Wiki Model S Delivery Update

It would be nice if they had better feature lists and differentiated the LR from Plaid. Not needing the performance boost of the Plaid but I may like some of the other features. If Tesla would just list those out at the beginning, we all could make a better decision up front.

Looks like they finally stripped the chrome out of the taillights and headlights.

Chrome def there. Gawd I hate chrome!

I have to admit, after four months of looking at yokes, the full, round steering wheel looks kinda quaint.

Wait till they replace the yoke with a PS5 controller...

Now that I am looking from a computer instead of a phone I see it :/

Plaid+ order and no cold call to switch to Plaid. Not that I would switch. I'm in for the long haul.

I'm happy with my decision to go with Plaid, but I regret cancelling my plaid plus order. I should have just left it alone and canceled it later if I didn't want it.
If I do want one, my stupidity cost me $10k more and Tesla is no longer accepting plaid plus orders ugh.

LR orders should prepare to get shafted by the Plaid orders. Even "priority" deliveries of LR.

Isn't that just special

I don't regret it but the plaid+ may be so far out, $10k in savings wouldn't be worth it.

Hoping my information is incorrect - we will know soon.

I hope the handles aren't body colored on the LR. I am getting White and I think the Black handles look nice.

Yes! Tesla SA came through, my trade-in option is back.

SA says actual deliveries start June 3rd nation-wide. They aren't staggering the first batch based on location. He's been reliable with info, my 4th Tesla from him. He said they expect Vins any day now.

Is that just Plaids - or also LR's?

This, this will be the time the SA is reliable!

LOL true that! He's been a good one though ...

No planning to give it to my wife

I read that as “no plan to give to my wife”. But then again, I am better at Swedish.

That's what I get for being lazy and leaving out the comma. "No, planning to give it to my wife."

hey all, first time Tesla about-to-be owner and need advice on the color.
I have had the Blue LR on order since December, but now thinking about switching to MSM.
I like the blue, but I feel it's gonna be really tough to keep it clean. Even a little bit of dirt/mud shines on the Blue paint, while the Grey doesn't have these issues.
Am I correct? Looking for advice if my observation is correct, and how do folks here maintain their blue exteriors?

That’s odd because I don’t think anyone on here has mentioned a delivery day earlier that June 26th. Someone correct me if I’m wrong though. Mine was showing a delivery of 6/1-6/30, now jumped back to August...wtf. RN1149, plaid, Blk/Blk, 21’s, no FSD. I’m east coast though, not sure if they factored that into it....doing close to CA deliveries first and working east...???

From what my SA said, if my LR isn’t delivered in June prepare to wait until September. Apparently the reasoning is EOQ deliveries are to CA customers, since they can’t be delivered out of state before end of quarter. Then production months one and two of each quarter go out of state since they can be delivered by end of next quarter, shafting local customers. Presumably once they are caught up with the backlog that won’t be the case, but it’s doubtful that will occur before September.
