I'm planning to use the app to do an ACH transfer through Plaid from a savings account. I called my bank to check that there wouldn't be any hiccup, they said no problem on their end, hope that's true. I already linked to the account through Plaid, but I don't plan to send the payment until after I've decided that I'll accept the car.

Discussion: Model Y General Waiting room for orders placed After January 2023
- Thread starter acpd
- Start date
I admire that confidence. I only convinced myself to buy it after seriously considering this question: "If this car became worthless within the next few years as early-adopter fees further evaporate and displacing technologies make it obsolete and undesirable, would I be okay with the price I paid just to drive it?" If the answer was no, I would have gone with something else.
I picked up MY LR today at Springfield NJ location and I had fantastic experience. I highly recommend Springfield NJ location.
I was able to check car inside and outside. Also able to drive a short trip before doing paperwork. First time in life car dealer did not check my patience while purchasing car. lol
Car is Austin build and 99% in good shape. Found some minor issues
1- front both headlight has gap with body panel
2 - small minor scratches on passenger side.
It’s an Austin TX build car and got cargo cover, charger adapter, front tag holder. Regular headlight (matrix light was not deal breaker for me). I think, front and rear bumper has PPF installed. No mud flap.
Good luck with your order guys !!!

what's your config and location?
i also ordered on 1/16 evening (1/17 according to tesla) with the latest EDD of 2/22 to 3/22 but still nothing
I just saw the CA rebate too. Would be pretty nice to get $13k discount + $7500 + $2000!I am in a similar situation, but not holding my breath either because it's been more than a day for me (and it sounds like even a lot longer for you) and in majority of the cases that I have read on this forum before, VIN assignment happened in a matter of hours (and not days) after EDD was reset back to default/vague one.
Who knows though, a major delivery delay at this point might not be a bad thing if HW4 is coming soon (although highly unlikely within the next month or two, despite what others are saying about upcoming Mar 1 announcement), and/or if all Model Ys still qualify for full tax credit even after March (this one I think is a good possibility because of how battery sourcing manufacturing rules in IRA apply).
Besides, Model Y now qualifies for CA rebate again~! So, you and I will get $2000 CA rebate on top of fed tax rebate. Just trying to stay positive here....
I got my VIN 16Feb at 11:25 pm EST! Yes I was checking my app every 20-30 mins all day.

Well, it will not depreciate as quickly as a new gas car over the next 5 years ...
Is there a list where people post VIN numbers they rejected? I’m curious why I have a Fremont VIN when other people with similar specs are getting Austin builds.
You sure? The used ICE vehicle market is pretty stable. Existing EV values could easily be diminished if a substantially improved battery technology were to come to market in that time. I think anyone who is counting on the current-generation EVs holding their value could be setting themselves up for disappointment. I'm looking forward to EVs continuing to become better and more affordable.
@tsnorcal... same here. On Jan 20 EDD 10-day window slipped day by day for ~25 days. Then I was inside the 10 day window by 5 days and suddenly the EDD changed to Mar-May2023 on ~Feb 12. OD is Jan 13.
Wow that’s amazing. Where can I find more info on that? I hadn’t seen anywhere mention it will be $5000
It's good to know I'm not alone. I was worried that my order was getting lower priority because I didn't complete the delivery profile immediately. Fortunately we don't need the car right away ... just that it would be nice to get the full federal tax creditI am in a similar situation, but not holding my breath either because it's been more than a day for me (and it sounds like even a lot longer for you) and in majority of the cases that I have read on this forum before, VIN assignment happened in a matter of hours (and not days) after EDD was reset back to default/vague one.

MYLR White/Black 20 inch wheel.
OD 1/20
I had a Kia EV6 on order since May 2022 with no idea when I would get a car. I hadn't considered Model Y till the price dropped due to the price difference. 1/15 I scheduled demo drive for 1/27. 1/20 decided to go to showroom and look at the car. Went home and placed the order 1/20 at 8pm CST, did the demo drive on 1/27. EDD 3/4-3/31. Got my VIN and schedule delivery on 2/14. With everything I am reading I assume my car is one that someone didn't take delivery of. I am picking up my car today.

Exactly I treat cars as depreciating thing (not asset) that I need and enjoy. My assessment was it's the best car for 53K (58k with taxes for me) currently in the market for my needs.
Would I have bought it for 65k+taxes probably no, for 75k definitely no.
