No doubt. Tesla is out of it's mind to manufacture a 2023 car even on mid December 2023. Looks like they are giving out black tax edition. Lucky I didn't order black even though I ordered earlier than you. I will definitely put a hold and wait for 2024 VIN if i were you. If they still give you another 2023 after 2 weeks. Cancel the order. Most likely i will cancel my order if 2024 doesn't include the RGB and front camera yet. Will wait until Xs equipped with those then I will reorder

Source? My friend and I both ordered on 10/10 for black model x tax edition and none of us have received the vin yet.
This morning Tesla began to let me edit design, which means I can still change to any other colors/ specs atm. They are not letting us take delivery earlier than others because we chose black.
The reason he got a VIN all of a sudden can goes to someone near him rejected to take delivery.

Finally taking delivery tomorrow but stopped by tonight to sneak a peek in the lot. The top of the doors had this part exposed like the trim piece wasn't horizontally aligned. It was different from the other X adjacent when compared.
Thoughts on what this is/ how simple of a fix? I wonder if it is a water path.

It's within spec. You take what you can get at this point, or just have to wait until next year. It looks like the door is also misaligned (you can see a slight elevation.) This is also within spec. It's rare to achieve perfection on a Model X. There's also more of a gap on above the bright trim on the left side compared to the right, which is also common in all Tesla Model X's.
In fact, give me any Model X that people on here are saying that it's perfect, and I'll point out all its flaws that people don't really see. Don't trust people when they say their Model X is perfect, because it isn't. They're just not looking hard enough. People are blinded by the newness of the vehicle, and will kind of just overlook things and say they're perfect as long as there's no significant huge gaps, or leaks.
I've seen enough Model X's on here and have found flaws in pretty much every single picture that was posted on here after delivery. I just don't comment on all of them.
My advice: If none of these flaws bother you or functional wise, there's no issue (ie, no leaks) I wouldn't worry about it. It'll be impossible to find a unicorn X.

As repeated many times in this thread, no there is still no front camera, and still no ambient LED strip lighting.
It'll unlikely happen for the next several months until the orders die down and Tesla is able to catch up to demand on the Model X. No point in changing their manufacturing process when demand is high.
The Model X/S is already low priorty for Tesla, and only SHARE a production line. It took FOREVER to even get Matrix lighting, when it was already established in Model Y for quite a few years already.
I went tonight to the SC to figure out if I can pickup tomorrow due to FedChoice missing the wire cutoff. I was able to take a look at the car and there was very very little to complain about which is nice. There was minor weather stripping stuff on the top of the FWD.
12/16 at 8;00 am received vin # PF 427.... Red with 5 seat poverty.
Had to approve:
"Your model X will NOT include ultrasonic sensors and instead will rely on camera vision to measure distance to nearby objects, deliver active safety features, and provide Autopilot and FSD capability. This new approach will enable improved visibility, better object detection, and greater abilities for Autopilot in the future. Some features will be temporarily limited or inactive at delivery including Autopart, Summon, Smart Summon, and FSD. In the future your vehicle will receive access to those features via over the air software updates"
Now on to the next step.

Exactly. I’ll eat the $250. Depreciation on an equivalent 2023 model will be more than that.
Honestly, thinking about waiting until the get the automatic doors figured out before I order.
It irks me that they give you an estimated date, change it then threaten to cancel and keep your $250. Making my view of Tesla go down. Might not be a loyal customer forever.

But nobody knows (I think), if you receive the full $ 7,500 deduction into 2024

I took delivery last Wednesday FUSC transferred smoothly within the hour of delivery. I did text Tesla in my communications about the delivery and they confirmed I had "accepted" the transfer and was good to go.
A flaw is a flaw if it bothers the purchaser, and doesn't work as intended. I just can't understand why they can't get their game up. The typical excuse that we are a new company is just stupid now.

That looks like a gasket end cap that needs to be pushed in. Have them correct it before or during pickup. I took a look at mine and it is pushed in. Your doors are aligned about the same as mine.
