That's interesting. In New York (within 200 miles) there's also no inventory Model 3s available online, just S and X).

Yeah, maybe it's because statistics take longer from Europe and China :)

Not to be conspiratorial, but isn't it weird that the Q3 production and delivery numbers haven't been released yet? I just spent some time looking back at 2018 and for all quarters it looked like they were released on the morning of the second day of the next quarter. Now it's already the third...

These are not being booked as revenue - the journal entries are (1) 2.5K to cash (2) same to a deposit liability. Deposits have no impact on reported revenue or earnings... come on now.

I think it's a pretty reasonable assumption that Model Y will come in the same flavors as the Model 3. Eventually... but that could be a while

They're not producing 7K cars a week now, for the US market. At all. There's 3 or 4 ships leaving SF every week for either China or Europe, with, say, 1,500-1,800 cars per ship. And Bloomberg is projecting they've been producing about 5,800 cars a week this quarter. So that leaves maybe 1,000...

Guys, it's already been stated that the Y will have the exact same battery pack as the 3 (just as the X has the same as the S), in fact it will have the exact same drive train/options. Even further, it will have 75% approx the same parts as the 3. It's basically exactly the same car as the 3...

It is most likely going to be built there.

A pretty good (and possibly doable) wow-factor would be to do the first hand-overs of signature Roadsters at the unveiling of the Y.

If you're only 30% sure, then if it happens you were wrong ;)

Your image files aren't showing on my computer, but no matter... Congratulations!! Hope your service visit on Monday goes well!

I believe they're telling (at least some) people in Europe now that some of those options are now being added for free in upcoming deliveries. Anyway, please post your initial thoughts from delivery. We want pictures!

Yeah, but you also get to drive a Volt. Sorry, but they're simply not even remotely comparable vehicles.

Depends on where you live, but a list of service centers are here: US Tesla Service Centers | Tesla And this is how you order service, including through a "ranger" that will come to your home or work: Service | Tesla

Definitely not. There's no 35K model S, that's the model 3. Also, if you order today, you get priority if you have a prior reservation. With an "early number" reservation, you might get your car in 2-4 weeks, but with no reservation you've got a whole lot of people ahead of you in line.
