Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

- Start date
Looks like you’ve ordered a Model 3 RWDHello all,
This will be my first Tesla and very excited to be here! I ordered mine on 5/4/24, but my order number starts with RN1216….While all of you guys start with RN1215…Am I going to get my M3P next year?
Thanks for making me think about this some more.(not sarcasm)
I think the standard for insurance companies is to pay the market rate for replacing a vehicle. I think you could argue that FSD is part of the package or trim but it seems the market valuation for FSD is around 3-4k.
All that being said, if you have GAP insurance and FSD is in the loan, you could argue that insurance is covering FSD as well. If you get totaled the day after delivery, the loan would disappear.
Since you went with Red and White I'm betting you don't qualify for the Federal Tax Credit and probably aren't hurting for money though, so probably not something to really worry about! That red/white combo looks so freaking good.
Please don’t scare me like that…Haha
Does anyone have their order start with RN1216?
Interesting. Is it possible they blocked off groups of numbers for certain regions and those got filled first? That kinda makes sense if you want to spread out deliveries to make sure that the first few thousand cars get spread out evenly across the country. And then after those groups (holes) fill in, you go sequentially after that. I dunno. Just an idea. They may want sort of even coverage across the country and given the release time and other factors, it might be weighted heavily in some regions and Tesla not get the coverage it wants if you just go sequential.
Edit: The motive (for even spread) of course being to get FSD data for more areas on the M3P config, to get media and customer exposure in many different regions, etc.
Good to hear that I’m not alone.
I live in NJ…Wonder if I’m one of the last ones to get in the states…Mine still says June.
Speaking of tires, anyone going to keep the 20” wheels and just change the summer to all season tires?
yeh, please note if you changed orders from RWD/LR to M3PAnyone else's OCD kicking in and wanting to change things on the sheet?

I plan to do it eventually, but not sure when. These tires after all are custom designed for the m3p, so I'm trying to be mindful of compromising the intended driving dynamics to a minimum. I'm more likely going to switch out to aftermarket wheels first to push the rear wheels out a little more to make it more flush with the rear fenders.

I'm in NE Ohio so definitely will be getting a winter set of wheels/tires. I think I will initially see how I like the stock summer set up and what the range is like but suspect I will keep them and just swap with the winter set.
I'm wondering why, so far, I'm the only person with a "2" in the 5th numeric digit in the U.S. and I didn't even order that quickly (like an hour and 50 minutes after ordering was available). Only other order with a "2" there is in Australia. With my luck, my car will end up in Australia too. 
i figured you converted a SR or LR order to a performance... hmmmm...I'm wondering why, so far, I'm the only person with a "2" in the 5th numeric digit in the U.S. and I didn't even order that quickly (like an hour and 50 minutes after ordering was available).

Seems like they need to switch FSD purchases to a lease to own model. Would help with early total-loss cases and could even be account-based with paid upgrades that are naturally going to come with the next generation cars as people keep upgrading to the next best new ev…If you have the option to remove it, I would. The subscription is the better play because you could total your car the day after you get it and lose FSD (and the insurance company won't recognize your software purchase). Maybe my tune will change when you can tie FSD to your account, but that day will also be the day you can't buy it anymore and they won't allow you to move your FSD from your car to your account.
Do you keep FSD after a crash resulting in total
If your Tesla with FSD package crashes and results in a total, does your FSD get Transfered to the new Tesla? Watched this and it said Tesla made him pay for another FSD package... I was kind of on the fence about FSD but this seems down right scammy and terribly apathetic.teslamotorsclub.com

So it seems I am the only one (in this forum at least) that this has happened to?
