I was granted access to the R1S Shop only last week. There were several offerings each day but as of this morning, this is what's displayed:

My understanding is that what's in the Shop is different depending on your location, so what I or you see offered (or not) may not be what someone elsewhere sees.

Thanks for responding. Didn't know it was location depended, but I guess that makes sense. I had figured they were all sitting at the plant, but they must be at different service centers.

I have questions I'm hoping some of you can answer. I'm a pre-March 1 R1S reservation; actually made it under the wire by just 26 hours.

At present, I have a January - June 2024 delivery window, so still a ways out from delivery even if my window improves with updates.

At such time, if any, that I'm given access to the R1S Shop, and if I find a unit there that I'd like to take, here are my questions:

  1. Will I pay the post-March 1 higher price or will I still be able to take advantage of the old price point?
  2. Regarding the tax credit, will this still count against my pre-August 2022 sales contract?
Thanks to any of you who know the answers and have the time to share your knowledge.

My understanding is the price is locked by your order date. So if you have pre-increase pricing then the shop shows that pricing model.

As far as the tax situation, I am assuming that it will be the same for either. When you signed the agreement in August there was no Vin number attached.

I've only had access for a week but I'm seeing a recurring pattern in the R1S Shop.

First thing in the morning, the Shop usually has the message "We're all out for now." A check later in the day will typically have a few cars listed, and it looks like those then get scooped up pretty quickly. Since the R1 Shop varies by location, this is a comment that applies to the NE/Mid-Atlantic area only. And of course, there's no way to tell if the buyers snapping up those vehicles are long-time R1S reservation holders or more recent folks given access to the Shop. Still interesting though, and I wonder if folks in other areas are seeing the same kind of pattern. If they are, can we then conclude that the R1S is selling like hotcakes?

I live 5-10 miles from the plant. Check just about every hour. So far nothing. Granted I have only had access for 36 hours. So I know I have to just be patience.

For the second day running, the R1S Shop has had the banner "We're All Out For Now." What's offered in the Shop varies by region, so this may not be the case elsewhere.
Same for me. Did you lose your delivery date estimate when you got shop access? My estimated date changed to "processing estimate" when I got access.

I did not however, I'm not optimistic that it is a reliable estimate (Jul - Sep 2023). Given my color/interior combination (RC & OC/Dark) along with being grandfathered in at the pre-March pricing, and adding Rivian's now legendary lack of accuracy with estimates into the mix, makes me suspect that my wait will be longer. Happy to be proved wrong though.
