Wiki Model S Delivery Update

[aerodyne]

No VIN assigned yet, so I am pretty sure it’s not manufactured yet, otherwise why would they wait to deliver it. Anyone know anything on the above.

They might be saving an inventory '23 for you. That would explain the speed difference, or it could just be the order is not updated.

If so,I hope they run out of old stock and give you the '24 you deserve, without the UR price increase.

Seems to me if you approved the MVPA, that price is binding unless they discontinued that model or trim, like Plaid Plus. Some here are reporting a different experience.

It never hurts to visit the store regularly and build a bit of a relationship with the SA.

There are 33 NEW 2023s still in inventory. No doubt that some will be getting a 2023 if their orders match and are within range of a deliverable.

Here is I think sure fire easy way to find out if you are in purgatory. If there is 2024 in stock with same configuration you ordered in your delivery center and you don't have a VIN, you are in purgatory and likely are never getting a VIN without paying new price.

Knowing Tesla, this is probably true, especially for orders placed in 2023.

Yes, even if you placed an order in 2024. You'll get assigned a 2023, if it is in stock near you and matches your configuration.

Certainly possible, but considering these delays only seem to be impacting the Model S community, very unlikely. Even if we assume every single pending order from before price increase was for UR the total they'd make in additional revenue is not even a rounding error on their financial statements. Volume just isn't there at $2.5K/car to make sense. Especially considering if even one person like teko cancels, they lost ~25 of those upcharges. But hey crazier things have happened.

 

[aerodyne]

Maybe Tesla will do the right thing for the wrong reasons. Give a healthy discount to those last year cars and clear them out.

 

[sorka]

I'd still take a 2023 for a$10k discount.....as long as it's UR.

Then I'd order the mechanical horn wheel and airbag and swap it myself.

Or the right thing for the right reasons. I'm not sure we need to take the most uncharitable view of every decision Tesla makes.

There are only 2 remaining 2023's still listed as New in Ohio. Both are Plaids, and both are about $3,000 off current pricing (1,500 off pre Jan 14th pricing) so for me that's not enough to take a '23 but maybe for someone it is.

Yeah who knows

Yeah. 3 percent isn't enough. $5k minimum.

Woops - just checked - they're extending it to canada as of few hours ago as well!

Hi, would you happen to have a link to the Tesla website with the full details of the actual Canadian offer?

At the risk of being Captain Obvious, I just noticed a VERY quick way to determine which cars on tesla-info have the yoke.
Just look for the extra $1,000 charge for the yoke. Cars with a steering wheel are $1,000 cheaper.

Thanks for the reply. I thought the speed was just a software thing. Not sure why they would wait if they had inventory. What is the price increase, I still see the same price I paid except paint colors now have a price and it was free when I ordered.

 

[KRISH1]

I got what UR is, it’s ultra red color but you know f that is the case they can just send a note to say the price has increased and give us the option to switch to a different color or pay the price. I am go8ng to call Tesla tomorrow

 

[690MBCOMMANDO]

Aside from the one person that has a ‘24 VIN has no one else gotten theirs?

My order date was mid Jan and was moved back to 2/11-3/17 last week.

MSP, Stealth Grey, Black Int, 21” arach, yoke

Latest EDD is 2/21-2/22

Hey - i dont have the link for this. I just read here: Tesla Full Self-Driving (FSD) transfer makes a surprise return [Update]

And reached out to my SA, and they sent me a form to have it arranged.

The only recent price increase is to charge for UR and I think some other colors. If you have a MVPA is should lock in your price IMO. Some have been told differently but I think that is unfair if true.

I think this is a pretty good time to have an order in. Maybe there will be front camera and other stuff in the future, but maybe there will be price increases as well. Waiting will increase the chance of an End of Quarter delivery which historically has higher risk of defects.

All colors except stealth grey cost extra now.

My order agreement shows the original price. My MVPA shows the original price, but it still shows the '23 VIN that I was previously assigned, even though that car is sold now. OH well, we'll see.

I ordered Jan 1, but it looks like I might end up with end of Q1 rush anyway.

Still have hopium we get the first batch post-Feb 13th 'release'. Since you have an MSP order and those are getting scheduled/delivered just hoping they tag mine onto your transfer. Exact EDD dates make that at least somewhat likely.
