Hi all. My 2023 arrived at the dealer today and I am super excited to get it!

I have never bought a car to order before. I test drove a 22. It is expected that I test drive it first? Other than a walk around of the exterior and interior, is there anything else that I should look for? Should I expect the tank to be filled and battery full? Thanks

Hi

I don't think you necessarily need to test drive it, but you certainly can if you want to. In my experience with my delivery, the finance manager waited on us signing all the paperwork until the car was brought around from detailing for my inspection. I did a walk around, expected interior and exterior and tested the doors and electronics briefly. I also read through the sticker to confirm features ordered. The finance manager made a joke that they don't want there to be a mistake and we sign paperwork only to find out the vehicle had the wrong specs.

The vehicle should come fully charged. I was told the dealer prep and activation requires a full initial charge which is an overnight charge. Mine came with a complimentary full tank of gas, but I have seen some dealerships add that cost to the purchase order (kinda cheap move if you ask me).

Congrats and enjoy! Take pics.

Thank you!! The vehicle came fully charged with a full tank of gas. I did an exterior and interior walkthrough. Asked them to fix some details (smudges from their detailing). Car was inside so I couldn’t drive it yet, but the car was driven by their technicians for a few miles for their testing. I’ll post some pictures today
