That's certainly surprising given that it seems like the existing rear seat (from the 6) and the middle seat (from the 5) would simply be combined to make a 7. But there's likely something I'm missing (probably related to volume chassis produced that have the necessary of hardpoint attachments below).

Misery loves company: I had the same experience with selling my 2014 Model S in December to local luxury car dealer that will remain nameless. Same story, different business.

After Tracking my 2021 field model X all night on the train through the snow storm in New Mexico …
Finally, after waiting since ordering Feb 9 2021 I got the text this morning to schedule delivery March 23! Now just have to see if the double bass fits in the six seater!
Got quotes for my Red 2018 5 seater with FSD so far from Tesla, Carmax, and Current. Awaiting Carvana’s.
Listed it on CarGuru. 20 inquiries in first morning. This should be interesting with current gas prices and production delays.

Yes, I got the call after calling Tesla, and my SA statingI had a 7 seater on order, and you need to change the order. They said OK, someone w get back to me. 3 days later I got the call, giving me two options. 6 seat MXP or MXLR 7 seater. I recommend anyone with a 7 or 5 seater MXP to call them, dont wait for them. After the change, my order was changed, and my EDD stayed “April “ untill last month when it turned to July. Yesterday it chane to March 19th-31st. No Vin yet.
cheers,
As if we need more evidence the franchised dealership model is terrible in nearly every way (with some exceptions - there are some unicorn dealerships out there, I'm told)
i got my VIN too! taking delivery next Wednesday. kind of bummed it's a 2021 VIN and not a 2022 VIN.. but at this point i'm not sure i should delay it
Picking up my MX Plaid from Mt Kisco, NY next Friday (18th). Anyone else taking delivery same day from Mt Kisco?
Rookie mistake to PPF too early...
But don't fret, I did the same thing and my car died at 80 miles due to failed main battery (not 12v). I got it back after ~3 weeks. Its a bigger issue if didn't get the car back as PPF was done. So note to others..maybe hold off on PPF until you know it is good to go

I did wait a few days before PPF and car was driving fine, no issues. Night before it charged fine but in the morning was dead.
Tow truck was able to jump the car and get it working. I’d assume if the main battery was dead it wouldn’t charge or turn on with a jump.
I would like to get everyone's opinion and past experiences with Tesla deliveries, specific to small paint issues.
Specifically for me, my scheduled delivery is Sunday. My MX arrived last night. I went by to take a look this afternoon. Vehicle looks fabulous. I will get a better look once it's cleaned up, but door and panel alignment looks really good. Paint looks good with one exception.
The only issue I found was a paint chip above taillight on the corner where the trunk closes. Pic attached.
I visited with the delivery team and raised it as an issue. It was obviously identified previously during the QC process as it is circled with a white marker and has an arrow pointing to it.
I told them that I wanted the paint chip fixed prior to delivery and even suggested that they push out delivery if needed.
What is everyone's experience with getting Tesla to fix small paint issues prior to delivery?

If you really need the room, you could remove one of the seats and still have a 5 seater.
Holy crap, I just got a VIN out of nowhere!
Ordered model X LR 6 seat black /black 22’ on 9/3/22, pushed to July, but I switched to plaid last month.
Had March 8-31 but last week changed back to July.
Still said July 5 min ago and out of nowhere I get a text saying I have a VIN, now says March 13-19!

Believe the jump was for the 12V battery in the frunk. I dont know if you can "jump" the main battery.
