I am trying to get an Idea of how many lovely Red orders are out there.
Hoping this will also help me with my depressing refreshing haha.

Currently set for a Jan 22 - Feb 17 EDD | RN1148 Red with White Interior

Hopefully this can help us track how fast our rare Red color of choice is getting pumped out.
 
Here's some more porn for you.
I do find it interesting how the red changes in different lighting conditions. I know it's probably the same paint, but I did see it close to a red Y and it looked much better on my S. Though the PPF and ceramic probably help that.

My EDD is almost the same as yours (25 January - 22 February). MS LR Red/Black/21" RN1155. You have a much earlier RN than me, so I don't have high hopes mine will stay there. Hopefully yours will!

LR, red with white interior, 19s. Did opt for FSD originally and then removed it after they announced FSD subscription. Got bumped and blanked so many times with the EDD - now sitting at a March/April EDD. I guess retribution for removing FSD?
I added FSD and still got bumped around lol. It more has to do with our color choice than anything else.

There is a saying that if something seems too good to be true, then it probably is. Well, I am hoping that is not the case with my order. I currently have a 5 month old model Y Performance in the red over white, and I love this combination. So much that I decided to order a Plaid in the same colors, with the 19" wheels and no FSD. Now here is the kicker. I almost hate to say this in fear of jinxing myself. Five days ago I put in my order and today I got my VIN, with a new EDD just 2-3 weeks from now. I am almost afraid to open my emails in fear that I will see something from Tesla saying that they made a mistake in my order. Worse yet would be that they have rebuilt something that was wrecked and rebuilt and repainted that they need to move. I don't think they would do that. The VIN has a N in digit ten which I think means it will be a 2022 model year.

Then again, I don't see very many red Plaids on order out there, so who knows??? Maybe Santa (and Elon) are looking out for me.

Nah dude you’re just incredibly lucky. They probably built that thing yesterday and didn’t have an order for it to assign to

Congrats on the VIN. Yes N is 2022

Red is the it color.

Mine showed up this month. Had an April 2022 delivery date originally (Oct 1 order), then went to March 2022, then a week later went to January, then two days later went to Jan 2022 / Dec 2021. Then the next surprise was a week later the web site showed November. It arrived Nov 5 2021.

Red triple coat with cream/carbon, 19" & FSD.

When I went to get it I had just gotten a on-line glimpse of a burgundy color that I was sure I would have preferred... But once I got to see red in person I was over the moon about it. Red is the it color.
