For those that disagree with this, listen again to the Conf Call. They are production-constrained, not demand-constrained. Any effort spent to increase or retain demand, at the expense of production, is improperly spent.

+1 Charged_Up to everything you wrote! My most expensive car ever was under $40k, and other than my house this is the biggest purchase I've made by a wide margin, and I'm doing it mostly blind. My wife thinks I'm totally nuts. A little extra communication isn't too much to ask!

Not much of a poster, but would call my rep every day for a delivery update if they were getting them! BTW, I dont know how to get it under my name, but Roadster V23 and Model S SSL173. Lurking on all boards Tesla!

The funny thing is that my wife often thinks I'm nuts, but she was the one prodding my to go for the performance upgrade (and she looks for a bargain in everything she buys) ... never, never attempt to figure out women, even after you've lived with them for decades!

Again I find three new pages dealing with hand wringing in this thread :crying:
I am thankful to all you Signature res holders, your early move displays a lot of courage. But you're paying for a signature car, not for a platinum communications package. There are pains to bear and, again, I am thankful that you take the brunt.
But, remember: if you now bail out of your Signature slot, someone else on the Signature wait list who moved in as late as Jun 2012 will take delivery of a Model S within the next 3 months, passing all general production res holders who waited for much longer! Is that fair?!

Those that moved in had to send in a $40K deposit in order to secure that spot and an earlier delivery date of their car.
While I still believe that Tesla will come through and get close to 5000 cars out this year, if the hand-wringing going on now turns out to be accurate and they only get some fraction of that done, a current sig customer would have to think twice about deferring due to the uncertainty of the tax credit next year. It has occurred to me that those who have questioned why they have to pay ~3K more for a sig model than the same model similarly configured after the sigs are all out may not have realized that the sig customers are much more certain of getting the $7500 tax credit.
While I enjoy most of the discussion of TMC, I must remind everyone that this thread is intended to be a place where we can get the latest delivery info "with minimum" (I knew that we would sometimes drift off topic so I did not say "no commentary" the 1st post by DrComputer was not a "delivery update" but yet was a great find).
Mods: Any thoughts on my banner idea with the last reported "Reservation" "Finalize" and "Delivery" numbers on the home page? This would save so much time trolling for this data which could be used for great Off Topic discussions ON OTHER THREADS !!! Thanks.
