    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    I am right with you, also SG/white bumped back to May 29 - June 26. I’m in the Midwest. Hopefully this is just a generic push back and we’ll get an earlier, more specific, EDD once everything gets approved and updated.

    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    Pretty annoyed. Gray on white LR order switched to performance. May 15 - May 29 May 16 - May 29 May 17 - May 29 May 29 - June 26 Tesla makes absolutely no sense. Why push back day by day as if a VIN is imminent and then push it back a whole month? Meanwhile my 2nd performance order is still...

    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    I’m sorry but as someone who has been waiting since January for a white interior, everyone needs to calm down with saying black interior is “delayed.” It hasn’t even been a month since the car was announced for gods sake.

    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    Just now saw from Reddit that there was a thread for performance orders. I was a Jan 10 white interior LR order that switched to the performance. Located in St. Louis. Seeing VINs go out is exciting but Tesla has been consistently letting me down for the past 4 months..

    Model 3 Highland (US) Waiting room

    1/10 LR Gray on white order switched to performance gray on white on 4/26. Since then EDD was stuck on July 4 - Aug 15 from the LR order, until just now switching. Cautiously optimistic? Anyone else with performance orders get their EDDs moved up?

    Model 3 Highland White interior (US) waiting room

    My 1/10 LR order finally got an updated EDD. Switched to performance on 4/26 and it just now updated. As exciting as it is, I’m ready to be hurt again by Tesla changing it to some absurd date. I really feel for the people who had their EDDs pushed to September. Absolutely insane

    Model 3 Highland White interior (US) waiting room

    Currently have two orders, one being my 1/10 LR that I switched to performance same specs, and one I placed right when performance was announced. LR->Perf still at the old LR EDD of 7/4-8/15 Perf ordered day of announcement went from June to May 14 - June 11. Makes no sense but I’ll take it...

    Model 3 Highland White interior (US) waiting room

    Changed my 1/10 LR order on April 26th to a performance, and my EDD is still sitting at the old EDD of July 4 - August 15. I truly don’t understand why it takes so long for the EDD to update when the new order shows up just fine in the app. The same company that can do self serve demo drives...

    This is the VIN for the long range order right? Or is it for the performance?

    Just kidding, it was originally May/June and now it’s just June. At least the window narrowed down.

    Model 3 Highland White interior (US) waiting room

    My M3P order EDD went from June/July to just June.. so that’s movement in the right direction. I ended up deciding I want the performance more, so I switched my LR order to a performance. It still has the old EDD so we’ll see if it gets an earlier EDD than the order I placed right when the...

    Model 3 Highland (US) Waiting room

    Marques Brownlee‘s Review of the Performance M3. Notice he mentions that the steering wheel buttons are capacitive. I would bet that Tesla has gotten so many complaints and service requests about blinker buttons sticking/not working that they went back to capacitive buttons. Also, the plates...

    Model 3 Highland White interior (US) waiting room

    lol I’m sick of waiting for Tesla to get its sh!t together. For other instances I’d feel bad about “gaming” the system like this but with these delays and lack of communication I don’t feel bad. Losing $250 is really not a big deal. And what’s sad is I could legitimately see Tesla somehow...

    Model 3 Highland White interior (US) waiting room

    Ordered a performance. Same config as my LR. I’ll see which one comes first and make a decision. It’s basically the same price just less range and bigger wheels/summer tires. I’ll cancel the other and eat the $250. Does anyone know if the performance is being made in Fremont?

    Model 3 Highland White interior (US) waiting room

    Even if these inventory models are cancelations or rejects, Tesla should immediately be trying to match early Jan orders with cars. Any other company with even the slightest bit of sense would make an effort to match early orders with anything available.

    Model 3 Highland White interior (US) waiting room

    To make it worse, I got a text saying I could take delivery of a model 3 in the next week if I’m open to other configurations. Got slightly excited, because I’d legitimately consider a black LR instead of gray, or even nova wheels instead of photon. Nope. Not a single available car was a LR. Why...

