Hmmmm
Rushing to get cars shipped. Getting calls from sales to swap a + order for a June Plaid delivery. What, not enough demand for currently produced Plaid?
As much as it hurt to wait three months on my P85D, I was very glad not to get all the problems Tesla shipped in the first three months. It would seem as though that would be a safe route this time as well given the push to ship these cars.

Hopefully Elon tells LR purchasers that limbic resonance is also in store for us.

Anyone taking bets on whether this event actually happens this time or will there be another delay in order to achieve a beyond limbic resonance?

Drove by Fremont factory on Friday, saw quite a few car haulers, all model y and 3’s
Was kinda disappointed i would have assumed a few model S’s would be shipping out to deliver after the 10th but nope didn’t see any. If I had to guess I’d say they’ll delay it again or there won’t be any actual deliveries but rather more info followed by more waiting.

Real Mars has a picture of a lot somewhere in Fremont full of Plaid Ss. Guessing they will all go to people who can pick them up at the factory this weekend and save the haulers for all the 3s and Ys they need to ship now that they aren’t waiting for lumbar chips and are just shipping without them (hopefully they are using what they do have on the Plaid S). The end of quarter push is on and they likely have many more orders for cheaper cars that appear to be much easier and faster to build.
The latest Tesla website Model S configurator for my order now shows the Tempest wheels as having a dark smoky grey shade instead of the previous brushed silver shade. There is still no estimated delivery date for my Model S (ordered March 12th). It will be interesting to see what else is revealed at the June 10th Model S delivery event. I'm still wondering if 4680 cells will be among the announcements for the refreshed models.
There will be a ton of very upset plaid+ reservation holders if the plaid cars have 4680 cells.
With the cancellation of the plaid+ they won’t have much choice.. but I doubt there is any battery change at this point — they can hardly source trim pieces.

Why would they be upset? They can get 98% of the performance for a much lower price. 1.99 0-60 instead of 1.9? Sure there is slightly less range but the cost savings is pretty significant.
Because we've been sitting on reservations for a 4680 car that just got cancelled. If I was willing to pay more to get the first 4680 car and the Plaid gets 4680, I'm sitting here with a worthless reservation and no car. Or I have to change my reservation back to a normal plaid and wait however long to get the Plaid when I could have had it on launch day if Elon would have just explained what was going on.
