    New Car Ordering Timeline

    If all holds true, my delivery will be 59 days after confirmation. Since they build cars in batches, how long your wait is highly depends on when in the quarter you ordered and where you live. I ordered near the beginning of the quarter while they were focusing on overseas builds. If I had...

    The poor kid got Teslafied

    That's easily the best explanation for the lack of grab handles I've seen so far.

    Whoa! Model S for kids now has the refreshed fascia!

    I put in my order July 31 and I got no notification about the upgraded battery (so I don't think I'm getting it), but I did get this particular email overnight. We chose the color to match my car, so it's exciting the styling will match now too!

    Current S & X OWNERS: What is your favorite currently available exterior color and WHY?

    I agonized over this as well. While I haven't lived with the choice for years yet, I feel your pain. I kept bouncing back and forth between the Obsidian Black Metallic, Deep Blue Metallic, and Midnight Silver Metallic for my 75D. In the end, I went with the Midnight Silver for a few reasons...

    Poll: Should I black out my MC Red?

    If you could get a chrome delete that matches that hyper black / gunmetal color; I'd think pretty hard about that. Chrome and blacked out aren't the only two options for trim. I saw a blue 100D that did a platinum chrome delete to match the wheels and it looked pretty great.

    75 and 75D variants increased performance from July 1st - software and hardware improvements?

    I'm starting to think that perhaps some of these codes should be added to the delivery spreadsheet for tracking purposes.

    75 and 75D variants increased performance from July 1st - software and hardware improvements?

    I also have BTX5 but DU00. Is DU01 perhaps the 75 vs DU00 the 75D? From what I was seeing elsewhere, I thought that DU00 was the new one. But I've also seen where people have said the drive unit didn't have a code before, so that would make DU00 and DU01 new?

    Financing at 1.49%

    SAS was my one hang-up too. It's the one option that, had it been available, I would have gladly paid for when I ordered my 75D. It didn't really bother me that it's included now. I just wish they'd have let me add it after-the-fact. C'est la vie. I expect that the cars improve over time...

    Financing at 1.49%

    That leads me to believe that it's incentive to clear out inventory models. It could also function as a bit of a consolation prize for those of us that ordered before the new standard features and package options were rolled out since they won't allow most of us to change to a new build...

    is base Model S 100D worth extra 23K

    Range doesn't necessarily mean fewer stops once you pass a certain threshold. But the larger capacity battery could potentially mean faster charging for the range you actually need. Since charging speed slows the closer you get to full, I wonder what the difference is in total travel time if...

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    Judging from the spreadsheet, even though it can only provide fuel for speculation, I'd say that it looks like mid to late June orders are starting to be built any day now (depending on delivery location). They do appear to batch cars together for ease of production and delivery. My...

    S75 orders showing a "Showroom Discount" after yesterday's changes?

    I've been told that you'll get what you order. I assume it's just that the web app that generates that spec sheet isn't flexible enough to show old versions of configurations.

    Pricing changes

    Thank you for the details!

    Spec Sheet Changed

    I noticed similarly that the "Black Leather Tesla Premium Seats" that's no longer available doesn't show up on my spec sheet either. It does seem to be a display issue with the spec sheet itself. I was also told that I'd get what I ordered along with the additional showroom discount.
