Got my car at what seems to have been right before the end of said swag era....July 2016. Mug, pen, umbrella and pin. On a CPO no less. It's small things like this (no swag) that really solidify the end of the honeymoon for the Tesla relationship in my viewpoint. Yes there are software...

Well - EVCPO just clarified how that all went down. I know I have seen other Model S 85 go for in the $20k range. But yeah...makes sense now seeing the pricing chart. And as far as honoring advertised pricing, not sure what I can expect from Tesla right now. (Still feeling some burn from...

Exactly my same story... Just that I was stuck at work and couldn't drive. This isn't my first major failure but it is the first one I've had to eat the entire cost to address.

MCU died nearly 2 weeks ago on my 2013 Model S. Will pay for retrofit to MCU 2...but don't want to replace with the same thing....

See the attached picture. That's the type of crazy deal I'm talking about. I think this happened on September 16th of this year?

Tire Pressure Sensors. but did it ever turn into quite a situation.... I wrote about it in-depth in the CPO thread. Tesla Model S CPO Website - Now Live

There is increasing stories of this happening to older cars and people are starting to form business offerings to handle this specific issue. I know Tesla has a lot going on right now - but when peoples perfectly fine cars won't drive due to a cheap memory stick with an almost designed to...

I currently have a 2013 Model S with 135k miles...that is completely undriveable due to MCU failure. I want to get the upgraded MCU...not pay $2100 for what I just had fail. My car is really really showing been giving me a lot of problems (stranded twice in 12 months) and a new MCU would keep...

So I just got off the phone with John B. @ Mt. Kisco Service Center and discussed where I was at. I expressed that my Multimedia Control Unit actually won't allow me to access the use of my battery and drive unit, and therefor the battery and drive unit warranty don't completely make sense...

So I finally got the car to the new and extremely understaffed Rochester NY service center. I just got whacked with an initial $2100 before tax - to replace the MCU. I still think it's the eMMC. I asked if the screen replacement would be the newest version or a Gen 1 replacement of my...

Stuck in PARK.

Get some popcorn...a smoking jacket....and a bib. So, I got my car in July 2016. It was at the very end of what I'd consider the pinnacle of the Tesla buying experience. I had 2 support staff helping me with my car - they wanted to surprise me with it and felt bad when I saw it before it...

Going to try and revive this thread - This is the thread that helped me find my 2013 Model S in 2016...I've had it just shy of 3.5 years and I think it's time to figure out how to get a newer car with a refreshed warranty. I went through Brent Seavey and he was awesome and helped me find...

So far, it sounds like Brent left a void when he moved into new vehicle sales. So is the best option signing up for a membership on like EV-CPO or Tesla Inventory or whatever new 3rd party watch websites have since become a thing?

So - I'm not sure how many people remember Brent Seavey, but he got me the best deal on a Model S in 2016. Now he's been in New Vehicle sales for a while and the person he referred me to for any inquiries on Used vehicles through Tesla....well....They ain't Brent and don't really seem good at...

Just saw the supercharger active on my navigation when looking to see how likely I could make Rochester this afternoon. I was like..... 'What? That's new!' So my fiancee and I changed route just to see it. Charged no problem but if you need a bathroom or food break and you're not 21...

I know I've been away away a while and have some stories to share now that i have my CPO. But first... does anyone know of an option to mount my required front license plate without putting holes in the nosecone? I can't focus on much else until I get that taken care of...

We're only going to look this time....she already got crazy nice stuff for her birthday last week

After getting the car - I'm taking my Girlfriend to see NYC since we're almost there anyway. She's never seen it and I'm going to surprise her by going to 3 Jewelry stores that I think she'll really enjoy. Probably take pictures of trump tower since it's next door neighbor to one of the...

Going to pick up Thursday Morning....having to bus down. About 6 hours (yes it's my nearest Tesla location in the US). They called today and told me my 4G upgrade was completed today and there was no problems.

7/13 Messaged my DS (the day before he estimated the car would arrive in NY). I got an auto-response saying he was out of the office till 7/18. 7/14 Messaged the dealership e-mail (as per the auto response) and CC'ed my DS and got no response from either. 7/15 Called the dealership...

Was given a loose ETA today. Should have the car transported from Florida to Mt. Kisco by July 14th and they'll need 1-2 for NYS inspection, detail and prep. I'm estimating taking delivery on the 15th, 16th or 17th of July. That is if everything goes smoothly and I can trust the timing so...

