    You know, I wouldn't take the word of anyone at Tesla right now as to what the seats can do. I think half of them have no idea and are making false assumptions. If indeed it turns out to be a true small boondoggle (the reality, not the communication), I think the most likely cause is that the demographic of most Tesla employees doesn't match the demographic of most of the folks reserving Model Xs.

    Middle seat does not have a LATCH system. Although, I'm sure you can fit three narrow seats such as Foonf using seat belts.

    You can see that LATCH is not available in the middle seat from the interior photo. LATCH indicators are those small circles near the bottom of the seat back.

    Missing armrests is odd.

    Yup. Especially if they're going to call them Captains Chairs. Although, I don't think Tesla has used that term yet.

    Then again, a non-folding second row is odd too so what should we expect? ;-)

    On the other thread I posted the answers to my questions about the Six Seat Interior. There are no center armrests with the Six Seat Interior option.

    Configuration of 2 captains chairs and 6 seats is available now. - Page 11

    Just as Tesla added a console in Model S, I certainly hope for center armrests in the future. The third party accessory companies are going to love Model X.

    Any new configurations in the last 6 days ?
    Just trying to gauge how quickly the Sig X deliveries might start

    All the Signature folks have been invited to configure already.

    No further invites to configure appear to have been sent out. Looks like all signature USA reservations holders have been invited, but no updates on any expected deliveries yet. Will be interesting to see if the first batch of USA production reservation holders comes before signature deliveries. That would be a very good sign some deliveries would be forthcoming!

    So where does that leave the Canadian Sig reservations ?

    Hopefully not a repeat of the Model S productions delivered before signatures unless there are CND gov approval issues again.

    I did receive a "Your order has been modified" email from Tesla today with the Six Seat Interior change. This appeared earlier at My Tesla, but maybe they waited until the end of the week after the Launch Event to send out a new Order Agreement attachment and the list of the features. IMHO, they must be in a hurry as the boilerplate email page is for Model S, there are no wheels shown on the vehicle views and the photos are all from Model S with the wrong colors. The Model X P90D list is accurate and that is what counts.

    Canada Signatures might be first after the USA (I would even think after some production USA deliveries), but Tesla did say a global roll out after USA deliveries.

    I suppose that's ok considering my wife would still like to do a test drive even though she was at the X event and was lucky enough to have a front seat ride.

    Has anyone actually gotten/taken delivery of their Model S Signature yet? Not that I'm aware of - but then again, I don't know *everybody* on the forum - Dana Hull, Bloomberg News. [email protected]

    They did that, like, three years ago... :tongue:

    Edit: But to answer your real question, no I don't believe any Model X have been delivered aside from Founders.

    Yes, Model S Signature deliveries went out years ago. No one has taken Model X Signature delivery yet.

    yeah, I just found the top 2 google results to be content free considering I was looking for info about the author not more articles. I found it amusing, no offense intended.

    Hah. I know Dana & she's a journalist (not someone who lifts quotes from the forum or misstates the facts just to make a story). She covers Tesla and SpaceX for Bloomberg. Before that, she covered Tesla and other areas for San Jose Mercury News.

    I'd have no issue with talking with her.

    I have talked to Dana. Her reports are fair and she does her best to check facts before reporting. I agree with Bonnie...she is a OK by me.
