Tracking P85D delivery thread

[3s-a-charm]

Oh you bet I will! Unfortunately it's looking like a rainy, or at least overcast morning again tomorrow, so they won't be pretty.




Yeah that one doesn't make sense, although we know the Recaro seats were not the only problem - just the last one they needed to solve and now catch up on short supply. Maybe you'll get your P85D on 12/21? ;-)

Ok, Mark - when does the "live stream" video of your delivery start?

I think these 3 are demo units for the local stores.

Interesting. I would think they would wait until they had the next generation seats (front and back) for the show rooms. I'd also pick a flashier color.

Yes! Yes! Stream it on YouTube. Then we we can re-watch it after!

Pro Tip: for filming:

1. Wear shirt with front pocket
2. Start recording on your smart phone
3. Place smartphone camera facing out in your front pocket.
4. Take delivery
5. Post to YouTube

Ha you guys are funny. How about I wear my biking helmet with the GoPro attached to it so I really look like a goofball?!

Seriously excited though. About to head out for the dreaded SF-Fremont commute. Luckily it stopped dumping rain so traffic should be decent. Stay tune for delivery photos!

I'll be curious if you can see a parking lot full of P85Ds while you're there.

Go-Pro? Awesome idea Marc! & definitely get it on YouTube so we can watch (& re-watch, & re-watch) the entire day!
Now go get your car! Weren't you supposed to pick it up an hour ago?!?

My first reaction was "That's a great idea!"

Have fun!! Looking forward to pics and report.

BART and then taxi/Uber may be advisable, no?!

Pacific time.

 

[DPDsModelS]

Pacific time.

I know but I am just being a petulant little brat who cannot wait for any little tid-bit of info or pix of what is eventually coming my way!

Thanks! I would have done the public transport option, but a good friend and now colleague offered me a ride - couldn't refuse ;-)

It's amazing how excited I am for you... And I don't even know you!

We abound!

Alas, mine did the same. I suppose, given that it is already mid-December that I could have worked this out for myself. In production since 11/26, reportedly fully complete and in QA at least a week or so ago.

Mine just bumped to Late Dec as well. Not surprising since our cars will likely be on the same truck to NC.

This, exactly!

 

[ariporad]

Don't take rides from strangers, unless they have a tesla.

The question now is whether or not this thread is going to hit 200 pages before the first forum member (who we now know is going to be MarcG) takes delivery or not. Looks like it's going to be close!
