Congrats! Love your new car!
I'm worried about this very thing you speak of. I have a reservation also.
Until Tesla has real competition, which may or may not be coming soon, they will be able to get away with this.
The biggest worry i have is Tesla requiring payment before you are able to inspect the car. Can i ask what payment type you used, and at what point in the process you paid? I hate the thought of paying any money before i know what condition the car is in. It's bad enough that you can't drive it before any money changes hands - i know i have to accept that.
But is it possible to inspect the car inside and out before payment? If not, is it at least possible to inspect the car inside and out before accepting delivery? I've heard that the car does not get unlocked until you accept delivery. Was that your experience?
