finally got a call back from my SA and he told me that since I am in Northern California and the closest to the Fremont plant, my delivery will be one of the last ones shipped/delivered. East Coast first, the MidWest and SoCal and then the bastard children of NorCal. And here I was thinking, itll be based on order date...lol

6/8-6/14. And earlier post had a typo. 4/25 order date. Tracker was always right.
Checked the front passenger seat: lumbar support installed and functional.
They called me the day after I placed my order and introduced themselves and then texted me right after. I would call the SC you are picking up from and ask who your SA is and get the contact number for them.
Man I am very frustrated. I asked my sales associate to check my MY (VIN 186XXX) to see if it had passenger side lumbar support and it does not. That's yet another change for the worse that I didn't anticipate 8 weeks ago when I ordered the car (radar delete). Maybe it was a good thing I couldn't pick-up on Saturday because they needed to make adjustments to the hatch. I have until this Saturday to decide if I want to go forward or walk away, and I'm much closer to the walk away camp at this point.
On another note, I feel bad for the sales associates having to deal with the crap situation that Tesla management has put them in this quarter. I've had very timely communication with everyone I've dealt with at the Schaumburg location so far, so in no way is this criticism pointed at them.

I apologize if someone responded to this before but my MY has lumbar and lane departure. I guess it uses the cameras for that. I can assure you that once you get your car you will forget about all this

WHAT?! No way! Secret inventory? Do tell!
Also, congratulations!I am curious about this rejection theory. My vin is 186xxx and it was in almost perfect condition. One issue was the charge port door which they are coming out to replace (it wasn’t aligned properly, works perfectly). So I know my car wasn’t a rejection. That’s why I am confused that there is the theory that anything before 200xxx is a refusal.

My thoughts exactly….. I mean "radar shortage? Scrap it!" Then "lumbar shortage? Scrap it!"
I figured their continuous improvement process would be incremental upgrades and not a "we can’t source it, so rip it out and increase the prices" approach. This is very disheartening. My on hold order is looking less and less exciting with each of these changes.
What will be removed next?
Elon just confirmed on Twitter that they removed passenger lumbar support only because logs showed they were not used often or ever in most vehicles.
Said the price increases were due to supply chain and raw materials cost increases.

Of course he does not care about how this will devalue the car in secondary markets when compared to those that have both the radar and passenger lumbar support. Its one thing to take things away and add them in software, but its a whole different beast to do that with hardware.
He had access to inventory in all locations to match. Fortunately there was one in Costa MesaWHAT?! No way! Secret inventory? Do tell!

No, I didn't get a chance today. I've also wondered if they store cars at another location, or indoors.
@ToneeO was taking delivery in Costa Mesa today, perhaps we can get a report.
