Tesla Model 3 and Model Y Waiting Room and Delivery Queries (No referral links)

Still waiting on someone to get a call. We haven't yet today but 80 calls from one person in one day is unrealistic anyway

Yeah - I think he's just being cautious at this stage till he knows what's going on

Cancelled my one like an idiot but I am happy now I didn’t give my money away

THE ALM · 31-03-2023 1:40pm

Has anyone paid in full for a sale car?

Bif · 31-03-2023 1:43pm

Cancelled my M3LR yesterday evening for a fire sale one…if it’s all true it is some PR disaster for Tesla. While hard to quantify but I imagine it will cost more than any discount they gave. They have both feet shot off after this last week. I doubt there are too many happy Tesla customers / owners around at the moment with all that has happened since January. Legacy brands 1 Tesla 0.

To be honest (and maybe a little bit selfish?) the thought crossed my mind! On reflection, I'd say it is not some master plan they've hatched 😁

eagerv · 31-03-2023 1:55pm

If they have made a mistake, and it looks likely at this stage, I think it may be cheaper for them in the long run to honour any deals done with the sale.

The little toe doesn't know what the big toe is doing... nevermind the left hand and right hand 😉

Yes, paid in full for fire sale LR.

If they use some order agreement nonsense to renege, there’s a spiteful side to me that would be tempted to order every single car in existence each quarter then pull out just before quarter end under distance selling. Perhaps even take delivery of a few (depending on how funds allowed), park them up outside the factory and then return them after 13 days.

Be a fun protest to do.

Transferred funds from a previous order yesterday, will take 72 hours according to our good friend 'Afolabi'. (I suspect he's a close relation of 'Orla' in 123.ie who gets around quite a bit also.) Still 5k shy of fully paid, I was thinking of transferring the balance this morning, but it won't make any difference to the outcome whether I have €53,000 or €250 paid against the car. That will be irrelevant to whatever final decision Tesla arrive at.

Will be interesting to see if there is any differentiation there although I suspect not

THE ALM · 31-03-2023 2:07pm

I'd imagine with an order agreement in place and the full amount paid there would be some argument to be made for a cancellation at that stage. Whatever about an error showing on pricing and only a €250 deposit being paid, full payment is surely a different matter.

El Wexican · 31-03-2023 2:09pm

If its a mistake its a pan European mistake as if you have a look on nearly all European tesla sites the same "showroom adjustments" are available all over the place. Its one impressive ongoing error if its true.

To my knowledge, when you've paid for it, it's your property, no matter where it is now, even if it's on Mars.Tesla shouldn't have the right to cancel a deal after taking your money.

If you asked 4 Tesla employees what day of the week it is, you’d get 4 different answers. One would probably tell your their favourite colour. There is zero chance they are capable of a co-ordinated plan like that unfortunately.

MojoMaker · 31-03-2023 2:19pm

There's also no chance anyone is getting a cheap Tesla days after the Q1 deliveries arrived and with a long waiting of buyers who missed the Q1 drop and could take any cancelled orders.

The concept of a fire sale during delivery week is a complete insult.

josip · 31-03-2023 2:24pm

If anyone who has VIN is webchatting with Tesla, can you ask them to ping the car and find out where it is?

Even roughly, are they in the UK or are on a boat?

onemadcat · 31-03-2023 2:31pm

Simple solution- gives us all our orders at the reduced prices €43 MYRWD €49 MYLR

Ha ha ha !!!!

This is a really interesting point. I've found multiple cars in inventory on the tesla website across different countries in Europe that are showing as 'coming soon' with a showroom discount - screenshots galore for good measure.

Are all of these cars priced incorrectly? What makes the Irish discount uniquely wrong?

sprocket123 · 31-03-2023 2:40pm

I wonder whether the "sale" cars will end up in Inventory at normal retail prices or offered to those waiting for orders, me included.

I was at son's football and was pissed off I missed the "sale" event. Total **** show that though. Would be royally pissed off if I had got one and now told to bugger off.

Gumbo · 31-03-2023 2:42pm

Has anyone received “the call” yet?

Id be treating this as hearsay until that happens

Yeah, something fishy is going on. This would be a monumental screw up for a cross European (including GB)web issue like to remain unresolved since Weds for us. Which only stopped due to there being no other cars available for sale and still ongoing in Europe (where cars are still for sale at reduced showroom price or equivalent)?

If they ring to try and cancel/adjust price then I will be bringing this up and asking what is the difference between the discounts across European marketplaces.

The conflicting information going around is insane. Was sent an image of someone saying that the Irish orders are not being cancelled but the price adjustment is being made as it was the Sterling price and it needs to be adjusted to Euro. So a 49,871euro Y from the sale is now 56,793euro.

celtic_oz · 31-03-2023 2:45pm

The discount may be removed for the RWD MY but the real complication comes from the MY LR. Once the discount is removed from the LR they also no longer get the Gov grant.

That could be a 10K adjustment and most will say no thanks I'd imagine

bf · 31-03-2023 2:45pm

Legally the contract allows them to cancel these sales, but there is fairly clear "evidence" from across Europe of price reductions which would make the "error" bit hard to justify
