A leap day to remember
I just received the "Your Model S Has Entered Production" email from Tesla. 40 days from order confirmation to entering production.
The last couple of weeks have been especially hard as I've been watching orders that were confirmed one to three weeks after mine entering production. I'm not sure if the longer wait was due to prioritizing 85 orders over 90 orders, the color (Titanium Metallic), or something else, but now that it's behind me I'm not going to worry about it.
Thanks to frequent updates from my DS, I got a sense of the amount of variability in the scheduling process. Here is the history of scheduled production week for my specific car:

Guess what I saw in "My Tesla" portal today? "Your Tesla has been built and is in transit from the factory."
I'm picking up at the factory, so there should be very limited time in transit, but due to my work schedule will likely not be able to pickup the car for a couple more weeks...
Ordered my MS70 (RWD) on 01/25
Entered production email received on 02/24
Have not heard yet from my DS on the potential delivery date options.

Sounds promising - my 70D just entered production today. Based on your timelines above, I should expect the car to be at the Milford SC within the next 20 days or so :smile: Do you know how your S made it across the country? Truck, train?
VIN 125792

Delivered to Tampa Service Center 2/29
P90D Obsidian black, Black interior, Carbon Fiber Decor, Glass roof, Grey Wheels, Ludicrous Mode, Autopilot, Premium interior and lighting, Smart Air Suspension, UHF Sound, Subzero Weather Package (Absolute must for Tampa!)

Maybe there was something on constraint that caused you car to be delayed? Paint color? Interior color? Who knows.
Bottom line, in two weeks for you it really won't matter!
Congratulations!

DS called me and my car was finished early this weekened. Should be on a truck soon and then a couple more days after that and my car should be here. They anticipation is getting ridiculous.
I received an email from my DS that my car was in transit as of yesterday on its way to Milford CT. Looks like I will end up getting the car a few weeks earlier than anticipated!

The wait is hard...
2/14/16 - Order Date
2/21/16 - Confirmed
2/21/16 - VIN issued
DS is telling me to expect a late March delivery. Anyone know the average delivery time to the Tampa, FL location?

True average can only be deduced by talking it over with your sales office. Maybe the folks there would know?
But 2-4 weeks from Production complete to "Shined up and ready for you" is perhaps a good target. You need to go into production soon and then trucked to the east coast. If put on a train, it won't make it there by 3/31.
Confirmation of 2/21 and end of March delivery would be considered "very good" based on historical time lags. My guess is you go into production by this Friday, complete by next Friday or sooner and then delivery by 3/30.
