Wiki Model S Delivery Update

[Ohmster]

Hey, has there always been a ‘Subscribe’ option in the ‘Buy Upgrades’ on our accounts?

Just noticed it for the first time and it says I have all of them.

As for delivery, no change in mine. Somewhere beyond the monkey’s dart range.

Well pour one out for the Plaid+ it is no longer an orderable trim level on the website (greyed out).

TBH, I was kinda expecting this. It seems they are going to be be hard pressed to meet demand for the new cells with the CT, Semi and Y without throwing the Plaid+ into the mix.

I think they rather have people buying the LR and Plaid now than sitting on Plaid+ order

Oh no...I’m glad I used the proper year in my signature: 202X Model S Plaid+

I was honestly hoping for some miracle to have Plaid+ still be a Late 2021 or Early 2022 delivery for existing reservations, but it no longer being available on the website means we’re taking these delivery updates to the moon with another year (or longer!) of speculation for Plaid+

New Plaid orders show June delivery, still showing August for my February Plaid order. Feels like a random date generator has been let loose causing havoc.

Interesting. In the Excel file from this thread, the ratio of LR to Plaid was pretty high. So, maybe they’re able to get through the Plaid backlog in their end of Q2 push and trying to maximize profits with additional deliveries of it?

Or, it’s a lie to coincide with the June 3rd date for building hype

Yes it's interesting that on the website a Plaid now shows as a June delivery date. I believe the June range more than August now.

lol I agree with your wife. Plenty of idiots on the roads would get butthurt thinking you’re looking down on gas cars. Some people already feel that way about people driving Tesla’s.

I really would not do one at all. I think they are vain and just draws unneeded attention.

Maybe all the site problems yesterday had something to do with this :

Heard my phone indicate a test message. Glanced down to catch a quick preview of said text.
"username BN114****"
My heart skipped a beat for a second then I said "BN" that is not my Tesla. What are the odds I have another online account that would be so close?

The gods were playing with me on this day.

Thinking out loud but with all the LR made already, wouldn't they just deliver those as well? New production could be focused on Plaid but if they can make their stock deliverable, why would they sit on it?

I can see them pushing new production (May/June production) to plaid to boost $ sales. That is why the new order page shows June for Plaid and foreverness for new LR.

Did Gabe put out just one video this week or two?

I think the Tesla web site team just likes to do "testing in production". These random web site account page breakdowns seem to occur every several weeks. Yesterday was an especially bad one.

I mean come on, you can make a car that can drive itself, but you can't figure out how to build a staging area for testing web site changes before rolling them to production?

The referral area is indeed gone from my main account page now.

Looking at the recent flyovers, I still chose the blue, but that red does look sharp (I will deny it if you tell @Tigers that I said that).

Also, does it appear that there are very few Plaids and most are LR (going strictly by no spoiler).

I think they did 2 this week now.

Looks like they are giving the option of carbon fiber or wood trim on the plaid now on the configurator.

Same here. If I had a dollar for every time I heard a complaint story about someone on the road that started with "ya know that car that has the XYZYZ vanity plate...?" It is like you are wearing a sign.

That said, I have a great idea for anyone who is looking for vanity plate options...how about OFFOIL?

I wish they gave the option for carbon fiber in the LR.

I get all badging removed when PPF work is done… just a blacked out T logo on front and back… nothing else

For your PPF, do you do full car or partial? Never done it before, but thinking about it for this car.

MSM, LR, 1142, June 1 - June 30

2nd flyover video this week was released yesterday and will be available today to general public on youtube

I wish I could still pull off the red . When @Tigers gets to his 30s, he might wrap his car a different color ..
