I wanted factory fresh and specific specs that I couldn’t find. Build date was 6/7. I got $1000 loyalty credit without asking. They’ve sent confirmation of 3 years free SC but waiting on my +3 more FSC for loyalty trade.

Good luck with that fast of a turn around. I placed my model s order on May 27th and I’m still waiting for my vin. Originally was a few week delivery window, but that window has just been pushed forward by a day everyday since June 6.
I wonder whether corporate can count as “sales” orders placed but have not yet delivered?
If not, I’m sure Tesla is working to have every order fulfilled by the end of the quarter, 6/30.
My ETA is Tuesday for vehicle supposedly in transit yesterday from California to Philadelphia.
Anyone know if corporate is permitted to count an “order” with non-refundable deposit as a “sale” for its quarterly sales report?

I doubt it. I don't see that a simple adjustment in the necessary direction would put all things in proper order, as it will just create gaps in other places.
This was an "inventory" order so I already have a VIN. It's just a matter of whether or not the produced vehicle makes it to the dealer in time. The estimated delivery is in fact next week...but don't know how accurate those estimates usually are.
That is correct. To clarify, typical manufacturers technically "sell" ("deliver") the vehicle to auto dealers. So legacy car dealers count their cars as "delivered" once it hits the dealer. (At that point, the dealer owns the car...no longer the manufacturer.)
However, Tesla does not sell to their dealers...only direct to customers. So for Tesla, a vehicle is not considered delivered until it is delivered to the actual customer.
So there is a high level of confidence that vehicles ordered within the past week should be delivered before the end of June.
Interestingly, I was able to purchase an inventory vehicle through a sales associate that was not actually within inventory, but was still in California on Tuesday, in transit to Philadelphia. It was the precise options I was pressing the sales associate to locate.
The sales associate was terrific, and I would recommend anybody looking for an inventory vehicle to speak with a sales associate, and press for the options you want. Seems the leverage right now is with the buyer.
I would say yes, Tesla will try their best to deliver to the customer by the end of June, so that it counts toward this quarter's numbers.
Whether or not vehicles can technically make whatever physical journey is required in time....we can only guess!
My delivery is also Tuesday at SC in Devon PA. Maybe our vehicles are on the same transport.

What's a dealer? I haven't heard that term since the ICE ages.
Joey, did your Tuesday delivery get continued as mine did this morning?
Current ETA is 6/29, Devon Pennsylvania

no way i can sugar coat this but it’s a very very slow process. Took about 2 months for them to agree on a number and then weeks to schedule a surrender, i got to keep the car the whole time but the more you drive it the less money you get back. I surrendered the car June 14th and they said they would send the money to US Bank (who i financed the car through) in 3 weeks so we’ll see what happens.
Joey,
FYI, my service advisor called this evening to advise my vehicle is on location in Devon and I can likely take delivery tomorrow afternoon. You might want to call your SC tomorrow morning to see if your vehicle is on location too.
