That makes more sense. I don't think that's unique to Tesla. If I'm not mistaken, people already occasionally test drive, say, a Chevy Malibu then decide to have the dealer order another Malibu with a specific option set, color, et cetera. With new car purchases (but obviously not used car purchases), it seems that it's not so much about test driving the exact unit.
- mikeash 12y agoI imagine it varies depending on the person, and maybe the brand. Some people will want to test drive the exact car they're going to buy, while others will be happy trying out the model and trusting that their unit will be the same. When I bought a new car last year, I appreciated being able to test drive the exact car I bought, although it definitely wasn't necessary. In any case, I don't think it's a big problem, just the only one I can see that would potentially remain with a test-drive-then-order-online approach.
