Sitting in Port with an updated delivery to dealer notice due on the 28th vs. 24th (expected). To those who are in the know, any advantage/disadvantage for picking up this calendar year vs. '24? Very excited to "join the club." Merry Christmas everyone!

Not that I'm aware of, car wise. It's a '24 model either way and your warranty starts at in service date. Taxes, etc wise, I have no idea. I buy mine as toys and have never tried to use in business or anything of the like.
Congrats though. Hohoho! Great Christmas present no matter when it lands!

I'm back on the list as well. V200 today.
Happy to be getting a .1 from all I've read so far.

Don’t get your hopes up. I have watched this process unfold far too often. There are far too many variables… One thing is certain our cars are going be delayed arriving at our dealerships and it is certainly to be expected with the holidays. Trust me when I state that we do not want this process hurried.

Edit: Note that SIEM Confucius ETA was this morning at 0900 (9am). Technically it still has not arrived because it is not berthed in port.

Seriously… Unless someone here works for the shipping line or is physically on site at port, no one here has a clue.

Not sure about the car itself but I'm going to sell some Tesla stock I have so I'll wait until 2024 to sell so I can pay the taxes in 2025 🤣

Or… post Christmas. FYI, there is a LNG tanker nearby in the offshore designated anchor area and it has been there for several hours. I suspect it is possible that they are refilling SIEM CONFUCIUS. After all, it was at sea approximately 3-4 plus days longer than it was scheduled to be.

Yes, it and a sister ship are both LNG powered and both were built in 2020. Newest RO-RO ships.
