Tesla

Interesting new car showroom concepts, right in the middle of a famous shopping mall in Newport Beach called fashion island. Apparently they had cars to test drive in the parking lot down below. Nicely finished, fairly will informed staff, but just such a unique experience to be in an upscale shopping mall plaza and walk through regular glass doors into a car showroom! I hope they succeed as I like the concepts.

Tesla at Fashion Island Newport Beach was a good experience. We test drove the new Tesla Model Y. The locale is in the mall nearby the subterranean parking lot. One level below. They have about 10 cars ready to test drive. The rep Tony was very knowledgeable & helpful. Great place to get up to speed on Tesla products.

The salesman said they have the ONLY 7 seat Model Y available in a show room in Orange County.

On a side note, if you scoot the front seats up a bit and scoot the 2nd row all the way up, then the legroom throughout the car is just enough for 7 people.

Even with the 3rd row in use, there's still ample trunk space which still has a deep component when you lift off the cover.

I would still say only children or small adults under 5'5 could tolerate being in the 3rd row more than 15 minutes at a time though.

Great service, no pressure and always helpful. I just picked up my car Dec 18 and it was a fantastic experience from start to finish. I ordered my car Oct 16 and as you can imagine I was anxious to find out when my Tesla will be ready for delivery. Matt (my SA) was always helpful and responsive. With his help I was able to secure the exact car I wanted even though I changed my order (went with a different color) at the last moment. Everything worked out great. The whole team at this location is excellent. Thank you Matt and Tyler!
