They just took note of the scratch, and took a picture of it. They said "two to eight weeks" on the spoiler and the dual motor badge, so I think the real answer is that they don't know.
could be, in that case i imagine some wind blows in dust particles on the fresh wet paintCorrect me if I'm wrong, but isn't the "tent" final assembly, which comes after paint?
Its not really a tent, it is a lightweight metal building. They are not painting in "the tent". The paint is not going to be "wet" in final assembly. There are plenty of videos of the interior factory if you are curious about this stuff.
i assumed because i’ve seen the Tesla paint process of completeing submerging the car body in liquid prior to painting. i obviously do not know much about the production line or tent, but i do know there is gritty material under/in my paint...oh well.I don't know why people assume that the dust is getting in while the car is being painted. It's much more likely that the body is coming into the paint shop dirty and they just don't have the right processes in place to properly clean it before painting. It's still a problem they need to fix, but has nothing to do with tents or the environment inside the paint shop.
They haven't even gotten through all of the 3/31 reservation holders and barely dipped into the 4/1 people so I'd say you've got a couple of weeks of waiting minimum at this point before you get a VIN or more information.
I ordered 4/1 and I don't expect to hear from them before middle of this month for a DBM/black car... I'm still waffling on switching the interior to white since I know that will be a higher priority build and might get fulfilled earlier next month.
I got email from Delivery manager on 09/06 ~10 hrs after i posted on this forum
Consider just going with a cashiers check?I'm confirmed for a Friday 9/28 morning delivery.
I've been searching this thread as well as all threads to see what experiences people have with paying with ACH at the time of delivery. I'd like to hold my money for leverage in case there happens to be something wrong with the car severe enough that I would refuse delivery. While I know Tesla would like the money in hand, it seems odd to pay in full prior to seeing or taking possession of a car. I'd appreciate hearing about how recent Aug/Sep deliveries go both in terms of car quality and if ACH at delivery continues to be seamless.
Consider just going with a cashiers check?
if you are short you have a personal check on deck, if you are over they cut you a check in about 1 month.Ya, I might just do that based on feedback I see here (or if I don't see any definitive feedback). Two small reasons have me prefer ACH over cashiers check: 1) I'm not confident the amount I owe is exactly correct in my order summary page, and duh, now that I look at it is says "estimated", and 2) the hassle of going to pick up and then possibly return a cashiers check.
Again, those are pretty minor. If the exact amount isn't available in my account a couple of days before the delivery, perhaps I can get a cashiers check for close to the correct amount and pay the remaining balance of $0 to $2000 with a check or credit card. Anyone do that? Or am I over-thinking this? My last 3 cars purchased at a dealer were paid at time of sale with a personal check.
I hear you on this! I'm trying without much success trying to get in touch with my ISA. I want the MVPA to be final and completed like it should be prior to delivery. It'll make it smoother for everyone but especially on my own peace of mind.Ya, I might just do that based on feedback I see here (or if I don't see any definitive feedback).
