Delaying delivery after VIN assignment

[CyberMarsrover]

If I get a VIN assigned soon how long would I be able to delay delivery without losing my place in line? I want to hear from more non-tesla employees before pulling the trigger.

I highly, highly doubt you will be able to delay delivery for too long. Maybe a day. They aren’t going to keep pestering you and checking on you. Then most likely they’ll skip over you and not assign another VIN for months. It sucks but that’s the blessing and a curse at this stage with the CT.

I’m okay with waiting a few months as long as my order doesn’t get cancelled.

If you get a VIN assigned, that means you made an order. If you don't take it, you will get cancelled.
If you don't you are ready, the don't order it and you won't get a VIN assigned.

If you get to the VIN stage it means you put an order in. At that point your only option is to take it or cancel it.


Some real world #s have come in from non-employees, link to that thread is below.

The TLDR is.
AWD CT Costs $113k out the door (may be more depending on your state taxes etc)
AWD CT has about 208 miles of range (AWD with AS Tires)
AWD CT takes about 1-2 hours to charge 10-80% (v2-v3 supercharger)

If you ordered a cyberbeast it will likely be a few months before delivery, maybe even late 2024 / early 2025

At this point, these things are a hot commodity. If this is anything like the Model 3 launch, they will tell you your VIN and a delivery date and hope that you are ready to go.
I will be out of the country for a week in late June. Hoping it doesn't happen that I get a VIN while in MX. Because if I'm not back withing a day or so of my proposed delivery date, they will surely give someone else in my area a call, and that person will undoubtedly jump at the chance to move forward a few weeks. Then I will be at the mercy of when they happen to ship another truck with my configuration to my delivery center, and they deign to give me another shot.

I have no idea where you are making these numbers up from.

Oh yeah, there were a number of people upset about being out of town, a number in Europe. It was maybe 10 days max and you'd lose it.

Wow, making up a LOT of stuff today!

You will need to have your ducks in a row, but I am sure they will give you a reasonable amount of time to secure your financing if you're not using Tesla finance. My guess is 3 to 4 business days before you lose it to the next person in line.

There are indications that if you don't have the financing marked as complete, they won't even assign a VIN.
Think of it this way, you are in the checkout line at the grocery and there's a hundred thousand people in front of you.
The cashier is told that they must clear the line before they can go home.

Then someone decides to write a check and hasn't filled anything out after standing in the line for 2 hours. Unanimous vote that they get thrown to the end of the line.

On the Model 3 pre order they allowed me about a week I think.

And when they were in the mass deliveries, one issue was they couldn't fit all the vehicles on the lot. They didn't have a place to park something for a week. While they have more delivery centers now, they still don't have much extra space.

I had 2 days in Dec 2017 on the 3 or it was passed. Marina Del Ray.
