It does only seem fair that you should get $2,500 back. At the very least, you are owed an explanation if they keep it all, and I can't think of any that would justify it.
Again Thank you gentlemen for the support I will let you know how this works out...... ether way

"Special Circumstances. This Agreement is subject to the two “Status of Your Deposit” paragraphs immediately above, however, if you have indicated in your order that you intend to finance the Vehicle, and are not able to obtain financing from us or another bank lender despite a bona fide, good faith effort to do so, you may cancel this contract and receive a full refund of your depositamount"
If you apply for a loan and tell the bank you are trying to get a loan but will not be able to pay it back, they won't lend you money. Tesla can either refund the money now before building the car or they could build the car, have the financing fall through then spend man hours determining how to sell it.
I am pretty sure you will get 2.5 k back. If you can 't get financing, you will get everything back . If your reason to cancel is financial , you can get entire deposit back since you can 't get financing.
Also your configuration is a very popular one and you can make money flipping it. Need to avoid double sales tax though if you can by joint titles etc. or exploring leasing it away.

At this point, I believe that continuing with the purchase would mean not being entitled to claim the tax credit, so I think joint titling would be the only way. However, that arrangement would need a lawyer and a lot of trust.
Barring that, I agree with others that unless the financing hardship rule applies, best to escalate, explain and ask for the $2.5k back.
The OP (me) just hopes that Tesla will refund $2500 of the $5000 (Order of the X) as that was the required deposit on the S
Who says Tesla is not a great company???:love:
They are keeping $2500..... fair enough I assumed I would lose that, but I got a call today saying I don't lose it, they keep it as a credit to apply to the car when I get sorted:smile:
And they are refunding me $2500:biggrin: And today things looked up so today is a fricking awesome day:biggrin::biggrin:
Don't know why I am spilling this to total; strangers but you guys seem like a nice bunch to have a beer with.................and that's important
Thanks to everyone how offered advice.
