My sales rep sent me this yesterday: ACH, wire transfer, cashiers check/personal check are the only payment methods. FSD you can pay via credit card post delivery as one option.
Are you stating, your original order still stands as is? Its a Long Range Plus from January 8? No change to the new Long Range (refresh) model?
Me too, ordered a few days after announcement, live in SF Bay Area. Presumably MS is delayed, so X will be too. It’s ok with me, I’d rather they get it right than quick.
there’s been no changes at all, though I’ve been in contact with a rep from our local tesla store. Issue is, he has just about as much information as we all do. I just emailed him today for an update and his response was as follows: “At this time the only update we have is from the website that deliveries will take place from May to June. Since you ordered before the refresh, preferential delivery was mentioned but we’ve no specification on what that will look like yet. As I know and things develop, I will certainly keep you updated” With that update I’m less than optimistic and I’m now considering cancelling my order for a 7 seat Y
Let me rephrase the question... Did you give verbal approval to change the order and agree to pay more?
Ordered 11/18 and got upgraded to the refreshed version shortly after announcement. Advisor said order will be batch updated at end of feb. Nothing updated on account page. Advisor has been missing from text messages. Thisi is Houston, TX.
Funny - I'm now seeing estimated April delivery on my order form again. I hadn't seen this for a while. 2021 X LR 7 seater.
They say time kills all deals... Current lease expires in May, that’s part of it but savings of 40k also a factor.
They're not going to miss April deliveries when production has started. It's just typical Tesla trying to half-automate stuff that either shouldn't be automated or should be automated 100% through shuttling production line data to a user interface when a worker or conveyor scans a car as it makes its way through the line. They want to automate things like communication with a client who is about to plop down a ton of cash/commitment to pay on a car, which just flat should never be automated ever, and stuff that should be fully automated, like like matching customers to vin numbers that are being produced right now and communicating production status, is half-automated with these little tidbits you get on the website, forcing us to do ridiculuos things like reach out to the (automated and/or non-responsive) sales person for updates, or look at the HTML source code, or ask other owners/order-ers wtf is going on. When we ordered a BMW we knew what step in the process it was in as soon as the body was welded together - paint shop, final assembly, QA, transportation location, etc. It was slick (Dingolfing plant build, so it had to come all the way over here). I'm convinced this webpage's traffic would go down by more than 50% if they just implemented the same system BMW used 7 years ago.
This is the exact same situation that I'm in. Plus, we had a delivery window, so we sold our Model 3 in preparation for that, but now it has been removed and we have nothing. If this weren't Covid, we would have to get another car ASAP. As it stands, we can wait a bit, but will need the 2nd car before long. Without information about a delivery window, we are going to have to find something else, perhaps a Model Y. This has irritated my wife enough that she is thinking of short term solutions and then looking at a Rivian in a year or so.
