+1, you don't need to do wire transfer. That's just the standard text on the website. In my case, I called the DC before the payment reminder email arrived, and the people in DC only told me to bring a draft. They also sent me an email (not from system but from a real person in the DC), which only mentioned bank draft.

Glad we could help! Enjoy your new ride. Are you picking up in Olympic Village, in Richmond, or in Surrey?
Sure. I will see what's the convention. On the other hand, comparing to other people's order and delivery dates may not make life easier, based on my own experience.Could folks add yoir order date and config to the signature? It will make life easier for other ppl
Great Northern Way, so I think that's Olympic Village. Haven't been in that area in a while! Looking forward to it.
The electronic appliances in my house don't seem to be responding well to the pending arrival of the Tesla though as I have had two major ones die since I got confirmation of the delivery date!
Sorry to rain on your parade, but don't read anything into that date. If you check other threads, the EDD basically changes on a daily basis. And every day as you inch closer, they move the goal post farther! I'm going through this right now.
Their internal system changes as much as the EDD on the website. My SA kept giving me an estimated ETA from his internal system, and it changed 4 times. Just setting up expectations.
We ordered a MY LR, 19", Black int, hitch on June 22, set delivery shows Aug 21 - Sept 10. From what I'm seeing here, I'm glad we aren't in a hurry.
Well, pickup was the evening of June 29! Thought I'd share a few things about the experience.
After having different estimated delivery dates every day I looked for weeks (sometimes jumping weeks backwards or forwards several times in a week), around June 22 the delivery date narrowed down to June 29-30 (yes, end of quarter!) Still showed that when we got an alert June 25 that we needed to make payment as our car was here! It only takes a couple of days to transfer money into our chequing account, but man - they were intense! They wanted us to schedule that pickup date, they wanted the money fast, and the only pickup days available were June 29 and 30. I booked the appointment even though we didn't have the money in our account yet to do a bank draft, as I finally got a text saying if I didn't book an appointment they were giving our car to someone else. Being a Friday, the money transfer took until Monday and we had scheduled pickup for Wednesday after work (two owners and both must be there).
In retrospect I should have transferred the money earlier but it's a big chunk to leave sitting in chequing earning no interest, and what if they suddenly switched dates again?
Anyway, the pickup was pretty much seamless. We spent about 40 minutes going over the car in detail, and my wife (who can spot a paint blemish from a block away) found a couple of small areas that looked rough but were just adhesive - they buffed them and they were gone.
Car had PPF in front of rear tires. No mudflaps. So far, no issues! Taking it in for ceramic coating in a week - and a paint chip correction. Because I opened the trunk in my garage as soon as I got home to get out the mobile charger, and the trunk went up and hit the inside of my garage door. Which wouldn't be a problem except there is a bolt - right there. Grabbed the trunk a little too late you see. Now adjusted so it stops well short of that but I was less than thrilled with myself. Interesting that our minivan rear door doesn't touch the garage door but the Model Y does!

Interesting that our minivan rear door doesn't touch the garage door but the Model Y does!I also went from a minivan (Odyssey) to MY. The van liftgate is pretty much a flat piece but the MY liftgate is a L shape so the corner of the L would raise higher than a van. I took a very extreme approach - I held the liftgate as soon as the lock unlatched, and manually raised it to the suitable height and program it there.Because I opened the trunk in my garage as soon as I got home to get out the mobile charger, and the trunk went up and hit the inside of my garage door.

It looks like MY's liftgate can only be "electronically stopped" in the middle by a key fob. And other than that you have to use hand to stop it from moving further. (Unlike Odyssey's liftgate which has a "manual mode" if you hold the trunk button when opening it.)
Could be possible. All Tesla GTA locations are dry and have no cars they can’t keep their lots empty till September. My EDD states September but as per my SA on their internal system states EDD of July 26. So I think there will be a bunch of MY’s coming to Toronto, GTA mid July.
