Seeing that I’m in the dc metro area and theirs a MSM performance sitting on a lot burns a huge hole in my face. Specially with how Tyson has been handling my order, I’m likely to call Springfield NJ and see if I can pick that one today and drive up there.Encouraged that 7 Performance models were added to existing NY inventory.
And six of those had the White interior.
Now if they would just send that white on white
I cannot wait to get it back.
I hope so to man I really. However I got a random email from Tesla asking me to confirm all my details about the car but all that stuff has been confirm weeks ago. So maybe it’s getting closer to DD timeI wouldn’t wish that drive on you. Or the road debris exposure of i95.
My observation that since January it was rare to find a Performance model not spoken for even demos.
And that talk about white interiors being hard to produce or limited in some respect when the bulk of this rare car were in white.
I’m hopeful the famine of matching demand in this waiting room is coming to an end
Update from yesterday's delivery
-MSM/White/FSD
-Ordered April 17
-Automated Text & VIN: April 26
-Delivery (Brentwood, TN - aka Nashville): May 03, car had 6 miles on it, was charged to 90%
Carbon Fiber spoiler installed from factory - more on that in a second. It did come with NEMA 14-50, but did not come with USB phone charger 90-deg cables.
Lots of communication (OA, Document Readiness Specialist, Delivery manager) inside 48 hours of delivery. I did have to pull info from my OA between April 26th and May 1st, but mostly because I wanted a very specific financing question answered and hounded them every day.
Delivery went very smoothly. They did ask me to sign the MVPA as my very first step. I said "may I look over the car before I sign?" They had no issue with that and were happy to let me pour over the car. It started to rain right as I got to the car so they moved my car into the service bay and gave me all the time I needed. I would rate the experience pretty high (9/10). Car was nicely prepped, the delivery specialist was clearly working very hard for me to have a good experience.
Issues (1 small, 1 medium):
- 2 small paint areas that needed light buffing (about the size of a quarter) took 2-3 minutes, rectified on the spot so I'm not counting these.
- Small: Carbon Fiber spoiler appears to be lifting up (2-3mm?) on the passenger side. Honestly, if I wasn't looking for gaps based on info from this forum, I wouldn't have even noticed. As long as it doesn't lift any more, I'm probably going to be satisfied with it as-is.
- Medium: Rear seat center console: a 6-8" gash in the leather that's on the side. Not noticeable when center console is up. I imagine they will replace the whole console pad, it seems to be held in by two bolts. They did not have any cushions in stock, of course. I have plenty of pictures (to include a picture of THEM taking a picture of it, while sitting in their service bay).
Interior and Exterior fit & finish were excellent otherwise. Gaps were great.
Drove the car 1/2-mile before loading it on the trailer for the trip to the PPF/tint shop. The car is painfully-fast!!! I did put it into Valet mode before handing the car card over to the PPF folks. I trust them, but still
Brentwood had ~4 M3P's on the lot, they had clearly just gotten a shipment. All had CF spoiler.
Overall, I love the car and would be happy to purchase from Tesla again, and would recommend the Brentwood, TN store!
