    So... did my APv1 car just get shot in the head?

    I definitely think it will decrease the value of my S, but I knew this was coming sooner or later. Waited in line to get two Model 3s pre-ordered, looks like I'll be trading in the S for a 3.

    Anyone in Ohio have trouble not having front plate?

    Owner for almost two months, no trouble yet. Don't intend on adding it, I'll just pay any fines.

    2016's getting pushed back?

    @jerjozwik I'm so jealous! Great pic, looks amazing! I'm hoping to take delivery by middle of next week, but don't have it officially scheduled yet.

    2016's getting pushed back?

    I hope mine is delivered this week! I just checked in with my DS and he says my car is on the train in Chicago waiting to be unloaded. From there its just a truck ride away from me :-)

    Optimum No Rinse (ONR) Convert

    Thanks for the tips! I've never cared much for my cars before the Model S, but he'll be arriving later this week and I want to treat him right! Placing my order on Amazon now!

    New Owners: What was your last car? How much more was the MS than that car?

    2004 Mazda 3, $0 (gift from my parents). I've never paid for a car, and didn't see myself 'needlessly' paying more than 20k for a car, ever. My Model S is $75k more than my last car ($72k if you count its current $3k value). I've been a long time fan of Tesla (early investor) but have always...

    2016's getting pushed back?

    That probably means he cancelled his order- I think he mentioned that the only reason he still had his order open is because he had already ordered a set of custom wheels. It's a shame Tesla keeps customers waiting so long for their cars.

    2016's getting pushed back?

    How long was your car on the train? My car supposedly got on the train on Feb 10th headed to Chicago, but I'm not sure how long that trip takes with stops.

    2016's getting pushed back?

    124513. Bet yours will be on the train/truck soon! My car spent 6 days in the production status. @cman8: I was thinking the same thing. I'd love it if the mailed my FOB to me after confirmation and enabled the Tesla app so that I could track the car. Webcams on the assembly line would be...

    2016's getting pushed back?

    My status was just updated to In transit this morning :-) My delivery date changed from Late February - March to February 25th - March 10th. I've gotta get moving on that NEMA 14-50 installation. My birthday is March 2nd, hoping it comes before then!

    Time from confirmation to production

    I'm right there with you. I had annoyed my wife by talking about Tesla before I ordered, but since hitting confirm I've really started driving her crazy. Showing her youtube videos, forum posts, pictures, news, accessories, or anything related to Tesla. She is definitely jealous of the...

    Overnight Test Drive Option?

    The salesperson at my local Tesla store mentioned an overnight test drive when it was clear I was serious about buying. We went on a test drive and when we came back I put down my deposit. A few days later I set up an overnight test drive even though I'm sure it wasn't intended for those who had...

    2016's getting pushed back?

    @Edinct My "My Tesla" page is also missing the delivery date as of today. Fortunately today is also the day I received an email that my Model S has entered production! I emailed my DS about the missing delivery estimate and he confirmed that it had not changed from Late February-March, which I...

    Time from confirmation to production

    Based on what I've seen on the forum it's normal for vehicles in the US to be delayed at the beginning of the quarter. The speculation is that Tesla builds all of the international cars first to boost quarterly delivery numbers. I ordered 1/5 and my vehicle is still in the 'production queue'...

    Done: Ordered Today!

    I've been eyeing the frunk organizer box and tire repair kit I wish they could send me my key so I have something to look at while I'm daydreaming about my Model S for the next couple months :smile:
