Took delivery today!
Did a full inspection, walk-through on the car. Almost everything was excellent, just a few small scuffs/scratches on the interior plastics, but nothing major.
Panels were great, paint, glass, doors, etc. You can tell they have stepped up their game on the MY quality control.
I really like the new console vs the first gen version.
I'll get some pics up later. Too busy tinkering
Very close to my build on order but I have the tow hitch. Headlights will likely be the next update which is what I’m painstakingly waiting for. From what I’ve noticed on the threads, it still has not happened as of builds last week. Hoping you get one of the first ones with headlights. Congrats!
Very nice - congrats!! I will get my MYLR white from Mt.Kisko in two days - I can hardly wait!
Same here. In San Diego, ordered in early Jan. No VIN yet. SA has no idea when it'll come either. "Thinks" it'll come in the next 10 days.
Yep. Took care of insurance and payment today. I'm guessing, since it is Sat payment won't actually go through right away (Testla site says something suggesting up to 2 bus days), and so won't expect delivery until perhaps Monday. We'll see.
They called me Sun morning, despite having a Mon appointment for delivery, and told me "car is ready, mind if we deliver today?". Said OK. 2 hrs later car was delivered, contactless. I spent about an hour inspecting it and found virtually no problems, certainly no panel gaps. Found a small scratch that may not even be worth it taking care of on left front quarter panel. I may have some light buffeting on rear hatch, but need a good drive to verify. That's it.
I did this same calculation on my new y, picked up last week and I get 77.4 kwh. Is your picture of an older model 3 or y?
For my MY LRAWD born 3/19/21 I get 74. I don't think this calculation is very reliable though.
I do think the calculation is fairly reliable as I have used the energy graph in the past for trips and it typically follows the curve pretty accurately. Also, found this youtube video of someone using an app called "scan my tesla" that reads data from the battery bms. 30 seconds in you can see the nominal full pack reads 77 kwh and 33 seconds in you can see full pack when new at 77.8 kwh, and below that it shows degradation of 1%. The theory at this point is that Tesla is software locking 5% of the battery perhaps to increase the range at a later date or to reduce battery degradation.
To be honest-Tesla is getting away with *sugar* that no other car dealer would. I understand the hype and support that they deserve, but seriously I can't see myself looking at Lexus that is being delivered with the same quality issues. Panel gaps, scratches, paint chips-seriously this is unacceptable on every level. We're not talking about 20k KIA type cars here. With all the add ons I'm spending more than 70k on MY LR7 and the last thing I want to see is any of the above. Besides can any of you imagine i.e Audi Q7 being delivered in the same fashion? Of course there is refusal but again-no other car dealer would get away with having buyer wait months for their order just to deliver one with issues. Just my 2c.
