When I was in a Tesla store earlier this year the sales person told me they should have them by Christmas. Wouldn't the delay have to effect this date as well?
Source?Oh, I never thought of that. So in California we have a cooling off period, like 3 days to a week, cannot remember, it's been a few years. When you buy a new car you can bring it back, no harm no foul. Perhaps they just don't send your paperwork to the DMV until that period ends so they can still sell it as a new car with just whatever miles you put on it.
Car Buyer's Bill of Rights (FFVR 35)Used car buyers may purchase a two-day sales contract cancellation option.
There is no "cooling off" period unless you obtain a contract cancellation option. Consumers who purchase a used car for less than $40,000 must be given an opportunity to purchase a two-day Contract Cancellation Option Agreement.
What You Need To Know When Buying a Vehicle (FFVR 26)Used Car Buyers
Consumers who purchase a used car for less than $40,000 must be offered a two-day contract cancellation option agreement.
NOTE: There is no "cooling off" period unless you purchase a contract cancellation option agreement.
EXCEPTION: The contract cancellation option agreement does not apply to used cars priced at $40,000 or more, new cars, private party sales, motorcycles, off-highway vehicles, recreational vehicles, or vehicles sold for business or commercial use (does not include pickup trucks purchased for personal use).
Be aware that there is no "cooling off" period on vehicles purchased from a dealer unless you obtain a contract cancellation option, which is available when buying specified used cars from a licensed California dealer.
I wonder why Tesla would do that.I went to the closest Tesla store to me today (Park Meadows in CO) and spoke to one of the employees. He says that Tesla will have a fleet of 10 Model 3s that will drive across the country, stopping at each store along the way for test drives. He took my information and said emails will be sent out sometime in the next month for people to schedule their test drive. He didn’t know if reservation holders would have first priority or if order of reservation would matter. He said they aren’t advertising them because they don’t want the stores to be mobbed, so the only way to find out is to ask.
This store will apparently have them late January to early February.
Is this how the Model S got rolled out?
No one knows anything?
I heard similar to the person I talked to at the LA auto show. Reservation holders will get emails to test drive. She said not exactly on date as she can’t release but next 1-2 months. She didn’t say anything about a touring group. I live in SoCal though so I would guess we’d get to first?I went to the closest Tesla store to me today (Park Meadows in CO) and spoke to one of the employees.

They don't have to sell the car. Its already oversold/overbooked. for at least a year.

Did they finish delivering all of the California car delivery? Did they finish all of the employee deliveries?
I'm only saying what I'm saying because if someone reserves today....then their car won't be delivered for over a year. That's exactly why Elon says that they are anti-selling the Model 3.Because if people are looking at replacing their current car, if they lose interest in the model 3 and get something else, they are no longer in the market for another full cycle (3-8 years typically).
