I accepted delivery on Jan 31 after waiting over 8 months for the car. I’ll provide more details with pics soon but here are my general thoughts:
1. I love the car, the features, and the performance. There’s none like it that I’ve ever driven but that doesn’t say much because I haven’t driven that many cars overall.
2. There are definitely minor quality issues that bother me a bit, specifically with the panel alignment. While there’s no ridiculous panel gap issues, most of the panel gaps don’t quite match the opposite side of the car.
3. There are places where Tesla QA is obviously making an attempt to mask some obvious issues by using bigger rubber pieces to offset an alignment issue. For example, if you look under the hood, you can see that one side has a larger rubber piece than the other to offset the alignment problem. Unfortunately, even with that workaround, there are still uneven areas.
4. While #2 and #3 bother me a bit, it’s not as bad as the finish that they seem to have missed on the underside of my rear quarter panel right above the right tail light.
I put all these (and more) into the service app within 24 hours, so hopefully they will fix them. Sadly, the earliest appointment they had was 2/24….
