Latest "Finalize your order" date

And there will most likely be some slowdown due to reduced schedules for the holidays (last week of Dec.).

From poking around in the raw source behind https://www.teslamotors.com/mytesla there is a ton of info buried in javascript that doesn't appear to be displayable, but is certainly entertaining enough to provide rampant speculation!

Added emphasis on a few tidbits that look tantalizing:

I'd remove your account IDs

Doh!

Thanks for pointing that out, I'd cleaned up a few things when I first posted, but hadn't noticed the plethora of other ids buried in that monster list of values.

I just tried this with my account...I also have an "estimated delivery date" value of October 2012...I guess that part of it is just a generic placeholder since I'm P 9130! Good find though! Lots of interesting info!

As an aside, as this is right up my alley, wanted to note that Tesla appears to be using the open source ERP+CRM product from opentaps rather than going for one of the big fish (SAP, the big O and so on).

Very neat!

Sounds like they might have heeded my advice on bullet #3.

not me. I'm still "reserved" even though I'm SSL #88 with an ETA of 8/15.

They also use SFDC. When I was buying my Roadster my salesperson was showing me their inventory list from within salesforce. Not sure if they moved away from them or using it purely for CRM...

R#113 received email to build on Friday the 13th. Finalized online today(Performance, Dophin Grey, Black interior, Carbon Fiber, 21" Performance Wheels). Received confirmation of order and paperwork to sign within 15 mins. Executed paperwork and received confirmation of order received in 10 mins. Status on Tesla site updated to "The Tesla Factory is building your Model S Performance" immediately. Rep separately said November delivery. Pretty smooth process.

That's the same config we're going to go with except silver wheels. Also note that they dropped all the descriptors from the colors. It's just grey, blue, black, etc. Heard about it at the PA drive event and just confirmed when I went to the design studio.

Went away from the Blue (that would have gone with your Roadster), strider?!

I'd probably just send them an e-mail when it gets closer if it hasn't changed. You probably did all your paperwork via e-mail or over the phone so it's a manual process from them. Later numbers did a DocuSign thing where it's all electronic and the system updates itself. It does seem to say 'we're building your Model S' as soon as your paperwork is done even for people expecting a October delivery though so maybe not to accurate.
