got a call tonight, scheduled my delivery date - this friday!
Everyone please sit down. A Friday delivery is 4 days ahead of the provided 4 week estimate. Under promise and over deliver!

And someone on here last week had posted that 'a friend' was taking delivery today. Haven't heard anymore on that, though. All shall be revealed soon enough

The phaseout is likely to be irrelevant ... if Congress eliminates the entire Tax Credit in 2018.
It's better than that - my DS said I could've picked it up as soon as TOMORROW, but I had to defer due to my work schedule. So 3 weeks for me from order to earliest pick-up.

Wow that’s great. Are you going to host a meet up with it? I’m probably going to be in San Francisco Christmas week if anybody wants to let me take a look at there’s.

As many Model 3s are showing up now I’d bet they hit 200k in Q1

The 200,000 mark is self reported by Tesla along with a date they say it happened on. It doesn't matter what VIN is exactly the 199,999 or 200,000 or 200,001 car. The phase out after that doesn't go by quantity it goes by date.
They could easily put out more than 100,000 Model 3, S, X in the six months of full credit around the trigger.
They can then put out another batch greater than 100,000 cars that get half credit.
Then assuming the credit isn't revoked by congress there would be time for them to do over 200,000 with a quarter credit.

Did you have any contact with them prior to the call tonight? I need them to update the final MVPA before I can finish my loan stuff but I have yet to be able to track down anyone to talk to...
I read last night that it was delayed to Friday because car was not ready.
I'm calling BS on this. I'll bet there were so many Model 3's in the delivery center lot they simply lost track of it in the sea of cars...

Lol, but how? I've bought 2 EVs now, and I'm about to buy my 3rd. There's no form they hand you saying whether you qualify or not. TurboTax doesn't ask you which brand of EV you bought. If I'm not watching the news, who is telling me if my car qualifies or not?
Just call the number in your order agreement. They will hook you up with your sales advisor.
It asks but probably doesn't enforce the 200,000 limit. I'm sure it's the IRS that enforces that. They just need to see what your date of sale was and what make car you have. If you buy X car before Y date, it would be eligible for the full $7500. If bought after Y date and before Z date, it receives 50%, etc.
Perhaps Turbotax does look up the manufacturer. I know I entered my make and model when I filed. They could show a message or give instructions indicating you get $7500 before Y date or $3750 or whatever the appropriate amount is later.
