Where’s your local shop? I’m in Columbus and really hope my car doesn’t get delivered to ClevelandI’m sure that will happen at some point in time.
As expected, I got the text this morning. I went to schedule my delivery and the only option I was given was to pick it up in Cleveland. On Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday of next week! So I called my local service center and something was wrong in the system. The advisor fixed it, but now I can’t schedule the pick up again.
I’m hopeful it still happens next week, but it’s now out of my hands!
That sucks. Mine should be interesting too. It's being delivered about 100 miles or so from me, and my trade-in is a BMW i3 that only gets about 70 miles of range on its crappy old battery. I was told they can't redirect the delivery locations without incurring a transport fee, even though they have 2 other locations closer to me. I'll just be grateful to finally get it!I’m sure that will happen at some point in time.

Mine is Clarkston, MI. And I knew it was initially going to Cleveland, I’m just not sure why it didn’t let me send it to Michigan.Where’s your local shop? I’m in Columbus and really hope my car doesn’t get delivered to Cleveland
I don't think it matters as long as it's before delivery. I did my financing through Tesla the same day I placed my order, and their approvals are good for 60 days, so if you're doing a M3LR that's supposed to be delivered by end of year, then it would qualify. Most people suggest waiting until the delivery window starts shrinking, in case you need to put a hold on the order, but... I don't think it matters if you do it now or if you do it closer to the actual delivery. It's not going to alter your wait time. For longer wait times over 2 months, you'd wanna wait so that approval doesn't expire.
I could not pay the down payment until delivery was scheduled.
A bit of it depends upon the state. For example, they cannot deliver to Michigan until the car is paid for. This is why unfunded cars go to Cleveland first. My car is currently in Chicago and I was told it would go to Cleveland if it’s not paid for first, but could come straight to Michigan if it is paid for. I’m just waiting for a funds transfer to complete so I can pay it off and I’m hoping that happens before it leaves for Cleveland.
I am not paying them the down payment until I have inspected the vehicle.
They just changed the presentation. They're still taking orders for new Long Range vehicles, claiming that they're "Available for local delivery in <location>" and there's no estimated delivery date in the future, suggesting that they can be obtained pretty much immediately. Also gone is the thing about canceling your order if they can't get the car to you by the end of the year. No Rear Wheel Drive or Performance trim vehicles are available that way, only Long Range.
There really isn't a policy or procedure for this. It's a per-situation thing. Contact your SA and let them know that the offered delivery times are a real problem for you and you'd like to move delivery to such-and-such a date and time.
