Model X March 2017 Deliveries

[dmd2005]

Just spoke again with the DS and he said my production complete date should be April 3rd now. I don't mind waiting another month for a better build quality or upgrades of some sort to the vehicle. Hoping there will be fold down arm rests for 2nd row 6 seat config.

I'll just enjoy our S90D until the X arrives.

X100D. Vin 403XX. SoCal. Got updated today from [March to early-April] to [late-March to April]. Am hoping I get crammed into the End of Q1 delivery push.

My delivery timeframe moved up! It was mid-late March, changed to March 5th. Being transported now. Either a blessing or a curse (if the retooling is code word for making design and option improvements).

Agreed!

But like most technology, as some point you just have to jump in as it is always moving forward. Cheers!

Spoke with a DS at Tesla yesterday and he told me that if MT says my car is currently in production then it is most likely sitting as a shell waiting to go into paint when the factory starts back up on March 1. He said it would take two days to complete then a day of QC and alignment adjustments. Should get a delivery date for the week of March 6. MT still shows late February early March so the early March would fall right into what they have always indicated for my MX.

My assumption is that they will put the cars through paint in color priority. Therefore, of course red will be first (duh).

Not likely, they always do the reds one last.

This is the latest on my car (went into production on Feb 15th)... if everything goes as planned, it's scheduled to come out of production on the 27th, maybe...

Someone here posted that his DS said the factory goes back into operation on March 1st - ScubaQ up a few posts above. If his goes into paint on March 1, usually a few days in production at that point.

I had a weird delay over the shutdown period. Started production 13 Feb but didn't ship until 24 Feb. My DS told me that the line is shut down, but there are still many going through final QC and being processed for shipment.

 

[PedanticOne]

I think my car is sitting right next to ScubaQ's, waiting for paint. So yeah, hopefully within the first 10 days of March I should get it.

MyTesla still says "Late Jan - Feb", but I think no one has bothered to update it since my DS has told me early march for some time now.

That is exactly what my status says--late Jan - Feb. I haven't heard anything yet, but now I'm thinking I won't be getting it until mid-March.

The anxiety is real! Haha.

I did see a bunch of Inventory 75D Model X pop up on ev-cpo.com last week. Vin # range 40154-40738

I saw that too. Lots of blue and gray spec'd out 75Ds. I found it odd that they added $1,200 to the price of a good number of them about a week after putting them up. Perhaps shipping costs to various places around the country?

And one 100D. It's the only one with a higher vin (40738). The rest are all 75D's and cap out at ~40235.

I'd like to think that means something good for me (my vin is 40,3xx), but unfortunately, cars aren't built in vin order. But at least I now know there's a higher-vin 100D out there, so I can't be too far behind. Maybe I should have gotten the same options as Mr. 40738.

Curiously, the 75D's comprise ~20% of all cars made from ~40150-40250. I wonder why so many ended up on ev-cpo?

I think Tesla made them for specifically for inventory. btw, I understand what you mean by ev-cpo - i.e. why so many ended up in Tesla's new inventory.

I just got the "We've started building your Tesla" email!

That's great! I'm still waiting on mine.... our cars went into production on the same day

 

[Brnz]

I thought the factory was still shut down until tomorrow. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

 

[PedanticOne]

It is, afaik. But I guess my DS got around to firing off that email. I think we'll see a bunch of activity again starting tomorrow.
