I'm not worried. Actually, I was quite impressed that they gave test rides at the unveil and showed 3 cars on stage. Wasn't it rumored not too long ago that only drawings of the Model 3 will be shown?The question is; when will people get their cars? And will people's patience run out?
Tesla have showed they can deliver, just not on time.
Yet all they have to do is deliver 1 model 3 in 2017...
Before the car goes into production, I assume. If you believe Elon, the car will go into production in "late 2017". I believe him.Sorry if I missed it, but do we have any idea on when this part 2 reveal will be?
Chances are that the employees will be getting their cars in 2017, so employees and and existing owners from the GP should have a good chance. It's everyone else that has to wait till 2018.
The only thing I worry about with fabric seats vs faux leather is the ease of cleaning, especially with kids or dog hair that likes to penetrate through and stick to cloth.
The same argument could be made for the synthetics - they're a byproduct of the petroleum industry.
Very cool. I didn't realize that. I was talking about the seat material more specifically, since we weren't comparing Alcantara to leather headliners. But I'm glad to know this.. appreciate it.Alcantara is made from oil and it's carbon neutral. You can't say so much for leather. As an added bonus, it's not slippery and it won't burn you in the summer.
Carbon Neutrality | Alcantara
I decided to go with Cloth and have a dog and 2 kids (3 & 1), so far so good. And that includes several topless/doorless nights.
My previous reply upthread wasn't meant to take sides on the economics/ethics/environmental impact argument of whether animal byproducts or a synthetic substitute should be used for car seats (there are already several threads dedicated to discussing this subject). Personally, I prefer fabric seats because they are comfortable in hot or cold, I don't slide around in them, are easy to care for, and durable. And, in the context of this discussion, they are also a "vegan" option without being declaratively so. To me, faux leather is like faux meat: I love vegetables and grains as they are, so I don't need or want them to pretend to be meat in appearance or texture.

The unveil got me very encouraged that TM has the capability to produce these cars very rapidly from what the prototypes show. Already they've come a long way nearly 2 years ahead of production release!
Elon was giggling because he's aware of his track record of being late all the time. But note that at the M3 unveil he was on time - and that's a first. I interpret it as a statement that this time around there won't be any delays.Perhaps that was why Elon was having so much fun when talking about his "hopes to meet the 2017 delivery schedule".
Listen, JBare--this is a family-friendly forum. You've got to be careful with these discussions of the bare stuff, topless stuff, etc., even though you did eventually decide to go with the cloth!![]()
