Some with an advisor who happened to find me a MY Pre AWD with the dark headliner and 16" screen. I didn't think that would come out for another month. I got low balled on my Accord Hybrid trade in offer, was expected to so I sold my car to Carvana (same day quote and pickup). Can't wait to get in this beauty!! 😍

This is funny, my date is the same but my time is 6:00pm, LOL!

Awesome! I tried to get a later time but that's the latest they do over there. It's cool though since I'll have some sunlight to do the check for fit and finish issues.

When did you order and where are you located?

Gito84 2026-02-13 19:13

Ordered a couple of days ago in NJ. Can't wait! Already ordered an ssd for Sentry mode.

Putrid-Box4866 2026-02-13 20:08

The heck, I ordered before you and I don’t get any updates. Ok thanks for the suggestion on ssd, what did you get?

tmac9134 2026-02-13 21:25

Performance? What is a model y pre

Gito84 2026-02-13 21:38

Yeah! Got lucky as the advisor found one in transit. I got the SanDisk 2TB Extreme PRO Portable SSD. Should be reliable for years, and 2 TB should be more than enough to save any significant events.

Gito84 2026-02-13 21:39

Premium AWD. I'm new to the lingo myself. I think Performance is MYP.

tmac9134 2026-02-13 21:40

Oh yeah. Back in my day I bought a model y. Not a premium. Car is 15 months old

Congrats - Do you mind sharing how much they lowballed you on the trade in offer relative the Carvana? I am anxious about them doing the same to me. The amount they quoted on the initial trade in offer seemed reasonable but I know that is not the final offer and I wonder how much lower they are going to try go and how pressured I will feel to accept on the spot etc.

Gito84 2026-02-13 22:31

I saw on YouTube that they are notorious for giving lower offers. I was recently involved in a collision with my old car. I disclosed this when getting my initial quote on both Tesla and Carvana. Tesla initially offered $300 more than Carvana did. After I submitted photos to Tesla, they then lowered the offer by $3k. Carvana kept their offer as is and deducted $90 for them to come pick it up.

Thanks - appreciate it

Awesome 😎. You will love it!

Congrats, my app says "ETA for delivery" when I ordered it, I thought inventory meant it was at the dealership not about to enter production... it has been a long 2 weeks

Gito84 2026-02-15 20:28

Yeah! And they just dropped a new APR promo so I may have to cancel and reorder to get that promotion. Literally cuts my interest in half if I get it.

Subpar_name 2026-02-15 21:48

I got the free paint promo when selecting one from inventory so reordering would cost me.

Gito84 2026-02-16 05:36

How are you looking it? How many visits if any to the service center? Any delivery day fit and finish or mechanical issues?

Gito84 2026-02-16 05:38

I hear you. I think I may have jumped the gun and messed up the financing by trying to to resubmit the financing. We will see later since today is delivery day.

tmac9134 2026-02-16 12:28

Pretty much perfect, had to go to service center right after delivery because they couldn’t get the windows working. That’s it. I didn’t buy fsd but get it sometimes. The interior camera fogs up but that’s a known issue.

Update: I finally got my MY (hehe) and very excited! So excited I forgot to take photos of her before the rain hit us so now it was introduced to NE winters and is filthy haha. I plan on taking her to a car wash later, then going to on our first road trip this weekend.
