PNW Delivery?
- Thread starter Siryozha
- Start date
Ughhhhhh, I’ve had that exact config on order since January 2020. I’m starting to think I should order another one just to try this...

that doesn't sound right, if home delivery is what's going to happen, it will likely be offloaded by truck in a mall parking lot (Overlake Mall) like here (phoenix10 (smartish) on Twitter) then driven by someone to your address
I still think they would serve you at their service center instead of home delivery

there was delay with car transporter so now my delivery date has changed to Monday, June 1... apparently will arrive after store hours Thursday, but Seattle-Renton is overbooked for Friday deliveries. @andrewmunsell in case your car is in same transport
My car got there but didn't pass inspection, so I have no delivery date now at all. :/

@andrewmunsell oh wow, hopefully issues are resolved soon and you pick up a car in great shape.
RE: RTA tax, kingcounty's RTA estimator tool is incorrect, at least for the Model 3. I can confirm from my window sticker (make sure you keep yours in case a dispute is needed) that my 2018 LR Model 3 is $35K MSRP, and the calculation adds up based on 35K MSRP and depreciation schedule, renewal last month was: $343
I'm confident it's also off for the Model Y, and MSRP would be 41K.

More fun! Apparently it's a minor scratch *inside* the rear tailgate on the paint, so they're sending me photos and I have the option of either taking delivery and then letting them fix later, or waiting for them to fix it. Waiting for the photo to make the call, but it's a non-functional issue and someplace I'll never be looking, and unless they really botched the repair I'm not sure why I'd reject delivery in two weeks anyways.
VIN 01496 was assigned to me back in 3/27 but I postponed my delivery. Same MSM PUP with black interior. I was told the car is in Renton delivery center.
What happens when you postpone? We got the text today and are still discussing things, may need more time. I put in for a call with Tesla but haven't received it.
My VIN is ~50 less than yours. I was at the Renton Tesla yesterday and they had a MSM PUP with black interior as their test drive unit, must've been yours. I selected mine to be delivered to the Lynnwood Tesla.
Tesla called me couple days after the MVPA showed up on my account and told me the car is ready for me. I told him I want to postpone to June. He said totally fine and asked me to call Renton center whenever I am ready.
That’s good to know. I should go check it out. I haven’t actually seen the real thing yet.
For anyone following my story, they called me *12 minutes* before my appointment to tell me they have additional things and wanted to postpone delivery. I asked whether I could see the issues, but didn't get an update from them for a while, so I went into the SC to speak to someone in person. They were fine with me taking delivery and noting the issues to be fixed, and honestly it wasn't anything big. Biggest issue that they found themselves was one scratch on the front left fender that they'll have to sand and repaint, and the front two fender trim pieces will need to be replaced because they aren't seated correctly.
I think I probably found more issues myself (typical Y stuff, back seats, slightly misaligned hatch and consequently a small corner of a taillight is roughed up a bit on the edge, couple paint nicks, etc.). Nothing seemed like it couldn't be fixed or would be dangerous to take a gamble on, so I took delivery and just have these things noted for repair.
Overall, I'm not particularly happy with the lack of communication, but very happy with the car itself. All part of the Tesla experience.

Placed my order for what will be my first Tesla this week on 5/26. Looks like I'll be on the list waiting for my black on black LR Model Y to get a vin assigned! Waiting so anxiously! 
Just receive the delivery text from Tesla. Delivery appointment set for June 3rd at the Lynnwood delivery center. Excited!

Aww, so jealous, but also hopeful! I have same exact specs, except induction wheels. Hoping to get notification of VIN & delivery in the next week since I ordered back in October. Also in Seattle area.
I checked the RTA estimator tool on the DOL website and they list the MSRP of the MY Performance as $61,000. If you Google "Model Y MSRP", you get $60,990. I'm not sure how one could make the argument that the $41K value is what the MSRP should be? Is that what's explicitly listed in the Tesla purchase docs?
The Monroney does actually list $41k base w/ a $11k LR AWD option. Based on this, I think I will contest the RTA tax amount and see what happens. Worst case, they say no and I'm paying what I already am paying now.
