I thought this too but I was told that the 162 top speed is part of the performance upgrade package and thus the stealths only hit 145. No unlock available, despite videos online showing a spoiler is needed for the upgrade, from what I was told. Not a big deal tho, unless you’re on a really long straight track
Edit: I’ve also asked this question on reddit and several have tested it and repeatedly only hit 144 mph. Maybe they’ll offer 162 unlock in the future?

I was told from the SA that once a VIN is assigned you have about 3 days to grab the car. So I’m not really expecting my VIN for like another week, I wouldn’t fret too much.
My plans were to be out of the country December 20th-January 5th. So I'll definitely miss delivery if I leave before I've got the car.

Anyone having issues logging into their Tesla account? Maybe it's down due to adding VINs to our accounts? wishful thinking.

Yeah, I've been having issues. I've been chatting with a Delivery Specialist and my Sales Advisor and they are telling me that even their systems are being buggy.
Haha i literally just made the same comment in another thread. Same issue, same wishful thoughts
Now we can't even see our order........Haha i literally just made the same comment in another thread. Same issue, same wishful thoughts

i have some bad news to report. my car series 58xxxxx is far from flawless - usual suspect of paint irregularities, blemishes, alignment issues, etc are there. same with the neighboring cars in the delivery bay.
i really needed the car, so i took delivery anyway. the damages were officially noted and photographed on employees delivery app. ill take it in for repair some time in the future.
long story:
waiting room was nonstop cycle of people for pickup. my window was scheduled for 10min, but i ended up doing inspection for 1 hour. time flew by. the delivery person was very kind and patient, so i only felt pressure vs everybody else, and that it was getting dark and closing time.
* software is 2019.31.103, not yet showing updates
* confirm dead pedal = carpeted empty slot for frunk hooks. no frunk mat. very very cheap move
* came with oem wall charger and 3rd party type 2 cable
* car only charged to 60mi. i asked for juice during inspection, enough to get me home.
* front bumper has some minor blemishes. these are equivalent to what i would pick up on the road, anyway, so these i forgave.
* delivery person picked up significant paint bump on A pillar. almost like a booger that was painted over.
* dark scratch on door edge. very clearly it "doored" into another car or object
* various other minor paint blobs elsewhere
* 1 side sensor pod was not flush
* C pillar not aligned side to side
* front lamp gap not even side to side
* hood gap not consistent (planar wise)
* minor chrome trim alignment issue (worse on other cars)
* small dark orange flecks of paint on hood, and smaller more faint yellow blobs under the paint.
so most of those alignment things i consider minor, but the (1) colored paint thing on the hood (2) large paint bump on A pillar and (3) door edge blemish , is pretty disappointing. and dare i say, wouldnt be delivered by bmw or mbz in that condition. and im a little peeved about the frunk hook and mat and dead pedal thing.
but a new car is always cause for some joy

Damn man that’s terrible. I’m sorry. I hope they get your car fixed soon. I understand having to take delivery. If I have this issues I would still have to take deltas well since I already sold my car.i have some bad news to report. my car series 58xxxxx is far from flawless - usual suspect of paint irregularities, blemishes, alignment issues, etc are there. same with the neighboring cars in the delivery bay.

Sorry to hear!! I feel bad for the people who basically have to take delivery even with imperfections or wait til next year and miss the rebate. Hope everything gets fixed soon.i have some bad news to report. my car series 58xxxxx is far from flawless - usual suspect of paint irregularities, blemishes, alignment issues, etc are there. same with the neighboring cars in the delivery bay.

Do you have any pics you can post of the stuff that is messed up?
Completed all my loan/paperwork stuff this morning and now anxiously awaiting a 12/29 scheduled pickup. Hopefully they can bump me up!
VIN is 641xxx for a M3P, MY2020.
VIN is 641xxx for a M3P, MY2020.
just a few examples. each is pretty small in isolation, but imagine there are 3x of each. in case of the yellow paint spots, more like 10x.

Thank you. Just trying to get an idea of what to maybe look for. I'm sorry that you have to deal with this. Hopefully tesla makes everything right. Your pictures are definitely helpful for the rest of us that have yet to pick ours up.
