7-seat config waiting room

I'm still impatiently waiting for mine. I'm 5 days shy of it being 2 months when my estimate was 2-6 weeks. Still no answers from SA a to what's going on. I've extended my auto loan out another 60 days, so that is no longer a concern. Now I'm hoping to get it soon because I have the clean air vehicle grant that expires on the 29th. Never a dull moment!
 
Hey everyone, long time reader, first time poster. I'm 0xA1EC on the spreadsheet and received my VIN last Friday morning (3/5/2021). I placed my 7-seat order January of 2020 (not 2021). I will be picking up in Eatonville, FL in about two weeks. As of Friday morning, it's on a train from Fremont to Richmond, VA.

Order​

*VIN: 130,9xx*
Model Y Long Range AWD (originally LR RWD, #RIP)
White on white
7-seater
19" wheels
Autopilot

Estimated Delivery Date​

Funny enough, I still don't have an estimated delivery date even though there is a VIN and I've confirmed its existence with my two advisors. In late January/early February, it was showing 2/15 - 3/4, but disappeared a few days into February and hasn't shown back up since.

Updated Pricing​

It also still shows the old pricing under "Car Price," even though the "Price Details" show the $1,000 price drop. When I add them up together I get the correct price, but the summed total hasn't been updated--my advisor is looking into it.

Updates?​

An update from my sales and delivery advisors (two separate people):
- New Console: both agreed
- Heated Steering Wheel: both agreed
- New Headlights: Sales advisor said yes, delivery advisor confirmed it should be in Performance Model Y only (as expected)
- Battery improvements: Sales advisor brought this up--he mentioned a few miles extra range but didn't go into more detail. My delivery advisor said "Not necessarily a longer range, but it may charge faster and hold a charge longer. Of course, I'll take it all with a grain of salt.

Ask me whatever you want, I don't have much more information, but am happy to follow up!
 
Ordered 2/20, waiting impatiently for a VIN. Model Y, LR, 7 seater, Pearl White, Black Interior, 19" wheels. Did a second test drive while waiting (hubby was worried about sun on his head), and my contact there told me they expect to see the 7 seaters come in to PDX end of March.

Hey All: I'm about to pull the trigger on a new MY LR. I never considered getting the 7 seat option but it seems like there isnt really a downside except price. Aside from losing the 2nd under floor storage and a few inches of storage space where the3rd row seats sit when folded, is there any other downside to the 7 seater? Is the remaining under floor storage area the same size as the 5 seater? Does the 2nd row have the same amount of max legroom? Any input would be appreciated. TIA!

I can’t imagine how disappointing that must have been. Hopefully the next one will come quick! I have a SR delivery scheduled for 3/15 and I’m anxious it goes ok - not sure if I’ll get another chance for a SR7.

I thought it was a great breakdown of, not only the seats but the updated finishes and features.
