With Corona Virus regulations cutting Tesla staffing to 25% of normal, there is no way to estimate your time of delivery.

Best to contact sales office and see what they may have in inventory to get you one quicker.

If virus restrictions continue, there might soon be a shortage from most all the manufacturers, who have also closed their assembly plants.

I'm guessing since they've got non-essentials working from home, that's where all this sudden opening the records for registration, delivery and payment information collection is coming from.

I have Tesla solar and a few powerwalls- I pre-ordered a performance (highest margin) model 2 weeks ago and took delivery today.
The key things to note are the highest cost model, existing customer (my M3 was in the 5ks), Solar/Powerwall, and I still lucked out as someone couldn't do the financing for the exact model I was looking for in Colorado.... look to the total investment and a bit of luck and you can get an idea of your spot in the queue

I doubt combining products or prior customer has anything to do with when your order drops these days. Tesla is a full on car company and doesn’t have time to give the VIP treatment outside the internal favorites. It’s coming down to timing and location of where they want deliveries to go.

Enjoy your solar and power walls along with both cars! Hopefully you last through this mess to enjoy it all!!!

Great point across products, it doesn't matter- I think they are sticking to a performance version and get the best press and happy customers out of the gate (some of their best press)

Plus higher revenues for Q1 earnings, although selling the white interior with 3rd row seat would boost that further. I'm guessing they didn't go that route because they had higher preorders for the black interior / no 3rd row and it was easier to just build those first then changeover the line to the other configurations.

I ordered 2 weeks ago, paid $100, and my delivery date is confirmed (supposedly) next week. There was a guy on reddit who ordered it day 1, paid $2500 AND lives near the freemont factory and still has no delivery date. crazy

Put in my order today.

I'm good with it taking a few months for the factory to hopefully open back up and production to resume.

White/White Performance with PUP

Does that person have a 3rd row seat option?

I should have mine late Tuesday I'll post some pics if there isn't any by then.

White Performance / White interior performance upgrade. No FSD.

I called Tesla and they said it was the only one of my spec delivered to Tampa and the guy who ordered it cancelled before delivery. So I fell right into his queue.
Please post video and lots of pics when you get it!
