Refreshed 2021+ Model X and Model X Plaid waiting room
- Thread starter Tiger
- Start date
You might as well sleep at the Service Center tonight and they can wake you up with a morning coffee and donut.
I think the challenge that everyone is facing is receiving the parts.

I did this with an XC40 Recharge back in November, 2021 (when my MX EDD was April - that was exactly 5 months). I am loving the car. Volvo delivered it to my local dealer within 2 weeks and I have been driving it ever since. The Care by Volvo program is perfect for our situation here as it goes month-month after 5 months for up to 24 months - the way Tesla is going it may be the latter
. So you can just keep driving it without worry and whenever your X finally arrives, you return the car.But yeah, no complaints with Volvo at all.
Sure. Just send over the payment including shipping costs via PayPal. I'll send it out...I promise..lol.
Jokes aside. I just switched my reservation to LR with the same config (Blue, 6 seat). They gave me an estimated time of Jan. 23'.
Also, does anybody else have any experience with the GT4 (P-Car). Looking into getting a weekend car.

After I got my VIN yesterday I got a text from Tesla to setup my appointment. The only option they have is for home delivery. The weird part is the message says my delivery is for an LR. Which would be great but I ordered a Plaid.
Emailed Tesla and they said they are showing my order is accurate for what I originally placed. I asked them to confirm specifically it is a Plaid.
I'd like to believe this is true. However, part of me thinks next Wednesday I'll have an LR sitting in my driveway...

someone else mentioned their delivery was setup as a LR when they had a Plaid. They got a Plaid delivered
Windshields *should* be a stock item in the Service Center. They break a LOT. I’ve had mine replaced twice, both times, in and out the same day.
They told me there are no windshields available but they are looking for one and it could take a while. Beyond that the body panel covering the rear bumper was damaged beyond repair so they are ordering a replacement of that
should be* but in the current environment and with Tesla's logistic incompetence, I am willing to bet it isn't..... Also there has to be a slight difference between the refreshed X windshield and the old one since the entire dash where the windshield meets was changed.
Picking up my Volvo S60 today. Process was very smooth, application to delivery was just 2 days. Volvo USA has no more cars for the program, so you’ll have to individually call up nearby dealerships to see if they have any cars that qualify for that program.

i asked several SC's if u can inspect vehicles prior to paying and they said u gotta accept before they let u check out the interior also........i'm not taking delivery anytime soon but i just asked for the future
anyone else confirm this?
I imagine it has something to with syncing your smartphone to the account, to gain access to the car. On earlier models, the key fobs worked. But others have reported here that setting up the fobs is a customer responsibility (similar to the 3 & Y), after delivery. Beats me.

Thank you for sharing that video. Personally, I am impressed. A lot of things BMW got right. Parking Cameras (where is this Tesla?), open floor like the original Model S (my wife loved that, perfect place to put her purse without intruding into the front seat passenger footwell), HUD, camera washers, nav takes charging into account - augmented reality nav is cool.... I also like that they give you the choice of the built in nav, Apple or Android.
No Frunk and no 3rd row seating is an issue. Although Tesla frunks have been shrinking over the years. Reviewer claimer 340mi real world range. Very nice. I'm interested to see what the M model can do.
My wife might give it a look at some point.

with the covid delivery, you have to accept delivery electronically before gaining access inside the vehicle. There is paperwork that needs to be signed, so I guess you can refuse to sign the paperwork if there are issues?
Too bad BMW did not continue down the EV path they started with the i3/i8. They could be ahead of Tesla. A big thing now is Tesla has the Supercharger network which is expansive and just works.
Also, be careful with CarWow reviews. They derive income as a car finding and price negotiating service.
