Refreshed 2021+ Model X and Model X Plaid waiting room
- Thread starter Tiger
- Start date
I mainly got the offer from the web site, although the app is updated with the information. After every offer, you are asked to approve it or reject it. It is also very easy to change your mind and cancel the trade-in at any time, or the entire order for that matter.
My trade-in was worth roughly $80,000 so I needed to chip in another $21,000. So I moved the cash into my checking account. So I could perform an ACH transfer from my bank to Tesla. If you prefer you can obtain a cashiers check from your bank and/or loan proceeds and carry it with you to the pickup appointment. Tesla is pretty efficient and flexible with ingesting $$.
I did not really want to pay them before knowing for sure, they could actually deliver the car. So before I paid them, I made an evening trip to the delivery center to find my car. I found it quickly. It was still quite a mess, but I could at least check it from the outside to make sure it was largely intact. I paid for it the evening before my appointment, but I could have waited until the actual appointment, but I didn't want to deal with any last minute glitches with the payment.
Yeah stealth “freezes” the paint (no reflection) but it’s the actual paint you’re seeing through the wrap. Very cool stuff and looks amazing on MSM.
No shakes at all. Smooth as silk, especially and even at full launch.
Where are all those "Tesla only cares about highest profit! They only care about the most money!! whine cheese whine some more" Where you guys all at?

Just letting everyone know the vins have slowed down because they are switching to the matrix head Iights. Just kidding.....just wanted to stir things up as usual.
Just got the text that I got vinned!
This is probably the start of the Bay Area quarter end push

I got VIN’d and am obviously a very early order, so the least profitable imaginable. Quarter end FTW. Downside is I’m drinking a Negroni in Piazzi Vecchi in Florence so am jumping through hoops to finish a June 25th delivery from Fremont when I’m not actually there. But the Negroni is delicious. Ok. Maybe it has been more than one.

MX LR Red/cream 6 seat FSD 20” wheels 5/2021 order
Got a chance to ride in a friend’s Refresh X Plaid today. My first time in one. WOW!!! Super smooth and super powerful. He’s trying to keep his score up to get into FSD beta, so didn’t go crazy but one short pedal to the floor took the air out of my lungs lol. Am I bitter that he only ordered a few months ago and already got his? Of course not 
.
Got to talking with my wife about the ride and plans to install the wall charger in the garage so it can mock me for a few (many??
) months. She suddenly expressed concern about charging in the garage. Should I be concerned? Seems like most folks here are charging inside vs outside.

It's been a hot week here in SoCal. The air conditioning in my current car is broken, it broke about a year ago and it's a really expensive fix so I opted not to do it. Right around the time it broke I ordered the XLR, and then I sweated my way through the entire summer thinking "at least I won't be driving this car next summer 
". The joke was on me 
". The joke was on me No concern at all. In fact, in the north I would not even think of owning a Tesla without a garage. Folks charging outside probably don’t have a choice.Got a chance to ride in a friend’s Refresh X Plaid today. My first time in one. WOW!!! Super smooth and super powerful.

Can a fault occur, of course. Same as many appliances or ICE vehicles.
Tomorrow is the big delivery day! Pick up at 11:00. 3 days shy of our order-versary. Already paid in the Tesla app. They said to allow 15 minutes to give them our M3 trade and pick up our model X. I’m sure we’ll take a lot longer to look at the car over. I am hoping that it will be perfect as has been the case with some on here. Unless there is something major, we will likely accept delivery and set an appointment to fix whatever we find. It’s finally here! Probably won’t sleep much tonight. I feel like a kid going to Disneyland tomorrow

On another note - has anyone looked at these? We had this wrap on our M3 wheel and just ordered for our MX yoke. Awesome with the white interior!! Still looks new after 4 yrs. Company is called TWRAPS. They have the markings for the turn signals, horn etc.

How does that work if we decide to reject it due to repairable issues? Would they give us back our trade-in car?Tomorrow is the big delivery day! Pick up at 11:00. 3 days shy of our order-versary.

As a quick follow up, it's been 48 hours since the conversation between my wife and the KC SC manager and not a peep from him! It kind of reinforces what we're all feeling from Tesla, hope that in the end gets dashed...
Great question. I kind of took a leap of faith. I’ll let you know how it works out..hopefully I don’t have to take an Uber back to Louisville lol. It would have to be pretty bad for me to reject it. I think most recent deliveries that I’ve been tracking are much improved quality.
I feel sorry for you. But that first ‘promise’ by sc sounded so empty.
Why bother looking the car over? You already paid them. Shaking head. Inspect before paying.Tomorrow is the big delivery day! Pick up at 11:00. 3 days shy of our order-versary.

My MXP has the same VIN range, red as well, it also manufactured in June 20. Guess they did lots of red painting on that day. I’m picking up on Sunday, fingers crossed it comes perfectly.
I am thinking same thing, if I reject it, I want to take my trade-in car back
