Looking a bit better now! Just got it back from [Evolution Autosports](https://evolutionautosports.com/) after installing N2itive rear toe arms and Macsboot rear camber arms. Finally at the end of the long post-auction reconditioning punchlist.

If I order a Tesla MY, is it possible to lock the price in but delay the delivery by a month or two? I do not want the delivery until after July (in August),

Why would you want to lock in price as they are rapidly cutting prices? It’s way more likely the price would be lower in July rather than higher

Not everyone Ubers because they’re in need of money.

Personally, I don’t like randos in my cars but to each their own.

They’ve historically honored the lower price if it’s cut after ordering.

So yeah locking in a price is a way to protect yourself from any increases and also benefit from any cuts.

You can reject the first delivery attempt Tesla makes. The best way to stretch this out is to just not reply to them. If you reject the second delivery, your order will be cancelled and you will loose $250. Hard to say how much time you can create within those limits. In the past, you could request the order to be put on hold, but those days are gone.

Problem is you don’t know the time between each car. You literally could reject one VIN one day then be assigned a new VIN the next day. In the past it used to be several weeks between VINs but I imagine it being less time now that inventory levels are building up.

I’m in California so deposits are refundable.

I guess I’ll just wait until mid June to order one.

Sat in the back of a base MY and thought it was a bit more noisy and bumpy compared to my etron. Does anyone have experience with both base MY and MYP and know if the larger rim helps with the bumpyness? or are they all like like? Looking to find a replacement for the etron.

Because it is significantly noisier and bumpier than an etron… Larger rims will make it worse.

I’ve rejected a VIN three times now from an August 2022 order.

They finally sent a “this is your last hold” e-mail after the last one. I thought it was three strikes and your out but it’s apparently four lol.

I just got assigned my last VIN on a base white MYP. I’m on the fence about taking delivery. I wouldn’t mind trying the MYP for a bit but I think resale is still very poor and may fall further.

Lyriq or BMW iX.

You won’t be happy with a Model Y coming from an e-tron. Maybe a BMW i4 if you don’t mind a liftback sedan.

It’s not a deposit

Are you sure California law actually covers you here?

All but sure this is non refundable even in CA. It’s not a “deposit” it’s an “order fee” or whatever

From what I understand, the new MYAWD is manufactured in Austin with a smart-pack battery 4680. This model added a lot more carpet in the car and the build is a bit different so the noise is considerably reduced. Obviously, there is no official word on it but the assumption is the handling got a bit better too. Obviously, the range with this battery is a bit low, which should get better as the battery gets more efficient.

I think they need to open up transferable FSD (if you bought it, it stays with the account not just the monthly plan) and consider allowing us legacy car owners a pass on transferring our FUSC toward a new purchase.

I’d at least consider it then.
