What were your specs? I confirmed mine on 11/22 (9am PST) and got VIN same day (2 or 3pm PST). I am still in queue...

No, what I said wasn't "untrue." My original post on this topic noted that there are exceptions to the strict regional batching that occurs (which, again, is not a theory - as an investor I study this stuff carefully). Here's three off the top of my head:Untrue. Mrvtjh in IL is taking delivery on the 9th, ordered on 10/22. Phazor in FL is taking delivery on the 14th, ordered on Nov 13th.
I ordered on 10/7 and my car is supposed to still be in production on the 14th.
Also, for some of us told that we'd have our cars by November, we had scheduled trips for the end of the year. I'm out starting the 23rd of Dec. If they don't have it to me by then, well, no revenue for them this year. Seemed like no big issue when that was 11 weeks away from my order and I was quoted 6.
To me, all of this would have been solved by them saying "end of quarter" instead of "6 weeks". Just tell everyone that there is no ryhme or reason except the quarter, and if you live on the west coast, it will be EOQ. Set that expectation right up front. But of course, why do that because once someone goes 7 days, they're stuck, so you might as well lie to them as if their order date matters, so they will lock in as early as possible thinking that will get them a car earlier. This is a very unusual customer transaction where ordering earlier doesn't even start to define when you will get your product.
SU-WEET! You are one happy papa about now. Congrats.Just got my buddy off the truck
Congrats fellow PAer!!!! What's funny is I got the email on 12/2 and my estimated delivery was Dec 25 to Jan 8. This variance of information is what is driving everyone crazy!! They must just know that my truck driver is a slower driver than yours.....yeah......that's it!!Just saw the email from Tesla that came in around 1:14AM... Your Tesla is complete.
Estimated delivery December 24, 2016 to January 07, 2017.
I'm hoping for 23 or 24.
Im super pumped.
Unequal treatment like the number of supercharger deployed in state, the sequencing west to east for Model III, the option for factory pickup, etc., etc. etc. Californians complaining about treatment by Tesla rings a little hollow to the rest of us in the hinterlands and even more hollow to Europeans, Asians and RHD countries.The explanations for Bay Area residents having to wait longer do not make this right. I've put a down payment, and have been locked into a configuration for a very long time, during which I cannot change on thing without a $600 fee. When Tesla breaks its promise on a delivery while simultaneously fulfilling orders that are a month and half newer than yours, it demonstrates unequal treatment of its costumers. At many levels, this isn't fair, from using the term queue (implying a line where people wait their turn) to its extended use of my downpayment (free money) while giving me in return fewer options to change my configuration. This is not the experience I was expecting.
The DS seems to me a useless prop, some sort of innocuous succor with no real bearing on anything. For all I know, my DS could be a bot.
To those who say it still will be a great car even if it come a month late... No, it won't be because I won't be buying it. I have $25,000 in tax savings to lose if this car isn't delivered in December, and already the current delay has ruined my family Christmas plans. And for what? To look good on paper for Q4? Tesla first genuflects and pays obeisance to Wall Street, then it seems to worry about its fairness to costumers as an after thought.

It is baffling that they didn't reach out to you. They need to excise post-order support staff off of their sales team, and reconfigure it based on a hospitality model. Hiring a Burberry exec to oversee the DS program is bananas.It's all about communication. You know the Model III will be west coast first, and where the superchargers are coming because Tesla publishes that info. You get to make an informed decision on your purchase.
For many people frustrated here, Tesla stated delivery in a timeframe (6 weeks in my case). They are now almost double that, and I am seeing people that ordered much after me get their cars before mine has even started. This is lack of information. If we'd been told our order date didn't matter and they would cram all west coast orders in the EOY. maybe I would have waited until late Nov to order.
@bushburner How do those white seats feel? That is what I have coming but have yet to actually touch one.Just got my buddy off the truck

Your car is in production queue, next step will be 'In production', which is likely to happen in January or February.I live in Europe and my car just entered Production queue. My VIN number says December 2016 production when decoding it.
I thought only cars for US was being made in December?
Hoping it would be produced in January giving me a bigger chance of getting the upgrade to 100D option
passenger side door and rear quarter panel trim is misaligned. Everything else looks fine. Haven't had a chance to drive it yet. I have been working so haven't had a chance to play with it yet. My wife is disappointed with the misalignment, but I guess from reading this forum, I knew I might get this problem. I will bring it up to the service ranger to realign it for us when we talk to him.Awesome!!! How is your buddy's build quality and does all of his extremities function properly?
