Refreshed 2021+ Model X and Model X Plaid waiting room
- Thread starter Tiger
- Start date
Today I noted 28 MS Plaids available for immediate delivery in S. Florida between Miami and Orlando. Some were even 21 model years. They could not sell them by Dec. 31 meaning there were many available in December. Are the MS Plaid drive assemblies same as MX and given the high inventory of MS Plaids, that factored into MX Plaid push in late December?

July 2021 Reservation for a X LR(blue, white/walnut, 6 seats, FSD), ETA went from January to February to TBD 2 weeks back. No changes since then, I wonder why, I am in SoCal so this is a bit more surprising.

Not yet, or at least not yet in the US. About a month ago the twitter account Tesla_App_iOS (a person who dissects the code of the Tesla app) noted that the code now supports three new colors, Deep Crimson Multicoat, Abyss Blue Multicoat, and Mercury Silver Metallic. Tesla has tested these colors in the Giga Berlin factory but tbd if those cars stay in Europe or ship to the US (unlikely). It is still not officially announced that they will be offered.
Right now the X refresh is exclusively produced in the Fremont factory which only offers the standard 5 color options. One can only hope they eventually roll these new colors out!

On another note, Giga Shanghai has seen some experimental colors in their delivery lot:

MXLR/BLK/Cream/20"/FSD Delivered 6/15/22 Flawless
I'm wondering did Elon get a hold on Santa's naughty list for this year? Maybe that's why we didn't get our MX's 
I’ve noticed similar availability within 200 miles of me in California. I think they definitely overestimated demand on that car. I believe the drive units are identical so maybe they did shift some S plaid units to X plaid based on how much they have in inventory.
i agreed, I live in Oahu and there are 12 MS Plaids available for immediate delivery on the website. I received a call last week from a SA about switching to a MS from X. She stated that they had a inventory problem. I refused but wondered if they wanted to move these vehicles why didn't they offer any incentives to switch. But I am sure that they will have a hard time moving that many plaids in the Honolulu area.
After ordering in January 2021, we took delivery of our refresh on 12/30. We have a few "sign here" tags from Tesla, as well as the steering wheel worm issue highlighted above, but otherwise so far so good.

I got moved to TBD and got a VIN 2 weeks later, im in SoCal. Completed all my pre-delivery tasks just waiting to schedule the delivery appointment.
Wondering if my Plaid TBD is a fluke or things are really happening quickly!
Would be nice if they actual communicated honestly with us so we could make decisions like that. I've got 3 cars I need to refresh, when they keep telling me my the X is on the way, and have been doing so since last year, makes is hard to make the correct decision... because ya, if my car is only 2 months away, we'll get it, wait and see how the wife likes it, and then buy the next car.
Wishful thinking I know but should we “unionize” and threaten cancellation if a good chunk of us (say Jan-Apr 2021 orders which looks to be +150 from the tracking spreadsheet) if we don’t get VINs by end of this month (EDD Feb) or if we don’t get at least some communication? I know wishful thinking trying to organize but there are a lot of people here following and hoping and praying and I’m kinda pissed seeing 2nd half 2021 orders getting their cars.
Would be a significant order book after they spent capex on this assembly line.
Could do a change.org petition with people using reservation numbers and then signing up to pledge and push this stern warning to Tesla

That sucks… what part of the country are you in?I'm a January 2020 Plaid 6 seat Fremont pickup reservation holder.... and still no VIN either
Took 10 days to get the call about delivery confirmation (from VIN assignment) and the delivery date was 2 weeks after. However, I know others, that got the call sooner. I was told that the delivery date depends on the quality issues they identify during inspection.
