    CPO delivery process

    Does anyone know why Tesla doesn't refurb the CPO vehicles before posting them online? They know that they are going to sell them one way or another. Why not just get the refurb process out of the way and speed up delivery?

    Is Model X production down?

    Hi all, I just noticed that new Model X orders are estimated to have "June delivery". Model S orders are still late March. There have been reports of Model X delays and very few Model X's being delivered this year per threads lower down, does anyone know or speculate about what's going on?

    Accessories (2018 Jan order)

    Hi Guys, I order MX on 01/30/2018 and wonder what type of accessories come with. Has anyone ordered MX during the month of Jan. 2018? My OA said there is none except for carpeted floor mat for January order. Can anyone confirm if this is true?

    Why are some people getting VIN's in the 2000s NOW?

    Its weird where I am seeing so many people now getting very LOW vins in the 2000s, I wonder what the rhyme or reason is in terms of that?

    Tesla Home Charger Kwh Meter

    Not sure if anyone is interested but I recently installed this meter by my charger, to track my actual Kwh usage. It was fairly easy to do, and cost around $20 on amazon. (Don't pay attention to the 120V, I didn't directly wire it in my 220V line and just ran power from a 120v outlet thats why...

    What does "Factory Gated" mean on a car

    I saw this in the window of a Model 3 that just arrived in MN. Does anyone know what "Factory Gated" means? It makes me think that it would be something that they wouldn't want leaving the factory.

    Should Tesla offer a $5,000 Ludicrous Upgrade to move CPO P85D's ?

    Do you think Tesla should offer a Ludicrous Upgrade for an additional $5,000 on all the 31 CPO P85D's to get them sold? This definitely would make them more attractive to buyers IMHO... especially the "unicorn" P85D's with the Plus Suspension. 8-) If you agree Tweet or email Elon and/or Tesla...

    More precise estimates?

    I read somewhere that Tesla after the initial start of production phase actually made quite precise estimates of the ramp up of production of the S and X. Does anybody know og this is true? And should we therefore expect the new estimates to be quite accurate?

    Where, Oh Where, Is the Next Batch of Invites?

    It's been 18 days and counting since the last batch of invites went out (Jan 24), and that batch was the smallest of the three (per the spreadsheet respondents). The time between invite batches has 'never' been this long before. No one else here finds this fact pattern newsworthy/disturbing...

    Anyone know/hear anything about a Model 3 getting to one of the NJ showrooms?

    Has anyone heard anything about a Model 3 being available to look at in NJ? I'm an S owner with a resevervation made in August and really need to see one in person. Anyone hear anything?

    Brother is a soon to be Tesla Owner

    My brother is buying a used Model S for himself after the further delays on the Model 3. He is willing to put his car on my Tesla account to bump my place in line (non-owner). Does anyone know if this is possible?

    Joining the family!

    just placed an order for the 100D MX. Took my first test drive tonight in Newport Beach. Here on business from Alabama. Not an impulse buy- been researching these things like crazy.

    What's Better? Refreshed Model S or Free Unlimited Supercharging?

    I have a Model S coming in March and I couldn't be more excited, but I can hold off on the order for the new 2019 Model S after the refresh. However, I will likely lose the free unlimited supercharging incentive I got when I ordered it...Is it worth it?

    Price Drop on MS 100D?

    I ordered a 100D the end of January. I received the VIN on February 2nd. Today I was in the designer and for kicks built my identical car again. Much to my surprise the base price of the Model S 100D is $4300 less and the delivery fees dropped by $75. Will Tesla adjust the price since the price...

    Predictions of non-owner base model 3 (SR) deliveries

    What do folks predict as the actual timeframe for availability of the base model 3 to non-owners not in California but in the US? How did the delays play out for the Model S and X? How long was the delay from initial reservation until you could get one?

    Canada deliveries bumped up - what are you getting?

    I am a non-tesla owner, non-employee, reserved online Apr 1, 2016. My delivery estimate used to say late 2018. Now I see that if I choose 1) First production (Long range + premium) = mid-2018 2) Standard battery = Early 2019 3) Dual motor (Long range or Standard) = mid-2018 What are you...

    2,500 Per Week in Q1/5,000 Per Week in Q2

    I just saw a really interesting comment in the 8-K form that was just updated on the investor relations page. This is very good news in my opinion! "Tesla, Inc. is clarifying the following statement made by Elon Musk, Tesla’s Chief Executive Officer, during Tesla’s fourth quarter and full year...

