Yesterday, they left a message. I just got off the phone with the CS, he told me the "Plaid+ was moved back to mid 2022, and asked if I would I like to get priority on a Plaid?". I asked when it would be delivered, he said within the next few weeks, by end of quarter. I will wait.
It may be that plaid after a few months of deliveries, turns out to be a compelling car, while the plus keeps getting pushed out like the roadster.
Interesting... I went to the same Tesla showroom (UTC, right?) two days ago and the SA there didn't even know that Plaid deliveries were moved up to June.
Yes utc. She said without a “match” the delivery would be Q3 but I’m wondering how different SAs can have such conflicting information.
I haven't but was contemplating this exact same thing.
Discrimination against those thinking people that prefer white cars?
I'm wondering if the attribute "isNotMatchedToRa00Vin":true from the web page is the same thing. That's what I have (ie not matched). Does anyone see a value of "false" here? For those with narrow June delivery timeframes or with Plaid orders, would you please check and let us know? I would think those with value of false here will see their deliveries in June.

Totally agree..being retired, will be my next color if/when I get a plaid. But not optimal for daily driver in my area.
I just looked at this on my LR order and my Plaid order. LR is listed as August delivery and Plaid is listed as June delivery but they both show "isNotMatchedToRa00Vin":true
I would assume NO. I believe the reason for call is to get plaid+ orders off the books and put people into a car that will definitely be manufactured. If I ordered a plaid+, I would not be certain that the car will ever be produced. My SA told me that he personally had not had any plaid+ orders.
All of that makes sense, but, politicians rarely do sensible things. Besides, it makes it look like feds are subsidizing expensive toys for rich people and that won’t sit well with progressivesThe point of the EV incentive is to provide a $ incentive to buy an EV rather than a polluting ICE car. So a $10K incentive that causes someone to buy a base M3 instead of an Accord still costs the Feds $10K, but results in replacing a 30MPG car with an EV. Good.
But the $10K incentive on a $150K car results in replacing a 10MPG car with an EV. Isn't the more value and benefit to the environment for the same cost?
Why continue to encourage high-end high-polluting luxury and super cars when there would be far more bang-for-the-buck to extend the EV incentive to this group?
I emailed my congressman both senators and the president. I suggest others do as well:
