Congrats! Sorry to hear about the rear cupholders. Post pictures when you get a chance.Picked up my 60 yesterday (9//14) - no rear cup holders(manufactured 8/16). I did get the last of the grey leather seats for this year, however
Update: Just got a call from Tesla plant. They have a car already made with same specs however they are upgrading with panoramic roof with no charge. I asked why they would do this and was told they are trying to make Q3 sales. They can't guarantee cupholders in rear but I figure I can get a third party add on. Has anyone else gotten a call? I will update when it will be shipped.

Can I ask a question? I swear I'm not being snarky, just honestly curious. I have seen *so* many people on this forum stoked about the rear cupholders. Is this really a big deal? I think my car is going to have them (manufactured 9/8), but I'm pretty indifferent about it.
I'm trying to remember the last time I've had someone in the back seat with a beverage. Maybe I need more friends, or more friends who drink.
According to the website, my car should be here 9/21-28, it's in transit now
That is awesome; and a P100D at that! I am excited for you.
Not considered snarky at all. For me (and my family) while I HATE anyone eating or drinking in my car (reserved only for the minivan), we always carry bottles of water with us, especially in Hotlanta. While I will not cry if I do not have them, you wouldn't believe the amount of time we have 4 plus beverages. Plus, I equate the cup holders to the addition of the USBs, which are equally important with twin 7 year olds with ipads.
Means a change was made. Some changes are not even known till down the road. So maybe when they stopped to retool for cup holders and USB ports they did something else too?
9/9 Approved my design
9/11 Went into production
9/17 Picking up in Costa Mesa
That was really fast!

Wow. That's amazing that you got the call. Pano roof at no charge sounds awesome.

I just wanted to say that this tracking spreadsheet has been incredibly valuable. I've been updating my info along the way to better understand my impatience vs reality. I do hope more people continue to post their updates, especially the last final dates. I'll complete my entry once I take delivery in the next few days. Just waiting for confirmation from DS.
My delivery date on the MVPA was yesterday, but it isn't ready yet, so that is just an estimated date. If you check the spreadsheet tracker, you'll notice they have been pushing through production in just a few days, sometimes just one day.
I just picked my car up today! It is freaking amazing! .... oh, and it has the rear cup holders!
I think it has to do with the general excitement over getting the car. Will it have AP 2.0 hardware? Will it have 8.0 firmware? Will it have upholders? Will it have USB ports? What range will I really get? What is the delivery like? What will owning a Tesla be like? Please!
Nobody will get AP 2.0 in the near term, everybody will get 8.0 firmware, and so we have to dither over the cupholder.
