Well, I would like to get a Model 3, yet I want Tesla to get glitches out of their production first. I am sure v2 will be much better (sw/hw issues, trim quality, gaps etc).

And then they need to start all over with Model Y. What quality expectations are there?

Trim quality, gaps? That's very old news and hasn't been true for almost a year.

(I know 2 dozen people with 3s purchased in the last 8 months and none of them have had any quality issues)

My Model 3 was purchased the last week in October and has severely uneven fittings and gaps that are getting worse with time. I think the whole gap thing is generally myopic and stupid but this is really remarkable.

I wouldn't call it myopic when a base Toyota Corolla has less squeaks, rattles and fitment issues than Tesla Model 3's and S/X's

As much as I am a Tesla fan, I have to call spade a spade. I know two people in the last couple of months who bought a Tesla, and I noticed misalignments on both of them.

> I know 2 dozen people with 3s purchased in the last 8 months

What's the population size of people who you know who purchased any car in the last 8 months?

Yep. Look at look at a side-by-side comparison a Model 3 from about a year ago (Premium Interior) vs. today (Partial Premium Interior). In the first few frames, there's a notable improvement in the body tolerances around the frunk. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cSIC6zvQy5Y

FYI, Tesla doesn't really do "versions" like v2. They're always trying to improve "sw/hw issues, trim quality, gaps etc" over time. So those issues will get better over time without ever announcing a "v2".

And yes, I'm sure the first Model Ys will also have issues that should improve over time.
