Master Thread: 3 Delivery experiences

Are any of you lucky people who have taken a Q4 delivery willing to take a pic of the USB ports behind/under the phone charger panel? I'm looking to buy a USB hub and have heard so many conflicting stories about what USB ports are there now? Would greatly appreciate it 👍

Yea! Happy to.

Can you confirm any of the new rumored changes? Namely lithium ion 12v battery, rear window laminated double paned glass, 5G modem, or AMD processer?


Hmmm i'll need to check the rest but My processor is Intel Atom. I have a 2022 M3 LR.

Nice to see good delivery stories. Just curious but how do you know you have a 2022? I understand Tesla doesn't do model years so I assume the only way you could claim to have a 2022 is if the VIN number indicated a 2022 build date?
My Tesla account lists the car as a 2022. Also, when I submitted the VIN to Progressive for insurance, their system identified it as a 2022 model.

I’ve attached a screenshot from my Tesla account.

See that "N" in the VIN? That means "2022" (so I've been told).

Picked up my M3LR from the Colorado Springs location on 12/20... easiest new car delivery I've ever experienced. Signed 2 pieces of paper, walked me through connecting my phone to the car, in and out in 10 minutes. So far, everything seems to be in place and working, nothing missing, no panel issues, no funny noises, no weird smells. Had to drive 360 miles home to New Mexico, so that was good shake down cruise. Only thing that scared the *&^% out of me was the first the "phantom braking" thing happened, which was on Raton Pass... otherwise, couldn't be happier.

I have heard that phantom braking occurs due to the fact that Tesla Vision sees ghosts suddenly appearing in front of the car. But it is not exactly. )
 
Brand new m3 picked up yesterday in the rain. Still raining. Are my damn doors different colors lol? Or are the clouds and my brain messing with me?

I can’t pick out any color difference from the photos. It’s the clouds. Check out the difference in colors an hour apart (also indoor vs outdoor)… Outdoors it looks black

No communication, ever changing dates, info and numbers, could not find my $$wire for 6 days! Then Tesla required home delivery because Santa Fe not authorized. Delivery driver asked me to meet him on highway because he’s a disabled vet and can’t walk far. Really? Picked up my car at gas station AND IT WAS COVERED IN MUD!!! Wow! Like the car but not sure I’d ever go through this again. Shameful.
