Hello all! I've posted this on the Tesla website forums but was recommended to try this site as well. So here is my post:
I wanted to know if anyone else is familiar with a major change that took place and went unannounced by Tesla. I took delivery of a loaded P85 3/22 and have been very happy with Tesla and the car. I want this company to succeed! I've expected a few problems here and there though I am very detail oriented and a perfectionist. I'm ok not having the spoiler, HPWC, and parcel shelf available at the time of pickup.
However, the entire headliner is fabric instead of the promised Alcantara as has been the case up until the 2nd week of March. This is unacceptable to me. It appears that recently the factory made a change and all cars come with the same fabric. Mine was one of the first to have had this. I was never informed. Cost savings? Im not happy about it at all and to me it completely changes the feel of the interior. I was promised a car as configured, and changes have been made without my knowledge or even approval. I'm working to see what Tesla can offer and will keep you updated. Anyone else in a similar boat?
Thanks
BTW, P85 cars up until the 2nd week of March all had alcantara and that is what I understood when I took the test drive. In fact, most of the cars on the lot had this so it is not something limited to the Signature edition.
