    I am grinning for so long now, my face is starting to hurt.

    Got me good!!!! Just showed the Mrs, and she promptly got a bad case of the giggles.

    Thank you for brightening up our evening.

    Cheers, Hugh-SG

    Good grief. That’s terrible! My condolences. That thing needs PPF. Bit late now for that... the respraying of the panels would cost a fortune.

    Are you within 7 days/1,000 miles?

    Quality hasn't improved, but found one in red! Was very excited to also find a blue Tesla but it was Model S.

    It’s funny. I posted a tongue in cheek post about my Model 3 having something wrong with it sarcastically when in fact it was really good and I got flamed as being the biggest asshole on the planet. Just saying.

    Don't think about it... fanboys are vicious around here even when there are actual problems brought up.

    That's not great news! I would not expect this from Tesla. Does quality of car/paint vary by country?:rolleyes:

    HI,
    It's a joke. If you read the first entry you will see they are talking about the toy version of the car that you can buy for 3 dollars.

    So true, my first post I was flamed for not knowing how to adjust the mirrors, & keep the memory setting. Things people wouldn’t boldly say to me in person.

    Quality control is surely lacking. Where are the inspectors? (btw, great, creative post WilliamG) :)

    That's what happens when you build to a price.
