I stopped by Dublin SC this afternoon and took these pics.

I ordered 04/05 and still don't have a VIN. I asked the SA onsite for an update on my order and he couldn't give me a date (as usual).
There's probably more MYs at the back. I'm not sure if these are matched already but it looks like no one has gotten a VIN lately.
I'm just hoping one of those MSMs is my car. 🤞 🤞 🤞

Went to the Dublin SC today. LOTS of MY on the lot and about 20 more in an overflow lot about 1/2 mile away. My EDD in my account is June 14-30 but was told I had been “soft assigned” to a vehicle that was schedule to come out of the factory tomorrow. I asked “were all the cars on the lot waiting for the firmware update”? No. Waiting to be scheduled for delivery. Huh??? No straight answer anytime. But I did see a MSM, black interior and black wheels and now I am second guessing my choices (MSM, white interior, Gemini wheels). The things that happen when it takes forever to get your MY - lol.
 
I just posted this in the main waiting room thread but since most applies to CA folks, posting here too:
  • In general, they are expecting most CA deliveries to occur the second half of June. What happens is most of the cars that are made in April and May go international and east coast. Beginning of June is midwest and west (not counting California), and then last 2 weeks are typically California. He did say though that they will hold cars in almost all areas of the US till June (what we're seeing now)
  • They do get small batches of cars (like they do now) but they have no control over the config. From what I saw in Dublin, they were mostly white cars (didn't look to close when I was passing yesterday). He said those will probably be delivered in the next 1-2 weeks and priority will be the config, order date, and whether or not all of your delivery info is complete and submitted.
  • For Dublin, CA specifically, if you live within 30 miles, they will almost for sure all be home deliveries. They don't have the capacity to handle the amount of deliveries they're expecting and it's actually easier for them to do home deliveries
  • He said it super important to be ready to take delivery within 3 days of getting the text and/or phone call once you've been hard matched to a VIN. Their system of matching is automated and it will un-assign you after three days if you don't confirm delivery and have your final payment/financing in place
  • In regards to payment, if you're doing 3rd party financing and they are mailing the check to Tesla, he suggested having your loan office physically take a picture of the check and send you that and the tracking number. They can release the vehicle to you even if they haven't received your payment yet but only if you provide them with those two things. Otherwise you have to wait till Tesla receives the check and confirms final payment
  • If you're putting a down payment separately from your financing, that must be done online. You cannot bring a personal check on delivery day
  • He mentioned nothing about a firmware update and I didn't ask -- especially after learning what I said above. This really does seem par for the course for the most part.

Did he happen to clarify whether the cars currently on their lot had VINs that had already been assigned to customers?
 
Just drove by the Carlsbad SC and they have new MY's inside the SC Service Area and outside. Last week there were none. So, it looks like the similar pattern of cars being moved to SC that others have reported while they still seem to be in Containment.

Grey and Black cars seemed to be outside while White, Blue and Red where in the Service Area lined up and stacked several deep (2 or 3).

Took a shot of the headlights just in case people are curious and want to debate Old vs New.

So I've been following this forum off and on... I put my order in for a white MY LR 7 seat on Friday and my account estimates delivery May 26 to June 15. I was expecting August. Should I believe it? Or are they pushing me to the head of the line because they want to kill as many pre reserved $6k fsd customers as possible? Or sell me an AWD asap since my reservation was for RWD?

Bay Area yes. They can match very quickly and an easy end of quarter sale. Less to do with the awd rwd conversion I suspect, but this is Tesla….. they have their reasons for everything they do. I hope. ;)
