Dealer: "Nissan is building your Platinum+ AWD now...."

I was one of those who jumped on the Tesla bandwagon in mid-January when the prices dropped, so I've had my Model Y for about 5-weeks. I didn't cancel my Platinum+ reservation yet, as I want to drive it when it arrives before I cancel and get the refund.

But curious -- have any Platinum+ been delivered yet? Since I got my Tesla, I haven't been paying attention. Until I just got this text from my dealer.

It seems the first few have arrived this week. Here's a post:

What state are you from? If CA, take a road trip down to Orange County (Tustin, CA) and be the first on this forum to test drive the Plat E4orce. We would be curious to hear your reviews of the Ariya Plat E4orce versus Model Y. Be gentle not to upset Elon Musk! LOL

What is your impression of your MY so far? Was it worth $7500 savings?
We enjoy our Ariyas very much. Money well spent.

I put multiple cars into my dealer and though everyone who answers the phone is very nice no one has had any information for me on my platinum plus build and everyone says they will call me back and no one has.
Drove by the dealer today and they have two platinum plus E4orce cars in the lot, one Boulder gray and one black. The interior looks good on both. Unfortunately, my order is for an Everest white. , one Boulder gray and one black. The interior looks good on both. Unfortunately, my order is for an Everest white with 20 inch wheels.

I'm having a ton of fun. I'm a bit of a technology geek, so driving what is essentially a piece of software on wheels, is pretty fun. Although I haven't driven a Platinum+ eForce yet, I'm totally anticipating to experience a much higher quality luxury vehicle -- albeit with maybe not as many cool bells and whistles.

Yeah, I call the Model Y an iPad on Wheels.

I was tentatively offered to test drive the Platinum E4orce tomorrow evening. If so, I will ask my my neighbor if he wants to join me for this test drive. He currently drives 2022 LRMY Dual Motor Performance.

I have to tell you that when I saw the cars in person, I fell in love with the black because of the uniformity of the entire body of the car. I love that putty gray color… but because the fenders of the spoiler are black, it chopped up the car in my view. It’s still beautiful, but it made it visually look a bit shorter to me. Again, obviously this is just my opinion.

My dealer said that people could cancel their reservations if they didn’t get the car yet without a penalty. He also said that a lot of the orders were coming in wrong. Not sure if you did a special order or something.
