Model 3 Performance Deliveries in 3Q18

[ValueAnalyst]

How many Model 3 Performance will Tesla deliver in the third quarter of 2018?

Relevant facts:

Model 3 Performance production started mid-June, and Model 3 Performance orders are prioritized.

Elon had previously noted:

Black & white interior available only for Model 3 Performance initially due to limited parts availability. Will broaden over time.

... and with respect to white interior's availability to non-performance orders, Elon noted:

Three or four months, depending on demand level. We have enough for about 1000/week right now.

Tesla is also incentivizing its store employees to sell Model 3 Performance with a $300 commission.

Finally, The Wall Street Journal just published a stellar review: First Test Drive of the Tesla Model 3 Performance: A Thrilling, Modern Marvel

I'm guessing 51,000 model 3 deliveries for Q3. I think about 20% of those will be performance 3s, so 10,200.

Where’s the “as many as possible” option?

 

[Tiger]

I believe they are going to make 5000+ performance models per week which is is effectively more like 45000+.

 

[Drax7]

5000 per week production x 12 weeks = 60,000 cars produced

No way of knowing, so I guess:
8,000 performance
