More pics on Electrek just now. Does that mean it is closer to delivery? There is a round wheel, and a smart shift option.

One factor affecting deliveries possibly, is both the round and yoke wheel are stalk less.
Maybe, it is just a regulatory matter, and when resolved, the wheels/yokes are easily changed at the SvC.
My guess is the cars with round wheels will be the first cars delivered.

I renewed last weekend. Am totally expecting for that $800 to be wasted by a Model S delivery in the next 7 days!I just gave in and renewed the tabs on my current car which expired this week (was really hoping the S would get delivered before). So this pretty much guarantees VINs will get assigned tomorrow
It will be $800 well spent. That’s how usually it happens with me. In fact one of my friends recently told me that while he was leasing he never got a decent job offer. The minute he bought a home, he got an out of state offer that blew him away but was too late

This is "old", but the comments are very informative if you are trying to guess how close to delivery these cars really are.Yes, if it is older than 10 minutes then any news is stale by this thread’s standards
My guess, weeks to months out:

In case one did not care to read the whole reddit thread, key points I found are:
Cars will come with round wheel, upgrade later with regulatory approval.
Real shift controls on the wheel. Don't have to let the car guess if you don't want to.
V11 looks to be a significant improvement.

Per the reddit post, most likely a test mule. Cars will ship with round wheel.
This makes me wonder... Is this really for testing or for hype? Tesla is known to do stuff like this... What on Earth are they testing in Charlotte? Lol

My guess, both...
IMO, everything but the round wheel and plaid plus features such as new cells are good to go. You would not retool a factory and supply chain unless you were 99.99% certain that things would work as planned.
Swapping a steering wheel is trivial.
The yoke will take a while. Main purpose is to create buzz and a short seller trap when it comes out and folks rave about it.
If I felt I could time a dip in the share price I would do it. Meanwhile, HODL.
But wouldn't people getting behind the wheel and seeing and posting all the new features create more "buzz" than a few spotted videos? Idk this all seems odd to me
Even though the exterior of the refresh isn’t much different from the current S, it definitely has a more muscular stance especially with the 21s. The car looks great in recent pics.

Pure speculation follows.
The Elon minders were not able to mute his desire for no steering wheel. Compromise was a yoke.
Someone dropped the ball on getting full regulatory approval, causing a delay in shipping to customers.
Now, the plan will be a big announcement just before the missed earnings and deliveries showing an approved yoke and thousands of cars hidden through out the country, ready for delivery, with a 10k car order backlog.
End of speculation.

Yea so obviously all those Model S's we saw from the drone footage are testers shipped to service centers all over the country.. The biggest question is.. Has anyone seen a test vehicle with Red calipers?? I really think the only new S's out in the wild are LR with different configs... I really don't think a plaid has been made yet!
