RN1149 and earlier, still waiting group!

[jessemiller]

I’ve been a little busy the past few days. I took delivery last Friday. For the most part the car was in amazing condition at delivery. Paint and panel gaps were very good. Interior is perfect.

Experiencing slight vibration when accelerating to 120-130. I’m not 100% sure that t is the vehicle though. I put TSportline rims on, but when I ordered themTPMS we’re not available so I had to have the tires dismounted. I’m concerned that the balancing that was done was not tight enough to support higher speeds. So, I’m not ready to put this one on Tesla.

I agree with those that say the “old” headlights are weak. Compared to literally ever vehicle Ive owned with LED headlights these are the weakest. Poor distance and dispersion. I really hope that the new lights are able to be fitted to older cars.

Other than that this thing is the freaking Batmobile.

When I get it back from Tint and PPF I’ll post pictures.

Finally! I’m hoping for one to pop today or tomorrow. The Tesla store said they were able to look in a system and it showed I should get a vin this time. So we will see. Nothing yet.

Glad you got one though!

It’s nice to see some of us old-timers finally getting VINs assigned. Hopefully we’ll see more during this end-of-quarter rush.

I am going to leave everyone on from here out just so we have some additional data points to ponder as we all eventually take delivery (I Hope). Make sure you all come back and fill us in once you have actually taken delivery!

My EDD crept up by two days from March 14-31 to March 15-29

I have been complaining all over this board about the numerous EDD moves, including the last one from mid-April to mid-May. Just a few minutes ago I changed to March 16-31. I'll believe it when I get a VIN. Until then I will remain skeptical.

My EDD crept up by two days (on the back end) from March 14-31 to March 15-29. Still no EDD.

Mine did that and then the next day I had a VIN

 

[EightYears]

Sounds good. @B-ion took delivery last week. I have delivery set for this week.

You sure? I show he got his VIN last week but I don't think he has taken delivery yet..

Updated the list. Was really hoping to see many more of us popping VIN's this Quarter.

I think we should divide the list:

Pre-RN1150 DELIVERIES TO CONFIRM:

jessemiller 1147 - BLACK - VIN received 2/17 Delivered 3/4.
B-lon 1143 - RED - VIN received 3/9

Pre-RN1150 WITH VIN (but not delivered):

Mairsile 1143 - MSM - VIN received 3/10
back9 1146 - MSM - VIN received 3/9
VicH 1147 - BLUE - VIN received 3/4


Pre-RN 1150 (NO VIN AND IN WAITING PURGATORY)

Totally good with that. much easier to read.

What’s Tesla’s motivation to deliver these cars at $20-22k less than the new current price?

The one thing, a contract. For another, “customer relations.“ I’m beginning to think the second option is non existent.

 

[EightYears]

Yeah my first reaction was ughh. Sinking feeling. Like great. I’m going to be shoved further down the list.

I do think they needed to do it and I will feel great someday when I get the car just hope it happens soon. The wife is losing her patience.

 

[BruceR61]

Of course, this morning my EDD shifted from March 15-29 to March 18 to April 5. Pissed is the best way of putting it.

At least it wasn’t a huge push. I’m still waiting for mine to do the same. Currently still have 15-29th also.

 

[Mairsile]

They are really the same thing. They can terminate the contract at the expense of the non-existent customer relations.

My appointment window was next Tue-Fri. I'm out of town Tue-Thu so had to go with Friday unfortunately. Here's hoping it's in good shape!
