[a.void]

In case anyone doubted the hold back, Tesla acknowledged 11,166 model 3s now in transit.
Explains why RWD orders are getting immediately filled.
I don't see anything yet on the 200k magic number.

Is there some sort of Elon presentation coming soon after the end of Q2 or will that wait until Earnings report in August? Have tried googling for this with no luck.

We have to wait until August

This is why I keep telling people, don't be surprised if you configure and, instead of 2-4 months (or whatever), you get a call saying, your car is ready next week, about that money...

I would treat all the delivery estimates on the website as maximums, and be ready when you place an order. Anything could happen for the rest of this year!

Except if you ordered the AWD non Perf. I don't think they have too many of those stocked up. And since they are probably pumping out the Perf models first, the AWD may really have to wait a few months for the first delivery. I am hoping it would be sooner as I don't really want to wait until Nov 30 and wondering if I am going to get it before end of the year for the full tax credit.

Perhaps... just be ready with money and charging. Just sayin'

Are the 5000+ they made in the last week included in this figure?

In case you're wondering why I rated it funny, it's just a number that's so much higher than any other plug-in and they're trying to overcome production problems.

Most likely. Otherwise where would they go? So, it's almost 3 weeks of production. Which I think is an average time anyway it takes for a produced car to reach its owner - it's not like they had to hold back a lot.
