Doesn't a traditional dealer effectively pre approve or confirm ability to pay, before allowing you to order/buy the car and therefore has all the personal data to provide the final specifics at the time of order/purchase?
This is an interesting point, I wonder how many people end up not being able to secure financing after ordering a car. I would imagine the number must be small right now, or Tesla would implement some sort of pre-qualification into the early process.
Wonder if they will need to add that once they start selling in volume. I always know before I buy a car whether or not I am qualified to buy (and I pull my credit beforehand just to make sure an error hasn't appeared) but I get the impression there is a semi-large segment of the population that just "shows up and sees what happens" when they are buying a car.
