Just saw delivery estimate go from Nov to Jan!

my.teslamotors.com should tell me which robot is working on it now and a picture of it. :-/ Just sayin....

Yeah, given the tech innovation that this company represents and how freakin fanboy most customers are, I would think you'd be able to livestream your build. That would be awesome.

This is strange. Mine still shows Late November-December. Our cars are only about 500 vin numbers apart, and they both entered production on 11/16.

My specs are 85D, silver, pano, 19s, black next-gen, black headliner, premium interior, piano black, SAS, and AP.

Someone with a delay should contact their DS. If it's for a hardware revision, I would ask for a delay rather than receive an "old" Model S.

Hardware revision would be excellent.

Mine was already in production though, so not sure this is the case...

Wait, your car was already in production - not in the queue, but in production - and your delivery date moved from Nov to Jan?

That's correct.

 

[andrewket]

That's correct.

That's very odd. The only other time I've seen that is when a car failed quality and assurance and tesla decided to rebuild. In that case the person received a new VIN.

Well that's not comforting. As of now it says I have the same VIN I was originally assigned.

Mine confirmed 3 days before you and has been in production since the 12th. Mine still shows late Nov-Early Dec. I'll call my DS tomorrow to confirm. Mine

Very curious what you can find out!

I've requested postponed delivery to earliest date in 2016, which I was told will be mid January. This morning I saw change from "January, 2016" to "February, 2016 - Early March, 2016". Which is 45 extra days!!!

I was very angry just 10 minutes ago, but now, considering Speculate: what will be included in the next major revamp of the Model S? and 2016 VIN, maybe it's not such a big deal.....

Update: DS said that delivery date was pushed indeed, but only for 2-3 extra weeks, and that MyTesla portal is being extremely safe with estimates.

My Tesla went into production 11/19/15 and the estimated deliver hasn't changed from late Nov - Dec. But still in production today.

 

[aesculus]

I wonder if this is more of a hedge on delivery estimates versus production times? I am Nor Cal and if I use the Design Studio today I still get a late December estimate. Does it change much after you actually place an order?

 

[rcarpen22]

Hardware revision would be excellent.

Is there any chance of this?

 

[WMAC]

Do they give any consideration to people who are trading in vehicles?

 

[WMAC]

Just read in another thread that they switched to using trains for delivery in certain locations and that can add four weeks to delivery time. I am speculating that they want to hit delivery targets for December and all of 2016 to satisfy shareholders and sandbag for higher numbers in 2017 with higher deliveries and margins with train vs. truck delivery.

 

[AWDtsla]

Do they give any consideration to people who are trading in vehicles?

No. I just got assigned December 25th to Jan 8th, after hearing "late November" from the DS several times. Trade in happened weeks ago.

 

[ndhaon91]

Ordered 10/7, confirmed 10/14, build started 11/16. My delivery estimate has been late Nov/early Dec all along, and appears to be unchanged at this point. 85D, black, pano is only upgrade.

 

[Vigile]

Odd I just had another update today.

December 11, 2015 - December 25, 2015
This time frame is only an estimate and is subject to change based on current production schedules and option availability. Please expect that this timing will shift to provide the most accurate estimate possible. Your delivery appointment will be confirmed by your Delivery Experience Specialist once your vehicle is fully assembled and en route to the nearest Tesla location for final inspection and preparation.

Just noticed that my deliver timeframe has become "tighter" instead of it saying Late-Nov to Early-Dec it now says November 27th to December 11th.

I wonder what phase of production makes the timeframe get tighter? Does anyone know how far along this might mean I am?

 

[rcarpen22]

My page has said late December - January 2016 for the last week or so. Sometime yesterday or day before, it switched to Dec 22 - Jan 5. Then today, my car showed as production complete and the delivery went to Nov 30 - Dec 5. I am east coast. Now I have to scramble to get my 14-50 finished, but I'm not complaining
