I just placed my MY order this week on Wed. when it was still 5-9 weeks. Later in the day it went to 6-10 weeks and today up $500. I have been in close contact with my Tesla Advisor and he has been very helpful. Says to keep it as paying in cash for now, because a credit check will only be good for 30-60 days. And the trade-in is definitely only good for 30 days. So I haven't started either process yet.Quick question because I’m about to place an order seeing that it’s going to take about 6-10 weeks to begin with. Do you all go through the financing/leasing signing of the paperwork online and get that all finished up?
Follow up to that question, do you still only put the $100 until delivery date where you put the “Due at signing” money? And you can cancel in between that time and time at delivery?
And last question, how do you delay the delivery? Do they say ok your car is ready let’s schedule the apt and you just keep rescheduling?
Yes, only $100 until delivery. And yes you can cancel, but if you cancel you lose the $100.
I asked my Tesla Advisor to delay my delivery until July/August. He said I can delay without issue for 3 months post being assigned the first VIN.
This is literally a copy and paste of my Congratulations on your new Model Y email this morning: "To follow up from the other day, I do see that your order was linked to the referral code. I've went ahead and completed your order checkout for you, but as we get closer to delivery, we'll need to add your trade-in, and switch your payment method from cash to financing. Knowing that you're looking to take delivery around July/August, I'll reach out with important updates, especially if there's an incentive to take delivery by June."
When I log into my Tesla account it says Estimated Delivery: April 25 - May 11. Even if the VIN is assigned on April 25th, then I can delay until July 25th no problem or possibly out to August 11th. At least according to my Tesla Advisor. I was told when they assign your VIN you are given a day for pickup and can pickup that day or within 3 days of that day. Otherwise, it goes into asking for a delay and you will need to wait for the next VIN to match your build to you and the process repeats. Repeats up to 3 months post that first VIN assignment. Unless they pull strings I guess, because the order Terms of Agreement say within 3 months:
"Delivery; Transfer of Title. If you are picking up your Vehicle in a state where we are licensed to sell the Vehicle, we will notify you of when we expect
your Vehicle to be ready for delivery at your local Tesla Delivery Center, or other location as we may agree to. You agree to schedule and take delivery of
your Vehicle within three (3) days of this date. If you do not respond to our notification or are unable to take delivery within the specified period, your
Vehicle may be made available for sale to other customers. For new vehicles, if you do not take delivery within three (3) months of our first attempt to
notify you, Tesla may cancel your order and keep your Order Fee."
