So a little background. I ordered my car end of May/early June. Like 3 weeks later they upgraded the models with faster 0-60, free air suspension etc. I didn’t find out they did that till July. I called the local sales guy and inquired about if I was getting the faster times or not, and I was willing to cancel my order and reorder. I mean better performance plus air suspension would have been worth 2500.00 to me easy right? He looked at my build date and told me it was last week of June and said my car was one of the first week after getting the new drive units and parts. There was a way to check your URL of your specs to see if you had the D00 or 01, to verify you had the hardware, which I did. I thought I was set. Took delivery August 3rd and asked about confirming I had the faster times and service center new nothing about it. I in fact didn’t. I asked about uncorking which some people I read had requested to upgrade and they knew nothing about it. I was pretty happy about my car so I let it go. But I was really upset for awhile I didn’t get the performance boost. I also read some people where told they couldn’t get it if their spec when ordering didn’t have it so I didn’t bother to put in an official service request.
Anyway after hearing the news, I went down yesterday and inquired and they said they would call me today. Had to run my car against their official list of cars that could be uncorked. I was told it was only like 10,000 vehicles approved. Got the call back this morning tha I was on the list and am bringing my car in tomorrow for the two hour update. I couldn’t be happier. It was my only sore spot in the entire process of buying a car with Tesla.
