    Non-owner to owner status; how it affects M3 reservation?

    Ordered Model 3 on 4/13/17. After reading loads of Model 3 reviews during the autumn of 2017, decided on Model S. Placed my Model S order mid-Jan. Collected Model S on 3/23/18. Kept the Model 3 order as the wife now wants it. No invite to configure yet, although I login to check on the...

Improved features will continue to be designed and installed into the Model S sometime after we take...

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    I keep wavering back and forth between a Model S and Model 3

    I was in the same boat until I read owner reviews of the Model 3. “Too much road noise. Stiff ride. No Cush factor.” End of consideration. Model S ordered in Jan. Also recalled description of the Model 3 as competition for BMW Series 3 and Mercedes C Class. As a BMW Series 7 owner, not...

    MCU fails for the second time

    Nothing wrong with REMFG. With the amount of examination and testing that occurs before being released It is often more stable than a new one.

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    CBP, I'm glad to provide you with that info. Now that the page has changed to having a VIN, under "What's Next?" it reads: "Your Tesla order has been confirmed and scheduled for production in our factory."

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    Update: VIN assigned. As others have noted above, no email announcing the change, discovery upon account log in. Ordered: 1/10/18 Confirmed: 1/12/18 VIN: 2/9/18 Guesstimating week of 3/19/18. Anyone believe the Model 3 rampup is effecting the Model S completion rate?

    We considered the leatherette but after visiting a nearby service center to check them out up close and following a discussion with the manager, we went with textile for our 75D ordered in Jan. for precisely the same reasons as outlined above.

    Loss of contacts with an iPhone X

    I test drove a MS at the Woodland Hills CA location last week and it paired and worked flawlessly with my iPhone X. Perhaps a delete/re-pairing will solve the issue.

    Need Guidance on Ordering Model S- 75 vs 100

    Just ordered the 75D MS with Enhanced Autopilot as the only upgraded option. Aftermarket makes more sense as I'm in So Cal so no need for sub-zero add-ons. Hoping to find a drop-in sub solution for the rear cavity.

    Ordered MS on1/9. Confirmation 1/12. Standard black/black. Installed NEMA 15-40R receptacle in carport wall. Minimalist look complements mid-century home. Expected mid to late March. Hoping Model 3 ramp-upR won't extend that wait time.

    Ideal Aftermarket Audio System for Model S

    Hello Forumites, Just ordered MS with standard audio. Since there is no subwoofer in the system, any suggestions for a drop-in subwoofer which neatly fits into the (empty) cavity? Or those with experience, should I just go with the Eton solution outlined in previous posts, keeping the...
