Wow 2 weeks from order to delivery? I wonder what this says about the order backlog. Are they prioritizing CA orders to meet quarterly goals or has the backlog pretty much dropped to 0?
When we ordered they told us it was a very short backlog and that they could get the car by the end of the month if we confirmed our order on the 14th, which would lock in a lease rate that was ~ $110 less per month (which we ended up not taking).
I'm assuming the orders have decreased in anticipation of next week's event?

I think that was an end of the quarter push. I ordered earlier this week and no such offer.
For the lease option it certainly was a push for the quarter, they unabashedly admitted that if delivery was taken this quarter then you could get the lower price.
I only found out about the fast turnaround time on an order from a specialist in the store; the order online said April-May delivery.
I FINALLY got it! Picked up yesterday at noon in Decatur. What an incredible machine! I let it drive me home, about 350 miles with a stop at the Greenville supercharger.
Here's a couple of pics. The first is at the Delivery Center; the second at the Greenville supercharger. Sorry these shots aren't as crip as most - I have a really cheap phone (but a really expensive - and worth every penny - car!).
I'm really dreading driving my pickup truck on trips in the future. Just a few hours with "PRU" and I'm dreading any vehicle with crash-into-anything cruise control that I have to manually steer down the highway.

Lucky guys in the States... I ordered my 90D on Feb the 5th... and will be delivered June - July :-(
OK, the Atlantic is large, I leave in Switzerland...
Car delivered by truck this morning.....and was undrivable! 12 volt was dead. Driver didn't know what to do. I called Tesla, they said would have to be towed. They called local Tesla, and so did I. They brought me a loaner but couldn't get my brand new car to do anything. Tow driver had to jump 12V to get into tow mode to get on the truck. He called me when he got to the local service bay (not a full SC) and said there were no more error messages and he was able to unload the car without problems. I told him to leave it so they could replace battery and diagnose. The Tesla folks have all been nice, but REALLY?
Thanks Boatguy, my pick up date is next Saturday(04/02). I am with you, last time I had leased a BMW for 15,000 miles but never used reached 45,000 miles by end of lease and I felt later that I paid in waste for those extra miles. So this time going for lower miles lease and will pay later for whatever I put extra.
My car has been in production 2 weeks! I'd really like to know what some cars fly through and others take forever. Went into production 3/14. Ordered a nearly fully loaded 70D.
My Model S 70 went into production on March 24. Let see how long mine will take. I actually wanted mine to be delivered mod April to give me time, but looks like it might be done much sooner from what everyone is saying once the car is in production.
They told me mine is now in general assembly. I don't think it takes that long once it gets into assembly but I could be wrong. They originally told me it would be ready this week but something is holding it up.

Took delivery on 3/24 of Model S70. Ordered 2/29 or so. Car has been great, though AP has some issues that need checked out ( no lane change, drifting right within lane). Financed through Alliant with rep. Mark Wooster (773-462-2166; [email protected]) who made the process very simple and quick.

Just got a call from my Delivery Specialist. They are pushing hard for delivery on 3/31 at the Paramus SC in NJ.
Apparently my S snuck into a truck which significantly reduced the shipping time.
My delivery specialist sounded surprised while explaining to me how the delivery was supposed to be pushed well into Q2.
I am so excited!!
