This is the one I used. Its extensive so we didn'tgo through every single item like check charging etc. We also printed out a photo of a 3d image to easily mark areas of the issue.

Thanks everyone for the feedback. I ended up taking the car. All the issues were addressed and fixed at the delivery center. I couldn't notice any other panel gaps except the minor frunk misalignment beside the left headlight. I highly recommend going through a checklist on delivery day. It...

There's one more issue I noticed. The plastic parts behind the tail lights seem a little flimsy. Same with the frunk plastic. It's not tight. Is this related to the rattling noise?

Thank you so much. The scratches have been buffed out pretty well :)

Thank you. Also noticed a minor tear on the driver side door leather. It's tiny. But the their fix is to remove the door panel. I'm not comfortable with sending it to the shop and scared it might start to rip more in the future. Is this a good reason to reject or am I being too picky?

At thr delivery center to pick up my car. There are a few minor issues. But the biggest concern I have is multiple scratchs on the hood. They are trying to buff it out but is it worth taking the delivery if they can't fix it?

My MSLR was built on November 17th according to the SA. Depending on when you got this info we might have to take it with a grain of salt.

I agree with this. Tesla sacrificing their luxury models for CT doesn't make sense. The consumer base for both these products are probably different too. Although the new Model 3 highland has almost all the same features luxury features of the current S minus the instrument cluster. Also a...

I have my delivery coming up soon as well. Planning to follow the tips posted by this guy. He look for long term issues rather than fixate on harmless panel gaps. My goal of the delivery inspection is to ensure the car doesn't need a service center visit every now and then.

This is amazing. I got to see this today when I made an unexpected stop for coffee at Blenz. Does anyone know when will this finish? It already looks like it's complete but not operational yet.

Easiest way to get the Factory gate / build date is asking the Tesla SA. I texted them with my request and turns out my car was built on the same day I got my VIN. They provided a timestamp as well. If the build quality is good and no major issues I'm going to accept the vehicle. Don't really...

Yes that's CAD. New one costs CA$99,990

This is hilarious. I don't understand what Tesla is trying to do but I get a good laugh when I see the $10 price decrease every day / evening. This is my last post about this. I don't want to annoy you guys 😅

This is my first Tesla and EV. I'll probably go ahead if the build quality is good and everything passes on my checklist. It would be nice to have the front camera and the other minor updates but not a deal breaker for me. I'm more worried about the price increase. I suspect there will be...

You might get the VIN in a week. At least that's what happened in my case.

I got my VIN assigned today. Its still a 2023.

How did you find the build date?

I can see the difference. Where is this service center located? Did you try going to a different one if you're in a big city?

I got my VIN assigned today and its a 2023 :(. Placed the order on 10/22. I'm trying to figure out the factory gate date. The method posted on this thread works on inventory but doesn't work on my custom order. Any here able to figure that out yet? Also it asks me to review and accept terms...

Here in Canada they are dropping the inventory prices by $10 a day. I've been noticing this since last 3-4 days. Took screenshots of yesterday and today. Guess I'll buy it in 9705 days when the price drops to 0 😂

Which service center is this? Was the plaid badge installed wrong from the factoruly or did this happen at the Service Center?

Is it a 23 or 24 VIN?

This is happening to me as well. Showing the exact same dates too.

Looks awesome! Congrats 👏

Thanks a lot @aerodyne . I just tried another similar approach which also worked on the inventory car. 1. Open the existing inventory. 2. Click on View details of the desired car 3. Open the JS console by pressing F12 on a mac if you're using cchrome. 4. Search for FactoryGatedDate. It will...

I think the VIN usually skip O and Q. I'm assuming the 24s will have R. I'll check with the SA to get the build date details once I get the VIN.

Now that I have an updated EDD does that mean that the car is on the production line? Or is it already built and ready for delivery?

My EDD got updated from Nov 19th - Dec 31st to Nov 13th - 30th. Looks like I might get a VIN soon. Details: MSLR UR 19" black interior Order date: 09/26 Placed on hold until 10/22

Completely agree. I was thinking if requesting the same. Although I didn't known if that violates the forum rules.

Thanks for clarifying

Looks like the warranty is related to the manufacturing date. For example this demo unit has a end dates of August 2027 for 4 years / 80k and August 2031 / 240k km...

Yes they are selling them for 2-3k less than the actual price in Vancouver, Canada

I just checked Vancouver inventory. They added 2 new demo cars. MS (1650km) , MSP(598km) both with UR exterior. The theory seems to add up.

You're right. I'm tracking the Canadian inventory on a daily basis including CPO. I noticed one more pattern happening here in BC, Canada. This is a bit of a tangent from the current topic but I see that as soon as a CPO comes up it sells in < 24 hours. After a week or 2 I see that being...

Stealth Grey looks amazing! Congratulations 👏

Haha. I wasn't a fan of the pearl white exterior until I saw it in person. Definitely an underrated color. Hope you enjoy your car!

Exactly it's all speculation until someone officially confirms

If you really want the upgrade then I would recommend you wait until someone confirms they received it. Although I think they will raise the prices for the new config. When I asked the Tesla SA about the upgrade they said nothing is officially confirmed. If there is a new update the respective...

What's your config?

Agree. I would personally get the stock ones and buy aftermarket 21" if I really wanted them so that I can have a set of both summer and winter tires.

I ordered the same spec on 10/22 MSLR Ultra Red with black interior. It'll be my first Tesla and EV as well. I think our order might be built at the same time. Because I read somewhere that they build cars in batches of the same color. Also all the recent updates have been on Stealth Grey...

Here is how I would evaluate. Just make sure its not a 2022 VIN with manufacture date < Feb 2022. Because that is actually a 2021. Where the screen doesn't swivel and doesn't have the new matrix head and tail lights. 2022 cons: HW 3 less warranty 21" wears faster Red multi coat ( I personally...

Sorry this happened. You were quite accommodating. Tesla should've fixed your issue the first time without causing further problems. Check and see if a replacement car is still an option. I would go with a new one if that was possible.

Congratulations! I hope you get a 2024 VIN I came across a post in reddit about the FUSC agreement. Just make sure you read the contract properly and check with the SA if you have any concerns.

I'm curious about that too. I kinda suspect they might also announce a minor refresh or update on S/X on 30th November during the CT delivery event. Although I could be completely wrong. One more pattern I noticed is that inventory was all time high in the end of August this year and that's...

I would recommend getting stock 19" and use the money saved on wheels to buy aftermarket 21" they are much better value and also cheaper. Plus you'll also have a set of winter and summer wheels

Congratulations! Is it a 2023 or 24 VIN?

Wonder why the Canadian inventory for MS is so low. There are only 4 tesla MS available in all of Canada.

Probably. I have a similar config as you but I ordered the MS LR.
