Latest "Finalize your order" date

[zdre]

Congrats! Could you ask for spoiler separately? I'll pay you to ship it to me :biggrin:! I will put it in my bed to hold me over until my Model S arrives

Anyone who is getting performance without spoiler - I would like to have one if it can be delivered separately. Will post pics ^^^^

I asked and they will not deliver it separately, but can be removed without paint damage. Decided to keep mine since I like how it looks in subsequent pictures.

No "finalize" emails have gone out recently? I guess they are doing it by batch not on a continuous rolling basis...

 

[AnOutsider]

I got my MVPA yesterday, and it was explained that they got backed up reaching out to people who had already confirmed regarding the obeche wood change and the new paint armor option.

 

[efusco]

Nobody got a notice today?? Dang it, was hoping to get the call next week, but that seems pretty unlikely.

I'm also wondering if there will be a "pause" between the end of the signatures and the beginning of the 'Rs. After all, there will be many more options, etc. I certainly hope they are ready to at least keep up the current pace right away.

We all hope that. The rate of calls should exceed rate of production to compensate for dropouts and referrals.

Last week they sent out the emails on Thursday. So maybe today, crossing my fingers...

 

[StephRob]

I have to say that this is just killing me!! I've been waiting so long for this car and now these last few days before I get the confirmation email have just been brutal. I'm Sig #731. And I'm in the Bay Area so I'm dying waiting for both my "Finalize" email and the Fremont June 23/24 test drive email. I'm checking my email so often I'm wearing out my phone. Just email already Tesla!!! OK, just had to get that off my chest and now I feel better . . .

First, GRATS! Second, wow, they started Tuesdays and we've crept all the way into Fridays. Next batch will likely be the Monday after first deliveries then.

I have a feeling they will probably finish up all the Sig emails before the 22nd. Then there will maybe be a hiatus before general production (Canadian Sigs) emails start flowing out.

Thanks AnOutsider. I was starting to wonder if they were going to skip this week for new configs.
I wonder if the delay was due to implementing the all-online ordering process. Here's an excerpt of the email I just received:

DESIGN YOUR MODEL S
Please log in to your MyTesla Account to select your options. When logged in, please click "Design" under My Garage to access the Configurator and start the process. Once you have decided on your options, hit "Save". Then all you need to do is send us an email or give us a call at 888.771.2505 to get your paperwork finalized.

For all of you that configured in weeks past, was this language included in your "It's Time to Build Your Model S" email or is this new?

 

[AnOutsider]

Nope, we designed over the phone. I suspect they'll just pull up the config you made to make the process a little easier but will still verify the options and any issues you may face (21" wheel ride quality for example) and any optional things you may want such as financing and trade-in.

ElSupreme, you're probably right. That's what I'd do anyways.

 

[Beaker]

Got the email this morning.
Sig 915

At this rate, they'll probably finish the sigs this week, then start whittling down the standby list next week.

 

[digitaltim]

Sig 737 configured and waiting on paperwork (and ETA) - fully loaded:

Performance
Sig Reg
Pano Roof
Spoiler
21" Silver Wheels
Black Seats w/ Piano
Rear Facing Seats
Paint Armor

EDIT: Preliminary Quote & MVPA signed - ETA of September

I regret my ignorance, but please tell me what you meant my "the standby list?"

 

[Tommy]

I regret my ignorance, but please tell me what you meant my "the standby list?"

Tesla has an official "waiting list" for general production reservation holders to put their name on and fill in the cancellations of any Signature reservation holders. AnOutsider is referring to that list as "the standby list" AnOutsider's terminology, my guess, taken from the airline industry.
