Yikes. This is the first supremely negative thread I have seen here. Sure there are a few with folks with minor quibbles, but this scares the snot out of me.

I'm in a slightly different situation. I have a lease running out on my current car on 12/31 so I am looking for a car to replace it. I want a model x but ideally don't want it until the end of December.

OA found a nice 100D but I have to buy it now since it's a demo with discount and there's no way to hold it.

I put money down yesterday and go on a cruise tomorrow. He says it will be ready when I'm back next week. I am trying to stall stall stall...any ideas on how to stall? I'm hoping to find things wrong with the car to make them fix it before i fully sign to start my new lease.

You do know that Tesla employees also read these forums right? There are many tactics you could use to stall, but there is a risk of losing the car. I’m sure there will be more deals next quarter as well.

No way! I fully paid for my car on 12/23/16 and the very next day went on a holiday cruise. I received my car in early March. Save to say they were the knew who stalled
