Model S Reservation Tally

[Discoducky]

I think it looks awesome.

I do as well, in fact, just like exotic sports cars, the design aesthetics of MSP make loud or unusual colors look great.

Wouldn't have been my first choice, but I'm starting to find that this car seems to look good in just about any color. Please no beige however.

So good. Never would have thought of the color and it is awesome. Brilliant. Enjoy that car while the rest of us are thrilled for and living vicariously thru you.

A friend of mine just reserved 11,874 on 9/9.

Thanks for the update.

What would be expected delivery date with an order placed today? With the 11,874 just reserved above, when approximately would the delivery be? I'm trying coordinate timing when I turn my current car in for lease next year. Thanks!

Just a guess but I'd say around May next year. Welcome. When you reserve, Tesla will give you an estimated delivery date.

That seems to be a pretty good guess, I'm 10,729 and was told April.

 

[kcveins]

I was told April-May and I am #10,048

Looks like anyone <P6000 will get a car THIS YEAR !

Who is maintaining the "tallies" in this thread? It's titled such that it is reservations *and* deliveries, but I don't see a delivery tally.

P 12052: booked September 16 2012 by a friend of mine. Looks like around 22 cars/day based on the count on Sep 9

For US cars yes. European reservations are about 4-5 cars/day now but will probably rise when EU pricing and specs are announced. Currently the rate is at least 10,000 reservations/year total.

That would be me. I'll link the Tally to the "delivery update" thread. The Delivery Update thread was created before I could update this thread.

Do you want the thread title to just say

Model S Reservation Tally

then?

Yes, please. The Deliveries Update is self explanatory. Thanks.

Done.

 

[aviators99]

I do think it would be nice to have a *tally* of deliveries.

It's at the beginning of the delivery thread here.

If you want to update the tally, I just cancelled my Model S reservation (#8661) :crying:

After running the numbers again and again, the service fee pushed this car just a little bit out of my price range. I was already reaching to buy even the 40 kWh Model S, and the fee, combined with the fact that I drive 20,000 miles a year, and the closest service center being built is just out of battery range for the 40 from my house (mandating that I also pay for ranger service), the total cost of ownership is simply a bigger reach than I can afford. I guess the dream of owning a Model S is dead for me :crying:

I am currently weighing options of either trying to make my 10 year old Pontiac last another 3 years so that I can get in line for Gen III, leasing something for 3 years so I can get in line for Gen III, or simply giving up on my dream of owning a Tesla all together.

Don't worry, I will still hang out in the TMC forum (you all are not getting rid of me that easy)

Sorry to hear that Rifleman! Hopefully you can drive something cheaply for the next few years until you can get a nicely loaded Gen III.
