I have had my Plaid for just a day now. 438 VIN. Currently stuck on 2021.12.4.9. Delivery was smooth and the person delivering was friendly and helpful.
I don't mind the yoke, but I don't really see the benefit. The usability of the turn signal buttons is OK, but I struggle with finding them without a quick glance. I shouldn't have to do this on such an expensive vehicle, but I think I am going to put some sort of "dot" or textured sticker to the left of them so I can easily tell which is which by feel.
Alignment of panels and such seem fine, much to my surprise. Car was delivered fairly spotless and clean, including some protective plastic still being around, which I don't mind since peeling it off is half the fun. The only "dirt" discovered were some dead bugs on the inside-side of the mirrors, I assume picked up during transport with the mirrors folded.
I have no rattles (yet). It is leagues quieter and smoother than my Model 3 LR AWD. The MCU is much more responsive. Though sometimes my "swap sides" button disappears and I'm not yet sure why or how to get it to come back. Switching gears on-screen isn't actually as bad as I expected.
Homelink was included on mine and setup was quick and easy. Samsung S21 phone paired via Bluetooth and as a key quickly and easily. Delivery included two key cards, two key fobs, and a pre-installed 128GB USB drive (looks like the one sold in the accessory store).
The vehicle is stupidly fast. I actually turned it down from Plaid to Sport, because it was too punchy and I felt like I was going to get myself in trouble. I don't honestly know if I will ever be able to truly "floor it" like I could in my Model 3, because it covers so much distance so fast I would run out of space. It seems like that power is available at pretty much any speed, too, and it is just mind-boggling instant and fast.
I'm new to the MS line, so the adaptable suspension isn't something I know much about just yet. I have it on Auto and it seems fine. I prefer Comfort steering, but that's just me.
So far, I am happy. I tend to be someone who goes through cars pretty quickly, changing cars quite often. I actually see myself keeping this for a long time as it really has all the amenities I like and I highly doubt I will ever need more power. Guess we'll see.
