Just bought my LONG RANGE Model Y made in Austin

[chippwalters]

Yeah I know it sounds crazy but I went into the Tesla showroom in Austin to talk about my model Y which is supposed to be delivered in December and the showroom guy there called up the list of cars available and it turned out that a demo Long range model Y with a serial number saying it was made in Austin was available. I was able to transfer my existing order and it's (lower than current) price tag to the new car, not to mention I also received a discount because it had a few demo miles on it.

I remarked that I thought only short range model Ys were being built in Austin to which they said a recent notice was sent out saying they are now starting on long range model Ys.

I pick it up in 2 days. Really looking forward to it.

Lucky! The SA I spoke with in Plano said they didn’t have any demos and was a little rude about it. I don’t mind getting one from another part of the state.

Do you mind sharing the VIN with us?

Did the configuration match exactly? If the config was different, how did the SA handle that?

I had a MYLR that was going to be delivered last week on the West coast from Fremont. I updated the delivery location to Dallas and the delivery slipped all the way to Nov-Jan...! I am super bummed and wondering if it has something to do with how they're filling orders from Austin...

I wonder when MYP's will be coming out from Austin! 2023 model year?

Have you talked with your SA?

Did you mean they are working on long range model 3s?

It wasn't a white 7-seater, black seats, no other options, by any chance, was it? I managed to pick one up from an advisor that appeared in "the system" Sunday morning. The FIL drove it home yesterday from Fremont.

From Fremont to Maryland?? WOW. Heckuva pickup!

No, I helped my FIL near Fremont get a Y, which he picked up yesterday.

You're welcome! Small community (kind of)...

I picked up my Austin MYLR today. Excellent build quality.

Interesting that they just started building LR at Austin with first pick ups today and yet they already have an EOQ demo to sell. Must be a car used for internal testing around Austin. Hopefully build quality is good.

Where did that luggage area privacy cover come from? Did it come with the MY?

 

[DM231191]

@Rickb3210 amazing! Have fun with it! How do you find the privacy cover and does it affect the sound quality of the speakers?

I thought there were no dealerships in TX and you had to ship to next door state.
