What’s the cost breakdown for your list?
Being quicker than expensive cars, reminds me of my base 718 and being able to hunt down some GT4s and 911’s, just takes someone better than the other guy.

Hmm, I thought I remembered a friend who bought an S say that he got an insta-rebate, but it sounds like I'm wrong there.
It's a P.
thx Steve you will get yours soon; hopefully yours is higher quality than mine. my window trim and panel/door gaps are huge
i dunno if Tesla service would attempt to adjust?

Oh no! That's not good to hear. Hope there's something they can do.
meh, it’s just a couple mm gaps. i’m just used to German engineering which was more precise. everything else is awesome.
i’ll post pics if anyone is interested in my Micheal Strahan gaps

I'd like to see that. Maybe those are more obvious with white? I don't know if I'd notice something like that myself unless it was pretty bad.

Ok, so I attempted to try and show how bad the rear door trim is, but I didn't line up my ruler perfectly. I estimate it is 3mm (driver rear) vs 6mm (passenger rear) gaps. Very noticeable by eye, oh well, the car otherwise is awesome. None of the window trim is symetrical or consistent, but I have read Tesla will often deny refitment because 2-3mm is within their acceptable tolerances, and more importantly, reinstalling window trim can be damaging. Finally I am getting it wrapped in vinyl, so maybe that will make it less noticeable?

Easy to see with the wide shots. Too bad. I'd push them on it. Worst case maybe you can get some other concession. Nice looking wheels with the Bimmer caps. Going on the T?
LOL sorry, i posted that after a few brewskies. i wish those BMW wheels would fit on my T, i would swap out with T center caps and be set for winter....athought they are 18s so unlikely to fit over big red sport breakes. instead they are for sale on CraigsList (make me an offer!) and i have my 19s already mounted on my T. that is why the 20s are on the floor, ready to get powdercoated!

Give me some sugar baby

That is much much better than most of the photos we have seen of cars will badly fitting trim.
Having owned/driven German cars now for going on 20 years I don't know what the heck you are complaining about.
i have had 5 BMWs (all leased) prior to my Tesla, none had inconstent gaps like this. i checked my 435i Gran Coupe before turning it in, everything was at least consistent. i know i shouldn't compare 100yr old BMW to 15yr (if that, with such light production so far) to Tesla....just sharing my ONLY complaint!
i do not, but i can tell you that EchoPark (i like the one in Thorton, CO) makes MUCH better offers than CarMax/Tesla. They offered me $3,500 more, good luck!
