Delaying Model Y delivery

[AndrewVo]

Hi Everyone,
I placed my Model Y order on February 29th, 2020 and I just received a text from Tesla that my Model Y is on its way to Costa Mesa, CA delivery center. I did not expect it to be ready this fast and during this economic situation, I'm not so sure I want take delivery right now. Is there a way for me to delay delivery for a few months? If so, who should I contact?

My Model Y configuration:
Pearl White, AWD, Gemini Wheels, black interior and no FSD.

Dang, if only you selected the white interior, I'd be all over taking your VIN.

I have read other threads that your delay is very possible, sorry I am no help.

Contact your delivery manager. They can delay for you no problem!

I can take over your VIN. Not sure if Tesla allows transfer though.

I'm not sure who my delivery manager is. All I got was a text lol (seems to be automated). During my Model 3, I was assigned an advisor whom I communicate with. Not so much now...

I just decided today to delay mine as well (LR AWD Blue/Black, Gemini , non-FSD, Cinci, OH 6/16). They originally gave me a good trade-in estimate for my Model 3 (LR AWD, Blue/black, aero, FSD), but the 30 days elapsed and, with only about 30 more miles on the car than 5 weeks ago, they dropped my value by about 10% now that the 3 price decreased and the car market is crap. I could sell it for better price, but in Ohio, trade-ins decrease sales tax as well. That, the upcoming battery day unknowns, upcoming FSD price increase and presumably better economy are my main reasons to delay, as well as getting any more bugs out of production. I'm in no hurry, so my brain took over my heart's desire of having a Y, which addresses the very few shortcomings of the 3 for me (more cargo, more rear passenger space, easier entry/exit).
