Wiki Model S Delivery Update

[Daniel454]

You do realize refresh+ took all the articulation hardware out.

No, I didn't hear that. Did someone tear apart their new refresh 2.0 already?

I too had heard they likely made changes during the latest refresh, but on another thread, it was confirmed that the articulating hardware (minus the motor and maybe final drive gears) are still present after the refresh:

So let the mods begin

With another $5k price increase, I have to wonder if my RN1149 order will ever be delivered.

I keep wondering the same. My 1153 keeps getting pushed back.

I guess this is what Elon meant when he said your Tesla will go up in value after you've bought it, a new version of my Plaid would be $19k more!

 

[Rikster]

The price of my MSLR, as configured, has increased by $22k since I ordered. I was happy to take delivery of my car on 3/2! I also wonder what incentive Tesla will have to fill the older orders at such a lower price point, other than simply honoring their word (unlike Rivian).

With the ongoing long lead times to receive a new MSLR, I feel like I could resell my car today for roughly $30k more than I paid for it 2 weeks ago, which is insane! I'm happy to have it, though, and don't plan to sell it anytime soon.

hah what happens when the prices come down again, our cars are going to depreciate SO fast.

Rivian is honoring their pre-increase pricing, the same as how Tesla does it.

My White/Cream MS LR, 19" wheels, no FSD ordered March 1, was originally July, went to May-June within a week until this morning where it says July 6 - September 14. I wonder if it's the color combination that changes the options.

Nope. That is just the emotional roller coaster Tesla puts you through on the Journey to accept delivery of your vehicle. Just a taste of probably 12 more changes to come your way prior to receiving your VIN

Poop. I had my friend with Refresh 2.0 just test, and there’s no cornering lights like on Refresh 1.0 when you turn the yoke or put the turn signals on. Bummer!!!

That said, maybe this can be fixed in a software update? Not sure the capabilities present here…

Another data point to support the “cheapened” hypothesis of refresh 2.0?

Nah, I bet it's just a smarter implementation, which is capable of doing multiple things with just one light. If it can project "Tesla" onto a wall, it can likely do a cornering light too.

 

[jebinc]

No. They won’t touch that as they all are hiding out in the open by calling the vibration normal. My PoS is in for electrical faults, steering assist loss and drive failure. A real PoS this car is. Who wants to buy it?

 

[jebinc]

In the right light red looks sensational.

Yes, it the right very bright sun it looks great. In gloomy Seattle weather, not so much.

Sure, eventually. Like all of the other stuff still advertised but not delivered.

Grammatical tip of the day....

Must've is short for must have, not must of. "Must of" does not mean anything....

Placed order yesterday before price increase. White MSLR/black interior/21's. EDD July. Updated EDD today May 30th - July 25th. RN1167.

I wonder if those who ordered prior to the price increase will suffer the same fate as those who ordered prior to release last year at the lower price - like a year wait to get the car ordered while you watch recent full price orders get fulfilled much quicker? Kind of like Model Ys with FSD margin pad having priority? I’m thinking history will repeat itself here once again. Time will tell…

 

[DaBong]

I hope so! I’m an RN1149 as well. Currently 3/17-3/31 with my fingers crossed!

RN1151 with EDD 3/17-3/31 as well.
