Latest Update on Production Schedule and Estimated Deliveries
I spoke to my delivery specialist yesterday to find out what the current production schedule really is, and to see if I could get a handle on when I could realistically expect to see my car (P2009 85kW).
He said that the are still at the 200 cars/week level, and would need another couple of weeks to finish up the last of the Sigs. By that point, they hope to ramp up to 400 cars/week...There are no guarantees that they will be able to at that time...But that is their hope. However, once they do make the shift to 400 cars/week, THAT is when then will be able to give more accurate delivery estimates for the Production cars. At this point, he can estimate that my P2009 won't arrive until at least mid-to-end of January. My most recent estimate prior to that was late November-early December. Clearly I wasn't thrilled with this latest update (delay), but I'm trying to be Zen...It's been 2 1/2 years, what's another couple of months... :/
Also, I asked how realistic my 2009 number was, taking into account the reservation holders ahead of me that either a)Upgraded to a Sig, b)Switched to a Model X, c)Ordered a 40 or 60 kW battery car, or d)Dropped out all together. He said that those numbers are probably around a couple hundred or so...BUT, he also said that they will be making the Non-Sig Roadster owners/friends&family cars immediately prior to the general Production cars, and that there are a few hundred of those. So, as far as my P2009 is concerned, it's realistically still right around 2000 on the list from the time they finish with the Sigs and move on to the Production cars.
So, that's the update...I hope this enlightens any of you that have been wondering what's going on...And if you've heard anything contrary to what I was told yesterday, I'd love to hear about it.