    Cpo finance question

    I’m in the final days before I’m supposed to get my car. Just now hearing from my finance company (who is out of state) that they need wording in the contract that says Tesla will handle the lien paper work and titling. Anyone whose gotten a cpo in Cali, does the final contacts have that in it?

    How does dual motor interact with delivery estimate?

    I'm a MS owner but am asking for my mother, who has a reservation for a M3. Her delivery estimate now says "late 2018" and the dual-motor version says "late 2018". Does that mean she might be able to use her reservation to get a dual-motor Model 3 in late 2018? I know a lot of it is...

    How soon does Tesla make contact after VIN assigned ?

    Hoping for some insight. I read that people are receiving telephone calls from a Las Vegas number regarding scheduling delivery but wondering how soon to get a phone call after a VIN is assigned. Thanks

    Why Did First Production go May-July?

    So I had two reservations, one which I will take delivery for at the end of the month God willing, and the other I was going to wait for P version, in any case my second reservation like my first said it was ready to configure and I can configure now or hold, I did neither for the time being...

    Ordering through owner's account

    So when I first ordered, I wasn't in a huge rush since my lease didn't end until April of this year. So I ordered on 4/1 online. My original date was Feb-Apr and now has been pushed May-July. My question is this - should I order through my dad's Tesla account now (he's an owner of an X)? Or is...

    Can't sign in...Says my account isn't available right now. Try again later. Where it says reservation holders can check delivery date estimates "click here" I click "here" and it says I don't have a Model X order. No joke! I have a Model S order. What's going on? Anyone else having issues...

    Tesla website down? Can't cancel M3. "Your account isn't available right now."

    Went to Tesla website just now to check how to cancel a Model 3 reservation and was greeted with, "Your account isn't available right now. Try again later. Reservation holders can check delivery date estimates here." Has this happened before?

    Current Owners, Were your Estimated Delivery Dates Changed?

    I see plenty of non-owners, including me, having their delivery dates moved an entire quarter or more depending on configuration. I haven't seen any posts from owners announcing their change in delivery dates. I became an owner of a private party S (bought from a forum member this weekend) so...

    Dual motor coming before SR

    Looks like dual motor is coming before RWD SR. Dual motor will be offered in both SR and LR. I say this because my delivery estimator just had big changes. I made my reservation as a non-owner, 3/31/16 online order from Chicago. Earlier today, my estimates were: First Production: Feb - April...

    I have learned to read TMC posts with a great deal of salt

    i just picked up my model 3 today. Perfect build. I remember when I got my model X and printed out lists of defects to look at but car was perfect including falcon doors. My model S same deal as my roadster. I don’t know if TMC posters reporting issues are biased, I can only report mine. My cars...

    Heater DOA

    We finally picked up ours after 1hr on Uber traffic last night. Only two of 3s were getting delivered at the time. No swags, no extra lightning cables, we're ushered to go on our way as they're closing. Which is okay since they can't go red carpet on 400k more people I suppose. On the way...

    Lienholder on trade-in?

    Waiting in an interminable line at DMV right now, thought I'd see if anyone could answer and save me time. Delivery targeted for less than 7 days from now.

    Texas Hold Up!

    Test drive Tesla CPO?

    Buy new or used MX

    Hello Everyone, Thanks for all the helpful information. This is my first post. I have been looking into buying a Model X. Is it really worth the price tag? I have been looking a lot online and have been looking at some fully loaded 2016 MX for about the same price as a new base model 100D...

    Owners—anybody miss the Nov-Jan window?

    What happens if you reserve in California and then move?

    Does anybody know what happens if you reserve your car in California but then move prior to receiving your configuration invite?

    No inventory cars available at all - S, X or 3

    I noticed recently that inventory cars seem to have disappeared on-line. I read here that Tesla may be holding back and not want to make their inventory public online.

    My journey to Model X

    Quick recap of my journey to Model X. Been driving a little bit electric since I bought a Toyota Avalon Hybrid in 2013. Have loved the hybrid and 41 ICE mpg. The sound of my Avalon's regenerative braking is 'cha-ching:' $$ into piggybank. Avalon hybrid has a battery-compromised trunk with no...
