Wiki Model S Delivery Update

You can email your Delivery Specialist for an estimated delivery date. You can find that on your Tesla account page in the “Manage” section. I assume your delivery will be in Cathedral City, in which case your contact is probable Efraim (good guy, very helpful).

You are correct that the VIN is assigned shorty after confirmation. I’m willing to bet your car will be delivered by the end of June so it will be reflected in the June quarter, but don’t hold me to it. Two of us in the desert ordered in mid March and haven’t been given production start dates.
Thanks for the fast reply. Yes, my account page does show Efraim as my Delivery Specialist. What did you order and when? Just curious.

Ordered an S100D on March 9, confirmed the 13th with VIN assigned shortly thereafter. I’m taking delivery in Fremont so I can take the factory tour. I’m hoping for a May 31 delivery.

You should confirm with Efraim no to apply for financing until you enter production. You don’t want your credit check being run twice. Loan commitments are usually good for only 30 days. Someone should be contacting you when it’s time.

That is so awesome that you are able to take a tour of the facility and take delivery of your car. On top of that a road trip home to break it in. Enjoy the experience.
 
Tesla just updated the Cream Premium option to come with Oak Decor vs. the Figured Ash Wood Decor. Does anyone know if those of us who have already ordred Ash will still get it OR will be be switched to the Oak? Or given a choice (unlikely)?

Thoughts?
Sorry - should have added for context that I wondered if this would impact delivery or production start of my S (why I posted in this thread).

My guess is we who have already ordered will get the figured ash, and this change affects orders from today. My reason is the ash is still offered on the two black interiors, so there must be supply on hand. I wouldn’t mind the oak to be honest.
 
Same here:
We wanted to let you know that your Model S order has been upgraded: the silver interior trim throughout your cabin has been updated with our new graphite finish.

Since your Model S was configured before we introduced this interior update, your order has already been upgraded and there is no action required on your end.
 
I got an email this morning that 3/19 order (white interior) was upgraded automatically to the new interior. Not much different just the silver trim is now a darker graphite color. It looks pretty nice in my opinion!

I got same message at 7:30 a.m. Now if I could just get a production date.

“We wanted to let you know that your Model S order has been upgraded. The Cream Interior in your car will now be paired with our new Oak Décor to complement its refined, modern aesthetic. In addition, the silver interior trim throughout your cabin has been updated with our new graphite finish.

The interior looks nice. What if someone doesn't like the new interior since its different from what they chose when they ordered? This could be bait and switch for a 100K car, i'm guessing there will be some buyers remorse.
 
That's worrisome... I'm waiting to see my car enter production before applying for financing...

I got an update as well. I guess the interior changes are occurring now, expect changes...;)

No kidding! The wait is excruciating.

Agreed! Exactly my thoughts lol. I ordered around the same time as you all - 3/13. The only update I have been able to get is that they are expecting a mid-May production with a mid-June delivery.

I have the carbon fiber option so the only thing updated was the new trim. Still excited as ever!
