Mine was RN114267... Now showing Oct 28-Nov1

My delivery window is now set to Oct 28 - Nov 1, Kansas City. I am so ready! That's 10 months and 25 days from when I placed my order. Looks like the long wait may finally be over...

No NF in my VIN - I do have a MF if that matters

I just got my VIN and request for balance payment. Ordered 12/5/20. My MVPA does not show the credit. How did you get yours changed?

Thank you. I've texted my Fremont contact, but no word back as yet. My delivery point is Kansas City.

Got my VIN today along with a request for my bank information for full final payment. Sorry if this question is addressed somewhere else, but I couldn't find it. Here goes. I ordered in early December before the refresh was announced. When we reconfigured, we were told there would be a $2,000...

Says "prioritized for customers who have completed all items in their Tesla account" - not - "prioritized for customers who finance through Tesla"

Red on white LR with FSD, Tempest wheels and Yoke steering :)

Turning 70 in September, Hope to have my first Tesla (ordered December 5, 2020) before then.

Oh well, I didn't have a VIN before I received the email and I still don't so I guess I'm even. This too, will pass. I'll just have to make do with my old truck for now.

I got this today: (I withheld the name) [Name witheld]@tesla.com 10:02 AM (3 hours ago) Hello Future Model S and X Owners, The Virtual Orientation invite went out to S and X orders in error. We will be extending an invite to our future S and X owners when we have a...

Here you go...

Just got an email from Tesla - in order to avoid double posting, here is a link Wiki - Model S Delivery Update

I got an email this afternoon from Tesla inviting me to a Virtual New Owner Workshop via Microsoft Teams. For me it's the first communication initiated on the Tesla side since I updated my configuration after the refresh was announced. My original order date was December 5th, reconfiguration...

Blue M3 ...

Yep, Mine's been that way since I updated on January 28

How about 4GETOIL 4GETGAS 4GETMPG

Mine still says "We will reach out to you to schedule your delivery date. Delivery time frame is based on order date, profile submission, delivery location and vehicle configuration."

My December 2020 order was Cream/Oak, but after seeing the refresh options I switched to White/Walnut. I too would have prefered White/CF but not for the extra $40k. I might get a CF wrap over the walnut. (I think these will be very popular)

Didn't mean to imply that Lucid was the only one out there doing it, or that they originated it, only that if Reddy is correct, Tesla is using the same strategy on the Model S Plaid as Lucid is with the Air Dream Edition. He may be right.

I guess I'm a little slow in my old age --- It just occurred to me that you have just described the Lucid strategy. You may be right. I may be naive. I have only been following al this since November and placed my first order in December. I have had some good car purchase stories through the...

I'd like to make a crazy speculation. These delivery dates may indicate that Tesla expects the backlog of LR will be caught up in 4-8 weeks at which time they will begin to produce Plaid. They expect to build them for the next few weeks at which time they will go back to building LR for newer...

Ditto - mine had been Feb 14 - Mar 14

if you take the new total price of $146,690 and subtract the old total price of $141,190, you get $5,500 Then subtract the two added options $5,500 - ($2,500+$2,000) you get $1,000. That makes a total of $1,000 increase from the original price to the new revised price - I wish I had gotten such...

Just checked as well. No change. Original order date Dec 5 - Reconfig date Jan 28.

As I think about the yoke switches, I am reminded of my 2010 Brammo electric motorcycle. The Headlight (High/Low/Park/flash), Turn signal and 4 Way Flasher, and horn are on the left grip. The right side has power (on/off) and front brake. Being electric it didn't need a shifter or clutch. All...

Don't know if this will help or not - Some have posted here that some browsers display the edit button and some do not. I think the Chrome browser has been reported as one which normally does show edit. Others have reported that their SA was able to perform the reconfiguration from their end...

Maybe I should have said "My reconfigured post-refresh price was $79,990 before options, destination and fees... My original (5 December 2020) base price was $91,990 since I originally ordered the Model S Performance. When I reconfigured after the refreshed models were released, I stepped back...

Mine was $79,990 before options, destination and fees. That will be reduced to $77,990 once my early order discount kicks in.

I'm pretty sure that "Pay as you go" only means not "Unlimited Supercharging" for which no additional payment was required. That was an incentive for early adopters which is no longer available. No worries - all Teslas can use the Supercharger network, we just have to pay each time we use it.

I had exactly the same experience as you.

Haha, good one!

OP: I think you are right on. I posted something along these lines last Sunday. Seems even more likely to me after seeing the Model S megacasting photos from Fremont and watching the Elon/Munroe interview. Didn't get a lot of love on the forum, but I still think it's a pretty good guess. Plaid...

Munroe/Musk interview - Watch the interview again. Yes, he did say that about production quality, but he also told Sandy that the S would have a structural battery pack fixed between front and rear megacastings. Q4 Report - Model S and X changes are described in the past tense. "... both the...

As I said earlier, time will tell - and it won't be long now. Within 30-45 days cars will be out in the wild the answer will be obvious.

As confirmed by the Elon Musk / Sandy Munroe interview yesterday and leaked photos of front and rear megacastings for the Model S today, my previous speculation about the shutdown, increased performance and chassis revisions is proving true. Plaid refresh battery size / type? Folks this makes...

Has anyone been paying attention to the media? During Sandy Munroe's interview with Ellon, Mr Musk said that future Model S and X would feature front and rear megacastings connected by a structural battery pack. Today, photos of the new Model S megacastings were leaked and are online. I think...

Worked for me.

Before I did the online update, I spoke with my Tesla rep who advised that the $2,000 discount would not take effect until after the VIN was assigned. BTW, the new order agreement shows the date of my reconfiguration, not the original date, BUT is has the same reservation number as the...

I have. I ordered a Performance on 12/5/20. Went to edit configuration after refresh and changed to LR. Account page was updated immediately to reflect the new configuration.

Did you get your hundred bucks back?

With all due respect the contract language says "if we discontinue a product, feature or option after the time you place your order." It makes no reference to Tesla's plans or intends to discontinue. By necessity, plans and intentions occur months or years before a change actually takes...

I went through the same situation. I shared my thought process and decision here: Model S Delivery Update Hard to make a decision between two great alternatives for sure!

Does anyone here have an idea how long the operating manuals trail the release of new/extensively updated models? I would love to read the factory's description of how some of these features function. Until then, or we get some cars to drive, all of our speculations necessarily make assumptions...

Time will tell.

To me it appears that the refresh brought the first of a two phase strategy for battery/structural revision. Phase 1 is to significantly revise the battery pack structure and external fitment. This entails using the existing (and available) 18650 batteries within a newly designed housing (the...

Love the color and wheel combination. Great stance. The change to black trim really works on your package. Enjoy!

Yes, speed variable ratio steering has been around for decades. Electric assist and redundant manual override is well sorted. Big thing here is the potential for a much broader range of ratios with computer assistance.

That is obvious. What is not yet clear is to what degree (no pun intended) the variable ratio steering will be implemented. If for example at parking lot speeds or below, the tation were in the neighborhood of 120 degrees lock-to-lock and at highway speeds 2 turns lock to lock with an...
