    September 2021 Order Delivery Dates

    I'm curious, how much is your build subtotal, before delivery fees, order fees? Did you try asking them "well which configurations ARE you building right now that I can have to get my car at my same build subtotal?" My feeling is you have such a great price locked in that Tesla will lose a lot...

    September 2021 Order Delivery Dates

    I think the issue is costs have gone up so much sinc I think the issue is that materials are less available (especially after Russia invaded Ukraine) and costs have gone up so much since September that it's not profitable for Tesla to produce orders that were received before October at...

    I personally got tired of getting pushed back. I switched my order to a MYP and had it delivered 5 days later.

    Model Y Floor Mats

    Has anyone purchased Abstract Ocean's Model Y floor mats? I seems to me that you are just paying for the name for the other well know brands (i.e., 3D MAXpider, Tesmanian, Teslarati). https://abstractocean.com/collections/all-model-y/products/tesla-modely-floor-mats

    September 2021 Order Delivery Dates

    After having my EDD repeatedly pushed back I called Tesla last Thursday, 3/24, to see if they had any Red Ys in stock. I lucked out to find they had a Performance with White Interior and no owner available. I asked the rep to change my MYLR order to this, kept September pricing and took...

    IMO just changing the paint won't make a difference. Tesla seems to be prioritizing MYPs and vehicle orders with FSD.

    October 2021 Order Delivery Dates

    I could make the switch to MYP and just use Tesla's FSD subscription option to order FSD for $200 for a month period for whenever you need it. That what I plan to do. https://www.tesla.com/support/full-self-driving-subscriptions

    Sadly that's the only way any 2021 MYLR orders seem to be getting produced. By changing them to a MYP order. I did exactly that on Thursday and my car is being delivered tomorrow, just 5 days later.

    October 2021 Order Delivery Dates

    Yes, Tesla is trying to maximize profit by delivering their higher margin orders at higher rates at the expense of their lower margin orders or orders they might be making little money or even losing money on. Remember last October Tesla raised prices substantially on all their vehicles and...

    October 2021 Order Delivery Dates

    When was your OD? If you change your current MYLR order to a MYP I wouldn't be surprised if you received a VIN that same day AT the October MYP price if that's when you originally ordered. Tesla's algorithm takes your wait time into account when assigning GINs. If you're going to keep...

    Edit Design without affecting price now?

    It shouldn't. The algorithm should still keep your original OD into account. Although just moving to the 20" wheels won't make your EDD move up. That only seems to be happening for people that add FSD or change their order from a LR to a P. When was your OD and what's your current EDD?

    I keep seeing more and more delays. My EDD kept getting pushed back so I just decided to end the torture and switch my order to the P. Changed yesterday and will be delivered on Tuesday. I just checked the Tesla site and they are estimating DD of Jan-April 2023 on all new orders. It was...

    September 2021 Order Delivery Dates

    Given the recent sharp increases in raw materials, with no indication they will come down anytime soon and the potential for it to keep getting worse on account of the Russian invasion at what point does it become unprofitable for Tesla to produce orders placed at last years prices? I see a...

    September 2021 Order Delivery Dates

    The price was $60,990 at the end of September 2021: Tesla increases Model 3 and Model Y prices, cheapest car is now $42,000 That's the price that I got when I changed my MYLR order to a MYP order this morning.

    After changing my order from a MYLR to an MYP this morning I've been assigned a VIN, secured financing, secured Tesla insurance, and scheduled the at home delivery.

    Have been tired and sick of waiting. I called Tesla this morning to see what Red MYs they had available that second. He said they had a Red MYP with White Seats. I asked will September pricing apply. He said yes so I told him to assign me the VIN. They will work to transport the car so...

    Thanks, BGOwner. I ended up calling Tesla this morning to check what Ys they had in stock right that second in Red. The rep told me he had a Red MYP with White interior. I told him to assign it to me. Delivery date is now 3/27-31. Insurance is secured and now waiting on the phone with DCU...

    At this point I'll take a Red LR or P, black or white interior, 19 or 20" wheels, tow/no tow, 5 or 7 seater, regular driver seat or driver seat with dildo fixture. Anything Red except FSD.

    Just called Tesla to ask if changing the order to Performance would help me get a car quicker and the answer was no. Given my Sept OD and my current EDD, the Tesla rep said I might get my original order faster than if I changed the order to a MYP which is currently showing as a June delivery...

    Got bumped as well to a longer window, 4/21 - 5/26. I'm pissed off. The a**hole Tesla person I talked to over the phone on the 18th said my car was still looking like a EOQ delivery. The news this morning doesn't point to an EOQ delivery. These delays keep costing us money and real...

    I called Tesla and they said their system sent out automated texts to identify all the customers that could take delivery by EOQ if spots were to open up. It was not a guarantee that one would get their car in March.

    August Order Estimate Delivery

    My fear is that Tesla will start to prioritize the delivery of cars purchased after the various October price increases and the prices increases from yesterday and last week at the expense of pre-October 2021 orders. Since RMs cost so much more today it just makes business sense to fulfill the...

    I've noticed that Y orders with White and MSM paint have been the ones getting pushed back further. Could be a paint shortage issue especially since you ordered the 20" wheels and 7 seat layout. I ordered a Red Y with no other add-ons, ordered a few days before you and am still on pace to get...

    Windows tinting questions

    I don't think tint shade matters. Different shades allow different amounts of visable light in. If you want to reduce heat from entering in the car then you want to make sure you install a high quality, window tint material, like ceramic. Check out this YouTube video:
