LOLso when others have said "the wait is the hardest part" i though... nah saving for more than a year was hard. well turns out i was wrong, for most of january i just watched the time pass by without any care. but now that we are in the second day of febuary i am really really longing for the day i at least see "your model s is being built..."
LOL. Great story. Thanks for the laugh.From my past experience ordering cars (not specifically Teslas), I can tell you that the closer the car gets to you, the harder the wait is. Once it's through production and on the ship/truck, it's even more excruciating. And when it's at the store but not through dealer prep, don't expect to sleep at night.
The last time I ordered a car, it arrived at the dealer late one afternoon and I was flying out of town very early the next morning. I stopped by just to take a look at it (pre-dealer prep) and take a few pictures, but then had to spend the whole trip thinking about the fact that the car (on which I'd placed a deposit eight months earlier) was sitting there waiting to be picked up. Fortunately for me, when I finally got home my wife drove me straight from the airport to the dealership.
Very jealous. I confirmed 12/22 and went into production 2/3. Unfortunately my delivery date is: . My DS had no further information when I spoke to him on Friday -- same delivery estimate now as when I ordered (late Feb/March). Hard to believe they can't/won't give a tighter window now that it's in production.I am also scheduled for delivery Feb 13-20th in Eden Prairie, MN. I confirmed the first week of Jan for a Model S 70D. Now the longest short wait ever....
Based on what I have read (here in this thread & other threads), call the toll free number & give them your info & see what they say. Maybe it's just the excitement of waiting but the communication between Fremont & the outside world is not very good.
Customer communication is a long-standing Tesla problem. Your interactions can vary dramatically depending on which individual you deal with within Tesla, and also with their workload.
I haven't paid much attention in a long time to the order delivery status issues, but feel as if that has continued to be a bit flaky. One personal example: when I ordered my vehicle back in July, 2013, as it neared shipment the status changed from "in production" BACK to "sourcing parts". It looked as Tesla was completely starting over on building my car! Fortunately, as an avid TMC.com reader, I already knew that the status changing back to "sourcing parts" REALLY meant that the car had exited manufacturing and soon would be shipped.

I placed my order a week ago (12/31) and just confirmed this evening. Up until my confirmation time it was saying "late February", but just after I confirmed, it switched to "March/Early April" I assume it's not really, but feels like a bait and switch...
On the other hand, I got my VIN less than an hour after confirming. Is that usual, and does it mean anything about the status of the order?
My status was just updated to In transit this morning
My delivery date changed from Late February - March to February 25th - March 10th. I've gotta get moving on that NEMA 14-50 installation.
My birthday is March 2nd, hoping it comes before then!
