I'm scheduled to take delivery this weekend - AWD/Red/White Interior/Sport Wheels. Was told it's a new November build w/ VIN 122xxx. I have previously rejected a September build w/ VIN 97xxx.
Does anybody here have evidence on whether Tesla has improved paint quality over the past 2 months? Just trying to manage my expectations.
Purely anecdotal, mine just delivered a little over a week ago has VIN 94,XXX, is an October build, and as far as I see, perfect paint. I did not get a microscope out to examine it. I did not run my fingers over every surface. The parts inside the doors/door wells are fully painted up. My naked eye appreciation is that it's quite excellent.
I'm thinking about doing the ceramic coating process and will be interested to see what 'paint correction' is required. I don't even see any swirls. Perhaps they are there, but not enough to appreciate them. That said, I think I read some of the red ones had rougher paint jobs. Flip side, there's been time to tune the process. Look carefully, but I'd be feeling good with an 11/2018 build.
