    How do they fix it? Just by using touch up paint or something better.

    I am sure the other poster was right. My Statefarm agent also said Tesla insurance is much cheaper than theirs, I get $160/month with 5500 miles/year and $1000 deductible. The SA is obviously being conservative.

    Quotes from Tesla insurance is Monthly. I was told their rate changes each month based on your actual driving record in the previous month (collected over the air) and you can cancel any time. Tesla SA told me they have seen about $200/month for MYLR. My Statefarm agent had seen much lower from...

    Is this from the big parking lot with thousands of cars? On the smaller lot next to sales/delivery center, there are 100+ cars to be delivered to local people, I feel MYP is about 40-50%. Maybe Silicon Valley engineers are more willing to spend more on MYP. Or maybe more frustrated Bay Area...

    I received in text message from the 510 phone number, also in email. You web account should always have the schedule delivery request. I think I have seen notification on my phone app too, but that was after I have done the schedule. So for me, the answer is all of the above.

    He got it from my post yesterday. I saw them by checking the 100+ cars at Fremont delivery center parking lot. MY SA told me the general direction where my car is and I went over to check the cars one by one. The paperwork is on the wind shield or front seat. I only checked 1/3 of the lot about...

    Read my follow-up post this morning with the white paint on the driver seat. I believe I got the car earlier since (1) I sent a message to let them know I really want it with a trip coming up (which is true) and it is possible this car with white paint problem was rejected just when I sent the...

    Thanks for the advise. 1. No, the plastic covers for both front seats was not removed but I noticed they were teared. 2. Service request already scheduled, first thing I did this morning after I made the post. Actually, according to the SA I met yesterday, it is 7 days or 100 miles. But I...

    I think I know why I have gotten a favor from Tesla to get the delivery earlier. While helping me to do home charging, my kid found the white stain on the driver seat. This seems to be some kind of white paint, probably from the coat of a Tesla employee or from the car before the paint was...

    My delivery was scheduled to be tomorrow morning but we just could not wait. My wife and I went to Fremont to see if we could pick up earlier (just in case IRS making a change tomorrow). On our way over to the sales office, we saw hundreds of cars (at least) in the big lot, at least a dozen...

    I am in NorCal, so my MYLR will get Matrix headlights from Fremont factory anyway. The rest of your list items are very accurate, I had done the same comparison myself and came down to same conclusion. Most drivers should go with MYLR even if they were the same price.

    Check Craiglist on the prices for Uberturbine and Gemini, they are close, so do not count on you will make a profit.

    There had been a lot frustration on the inconsistent EDD on this thread. And some even came up conspiracy theory. Here is my opinion and I totally respect all other opinions. I do not believe Tesla is in the business to get those with lower prices to cancel, so that they can sell the car to...

    It is very easy to find out. just go to your Tesla web account (not app) and click “edit design”, then select performance. do not be afraid to do so, it will show you the new price and you need to approve by click a button. I tried this when I got bored/frustrated waiting a few days ago, and...

    Good to know it is not a software upgrade. :) My suspicion was based on the news a few years ago, Tesla did OTA software upgrade to get more range for those Tesla cars in a Hurricane zone so that they could get out without having to recharge alone the way. That is why I always suspect the SRs...

    I told them I am planning a trip to Asia late March (this is true) and really would like to get the car ASAP. The first message in the morning is they do not have one now but will try hard to get me one soon. 3 hours later, a message asked if they can get one, can I take delivery today or...

    Your point on ants on an anthill and the 3rd grader might be true. Tesla must be reading forums like this and take necessary action when someone threatened to cancel. Hmm, should I try this myself? You should be glad that you were busy shopping yesterday and did not have time to cancel. And...

    I really feel you have over-reacted. I would have kept the order since if you cancel, it's gone and you have to take all the lost. Even if you know you do not want the car, you can still keep the order alive. Tesla will keep this order for some time (For my Feb 2020 model Y order, I rejected...

    Congratulations! But now I am annoyed... My OD is 1.5 weeks before yours. I have the same spec MYLR W/B 19. I live just a few miles from Fremont Factory. But no VIN yet.
