Just some more data points if anyone finds it helpful.
I also applied through Tesla Financing yesterday (5/19/21) since the expected 60 day approval is about 2 weeks (delay buffer) past the back end of my delivery estimate (6/9 - 6/30).
Received almost instant approval for 60 months @ 2.49% from Wells Fargo.
Then applied with PenFed and was approved for 1.99%, still 60 months. From PenFed's Contact Support page, I asked if they could email me an approval confirmation.
I then forwarded that 1.99% confirmation to
[email protected] (based on suggestions on "Tesla Loan Comparison" thread) stating I recived a better rate as shown and asked if the 2.49% rate could be improved. They forwarded my request to
[email protected]. Based on suggestions on this thread, seems I should have sent the request to
[email protected].
All of this happened within minutes, but after hours (~6pm Pacific) yesterday, so still waiting for a response, but also checking Tesla account to see if rate has been updated.
