Discussion: Model Y General Waiting room for orders placed After January 2023
- Thread starter acpd
- Start date
Is not mandatory for NC state. You can take a cashier's check on the day of delivery. My friend did that at Raleigh, NC. Why don't you ask them about this?
Tesla's vision is that there will come a day when the critical component extraction process will be adequately efficient and there will be enough scrapped batteries available to negate the need for mining. Wow! What a thought!
How much energy will be required to recycle batteries? Where will this energy come from? If it comes from renewable sources such as solar or wind, how about the energy required to build the solar cells and wind generators? 
Oh wow. I would talk to your SA and ask what is going on. Or maybe even walk into the dealership to get some help.Me sitting here with a PA073 vin assigned for nearly a month and a TBD delivery date
That makes sense. My vin was assigned to me on 3/5. The SA said the car has a build date of 3/4.
It is very easy to find out.
just go to your Tesla web account (not app) and click “edit design”, then select performance.
do not be afraid to do so, it will show you the new price and you need to approve by click a button.
I tried this when I got bored/frustrated waiting a few days ago, and it gave me the old January price ($4k higher than LR).
Both of my adult boys wanted me to upgrade (one owns a MSP ludicrous) but my wife wants one with comfort ride, she is the boss.
MYLR Blue/Black/19/Tow.
OD: 1/20
VIN:2/21
Schedule delivery email: 3/1
Delivery scheduled for 3/9 (today).
Location: Warwick (RI).
Delivery was confirmed yesterday 6pm. This morning my SA called to say that for reasons he cannot disclose (said all personnel are affected), they will be closed today until Monday and my delivery must be rescheduled to Monday. This is a major inconvenience as we let go of the other car yesterday (and moved things around at work) as we were taking delivery today, so now we may end up having to rent a car until Monday. The car is there, ready to go in their parking lot (saw it the other day).

That series got lost in the SpaceX mission.Me sitting here with a PA073 vin assigned for nearly a month and a TBD delivery date
On a serious note find something from inventory and swap it they will give you on old price if you are able to contact someone from your tesla dealer ship.
that's what i did
I had the same vin PA073 (TBD EDD since day 1)
2 days before changed from inventory got new VIN PA080 and the delivery is tomorrow.
How on earth is that tail light within specifications? Either the service center teams are super annoyed by the amount of work they are getting or, Tesla has very very poorly agreed upon specification limits. Below is the tail light on the right side which looks so much better than the left
I never attempted to cancel. Even if I’d bought a Toyota the other day, I’d have let the order ride and let them transport it to Tucson and just not responded and let it time out (give them a little if their own communication style).Nice... happy for you.. Was this before or after you attempted to cancel?... btw... remember I told you the other day that Fl, Tucson guys who ordered after me were getting their VINs. You're now a living example of no consistency in their EDDs. As a good friend of mine @ghostrider78 told me once, "If we knew the arithmetic/logic behind the production ordering, sequencing and delivery of Teslas, we could open up a consulting firm and make money out of it"
This whole thread is living proof of their inconsistent EDD’s. I just find it hilariously ironic that the very day they blew off my 3/10-3/31 EDD and moved it out to May 21 was when my car was actually going through the assembly line in Austin. There’s something seriously wrong with that picture. I think they’re purposefully screwing with everyone who ordered at the all time low prices. Every $52,990 MYLR customer they can get to cancel their order let’s them sell it to someone at $54,990 base price. If I’d have cancelled, they would have assigned my car to someone ordering later at $1500-2000 more which helps their bottom line.
When I edit my order, the price of MYP reflects the price it was at the time of my original order ($56,990).
(Now this has me thinking if I should actually upgrade to the MYP.)
Just scheduled for pickup at Tesla Irvine SC on Sunday 3/12. SA got back to me with a built date of 2/21 and approximate 8 miles on the odometer. I will see how the inspection go on the day and try not speculate too much. Probably trying to run there (~1.5 mile) to release my stress level first ... 
One thing I can think of with regards to all these wild swings maybe logistics. They would need commitment from their logistics partner as to what they could transport and with the surge of orders in Jan maybe they couldn’t get enough support in this area and were trying to secure this through any means necessary. Logistics also could be impacted by all the weird weather patterns we are seeing across the country as there could be delays and cancellations.
Congrats and all the best, It could also be a transportation delay, my car’s build date is Feb 25th Feb but my delivery is scheduled for Mar 16th as it’s in transit from Fremont to RaleighJust scheduled for pickup at Tesla Irvine SC on Sunday 3/12.

I bet you. If you upgrade you will be assgin a vin. That is me judging from your OD of LR. but I am just guessing not 100% sure and can be wrong lolWhen I edit my order, the price of MYP reflects the price it was at the time of my original order ($56,990).
(Now this has me thinking if I should actually upgrade to the MYP.)
Ikr. I will take it to the service center and see what they say. I hope they agree to fix it and it is a quick fix
It’s a new record in Raleigh, never seen a car sitting in inventory for more than few hours and here we have a red one available for one plus day. And it’s still there.
There had been a lot frustration on the inconsistent EDD on this thread.
And some even came up conspiracy theory.
Here is my opinion and I totally respect all other opinions.
I do not believe Tesla is in the business to get those with lower prices to cancel, so that they can sell the car to make a few bucks more.
Their interest should/must be to sell as many cars as possible, they would not get some customers upset and turn away from Tesla forever.
In Chinese, we call this "Killing the chicken to get the eggs (that are not out yet)".
They do need to improve communication and do better EDD "estimates".
And I hope someone (in Tesla public relationship) is reading all these forums to improve their practices.
But I really doubt they would upset a large number of customers to make $2K more risking losing these customers for a $53K deal each.
-------
I know it is easy for me to say this since my EDD changed only once EDD1 (1/23): 2/27-3/31, EDD2 (2/28): 3/14-3/31.
If my EDD dates were jerked many times back and forth like some of you had suffered, I probably would not be so calm.
