If you see red with cream interior 7 seat take some pics!!! This is going to be the longest week ever.
They saw my car in production but because no vin they surmised it was not yet in paint. That was on 25 May. I am taking delivery on 10 June. So ... 2 weeks maybe? If it ships right out.
If Im not too giddy over mine, I will definitely do that for ya. PM me with contact data and if I get any pics I will shoot them over.
I have had my Model X Performance for almost a week now and have started my list of items to get fixed by the service center.
1) Driver Window goes down but then requires help to go back up again (No fix currently)
2) No Cellular connection shows signal strength indicator with a line though it. (Tried pushing me the new firmware, did not fix the issue)
3) Ordered FSD but only came with Basic Autopilot (Pushed this update after calling the support line 24 hour turn around)
4) Brakes Squeal when coming to a stop (heard this was expected for first 100 miles or so, changed Regen to low and got rid of the squeal)
5) White substance/stains on the black trim above rear passenger wheel
Overall small things, but first available service date was 7 days out in SoCal.
You can't just relearn the driver's window? (open all the way with window switch, hold for a bit, close all the way with switch, hold for a bit, repeat? ) That usually fixes auto up/auto down problems...
That did fix the going down on it own issue, but now it does up very very slowly compared to the other windows like it is being bound up by something.
Well that's charming. Yeah, a service center visit or mobile ranger. It probably is being bound up in something in the tracks/alignment. :-/
Nothing for me!
I am scheduled to meet with my sales guy this Sunday to cancel my order. I am so upset that it is causing me anxiety and emotions that I didn't even know that I had. It is really sad actually because I am not this person that I have become. I am frustrated, angry, annoyed and so much more. This is not healthy! Thanks for checking in.

Just got delivery an hour ago. Build quality seems ok. There was some stuffing on one of the door interiors, but everything else so far feels solid.
Haven’t had a chance to dive deeper. If I find anything I’ll update here.

Hi @CoffeeMan
The VIN that was in my original source code looked older. I searched it and it came up as a P90, which mine should have been a P100D. In any case, I was not confident in the info and was not about to make any fuss until I received formal notification. I actually got the first REAL VIN when my alarm upgrade order was shipped. In order to get the Alarm upgrade, you need a VIN, so my order was stalled. I received notification that it shipped, and it included my VIN. I had that probably 24 hours before my order page prompted me to pay for my ACH and then maybe a day or so more confirmed the VIN when my delivery specialist contacted me.
Regarding the price change.
Do not misunderstand me. You are certainly capable of making your own informed decision. I just have some comments regarding that price change.
I look at it this way. I in no way signed a contract, but did sign a 'letter of intent' in the form of the deposit and order. It is perfectly reasonable for a buyer to expect any price drop between ordering and accepting delivery be reflected in your final purchase price. Likewise, it is unreasonable to expect a price increase to be passed onto a customer after the agreement was made. In other words... the customer should always get the lowest price of when they ordered vs when they took delivery. The fact that your contacts at Tesla are being obstinate about this, tells me they are either lazy or don't care. If you reach out to someone else above them, I have no doubt they would be able to help you. Most people are getting price drops automatically, without having to ask for the change. the fact you did not tells me that for some reason yours fell through a crack. All you need to do is find someone that can pick it up and fix it.
I am not a rich man, and this car is a huge investment for me. Not where it will hurt me, but enough where I care about getting a $1000 off. To me, that just offsets the roughly 8K in aftermarket stuff I am having done.
I wish you all the best sir. You have been a very patient customer. I hope you can realize that cost reduction like most others are.

I hope you wait it out. With today's-ish article at Elektrek about Tesla having record sales and offering bonuses to get deliveries out, there's a real good chance they get to you "real soon now"(tm). You're only a few days longer than mine was. I can't offer any advice on how to not stress too much. I was going to get my car regardless of how long it took and my existing car is fine (just old). That kept my stress level down. Again, I hope you don't cancel.Nothing for me!
Here's the article, btw: https://electrek.co/2019/06/05/tesla-sales-high-bonuses-leak/
after 4 delivery delays got a call around 8pm last night from some delivery guy saying he's ready for home delivery. strange cause i only live 10min from the Fremont factory. anyway he said he would first like to supercharge the car because it only has 90 miles charged. thought that was a little strange. anyway told him I'm completely unavailable this week for any sort of delivery and maybe next week unfortunately.

So I took delivery yesterday after a delay to fix an issue with the falcon door striker and latch. The moment I got it home, opened and closed the falcon doors so the kids could take a look, the thing starts complaining that the door isn't closed. I ended up driving it to the service center at opening this morning to get it fixed again I guess, so that's kind of annoying
On the other hand, about the Raven istself, this is a Long Range Performance Ludicrous model (Formerly P100D + Ludicrous). I charged to 80% last night which showed 240 miles of range this morning. Efficiency rating has been about 315-325wh/mi for the 80 or so miles I've driven it. The suspension is REALLY good, especially comparing it to the P90D loaner that they gave me. I've very happy with the new suspension and I'm very glad that I waited instead of getting something in inventory without it. My Monroney sticker listed it as Dual AC Induction, and 289 miles of range. I spoke with the service center and he pulled up data on the car itself and showed me where it's listed as PMSR so I'm thinking just a misprint of the monroney.

You are right and I need to relax! THANK YOU!!
For what it's worth, I'm loving my Raven Model S Performance more each day! It's definitely worth the wait. Who knows what the September refresh will bring, but I think the car is nearly perfect now. I worry they might mess up some things I like.
