originally ordered late Jan, had to delay for personal reasons then moved from the East Coast, so I had to get a CA license and get back in line early May

that is a beauty! I went back and forth between all black, but then settled on MSM with white interior. I am scheduled for home delivery but would much rather pick it up in Dublin SC, but we shall see. Nice to hear that the home delivery went so smooth!I'll go through the checklist tomorrow since I'm too excited to point out any issues at the moment. High level, the rear hatch gap looks good, it came with just 6 miles. They dropped off the car in a parking spot near my house and I got access to the car via phone. Pretty freakin' awesome experience.
It was fun waiting with you guys, see you in the other parts of the forum.
I ordered an MSM with white interior too. My first choice is black but changed it because we already have a black car. I'm pretty sure you can't go wrong with either color.

Lots of Bay Area people getting VINs! Guess we in SoCal are dead last. 
Same here for the colors. I’ve had a lot of black cars and a lot of silver cars. MSM splits the difference.

Yeah the SA put MSM with black interior when that wasn’t close to what I told him. The build time was still the same from my original date.

What cars did you sell?
I think my air suspension and wheels are going to get here before the car does.

Sold my 2016 Escalade ESV and My 2008 BMW 750li . Don't want to spend money on gas anymore. With these crazy prices.
I went back and forth re the induction wheels. I was talked out of it because I kept reading that the ride was not as smooth. Be curious to see what you think after you pick yours up. Congratulations!
I don't have a VIN yet unfortunately but thanks. Yup the ride would be stiffer with the induction wheels according to reviews. I'm hoping it wouldn't bother me that much.
I'm in the Bay Area but still waiting for a VIN so yeah it's double the frustration for me seeing others from my area getting them already.

That’s definitely going to be a huge change for your wallet, congrats! I sold my Kira Niro Plug-In back in January thinking I didn’t need it since we have 3 cars at the house and I wasn’t going back into the office until July. Well I was wrong and was driving to LA a lot for work and the traffic was killing me. No joke! On my way home from LA I scheduled a test drive at the nearest Tesla dealer and bought it after 10 minutes. Autopilot is a must for what I do for work.

Well I’ll take yours then because that’s what I ordered lol.
Pls keep an eye on a blue one with 7 seat (black) when you go. Thanks so much! Good luck and hope all goes well. I picked up 2 my M3 2 years ago there and it was a nice experience. Have fun!

TBH…. I was in the same boat. I had convinced myself that the inductions would suffer from curb rash and it would drive me nuts. So I removed them from my order to only realize that all other options are generally about the same cost and probably not look nearly as good. Then I came to the realization that it can be repaired every 6 months for about $250 if it really bothered me that much and I couldn’t figure out how to not hit curbs.
Unfortunately this was only after I changed my order twice (removed them and then re-added them). I like the looks and if they are too difficult to maintain then I’ll swap them out and sell them on the open market.
I think I’ll just be really careful…. The wife on the other hand….
