Refreshed 2021+ Model X and Model X Plaid waiting room

Tesla never offered wood for Plaid MX

Tesla offered wood interior for Plaid in mid 2021 because carbon fiber was in short supply. Later, they changed it so that carbon fiber was the only "option".

Tesla Quietly Removes Wood Trim Interior Option for MS Plaid

Any other potential Plaid owners infuriated over the decision to remove the wood trim interior option from the Plaid models? It's no longer available on the configurator on the website. For some, the Long Range now offers a more luxury interior than the more expensive model. Wtf? Not everybody...

Tesla Removes Wood Trim Interior Option for Model S Plaid - TeslaNorth.com

Tesla has quietly removed the wood trim option for its Model S Plaid electric sedan (via Reddit). The wood trim option was added back in May 2021. The Model S Plaid currently comes with a standard black interior with carbon fiber décor. Previously, a walnut décor was available for Plaid...

We experienced this issue a couple weeks back on our new Model S. The issue happens even if you are financing through Tesla. I was trying to click on the Detail link to see if the $2k discount had been applied and accidentally clicked Pay. It immediately submitted the payment and marked it as paid, without asking me to confirm payment information. It just went ahead and used the bank account on record from our last purchase. We tried contacting several people at Tesla but they all said they couldn't do anything. While the bank account on record didn't have the $54k in it, the bank went ahead and sent the money to Tesla and the account had a large negative balance the next day. The following afternoon, we were able to move money over to cover it and fortunately didn't have any insufficient fund fees. Tesla definitely needs to add a payment confirmation to the Pay button and allow the user to cancel out or change account information.

Holy cow! Your bank is really nice.

I know that, but that was only for MS. I went to wayback.com and looked back during the summer to see about that.

This is the MX configurator at the same time when model s plaid offered wood trim and you can see there is no option.

Here is model s plaid and you can see there is an option for wood/carbon-fiber trim. it was not an option for the Model x because production had not started yet,

Ah yes. It was an option on our Plaid Model S but we ordered the non-Plaid X, so I never noticed it wasn't offered there.

With that said, I do see the piping at 4:04 in the video, but I guess that could be a different vehicle (as it has carbon fiber as well). Seeing as he reportedly only had the car a couple days, I would guess he showed two different cars. Hopefully the buyer he sold it to got a real Plaid!

My EDD switched to TBD the first time from February this morning

Just curious are you also in the bay area..? Mine ordered in May and have exact config as yours.

 

[CaptanAdequate]

Didn't watch it, but screenshot looks borderline illegal....

Haha... Agreed. I didn't see that screenshot until after I posted. The video is safe though. Just some dude showing off a Model X Plaid.

 

[jbrowdy]

Sure would be nice of some of the Plaid VINs start showing up outside of California. I lived in Hermosa Beach for a year. Incredible experience. Knowing what I am missing there and seeing all these Cali VINs is acutely aggravating my FOMO

 

[Tesless]

Yup.They called and said “Bad news your order for a Model X for only $79K has been canceled, Good news is for only $8k more you can get the new refresh Model X and since you had a 2020 order…. You’ll be on the priority list for the first deliveries“
like a sucker I sit and wait… Pissed enough to cancel the order but smart enough to buy it for $87K when ever they make and deliver it and then probably sell it for serious $$$$$$.

Smart! Definitely wait and make that $$$$$ hopefully it won’t be much longer … especially if your not in need of another car right now. We are 3 drivers with only 2 cars right now waiting for our X. I’ve had to rent a car several times during this year because we need a third car!
Waiting patiently………..

Ready to pick up my LR X in a few days. The concerning thing to me is that the car is verified to have 128 miles on it. The car was assigned to someone else and now matched to me. Not sure why the original person did not take delivery (SA don't know why the first person did not take delivery).

1. can someone post a check list sheet on what to look for?
2. If there is something wrong w the car, should I take delivery anyways and sell it for a profit? I'll take the profit and buy a Plaid S.
3. I'm thinking if I reject the car I'll be back in the waiting list (probably wait another year).
4. I asked the SA about the $2,000 credit for ordering pre refresh model. but they "have not heard of that".
Any advice?

 

[Q-ship]

I found it. Had a 340 mile drive ahead of me. Would not have wanted to find it a couple of hours later. However I don't get all of the credit, a couple I was talking to right before my appointment time told me that someone else had just taken delivery of a MY that had a nail in the tire.

Unbelievable. I have never seen or heard of this happening with a brand new car. Add it to the checklist, I suppose.

-just got off the phone with an SA, he said the car was for delivery to someone else, but that person was out of town, and could not sign doc for home delivery. Story check outs, since that person lives about 50 miles away from delivery center.

Weird. My rep offered home delivery to me until he saw I lived 48 miles away. Max here in Houston is 30 miles. So someone lied. If it’s my dude, he’s gonna be hurting soon and lucky I haven’t received an MX yet.

 

[Cutch26]

I’ve been constantly updating my app with all these vins popping up even tho I don’t want to take delivery till mid March to avoid having a brand new car get covered in salt in the dead of winter.. but non the less I keep checking and feeling disappointed when there is no vin

30 miles of Houston driving is like 300 miles' worth of stress elsewhere.

 

[KidsEyeDr]

we are getting darn close to being page 800+ VINners! Help, Elon!

Very true. Lol.

Wow! Worse that SF Bay Area traffic or LA?

Only been to Austin and the drive was pleasant.

If you look way back before MX Plaid was in production & was being spotted in the wild , Photos at that time were in different publications showing plaids with wood trim- let's not forget our countrys supply shortages for the last year & continues with no end in sight - Tesla is continually working hard to produce vehicles no mather what obstacles are thrown at it ...... I remember 1 particular photo in Teslerante,of a parked Black MXP with a dog napping on drivers side waithig for driver to return. It is still available & if you google it.....as follows for those that don't know how it's done..... Search >Model X Plaid & click on images at the top of the page -You will run accross it many pictured. So it's very possible that reseller of MXP is legit.

But expensive. Lots of toll roads in Austin. I was not used to that.
