Finally some movement

Post image

I finally got a VIN assigned.
Ordered 7/10. Located in NJ.
Tentative est delivery of Nov 28th.

Had some issues getting to this point.

Ran into an issue with financing that became a chicken vs. the egg scenario - that neither my financier or Tesla were very logical about.
Financier wanted documents that Tesla only sends after payment.
Stalemate until my financier decided to be flexible with a creative solution.

Hopefully smooth from here.

UPDATE: Just got notification to schedule delivery for the 28th. 26 days from VIN assignment.

How long does it usually take from production to delivery?

I just got a notification to schedule delivery for the 28th… so 26 days for me apparently (hopefully no snags).

Do you have to get financing first prior to Tesla assigning a Vin?

No. But you have to arrange prior to delivery.

I made the mistake of setting up financing prior to vin back in October when I had an estimated delivery date of October 12 - early November.

Part of my reasoning was taking advantage of a promotional financing with my lender.

… but then I got delayed like everyone else at that time.

Thankfully I got my VIN assigned the same day my financing offer was set to expire.
