Yeah I agree with you, but we're talking about a delay of two weeks, not years. That's how long it will take to make up the shortfall.

Anyway, Teslas are overpriced and of questionable quality.

The original deadline for 5k production was in December. It's more than 2 weeks.

The delay for the people who placed order are not same as delay to get to 5K target.

If I am 100,000 in queue, then car should have originally taken 20 weeks at 5000 cars per week. Now it will take 20.62 weeks at 4850 per week.

That is a delay of few days.
