Sorry. I changed my Model X *without* paying the price increase at the refreshed rates. However, I was warned that it could delay my delivery date. I initially ordered the white exterior but after seeing a sea of white Tesla’s at charging stations and the rising costs of colored PPF, I decided to go with the black Model X instead.

Keep it the garage, don’t drive it and dust it daily.Wow very nice. How do you keep the black exterior shiny?

Works for me! And I have a white car, although it is not apparent since I keep it covered, too
Fellow Canadians, it appears order modifications can be made now while keeping your original base price: Tesla customers in Canada can now edit their design and maintain original pricing [Update]I can second this. Was told by Jorge today that US orders can make modifications while keeping the base price. Canadian orders, however, currently cannot
I don't see the Edit Design link though. Maybe need to check with Jorge (sorry Jorge)
Well this would show that you place absolutely no value on order date. I would think that most people would expect that if they ordered a car months or even a year before someone else that they ought to get it first, and believe it or not most people probably believe that someone who ordered in January would get their car before someone in February. That February orders would come before March etc. Of course there would be some variations based on location and batch manufacturing. The fact that there are any Dec 2020 or January 2021 orders left undelivered while thousands with much later dates have been delivered shows that indeed they have been deprioritized. Next time before you throw shade on someone else, you may want to consider your own “misleading” data and consider if you are including all data and factors. You can do better

No. They typically take cars fresh off the assembly line out to run around the track to see if they're operating properly. Mine arrived with 15 miles on the odometer.
Well...
This is the obligatory orderversery post. A year ago today we finally ordered our starship. It is nice to see continued movement, but it still feels like it is going to be a while yet. I actually saw a 7 seater downtown Chicago just before Christmas, but the recent deliveries give me a small measure of optimism.
A continued thank you to the community here. In a twisted bit of irony, it will be sad to not check this thread 43 times each day.
Wanting something is better than having it, right?
EDIT: Nah!

Well, I’ve given this matrix headlight thing some thought. I was debating on it would be worth delaying.
I honestly don’t think so.
I see myself keeping my Model X 4 years tops, and I’ll likely want the latest and greatest. At that point I feel like the software for them to actually operate as matrix lights still won’t be 100% so it won’t really be worth the wait.
I’ll just take what I get.
My first Model Y didn’t have matrix, and they really weren’t that bad. Plus I’ve had the model Y almost a year now, no sign of them actually operating as matrix.

Delaying in order to get the next rumored configuration is challenging at best.
I’ll be happy to get the car I ordered close to 400 days ago configured the way I ordered it. New features/options will be an added bonus, but I would never delay an order in anticipation of “the next great thing”. Life’s too short.
I think this is the mentality I’m using too. There will always be “the next thing”. Once enough pile up I’ll just trade in and get the new one. Waiting until a certain feature is available that is rumored is a never ending cycle.

On thing is like to see is Carioke in the refresh MX or MS. Any recent deliveries confirm it is still missing?
When we originally considered the X the standard finishes were lacking, the battery was too small, and quality was reported as awful. I’d say any X these days is miles ahead and much better value (unless you ordered after price increases). We missed out on having the X for 4 years, but will be worth it in the end. But I wouldn’t hold out for a smaller feature.
Matrix headlight were going to be my consolation prize for having to wait until July or later, but I’d rather have the car sooner. We don’t drive at night much anyway.
