Discussion: Model Y General Waiting room for orders placed After January 2023
- Thread starter acpd
- Start date
No I did not. I went on Tesla's website, and clicked on Model Y and I had the option for Long Range or Performance. I selected Long Range, then selected the Blue color. I originally selected the 19 inch wheels (the default ones), then after placing the order, I called Tesla and spoke to a rep like 3-4 hours later and told him I wanted to change my build and I wanted the black 20 inch wheels. He said "you understand that it will increase the price of the car and if you're ok with that, then I'll make the change and text you a confirmation and just reply that you understand". I received a text within 5 min and accepted the change. That was it and had been waiting since Feb. 2nd.
Yes it is...so I read some owners were thinking because I'm in SoCal, I'd be getting a vehicle from the Fremont plant. That is not the case. Mine is from Austin, TX.
WoW. You are one the few ucky people who got the VIN so fast.
Yes. I'm reading here that some people have been waiting since mid-end of January and still haven't received a vin or delivery of their vehicles. I'm not sure why so there's no rhyme or reason. I'm not even going to guess if it's because I'm in socal or not. I applied for the Tesla loan on the app and got approved within a few minutes, because the interest rate of 5.44% was the lowest I had seen from banks. I belong to 2 credit unions and the interest rates were over 6-7%. I did put $10k down though, so I don't know if that made a difference or not. (The fact of the $10k down payment and I'm using Tesla's financing).
Totally agree with you here. I would also add the benefit starts even from ordering one without with the presence of slimy dealership sales tactics is refreshing. I owned a 2019 Porsche Macan and 2014 Porsche Cayenne (still does) for the family. Both cars were bought on their respective years. I would gladly forgo “performance” feeling to avoid the mountain of nonnegotiable maintence required of each cars.
Don’t get me wrong, Porsches are reliable with sustained maintenance. I have already spent $25k on the Cayenne and $3k on the Macan (I sold it before Tires, brake pads, spark plugs, oil change and brake fluids were due at 38k miles = $4000) I didn’t want to sell the Cayenne merely because I have a good memories and the car can sold for $11,000
. The next service will be $2500. Probably reconsider selling it after MYLR delivery.
I cannot wait to pick up my MYLR and adopt it as my personality. Will definitely NOT miss the maintenances.

Did you get a pick up date yet ? I am in SoCal too and I got my VIN on 02/17 and is an Austin Build - PA080xxx
I hope I get schedule delivery time by tomorrow. What is you vin series? Mine is PA076xxx.
No worries. They will give you options to re-schedule. What is the letter after PA0 ?We haven’t gotten the option to schedule delivery yet! EDD is 2/27-3/6 and hoping it’s in that time frame and not prior since we will be out of Cali for a weekend due to a funeral.
Based on what I read here changing tire/ rims to 20 will speed up EDD, at least 10 days. Austin perhaps

My armrest does the same thing, super annoying! I thought it was just mine that did it.
The "downside" is there is less hand holding and we as customers are kind of left hanging from time to time. If Tesla could get more organized and send periodic updates of our vehicles/order progress to keep us folks who are waiting informed would go a long way to reduce anxiety and build confidence in the process.Totally agree with you here.

Anyone concerned that with HW4 so close that they won’t fix some of the Tesla Vision issues like park assist?
Organization and keeping the customers informed aren't their strong suit. We set a level of expectation to get this high-demand product sooner as if it's a piece of tech like an iPhone, more so than a car. The current wait time is significantly lower than in prior years for this MY (6 - 12 months wait). Same thing to other high-demand low, supply vehicles like 4Runner, Supra, and Cayenne. These cars still have 4-6 months wait with an additional 10% "dealership adjustment" above MSRP. Regardless, Tesla needs to up their communications game.
