When you think of the things you can customize in the car, compared to some of the options you get with other brands, there's very little in it for Tesla. Kind of a brilliant strategy to simplify manufacturing. They can get 95% through the build process and "customize" it at that point.
Exactly. Stuff comes out of assembly line without line being shut down. They already know the mix of colors and interiors people order every year based on the past orders and that's what they plan to. Then they just run the production in the most optimal way they can to maximize productivity.
Whether you ordered it or not, its getting made.

By waiting. When you get the VIN, you can track it on the current equivalent of EV-CPO or similar. Probably gone in a few weeks.
Or you could proceed with the order, inspect the car, and if not perfect, in good faith, reject that VIN.
Right now, I see no downside to order a MS after the holiday.
Maybe try not making stuff up
Wiki - Model S Delivery Update
Ordered an Ultra Red with cream and round wheel Plaid on Oct/20 in Vancouver. Delivery date was Dec2-Dec31 for nearly the entire time, then when Dec2 hit the date jumped to Feb18-April14..... I'm wondering if there was a glitch in their automated system since I had not yet had a VIN assigned...

Doesn’t seem like adjusting a panel gap would be all that difficult.Maybe try not making stuff up

Did you inspect it to see if it still had panel gaps each time it was assigned?
Ok, so this partucular car was ‘factory gated’ on 10/26/2023. Initial delivery (that I rejected) was on 11/09/2023. The car is still in inventory as of 12/09/2023, already assigned 3 times to me. Not much of a help to wait. Re-ordering would likely resulted in just paying multiple Order Fees, but getting the same car.
That was your first mistake, don't pay until you have inspected the car.
But it seems like they cannot sell that car so they keep pushing it onto you since they've got your money. I'd change the configuration of a car a little bit, different color of exterior or interior or probably the cheapest, change the steering wheel since that can be replaced after the fact... This will cause system to assign you a new vehicle.

True. Took almost three months for my refund from a Service visit. But 250 is a small price to pay for the car you want.
Question. Why are the rear seats perforated as well if they are not ventilated ?
Also 3 week update. Still love the car. Took it on another road trip. Family was singing Carokee on the drive and watching movies in the back. Kids said there was so much room. Wife suggested driving from VA to niagra falls in it. Coming from model 3.

Perhaps so they match the front seats in look
