Can your friend be more specific of the issues? GF3 cars seem to be pretty good to me, my wife's M3P is close to perfect with just a minor rattle coming from the driver-side mirror/speaker area - never can find what that is. All the GF4 cars I've seen recently in the showroom look flawless, but didn't drive one yet - will know better next week when my wife gets her Quicksilver MYLRThanks for those useful replies!
I'm on the Jag I-Pace forum (owning one) and recently there was a poster who has sold his I-Pace and bought a Model Y (built Berlin - 02/23). He is very happy with it but commented:-
"It is a brand new model, produced in Berlin/Brandenburg in calender week 02/2023. The quality is definitely improved compared to Shanghai models but there is enough room for further improvement." and also complained about the delivery experience (he has previously owned a Tesla a few years ago).
The delivery is disappointing but may be patchy and is a one-off experience but I'm disappointed to see that Berlin is also producing 'below par' cars - I thought the German cars would be Porsche/Audi-esque.
Is this a product of the factory, the design or the personnel making the cars?
Or maybe not generally true?
On the other hand, Fremont cars still not great judging my my October build MX Plaid, but could be the other models are better, MX has always been the worst built of the lot
