaid to GEICO in NC

    The red light mistake can be interesting. There's one by me that flickers at 60 hz, so with the 60 fps shutter, it looks like a flashing red light instead of a solid red. So, the car always comes to a stop and then goes when the road is clear! I don't know how that will ever be fixed without...

    I don't think they will know anything until they see the car on the lot. Even then, some locations will get cars without the updates while some get it earlier, depending on shipping.

    Anyone bought the track package for a daily driver?

    They said someone put a deposit on it, sight unseen. So, I might have been too slow

    Oh man. That's a bummer. I was hoping the track pack would solve all the vibrations.

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    I don't think so, since I have an older order before the paint price increase. But, I did order Plaid, so there could be a preference for Plaid over LR cars.

    I assume just later engineering. They learned the buttons on the S/X suck and they redesigned them for the 3/Y. But, going back and redoing them in the S/X costs money and isn't likely very soon.

    That's strange. UR, 19s, wheel, should be a really common configuration. I've been matched with VINs four times since Nov 10. Three times were the same car, though. :rolleyes:

    The wheel in the car I checked out had the same capacitive turn signals. It did not move like the turn signals on the highland 3. I also test drove that car while I was waiting the same day. The highland also has better door buttons that are actual physical buttons instead of the capacitive...

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    Yeah. Too many minor issues and terrible presentation annoyed me. Dirt all over the car. Scratches in the paint, damaged under side from scraping the front bumper, damaged drivers handle, seat wrinkles, driver's rear door misaligned, sticker goo, dirty floor mats, etc. Small stuff, but annoying...

    Yeah, they texted me this morning to say my car was available early and that I could schedule an earlier pickup... I replied I was there yesterday... Probably takes a few days for them to remove it.

    The seat has fewer wrinkles than the car I rejected yesterday.... 😅 🤞

    Anyone bought the track package for a daily driver?

    haha. I don't know if the wheel falls apart, but if it is the yoke, I can look forward to it peeling and getting a new one.
  22. n2mb_racing

    Anyone bought the track package for a daily driver?

    Yeah. The car is in transit. Looks like they bought it from a carmax auction in CA. Arriving Monday. I'll take a close look at the photos and then fly down... If it is ultra red, that would indicate it was built 2023 after the last set of changes. So, the only thing it's missing is the center...

    Just spotted a '23 with the track pack for $87k. That's interesting.... hmm.... Maybe flying.

    Anyone bought the track package for a daily driver?

    Can someone let me know what to look for on a car with the track package? I just saw one listed that supposedly has the track pack. I can see the wheels and what looks like bigger brakes. Yup, can see the carbon ceramic rotors. I assume it should also say something on the "additional vehicle...

    I don't think I found any. I didn't bring the lacquer thinner. I figured if I could find any touch up paint, there was no point in removing it. I found some white gunk under the passenger door. Maybe lithium grease? Lots of adhesive goo and other junk on it. Lots of dirt. I did get to test...

    Yeah. They said it arrived late. It was off-site. Seemingly in a muddy lot because even after their basic wash the bottom half was covered in mud.

    Now I'm wondering if I just should have accepted it and moved on with my life. I think too much baking in the hot sun inspecting the car got to me.

    Tesla leases haven't been great for a while. What was a steal was in 2016 when I leased a Model S P90DL demo model for $750 / mo for 2 years.... Good times.

    The problem is they can't fix most of them. They can't fix paint. Interior pieces maybe can be replaced.

    I'm using it now. I'm not sure about accepting delivery. There are a lot of scratches in the clear coat and damage on the underside of the front of the car. I don't know if the next car will be any better, though.

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    I probably would have started sooner. I kept trying to go to service again and again to get them to fix my car. Thinking if they could just get one more thing right I'd be fine. After 11 service visits, I gave up and started pushing for a buyback. That took 3-4 months, but eventually they did...

    Model 3 Highland Performance/Plaid Speculation

    I mean, it's all silly. They could have done it with the plaid X with 1020 HP. It's all silly. I can appreciate that the plaid is almost as good as the Taycan gt for half as much money. We'll see once get NACS... maybe I'll switch.

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    I don't think it will matter for FSD. It's only going to matter for things that are very low to the ground when parking that the regular cameras can't see. It's going to be really useful when you park the car to not hit bumper blocks because the front nose scrapes on everything. Without it I...

    Towing at 116 mph is probably the sketchy part. The trailers aren't rated for that.

    I thought the conclusion was it still would have been even at the quarter mile, but they didn't want to risk it.

    I think it will. They said 2025 for NACS. So, maybe? It's a 2025 model.

    12V Access: Model S 2021 Refresh

    I wonder how much charging current they provide. I can't imagine much reason for them to charge the 16v battery very quickly. So I'd guess 7A to 14A.

    Model 3 Highland Performance/Plaid Speculation

    It's probably wrong. They wouldn't go through the trouble of refreshing it and have the same performance figures.

    Uh. 7:07 vs 7:25. They did something right on the Taycan gt.
