When I went to pick up my car in Seattle last week they mandated use of the 3rd party application called 'plaid' - this isn't the tesla car, this is a financial service app that has partnered with many banks across the country. The Plaid app is embedded into the tesla app and is used in the...

Just to close out my part of this thread I did get my car today! A few small things they need to fix but the car seems great based on the 17 miles i drove so far! One word of warning - if you happen to have ordered before the refresh announce they offered a 2k discount on the 10k price...

TSLA Pilot - thanks for your help. If you can bring in the troops that would be fantastic! I can answer yes to all 5 of your statements above! I would have gladly taken delivery at any point during the process - like all of us on here who are excited about the refreshed models!

Hi, I just picked up my new S! My order was originally pre-refresh that I converted to the new model almost immediately after the announcement last February. The price went up $10K but they said they would give us a $2000 discount on the new model (ie now it's 8k) more expensive. Well...

Hey @dkc21 and @golonoro - looks like we're all having a fun day with pickups in Renton - I am also picking up today! Hooray! Our cars must have been on the same boat up from Cali! Good luck!

RN1143 update - White/Black/19" No FSD aka 'the basic'. Last night my EDD moved to Feb 6 - Feb 12th (from March 15 - April 15) and I finally got my first VIN (NF470 vintage). As I've documented a few times, my original order was made on Jan 1,2020 and then I transitioned to the refresh very soon...

My 1143 still not delivered.

I'm also RN1143 from Seattle - white/black interior/19"/No FSD - with an update. Never a configuration change (TM). I was encouraged by a few people on here (thanks everyone!) to contact Tesla and find out why my early order still has no car. The local team checked with the factory team and...

I got it for 8k on my 2020 model 3. It's a fun trick to show people every few months but I don't use it. I will not be getting it in my new Model S that so far they haven't sold to me yet - despite a one year wait. I wish I had my 8k back from 2020 as well. Of course other people are happy...

I have talked to my SA every month or so since September. He has generally been more optimistic about my estimated delivery date than what the system showed. This is only ironic since the system has also been too optimistic as I am still waiting for the car. Last week I asked about an...

As a former business development manager I'm almost sure that it is all margin related. If they ever deliver this car it's at $77K. I think Tesla has always prioritized the highest margin cars - all the way back to my first 2013 P that jumped the line like the current Plaid purchasers (somehow...

Happy new year! I hope we all get cars in 2022!

I'd like to wish my RN an official happy first birthday! I ordered a Model S LR on 1/1/2021. RN1143. White/black seats/ 19" wheels. Seattle. Never a config change. Never a rejected order. Current EDD via website is March 18 - April 15. Maybe 2022 is my year??

I think they want us all to follow your path fsabek! I think the whole thing is unethical from a Tesla standpoint. We have all done what we were supposed to do. They put the car up for purchase at these prices. It's not like we forced them or somehow hacked into their order system. That...
