Canadian Pricing and Delivery

[strider]

To get this back on track, over in another thread Dr. Computer posted a pic of a Model S window sticker and it says "US/CANADA PARTS CONTENT 55%" so that should qualify under NAFTA right?

That looks promising. It notes that this does not include final assembly, delivery, etc., all of which would increase USA %, correct?

Hopefully they will announce pricing this week, with the Get Amped tour coming to Toronto and all..

Amen to that mnx...thanks for posting that info strider... :smile:

It would would really make my week if they:

a) announced pricing
and
b) sent out finalize your order e-mails...

 

[Jaff]

c) ...gave us a discount because of the prolonged wait... :wink::biggrin:

 

[Doug_G]

d) ...gave us a discount because we weren't able to take advantage of the $10,000 Signature discount they gave to Roadster owners in the USA (this was discontinued before the Signature was ever offered in Canada). (That said, I suspect the extra deposit deferment was supposed to offset this somewhat.)

 

[mnx]

looks like finalize your order e-mails have gone out this week, and we're not included again. (at least I'm not)...

from the finalize your order thread:
"I'm REGULAR PRODUCTION #957, and I just got my "It's Time to Build" email. Looking forward to my Dallas test drive before I line up my ducks.

Andy"

During the investor conference call, they said that there would be two "tranches" of American P emails going out, and then they would do Canadian S and P reservation holders after that. So I'm assuming it will happen in a couple of weeks. Maybe we'll even have pricing.

@mnx

I presumed ( homologation, pricing, finalize ) is the sequence for each market individually.

I don't have a gut instinct on whether Canadian sigs will "jump ahead" of U.S. R & P in the factory line if Canadian H,P,F finishes fast enough for that to be possible; and I don't think Tesla has officially commented on it either.

Tesla's been silent lately regarding this. Last I heard Cdn. Sigs were supposed to be before R and P, but my most recent inquiries to Hans have gone unanswered. Not even an email saying, "I can't comment on that yet". I assume our bureaucracy is doing what bureaucracy does best.

Psst - Tesla: CAD is at par with the USD.

 

[brianman]

Oh, hey, I didn't notice 'til now...

We'll know pretty quickly when Canadian S1 gets the call as long as KBF stays around.

I have a slight TMC addiction. I blame it on serious delayed gratification side effects. :wink:

KBF do you have a Roadster, i.e. is that Signature Special #1?

 

[KBF]

No, you and a dozen or so others are ahead of me. I wish I had a Roadster, but I got an electric motorcycle instead. (cheaper, works for my commute)

Some encouraging words from Hans today:

All Roadster owners will receive their Signature Series before non-Roadster owners. I've been told two more weeks for CDN pricing and that it will be fair and transparent and not an incentive to import from the US.

Some encouraging words from Hans today:

Encouraging indeed, but cautiously so.

Ball is in Tesla's court... Let's hope they don't drop it!

 

[KBF]

So was he saying that Canadian SSL's would get theirs before Canadian S's (which we already knew), or was he saying that Canadian SSL's would get theirs before USA P's (or before USA regular Sigs)? That's all quite different...
