Wiki Model S Delivery Update

This site may earn commission on affiliate links.
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!!

When did you order and why was this supposed to be pushed into Q2?
 
Picked up mine today at the Dania Beach SC. Took about an hour. They were having a MX event there today.

Decent swag, Coffee mug, pen, Tesla lapel pin, umbrella and a nice T-shirt. The DS was Travis, and moved things along at the right pace for me.

I ordered on 3/6 expecting delivery before the April 15th to receive the referral credit.

My Delivery Specialist kept saying the delivery would be pushed into April. Today he said apparently my S got shipped by truck to make it for a Q1 delivery.

My DS just called me and they are going to ship by truck directly to my house instead of picking up at the dealership. Should have it this week supposedly so super excited. Looks like they are pushing for Q1 hard.

Awesome! At this point it looks like they wanted to deliver the remaining cars that were shipping in the US and push off international orders into Q2. That makes more sense since shipping is faster in the US.

Post pictures!

Wow, you get yours on the day they announce the model 3. You'll be totally exhausted at the end of that day. Congratulations

Yep, pictures will be posted :) Just signed the lease, car finished production today so looks like end of this week first part of next at the latest.
 
Took delivery of the car today! Swag we got was: FOB holders, an umbrella, a mug, and two bottles of water.

I want to note, that my car came with... a center console with a phone docking station! I didn't order one, so perhaps this is a new standard equipment item?

It seems like new cars are being delivered with the new console. You are the second to report that you got it. My car is delivered late this week (hopefully). I got the new wheels so I'm thinking i will get the console too.
 
Picked up the Tesla on Sat March 26 at the factory. Sorry, I have been working all weekend. I agree with every other new owner. This car is amazing. I have a great story to tell about the initial inspection. During the inspection, I noticed a spot in the middle of the hood a little smaller than a dime. I rubbed my finger across it and so did my buddy. I sure did feel like the paint had been chipped. Even the delivery specialist checked it and he said wow, that is a paint chip, but I don't know how that got past 3 different inspections. He went to get another young lady to look at it so she could write up the damage. She walked over to it in front of all of us and licked her finger and rubbed the mark and it came right off. LOL it was so funny. We all were laughing. I was so relieved I didn't have to deal with a repair on a brand new car. BTW, the day I ordered the car was the day they swapped to the new wheels. So I was lucky to get them AND when I arrived and looked in the car I saw the console in there as well. I gotta say I'm never that lucky. I got the windows tinted today and am working on getting the wheels powder coated in a week or two. I am one happy guy.

Congrats Anth! The new wheels looks awesome! Glad you got the new center console haha.

Looks like our cars went into production the same day! 3/17

My VIN is 133159.
 
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.

So wanted to make sure I update everyone that my AP is actually A-ok. Lane change assist was somehow turned off on my car so I turned it back on. Problem solved.

The car does tend to have some issues right now drifting right in the lane at times, but it's nothing terrible and hopefully it does get better the more and more AP is used.

Good luck to everyone waiting on their cars. It's a great vehicle.
