Sing baby Its You buy the Smith Band 1969.

Tesla paint always sucks

Did you end up accepting it?

I would reject it. Make them fix it or get you a different car. I saw this as someone who knows how to do paint-correction, but I worry that someone already tried that and went too deep with the cutting polish.

its under the clear .your not buffing that out . its from poor paint prep

1st time I got to see ZZTOP was 1976, and many times after.

Where is Reb? Or are you working in the second one? lol

Joe Biden?

All software screws up. Your comment is a total failure!

Mr and Mr Cool

Took the delivery on June 5th. I had to wait 21 days to bring in for the service to correct similar paint issues as yours, scratches in door jam area, dent on trunk hatch area and bunch of other minor issues that I found during the inspection. I didn't think they would be able to fix it to 100%, but to my surprise it came back in perfect condition in less than 8 hours. Kudos to Tesla @ Lynnwood. I was skeptical after all the reviews showing how Tesla made it worse than before. But I guess they came a long way. Definitely give them a chance to fix those issues.

Most of that will buff out as its in the clear coat and not into the paint itself. Call me an Whambulance.

Kinda of looks like clearcoat will definitely buff out.

👏👏👏👏👏👏

You need me to be your next guitar player , im on tik tok .....

Very very skinny dude

I think you’re worried about buying a car for “$50,000” rather than those small paint imperfections. Will be a matter of days before you see more of them it’s meant to be driven on the road not to have a perfect picture

Damn! His beard weighs more than he does.

I can understand your disappointment. You wanted a good car and I brought you a Tesla. 😂

Would never accept that on a brand new car unless you bought it from Alibaba or Aliexpress. For 50 grand... I would expect nothing else then a clean paintjob.

My god does ultra red look good on that new model 3p 🤤 those spots look easily fixable with a light buff.

Reject

That's an easy fix. Should get a ceramic coating anyways any mediocre Detailer could make them look nice just means there's quite a bit of clearcoat on there

When I got my 2022 Model 3 Performance, I checked the car for defects and it was pretty much OK, but not perfect. There were no panel gaps, but I did noticed that the headlights were a bit off here and there, but really, maybe by a millimeter or two so nothing crazy. Same, the passenger side rear door is a tiny bit more open than the rest when closed, but again, nothing crazy. The paint did have issues, the entire front of the car was "polished" most likely by the local Tesla when they received the vehicle. Reason? I am going to assumed it was due to poor delivery/transportation where lots of bugs got into the paint as the car was delivered from across the country. Whoever did the "polishing" better have a good different job because he or she has no clue how to do it. Instead of polishing, it got all scratched up. But considering the car was just fine and the scratches were superficial from not knowing how to polish, I accepted it. Once I got home, I replaced the wheels with aftermarket wheels and tires (I got the Arachnid style staggered), and took it to get nano-ceramic tints. I also got quoted there for a full polishing and ceramic treatment but it was way too much. So, since I have the tools, I just did the polishing myself and used a semi-ceramic wax for the finishing. I saved over a thousand dollars doing it myself and I got about 95% of the scratches off and the car looked ready for a car show, so I cannot complain. After two years, it is time for me to remove the waxing with some good soap and redo the waxing, just being lazy, but will have to do it eventually. Unfortunately, your brand new Model 3 Performance had more than just small scratches, those paint defects are just that, defects, they will not come out because the issue is how the paint finishing was done, and all that is under the clear coat, so you did the right thing by rejecting the delivery. Hopefully the next one will be OK. Good luck!

Good call on the rejection, they really can't make things better; service center tends to make it worse.

These comments are hilarious. It's a brand new car. Wether it's a Tesla, KIA, VW group car... If i buy a new car, the paint will have to be pristine. i love the absurd accusations and downright jealousy type posts because he can reject the car.

Sh_t quality is still a Tesla trademark. How does crap like that even make it out of the plant. Ask yourself this: if obvious exterior defects are so easily visible and they still tried to deliver this thkng, how do you think the hidden stuff was put together and checked? REJECT it!

Seems to be par for the course with Tesla in 2024. They really need to work on initial quality. Too many people taking delivery with paint issues, loose parts, creaks and squeaks, panel gap issues, etc...

If people continue to excuse this lack of quality control on the part of Tesla, it will never get better. You would never see this on a China made Tesla.

I'd say 'Look, its new, I expect it look new, make it look new, that's what you would do', did you pay? If you did, I'd ask for a few $K off for inconvenience, along with them fixing it to as close as possible to 'brand new' and ask for a complementary ceramic coat ...if they can't, then demand an exchange, but they provide a loaner to you until your new car comes in.

If you were trading it, they'd point that out and knock several grand off its value; what other issues are there that are more difficult to see?

That’s some serious cheddahhh!!!! Looks like a fun game!!!!

Reject it. it might comes with extra problems.

Hands down, ZZ Top is one of my favorite bands and this is one of my favorite songs of theirs. 🎸👍

Those are sanding marks from debris or dust getting into the paint. Every manufacturer has this issue. Have it paint corrected and coated and learn proper washing techniques.

1) $50k is no longer an expensive car 2) none of this should be a surprise with tesla

For 50k I would get a Lexus, BMW, MB, or Audi.

Bro thinks he's buying a Bugatti Chiron. 😅

Your mistake is getting custom paint from a factory. A paint man told me that you should be able to read the fine print of a newspaper in the reflection of the paint. Alot of paint is uneven and terrible, and all new cars that are dipped, are terrible

Poor baby has some boo boos

LOL at expecting perfection from Tesla.😂

Paint looks bad with the swirls and marks. It will need paint correction anyway, even if it didn’t have those dots.

Happens all the time, buffs right out, they will take care of you. Accept the car.

Great song

Took delivery of mine on June 11. Same color. Upon delivery inspection found a crease on the lower left part of the trunk lid. The metal was actually creased and then painted over. I took delivery and then service had it for six days but they fixed the crease and now it looks good. They will fix yours - give them a chance Unfortunately this particular color seems to be shipped from the factory with these types of defects. Nonetheless the car is fantastic. Good luck.

Mine had a knick on the paint by the driver door and a misaligned interior panel. I still took the car, they are coming to fix the panel and touch up the small paint chip. Not enough for me say no. Really enjoying the vehicle.

It’s a 50k car… this is just blowing things out of proportion 😂. Have them redo the paint if it bothers you that much. But to each their own.

yes i can see it and it looks really bad and plus you paid extra for that paint....

Are you in Maryland owings mills by any chance? They called me yesterday offering up a red from a buyer who backed out lol

I said air is fine
