RWD. The first P's will probably take a few more months. Am sure when first revised EDD's come out, the word will spread rapidly.Rwd or P?

Do you have any specific knowledge about this, or is it a just a guess? As someone who ordered an MYP it's getting very frustrating! Seeing a lot of RWDs build the the second quarter delivered, and now seeing 4th quarter cars coming it's very aggravating. Are the performance lines not running? Are they being allocated somewhere else? I wish we knew what was going on!RWD. The first P's will probably take a few more months.

From my completely uneducated guess on this, my take, The model y rear wheel drive makes them a lot more money or at least loses them less money. So they are going to prioritize that versus the performance which is a little bit more costly.Do you have any specific knowledge about this, or is it a just a guess?

On the contrary the P will make a lot more money, but will probably require to pull more strings. Making money from RWD is so much easier.From my completely uneducated guess on this, my take, The model y rear wheel drive makes them a lot more money or at least loses them less money.

Correct, earliest dates listed were November onwardsAnyway, the MYP here always had initial delivery dates well after the MYRWD, right from launch day did it not?
I don't believe any market performance lines have been running at Giga Shanghai. There was a rumour about Singapore but I think it was just confusion and they don't have Ps yet either.Do you have any specific knowledge about this, or is it a just a guess?

Yep, I hear you.All this waiting for the MYP makes me want to change colour every second day lol! I see all the Ys being delivered and I go 'ooooh the blue looks fab' then I think should I change colour then I tell myself to just leave it/
Perhaps there were cancellations, or Tesla were conservative with their build estimates? Also remember that MYP vehicles have NMC batteries, there could be a lead time on those so if they're able to build more vehicles, why not build those with LFP if those packs are on hand?I'm a little peeved that some people that were in the Feb-April tranche getting VINs now when they weren't due.

What colour did you order?
Edit: scratch that ... just saw your sig

Thanks, @alliwantisaY! I've finished up my isolation, so there's no stopping me now! I dropped into the dealership on Friday, and had another look at the red Y. It's very nice, but I think I might go for something more low-key this time around (my current car is a red Mazda). Looks like I'll be sticking with the MSM tooAll good. Same as you MSM. BTW I do have a photo of the Red MY at the Perth dealership if you are still housebound? I feel the lure of the blue but I think I will stay boring and keep the MSM.
I am pretty sure performance lines are being made in Shanghai, both RHD and LHD.I don't believe any market performance lines have been running at Giga Shanghai. There was a rumour about Singapore but I think it was just confusion and they don't have Ps yet either.
I'm ok about cars (Y RWD) that were in the Nov-Feb tranche being made now but I'm a little peeved that some people that were in the Feb-April tranche getting VINs now when they weren't due. I was hoping that MYPs would start production soon and I'm still hopefully as they have started export production earlier than they would normally. If they want to do export Y RWD until October 1 then go for it, then turn on the MYP production line please.
To be fair the people that are getting shafted the most are the Model 3 orders. They have been waiting 6mths ++ which is way longer than many of the Y orders.
At the end of the day, I have an ESTIMATED delivery tranche of Nov to February so they are allowed to wait until Feb 27th or even longer if they really wanted to. Hopefully they have all the parts they need to retool the line over to MYP soon.
