Now I'm feeling a bit guilty! But yes, the status now says production is complete and the car is on its way. I have just come back from a week overseas where I've had very patchy access to internet. I only just checked the site today, so I have no idea how long ago the status changed. I'm having charging validation done at my place on Monday night, so I'll see if the Tesla rep who comes (Cary or Mitchell?) whether they know.

No reason to feel guilty, quite the opposite you are hopefully leading the charge (no
pun intended!). It gives us all some hope!

Brother's car is also on its way. That was the first thing I checked! Phew, internecine war averted.
Great - that confirms that it isn't a bug! I wonder how many will be in the first shipment?

Well, sig 9 is still sourcing! Also, my cars name has reverted to being model S signature from red devil. Retrograde step!
So perhaps only the first three or 4 sigs have gone through production. Interesting that IsBrowns car is a sig red, you would think that they would have put all of that specific colour through as the same batch given that it is a restricted colour.

Sounds like a fair guess.
Perhaps these are the launch event cars? Given the clientele they probably prioritised these cars. I wouldn't be surprised if the other sig cars come a bit later.

Well the estimated delivery in Tilburg is "late August", so with 38-40 days on the water I don't expect to see in NZ until mid-October.

Might be interesting to see what the factory shut down brings. Speculation on Teslamotors forum suggests there might be more than just an air ioniser being added as new hardware?
Maybe the wait for our cars might bring a bonus?

I wonder if they'll allow us to modify our orders if any new paid options are introduced?

Thanks
Thanks for that share MangroveMike. My car is still sourcing parts so guess that now includes a tin of 'Steel Grey' paint. I actually prefer the new colour but strange how they leave confirmed orders with no choice, or do they?
