It’s here and the wait is all forgotten

[BJCanadaMax]

FWIW I had to go back to the initial video to check what you meant!
Not something I ever notice, but lowering cars isn't much of a "thing" here.

I meant the lowest setting. i feel that it's not at the lowest setting. Unless this is a RWD that is not air suspension.

It’s not a RWD just on normal setting

Ha, got you all beat. Mine was completed 2/15 and still waiting. Is there a prize?

I want to look at this as a silver lining. When mine gets delayed. I get to save more. The more i can pay down, the less interest payment it would be, etc. And since contract is signed, no worry about price increase. Of course i don't mind having it delivered on time. But the Cross Turismo seems to be delivering smoothly. i see more and more of them on the streets these days. They are just less popular than model 3/Y. More popular than anything else.

Yea, what I meant is I am not used to noticing if a car is low or not. Mine is a CT which is 20mm higher than a standard saloon and I would never have thought to lower it before switching off and have never noticed if it looks high or low.

Just not a “thing”

Got it. I ordered the CT too. The funny thing is the config picture of the CT sideways view is at different setting than the sideway view pic in the wait room or whatever you call the tracking site. THe one in the wait room seems to be a bit more lowered than the config one.

That's a great way to think of it. Definitely gives more time for folks to improve their financial situation. Unfortunately for me, my dealer told me the car would be ready for pickup the end of May. As a result, I cashed out a bunch of stock the week before that because we both expected delivery, half of which was NVIDIA. So I lost out on about $40k in value due to the mis-information. Oh well, I'm not letting that get me down though. That's the market for ya...

Yup i was expecting delivery in May so i sold a bunch of TSLA stock and its literally $90 more today than a month ago.

hey @Dabz

do you have any 'real life' photos of your beast and specifically the side skirts?

finally got allocation and a week to lock in.. the side skirts are on the list but I'm wavering..

my spec looks pretty much identical to yours

Oddly I’ve realised I haven’t taken many pics of my car in the 2 months I’ve had it! These are all I have that show the skirts - I’m away at the mo but will try to take you a better close up side one at the weekend

the skirts are still my fav option

congrats Dabz

Congrats Dabz! Im thinking about upgrading the Porsche skirts too, but unsure if:

1. it's only the paintable segment that differentiates
OR
2. there is any more flair to the molded side skirt itself, i.e. sticks out more, or drops lower

 

[Dabz]

I could be wrong but I'm 99% certain it adds both 'flair' and the body coloured bit - the side skirts add width compared to the standards
