Rumor is that it's because the car hasn't been crash-tested without the front plate, so they're legally prohibited from removing it. Contrast that with the 3, which was crash-tested without hte front plate and it is regularly delivered without the front plate holder.I understand it's fairly simple to remove and takes a few minutes for anyone to do, but seriously, I do not understand why all Tesla Service Ctr's refuse to do this after we spend > $100k (and some of us > $146k) on a vehicle that has that stupid front plate holder in a state that does not require it? I mean they can fix just about anything on any Tesla vehicle BUT won't remove the front license plate holder? Really...WTF??? Again, not one to complain much anymore about Tesla (as a company and its policies and business practices) but this is simply PISS POOR Customer Service!

Yeah okay...calling BS on that that excuse.
I don't know any car I've ever bought and owned in FL that came with that front plate holder. It just doesn't exist here.

They won’t remove it in California because state law requires it.I understand it's fairly simple to remove and takes a few minutes for anyone to do, but seriously, I do not understand why all Tesla Service Ctr's refuse to do this after we spend > $100k (and some of us > $146k) on a vehicle that has that stupid front plate holder in a state that does not require it?

That's not the reason. Virginia requires it too but my 3 was delivered without it at my request.

Surprised no one is talking about this. This must be the only verified picture of the 19s?
No apology needed! Appreciate the follow up post.

So the new 3.1 versus what? What was there before the $5K price increase? Is some /s missing somewhere?

What am I missing? It has always been 3.1, correct?

On the Model 3/Y the front plates are installed at the delivery center in states that require it. It is really easy to get a 3/Y without the front plate. On the Model S, the front plate bracket is installed at the Fremont factory.

It’s always been 3.1. I assume it’s a missing /s
I mean what, draggy scores and other things are way more important than seeing the first gray 19" rims.
Holy Shite…. A refresh with 19s !! 1st one I’ve seen. Okay maybe there’s some hope

I took my LR car in for service today to have some issues I discovered at delivery fixed. The car will be there for a couple of weeks, so they gave me a Model S loaner car. I guess they still do offer Model S loaners, but maybe they don’t offer them to 3/Y owners. Not sure 
Anyways, I have a vegan leather defect with several wrinkles on the drivers seat bolster and I asked if they could have the upholstery shop fix it. He said he would just get me a brand new drivers seat from Fremont. Has anyone ever heard of this? That sounded a bit extreme for a small section of vegan leather.
