I don't understand what's going on other than someone's suggestion that white is on some kind of backorder. We're seeing all these VIN"s being assigned for orders well after others. But the theme of black interior does seem to be true so far as the only kind they are delivering right now so far. With my luck I'll get a vin and delivery date while I'm on vacation
A friend of my dog’s cousin told me they overheard this conversation in Fremont, which I think explains everything:
Elon: “EoQ push!!! How we doing with the [production] line?”
Jake (not from State Farm): “Paint is taking a while boss, multi coat ya know, we do it multiple times on these ones and we do it once on the others.”
Elon: “Make the calipers black! Does that fix it?”
Jake: “Uhh…no, what? The whole car, we can’t multi coat paint it.”
Elon: “No one buys Red and White anyway, people are INSIDE the vehicle Jake, can they even see what color it is?”
Jake: “We have the UI screen show a mock-up inside the vehicle, I think”
Elon: “We’ll get rid of that, no one uses it based on data, one week max, but definitely within two weeks plaid speed.”
Jake: “Yes…of course, so no whites and reds, okay? And, I saw the website still shows June but we’re running three shifts and already behind, so…”
Elon: “EoQ push!!! The limbic resonance…mmmm…”
