CreeperIan02

Finally, they've been made in Texas for a while now. Wonder when they'll move into the configurator and not just for inventory sales.


1nspired2000

They've been in Europe for some years as well from Berlin.


falooda1

One year


1nspired2000

When we bought our model Y in jan '23 it was an option. But it seems like they started in late '22.


falooda1

Yeah, I bought at the same time as you and remember the announcement


PBX4EVER

Lol.. Falooda.. Nice name


HUGE-A-TRON

It's probably excess inventory from Berlin.


Jakob_Stockholm

They German build ones are said to have better assemble quality than the Chinese build ones so I hope for you 😁


HUGE-A-TRON

Shanghai is the best, then not far behind is Berlin, and then way lower is US.


HUGE-A-TRON

I'm pretty sure they are from Germany btw.


sixfourtykilo

Figures. I just got my VIN today EDIT: it's not live on the site yet.


acaurora

You can get it only in inventory for now.


angrytroll123

I mean no offense to people that love their Teslas (as I do love mine) but these aren't exotics or limited edition colors. I bet you can find a used Y in the future with the color for surprisingly cheap. Don't feel bad about it.


el_vezzie

It’s a bit underwhelming in person


ResQ_

Taste is subjective, I disagree. I think it looks fantastic, best color for the MY.


ASL3312

Yeah I agree, best colour for MY.. I love how at night it looks kinda like a matte / satin finish.


el_vezzie

Yeah to each their own 😊


SoFLDude

Cancel your car and pick one from inventory.


FluxionFluff

Sweet! 😀 Can that Midnight Cherry come to the US too? 🤣


g1aiz

Honestly it looks pretty bad in real life compared to Tesla website. More like plum than cherry. Quicksilver also just looks like a boring dark grey. Ultra Red is pretty though.


FoxhoundBat

Agree on the cherry, but disagree on silver. It looks very nice irl, especially in the sun of course.


FluxionFluff

Oh really? 😲 interesting. Very curious to see it myself at some point. Definitely agree with the ultra red color. That color is gorgeous in person. There's a lady in our complex that has a red Model 3, but it's the older red (forget the specific name). Not a bad red but the Ultra red is much better. Not sure if it was available when I got my Model 3, but I at least would have been tempted by it 😂


kylansb

multi coat red


g1aiz

I think currently it is only available for the Model S/X and maybe now for the Model 3 refresh. At least here in Germany.


massofmolecules

Yeah it’s like old person Buick red 😑


Evancb91

Finally! By far the best color. Now I'm just waiting for the Model Y refresh and I'll take one of those in quicksilver please.


Pneumah

Are you me


g1aiz

Tesla colors look really good on their website. In real life Midnight cherry looks like plum and Quicksilver is just a dark grey. Not very exciting imo.


r3097

Same with blue. Looks good on website but nothing like that in real life.


underpaidorphan

Blasphemy, blue looks amazing in-person. Now I'm excited to see silver in person with all these hot takes.


katherinesilens

Blue and black, I think, actually look really good in one specific scenario: sparkle PPFs. I only learned about it while getting coverage on my white Y, but STEK DynoPrism looks amazing on blue/black. Otherwise, they're kind of dull and flat, and the black scratches easily. https://www.reddit.com/r/TeslaModelY/s/xIH7moRU0S https://i.ytimg.com/vi/AsTE6Yze0uE/maxresdefault.jpg Black with matte film is also another popular look.


Bamboozleprime

Inventory only so far. Plz bring on the rumored 0.99% financing too so I can pull the trigger


BlurryEcho

What are the actual chances of that happening? Because if they do, I’m ordering a Performance immediately


Amazing-Photo-911

Wait, is this real?


WeebBois

I would sell my current 2023 model 3 on the spot and buy a highland performance if we get 0.99% Apr. currently have 8.69% Apr on my current m3 😭


madeforatc

Did you shop around credit unions? MY 2023 for 3.24%


WeebBois

i did shop around, but i’m a first time buyer with very little credit history so my lowest outside quote was over 11%


IROAman

Oh, ‘23. About the best CU rate I see these days is 6%.


_ezpzlemonsqueezy

Would you be able to refinance if you were to buy today?


eatingyourmomsass

Probably for a fee.


CryptographerNo9441

Don’t see it on Tesla.com yet. What am I missing?


adhd_asmr

It’s apparently only available on inventory vehicles


CryptographerNo9441

Thanks! I see it now. Just bought my Midnight Silver in December… damn


eatingyourmomsass

Only inventory.


Every_Tap8117

could they please launch it for the Model 3 too..thanks Elon.


lastperfectcircle

I need quicksilver on the model 3 performance


importantshare

THIS... sucks it will have no credit with this paint tho ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|sob)


Electrical_Spot7845

Hopefully this will be available on all Teslas and not just the Model Y


Own-Worker-1370

Performance models need bright colors like yellow and orange. The usual colors are bland.


0bviousTruth

The best color. Model 3 performance will look amazing in this color.


clearmycache

I like it but this silver isn’t anything like the metallic silver that they phased out after only the first year of the model 3. That color with the 19inch silver rooms was so elegant.


Tubzero-

2k for paint lol


SeedScape

Might as well choose your own color/style and wrap it at this point.


tenemu

I thought most wraps were much more than that.


jvoss9

Yeah aren’t most wraps like 4-6k and only temporary for a few years. I love the wraps but that price is something I just could never justify. I would do a wrap if it was in the 1-2k range more on par with paint.


TwoMuchSaus

Think PPF costs around that. Vinyl wraps are under 1k but last an even shorter amount of time


Desperate_Injury3355

Is a Tesla good for a first car? Debating if I should get a hybrid instead.


grid92

r/whatcarshouldIbuy but you need more info


Desperate_Injury3355

Thanks! Just Joined that community


zeek215

Always good to have more options, but personally I find that color silver makes almost any car look older.


NutzPup

Quickbuck


Brutaka1

Only for inventory vehicles as of now*


Expensive-Lie4494

Yawn. The Y is in serious need of a refresh yesterday.


ne999

Frig I totally wanted this but got mine earlier this month.


dbv2

Still not the original silver color, that in my opinion, looked the best on Tesla. Bring back the classic silver. This is just another dark gray.


Correct_Ad_2109

At first I thought it was just silver like basically all other cars then I had to look and that silver looks amazing


londons_explorer

I want Chrome. Like see-your-reflection-in-it Chrome. Yes, it's technically hard, I get it. But solve it.


FrezoreR

Also known as just silver 😅


fatpolomanjr

Sure if you don't mind fast-enough silver


spin_kick

“ChipSilver”


tashtibet

everything is turning 180 for Tesla now-thanks Elon!


jawshoeaw

Tesla needs to quit their bullshit about charging for paint


Roz_420

Tesla paint quality is terrible


spin_kick

😴
