No Chinese imports that’s awesome. Good jobTrue, but we simply don't know if Tesla is having similar logistical and supply chain problems with parts. What I can tell you from my own experience is that for my company I own, we have a supplier in Germany and place approx 4-5 large 4-6+ pallet orders each year and although we've seen slight delays and screw-ups regarding the exact container ship our order gets loaded onto and when the container ships leave the German Port to come across the pond to USA, we've still been receiving our shipments in a relatively consistent fashion (albeit maybe 1-2 extra weeks from order to actual delivery to us). In addition, US Customs and the local US CFS Warehouse (where the containers are offloaded and shipments separated for each customer) have been conducting business as usual. The holdups though have been with the worldwide shipping industry but again, at least from Europe, not too terrible. Shipments coming from China though could be a completely different story. My company does NOT import a single piece from China so I really don't know much about issues in that area.

Same. Minor nuisance, but not the end of the world, and certainly not worth messing with.
I suspect that the supply chain for LR white seats is not as constrained as the Plaid white seats.
Lol that's the whole point of the experiment. If I get a VIN for the latest order first, Tesla will sure be hearing from me
So I spoke to TA this morning. My car is expected to arrive at Mt. Kisco SC on the 17th.... Shitt is about to get real with the 19s dragy tests

Nope! There isn't anything more to it but the 10k, as is confirmed by multiple people who have contacted the higher ups or have spoken to people at Tesla in person. Anyone who still holds on to the idea that, "Tesla can do no wrong" is basically an idiot.
Is there a difference for interior from LR to Plaid for seats? I wasn't aware there was, maybe I just haven't come across that info myself.
I think it's the contrast stitching and perforated sides

Bolsters lack perforations and seats lack contrast piping.

Yeah. I have two of the original HPWCs with 80amps and an S that has a dual charger, do the speed difference is significant. I supppse this won’t matter with the latest S…?

Nope, 48amps is as fast as the car will AC charge, on a 60 amp circuit now.
Hasn’t helped my RN1150 plaid black/white/cf/19. Still no EDD

The LR seats can only go 0-60 in about 2.9 seconds, whereas the Plaid seats can go 0-60 in about 2 seconds.
Easiest solution to this problem will be for Tesla to offer everyone who ordered before price hikes, a one time change to their order for a small order update fee ($10k) while still keeping the old vehicle price. That will stop people creating multiple orders and messing up their production planning.
it’s a win win for everybody

Saw the LR refresh in person. Didn't get to do anything other than look at it, but dayummmmmmm. It is gorgeous.
Just about convinced me to try to wait 6 months for my S.
*Deep breaths*
I can do this. I can wait... I think

I agree this would be a simple and low-cost option for them and us. I changed my paint and interior colors before any of the price increases and it would cost me $6,500 to go back to the basic White/black, which makes no sense. There are a lot of things Tesla "could" do but when demand is so high and any order not picked up will quickly move to the next customer coupled with the amazing reviews, they feel they don't HAVE to do anything. If they were going to do something it would have started before the 1st order was delivered. I'm sure the two quick price increases reflect high demand and some rising costs but the lack of customer focus on the order/delivery part of the business is really just a sad thing to observe.Easiest solution to this problem will be for Tesla to offer everyone who ordered before price hikes, a one time change to their order for a small order update fee ($10k) while still keeping the old vehicle price.

Sitting in waiting room now as they look at something for me.
Showed the second mirror doing same thing. He offered to replace it again and again until it is fixed. However, we do not know the cause and risk just putting another bad one on. So he will talk with Tesla to see what they know.
So if your does do it, at least report it to service so it builds case history at Tesla.
My VIN is 432 with June build.
Congrats, I just took Delivery at Mt Kisco on Sunday. Smooth relatively flat stretches of road that are suitable for a cheetah mode launch are in short supply around here though. Island dragway looks interesting though for a quarter mile run.So I spoke to TA this morning. My car is expected to arrive at Mt. Kisco SC on the 17th....

OMG I just noticed under your name! lol
Alright alright I called my SA and he assured me that even if I wanted to pay $10k extra my delivery timeline wouldn't shift. I also asked if I changed my address from California to Texas if that would make anything quicker, to which he replied, "We're an hour from the Fremont factory. If anything it would push the date to the right." So... so am I to understand that people in Florida/Texas/South Carolina aren't receiving their orders before me? If transport is an issue I would gladly drive to the Fremont factory and save them all of their transportation costs...
When I was in Seattle it was explained that the deliveries go international first, then east coast, then west coast and ENDS with California. I'm getting a lot of mixed messages here
