I placed my order for the AWD CT in December 2025. The 3-5 weeks wait time was posted. In Jan, I saw there was one at the Charlotte, NC show room. I decided I could just do a road trip down there from Virginia, about 350 miles to pick it up. I did a final once over of my 2022 Dual Motor Y Model then headed out early morning. Got to the store, signed off on the Y Model and accepted the CT. Just presumed all was good with the CT. Told the rep I would figure things out while driving back home. Hit the road mid afternoon for the drive back home to Virginia. I was quite satisfied with the truck by the time I got home about 10pm.

Besides that, truck is flawless. It did come with a Mobile charger in the truck bed even though I didn't order one with the truck sale, so now I have two...
This is encouraging to hear. I had heard that new CTs don't come with a mobile connector, so I had been planning to order one. I guess I'll wait and see if mine comes with it also.

Nice to hear all these order status changes! My Jan 23 order should hopefully get a VIN soon.

Exact same question I had.

Were the doors, fenders and can-trail roof section aligned properly? Any significant panel gaps between the SS panels?

I read that the 1.8mm and 1.4mm SS panels need to be over bent from specifications because SS has a tendency to spring back once it's bent.
I took delivery of mine today. 3 miles on the odometer.
Door alignment is spot on. Tailgate may not be 100% but honestly it’s pretty close and it’s fine.
Frunk alignment on one side is slightly off from the other, still not huge, this is me TRYING to find anything less than perfect.
Passenger cantrail joins the front fender just a tiny bit off. Looks like a piece of rubber gasket may be caught up under it slightly.
Trailer hitch receiver has a weld on one side that appears they didn’t like and rewelded. That doesn’t have the black protective paint on it so there’s slight surface rust around that.
And a small plastic clip broke at the front of the frunk the second time I opened it.

I was planning to have an alignment done after delivery anyway so I’ll have them replace the plastic clip and inspect/neaten up that hitch weld then.

I’m not unhappy about any of it.

Did you use some checklist (or the one they got)? Or you just know what to check? I am former Tesla owner waiting for my CT In the next week, would be very happy to hear advice

I looked for a delivery checklist but it was pretty generic and just included everything. It wasn’t targeted to common issue items like delivery checklists I have seen in the years past.

I did not notice any of these issues at delivery except the slight cantrail and frunk and tailgate alignments. I forgot to bring a screwdriver to open the tow hitch cover and I did function test the frunk but the clip popped on the second use when I got home.

We tested all the major stuff like suspension adjustments, heated and cooled seats, frunk, tailgate, tonneau, steering wheel and mirror adjustments, seat adjustments, no glass cracks (which are covered for 30 days after delivery btw).

I had kinda decided to trade my Foundation Series before the FSD went away so I placed a non committal order and got a trade in estimate. A few days after order, the Trade in estimate disappeared. Seeing all these VIN numbers pop up, I just checked and I have a VIN. No delivery estimate though.

Oh question for you guys; mine got delivered with FSD v13 which I thought was odd. Is there something I need to do to force v14 or will it do it by itself connected to my home Wifi?
Mine also has FSD 13.2.9 and 2025.44.200
It comes with the software update preference defaulted to standard instead of advanced. I’m sure that’s why we don’t have the latest v14, but mine checked for an update a couple hours before I picked it up so when I changed it to advanced it won’t do another update check until at least another 24 hours. I tried some of the tricks to force it but had no luck.

Photos of my “imperfections” mentioned above. It’s very hard to get a photo that shows these well.
Of course they uploaded out of order and I don’t know how to change it.

Driver rear cantrail is a little wobbly at one spot if you look right along it.
