You really need to catch a lucky build to have one put together rectilinearly and reliably. The self-driving stuff, though, is tight. My coworkers are generally in the west LA/noho/south part of the valley, so their drives aren't terribly distant. That's likely why they don't tend to uncover too many gremlins right away.
I had the Tesla SUV park right next to my G05 X5 50i M-Sport this past Feb at the Grand Floridian at Disney. The funniest pic I should have taken was his plate read "NO-GASS". Right next to him my shiny Carbon Black X5 read "BMW-V8TT".