Got my carfax today from Tesla. That was nice to have it within 1 day of asking.

Tomorrow will be 3 weeks since I put in my deposit. Tesla was taking longer because of Q2 delivery goals and were prioritizing new car delivery over CPO. But now with Q2 out of the picture......I'm hoping for more movement now. It is really hard to be patient. I've read almost all of the...

I put a deposit in 15 days ago and just received an update. My DS told me the car is undergoing a Pre-Delivery inspection and should be done within a few days. Then it will be shipped up to Mt. Kisco for a 1-2 day turnaround on detail and prep. So I'm theorizing 8 days from now: (3...

When did you actually deposit and what are you getting?

I also asked to get the 3g upgraded to 4g...so perhaps that is adding some complexity.

It's been over a week and still no update on delivery time-frame for my CPO. Is that consistent with what other people have experienced with their CPO purchase?

The above stated information is correct. Again, please keep in mind that Brent said he primarily deals in Midwest / Texas for CPO customers.

Congratulations! I hope it continues to be a great experience for you and your family! :)

Ouch bro!.....Results not typical? Other CPO owners please chime in or should I start to panic a little? lol. I hope it's geographic and that some heads roll on the account of that lack of coordination.

Did your CPO need any recondition or a long shipping time Boourns?

Seriously...When did you deposit? Is there any explanation for that length of wait time?

Wow.......that'd be like me picking up Saturday....that'd be cool...oh well :)

How long did you have to wait for your CPO in total days?

Thanks - I feel like time is slowing down. This is worse than when I sent in for the StarFox wrist watch off a cereal box when I was a kid....6 weeks was an eternity back then. The only thing I have as consolation is that I have a lot of time sensitive tasks to complete at work in order to...

Thanks Boourns!

Here is my answer to some of the questions posed: -My car comes with the 4 years 50K miles warranty CPO warranty like any other CPO. (58k is one of the highest CPOs I've heard of so my warranty aside form battery and drive unit will last till my car is at 108k miles....not bad in my opinion)...

Like I said....I've been following since the beginning....I think my results are not typical. But hey...its possible.

2013 S85 Grey 58,932 miles All Glass Panoramic Roof 19" Wheels Black Nappa Leather Interior Obeche Wood Gloss Decor Supercharger Enabled Tech Package Smart Air Suspension Ultra High Fidelity Sound $41300 I've been following CPOs ever since the start and I've never seen a deal like this. It...

Brent got me a car! He couldn't have contacted me at a better time.....I honestly have been having a really rough time recently. Work, Life, Stress....all of it eased off after getting a random e-mail from Brent listing the deal of a lifetime......wow. Totally cannot believe it... I'm...

PM sent

Did you purchase the extra warranty or is it now unable to be covered?

More information today. I always check in with Brent about 1 time per week, and today I he answered a question of mine that I've had for a while now. He said that during the last month of each quarter, CPOs awaiting prep get bumped out of the service centers in favor of prioritizing new cars...

Yeah... That S60 for 47k was offered to me by Brent last week..... But I need an S85 because of the hard winters in the finger lakes.... :/ More waiting.

My budget is the same ($45,000) - and I just sent another e-mail off to Brent. I'm not very confident in what he can do personally if no cars exist in my price range. Now it seems just a waiting game with no defined rules or direction other than.....Wait.

Yeah you are right about 40 being left....I wasn't thinking right when I wrote the number of cars sold and still available. It was over 60 before and now it's at 40.... Was 41 at the time I write earlier. If i want a car now.... it seems lease is the one option to remain in my budget.... Yet...

I was too late on the trigger to get an Model S85 for $45k or in the last 2 months. ($45,000 is my maximum budget for a Model S). Now, I'm aching watching the very warm Finger Lakes NY weather go by and I'm worrying that by the time I finally have a Model S, the weather will have turned very...

I have to correct my original wording - Pricing is going up on SEVERAL CATEGORIES of model S. So not all - but probably quite a bit of upward movement in pricing.

Ok - just got a message from Brent. He said that they have been doing an Internal Pricing Audit @ Tesla and prices will be going up on ALL CPOs. Does anybody know anything about this?!?!? I'm wondering if I need to do a panic purchase or what.....
