Received our Black LR MY today. Ordered in April and much to my surprise, I’m VIN was assigned about 2 weeks back and go it delivered to my home today.

Is there a way to find out if my MYLR has the 4680 battery or the Fremont one?

wow, congrats. can you fill us in on how you got that so fast??? ;)

Probably from Austin but with 2170 batteries. check the 11th character of the VIN, A means Austin F is Fremont.

Oh thanks for the that tip on the character. It has an ‘A’ so I guess it’s Austin. Also, to my surprise, I did get the home charger and the cover in the trunk similar to my MSLR.

Actually I went back and checked, my order date was May 7th. Not April, guys I was lucky to get it this early.
 
Can anyone comment on the paint quality of the black? Has there been any improvement as of late? I wish I had enough disposable income to wrap with stealth PPF. It looks so amazing IMO.
I will say that it did arrive with some swirls and some high spots. I did have it ceramic coated with a one step paint correction. Came out like a mirror like the car should have arrived.

After a thorough look, I washed my car for the first time and paint definitely had issues. Plenty of swirl marks. In some parts the paint even felt bumpy. 🤦‍♂️ I definitely suggest having a professional take a look and correct it. I’m having it paint corrected on August 1st and then wrapped.

I suggest anyone taking delivery to get a paint correction as soon as you can…. Shouldn’t have to worry about things like this on a new car…. But…. Tesla 🤷‍♂️? Lol I’ve haven’t had any other issues so far. I’m about 2 1/2 weeks into ownership.
