Successful delivery today in Fremont. Confusion at the gate - so please take note if you are arriving for a tour and pickup. The gate guard told us to go to Door 1. We parked, couldn't get in. The security guard at Door 1 told us to go to the building on the far side of the Customer Delivery Center. Arriving there, we were told no, we should go directly to the Delivery Center, which is what we'd planned originally. If you are taking delivery AND taking a tour, you go to the Delivery Center. If you are an investor, you go to the building to the left of the Delivery Center, and you will start your tour with a guide at Door 1. I'm guessing most of us reading this thread are like me, so
go to the Delivery Center if you want your tour. They start directly out of the store there. Maybe everyone knows this already.. but it's worth repeating.
The car was well detailed - there was some headliner fuzz in the pano roof which we removed by hand. Looked like Bret Michaels circa 1988 had half of his mop caught in the thing. Otherwise, no issues I could recognize.
The tour was good and entertaining even for my young(ish) son. He was the minimum height so he was welcomed - and really enjoyed it. The factory was buzzing with activity, and watching them press the blanks with the mechanical and hydraulic presses was our favorite part. I definitely recommend it.
The car got home safely and well. I only used 346 wh/mi over the 66 miles home. Considering I was nailing it any chance I got (within speed limits), I was surprised I fared so well. It was raining from time to time with sunny patches so I was selective in my spirited driving, but we had fun regardless.
I have my Rial Luganos to mount - hopefully tomorrow or Thursday. Here's a photo of my son, very happy, with the car as delivered. I'll post a better/clearer photo once the wheels are mounted.
Congrats!
