Ordered blue with white interior, FSD on 11/30, and I'm doing a trade-in. I'm also over 500 miles away from the nearest SC. My payment has been lined up (partial financing from Alliant is waiting for MVPA), and I'm just waiting on a VIN. Nothing in source yet. They assigned a delivery coordinator (carrier direct delivery) while I was asking about financing questions, so I emailed him today to ask about anything I could do to help make the end of year tax credit happen. He suggested that I go to a SC instead if I wanted the tax credit, which is fun. I don't think I'll do that for a variety of reasons (there's snow up here and I want to get winter tires on before I drive much... especially over 500 miles).
I'm pretty sure I won't get anything by year's end, and I'm going to be pretty disappointed if I lose that credit. I don't love that the ordering page basically assured me delivery by end of month, only to slightly change the wording to something about "we'll try our best" or whatever. I wonder whether they'll do anything to appease the hundreds of people who don't get offered delivery by end of month? I'd be happy enough if they knocked $1k off the final price.
