Whoopsy:

Not surprised. Every quarter Elon pushes his employees to rush out cars to try and make their 'deadline'.

Whether or not that number is sustained is waiting to be seen.

 

Correct about the production push at the end of quarter.  Musk will also extrapolate a production volume based on a so-called burst rate.   Again, sustainability of production levels is what is important to the company.  Musk attempted to move demand forward by opening the order book for all US and Canadian reservation holders in the last few days coupled with a price cut on the D and P Model 3 variants.
