Tesla Model X configuration opens in Europe
A member on the Tesla Motors Club forum recently started a thread noting that Model X configuration in the European Union was now open after the member received receipt of a request to configure his own reservation. This has led forum users to suggest this puts the timing of deliveries to the European market on schedule.

Already 6 months since config page available in USA. Click to expand...

Does it really matter when there`s no X`es in showrooms, no testdrives available, lots of US sigs are still without cars etc? The pressing issue doesn`t seem to be access to configuration, but the ability to deliver.I got access to the config page yesterday. Of course - the prices are through the roof because of weak NOK vs USD. Not sure whether to cancel or not.On the plus side:- The Mode lX is a better 7 seater than the Model S, and we`re in desperate need of a great 7 seater.- It`s a new model with new features, better space inside the car for people and luggage- Tow hitch so I can tow a boat a few kilometers every spring and fall, buying large items etc.The downsides.- No roofrack option unless you`re using seasucker or similar- The falcon wing doors- Brand new model from a company known for poor quality and long service queues (at least compared to german rivals which is the kind of build quality we`re used to here in Europe)- A bit too big. Won`t fit some parking garages (no biggie)- Extremely expensive for what I concider a beta car- Shorter range than the SNot sure about driving dynamics. I prefer the Model S chassis and height above ground. SUVs are normally way worse to drive, but I see people claim that`s not the case with the X.That said - I`m pretty sure I`ll end up ordering if I get to see and testdrive the car. Because I`m a weak person
