The "Last updated August 23, 2012" has disappeared from My Garage.

It's still in mine--just checked.

The MyTesla section of the TM website is down (at least for me)... wishful thinking, maybe they're pushing code for the online-automated delivery scheduling that has been rumored, so it will be up for Monday morning. Hard not to be anxious on the R-list!

As of 10:03PM PST, it is indeed down (blank white page) for me as well...

Where did you get that number?

I'll try to answer that: There are 1200 NA Sigs, and there are more than 1000 US Sigs. We've seen US Sig VINs as high as 1085. George B was quoted as saying there were some unrecoverable QC failures on certain vehicles, so some VINs no longer exist, but there were only a few dozen cases of this (if I remember the paraphrased quote correctly! ). So 1050-ish US Sigs means 150-ish CA Sigs to make up the 1200 total.

Yeah, so are forum thread pages (not the main forum listing, though). Whomever is their Drupal dev needs some help! I'd be happy to consult for them in exchange for a discount on my car

Don't think they're touching anything off-the-shelf for Dev. Site is way too custom, and running on Cold Fusion.

Edit: Not sure why they seem to take the site down for (minor) changes, we never do... but looks like they updated for the MT COTY award?

Oh, it's core is Drupal, I'm sure of it. In fact, if you look at the HTML source, you can see they're using the NineSixty theme framework as their base: NineSixty (960 Grid System) | drupal.org Nothing ColdFusion about it; it's all PHP.

Res S649, VIN 713 was scrapped (TM)

The VIN was scraped or did they just cancel completely? I haven't got S649 on the chart at all, so I can add it with some more info (delivery dates and such)

Oh yes you're right. The site originally started out as a CF site, they must have switched some time back. Never noticed when though. Probably when they started the configuration and commerce aspects of the site. But enough OT on this.

Tesla website is down...

The Tesla website is down...And this image is up:

Is that a new thing? Either way, it's new to me...I found it amusing

 

[dsm363]

This has happened before
TeslaMotors website down for maintenance

Wonder what they are updating.

 

[Lyon]

It's down again (for me at least). *insert speculation about the awesome thing that I think they're working on* It's probably just routine maintenance.

 

[AnOutsider]

Maybe they're adding things to the store, like apple

Indeed, and many times, it seems, like their's nothing new (that's obvious at least).

 

[TheAustin]

Maybe they're finally adding search?
(LOLz)

 

[Lyon]

Maybe they're finally adding search?
(LOLz)

And the ability to edit forum posts.

They're adding apples to the store now? I bet the red ones are limited edition, at least until January or so.

Speaking of red ones, what's up with the strange fuzzy red bar on the top of this site?

 

[brianman]

I see 6 regions of red / orange in Lyon's screenshot. Which part are you referring to, DrComputer?

 

[ddenboer]

The site is (kind of) back up.
I see changes to this page (this is an awesome page):
Your Questions Answered | Tesla Motors

And of course the top nav has changed for the better.

 

[Laumb]

First things found:

Removed the 40kwh battery for Europe.
Added the Red Multi-Coat color in Design Studio.

The Specifications site has been (almost) translated to european languages.

 

[SteveH]

There's a slightly different user interface for selecting submenus. Not sure that I like it. There are torque and horse power numbers up there now for all vehicles in the Options and Pricing section. Was that there before?
