Model S "Team October"

[itrsteve]

Joining the October club.

Ordered 5/22 - Black, white interior, 19's

Insane to think this thing has ticked up $10k since ordering. To be completely honest, I wouldn't pay $90k for one of these - $80k was the sweet spot to compete with the base Taycan in my eyes (which they've also raised $2,700). Either way, excited to get it one of these days.

Same. Above $80K I’m looking at Porsche and AudiGT. Both are a bit more expensive, but they still have the $7500 rebate as well.

And I could have the Taycan *today*.

And there is a reason for that....

I wasn't aware of the tax credit. If we go into October with no delivery update I may kill this order and just go with the Taycan.

I just contacted my delivery center today and they responded back that my October date was now estimated from the factory as “mid-December”.

RN1151 white/black/19 east coast

That is NOT going to fly with me. Thinking it’s time to pull the plug now rather than continuing to wait and be disappointed.

They really botched this launch. Like really, really badly.

Yup, that would chap my hide as much as when I was shifted to F'n January (from "Sept/Oct") => immediately after putting the deposit down...

Are there some regions of the US that are particularly bad at missing their projected delivery dates, and some areas that are typically on the spot? I'm in the Seattle area, still October

Washington State: Model S Plaid/LR waiting room

I thought I would start a thread for Washingtonians who ordered, waiting or took delivery of the newly refreshed Plaid or LR MS. Different parts of the county have vastly different “waiting” times, logistical issues and allocations; hence why this thread is WA specific. I ordered a White on...

The Model S Refresh LR/Plaid RN1154xxx and up thread...

Hello everyone! :D I decided to start a new thread, one dedicated to more recent orders (at the time of this OP) for the refreshed model S ==> as the general "S" delivery thread is many thousands of pages long, and most posts are from those who ordered long ago and are frustrated by the...

7/29/21. As I said somewhere, I changed the configuration three times as I chased earlier EDD. I'm done doing that as of 8/3. This morning I was changed from January to Blank.

Blank can be good or bad - feel like it means your in a recalculation type status and often an earlier EDD is given, but yeah sometime later as well.
With a 7/29/21 date it seems you may be subject to any production line pause/slow down due to Model X and a Feb/Mar date could pop-up, or if they manage to catch up could still get bumped up earlier into Oct/Nov (if any go out then). I'm feeling that there will be 1-2 months of top potentially year end for retooling again or something...

@travwill - This is what my SA just replied, re changes to blank status...

"And the blank delivery date is neither good or bad, usually just means it is being updated." - YMMV

. So my blank from mid June is still being updated . Did an SA tell you that.

October returns!

 

[dandrum76]

Joining the club here. Ordered late May. Most basic LR White with Black, 19's because the Senate may vote in Tesla to regain the EV Tax Rebate. Car has to be under 80k, and 79,990 seemed like an Elon calculated idea. 10k on the line and it was White or Red, so white it is! Only Black interior for me, and ventilated seats were a must. Im RN1150 and Ive been blank for a month, originally October.

Was October, went blank this morning…

LR/Blue/Cream/19”/FSD/RN1153 ordered 7/18