    It’s absurd that they would bother making this for inventory when they could slap photons on it and ship it to me. GIVE ME MY CAR FFS

    Model 3 Highland (US) Waiting room

    Absolutely pissed. June 21-30 just got bumped back to July 4 - August 15. With white interior VINs going out why on earth would they push back EDDs so far? Tesla is a joke.

    Model 3 Highland White interior (US) waiting room

    I’m pretty pissed off. Order date 1/10 SG/White int, 18in wheels just pushed back from June 21-30 to July 4 - August 15. It’s absolutely absurd that white interior VINs start going out and they push back an EDD this much. Even if it’s “just a glich” why the f*ck would you design a system to...

    Love seeing more VINs coming! Are most of the VINs coming for east coast people? I think that tracks what we’ve seen before where Tesla works easy to west as the quarter progresses.

    Model 3 Highland White interior (US) waiting room

    I genuinely hope VINs start rolling out en masse, but the pessimist in me is remaining skeptical. Order date of 1/10 with an EDD of June 21-30 still. It would be my luck that Tesla assign me a VIN and try to deliver my car while I’m out of the country at the end of April into 2nd week of May.

    Model 3 Highland White interior (US) waiting room

    At what point are these constant delays considered unethical business practices that should be addressed via some government intervention? If early Jan orders are being pushed back to August, why in the world should Tesla be allowed to project May/June on the website? That only furthers the...

    Model 3 Highland (US) Waiting room

    I’ve been to my local Tesla site multiple times, and I’ve called Tesla corporate multiple times as well. Each and every single one of them has said if I switch to black interior it will update to the new pricing, and I will lose the pricing that I locked in by ordering on Jan 10th. Did you...

    Model 3 Highland (US) Waiting room

    Yeah I agree this isn’t lawsuit or other compensation territory. But what should happen is “compensation” in the form of letting white interior orders switch to black interior while remaining at the price of the car when they purchased. If I switch to black, it should just take $1000 off the...

    Model 3 Highland (US) Waiting room

    Yes it is an “estimated” delivery date. Which is afforded some level of accepted tolerance and wiggle room. However, an initial “estimate” of 1-2 months for delivery being off by a factor of **at least** 3 is absurd. I don’t believe for a second that Tesla didn’t know about this delay with white...

    I was in contact with Simon Alvarez at Teslarati who was the first to write an article on the white interior delay. It’s his article that Ryan Shaw quoted when he spoke about it on his YouTube video. The more coverage the better

    Awesome that Ryan is mentioning white interior delays. If only he had known at time of recording that we’re pushed back to not May but June.

    Model 3 Highland (US) Waiting room

    Another white interior delay. Pushed back to June 21 - 30. At this point I’d be better off getting a random canadian to order one for me and it’d get here from China faster than Fremont can produce one. I’m so sick of this.

    Model 3 Highland White interior (US) waiting room

    Tesla has eroded any sense of excitement and eagerness so much so that I didn’t even check the app today, until just now only to see that I got pushed back just as most of you all have. It’s so incredibly dumb that a Jan 10th order will take 6+ months. It’s not even real leather? What could...

    Model 3 Highland White interior (US) waiting room

    *sugar*.. I feel you on the frustration. I’m really really hoping they just don’t know and the end of June is just their random guess and we all get surprised with deliveries in May. Tesla is really really spitting in the face of their customers with these delays.

    Model 3 Highland (US) Waiting room

    Try pressing the indicator button more towards the center of the wheel than the outside. I’ve found if I press the indicator towards the outside edge that it’s hit or miss if the button actually registers input. But more towards the inside edge of the button works more consistently, although...

    Model 3 Highland (US) Waiting room

    The VIN for that car is 718XXX so I don’t think that’s a sign that they are now producing white interior when people are getting VINs in the 733XXX.
  37. I

    Model 3 Highland White interior (US) waiting room

    718114 is the ending of the VIN. People on the main thread have been getting VINs in the 73XXXX so that demo model is fairly old. Given that I don’t think it’s likely that they’ve all of a sudden switched over to white interior production.

    Model 3 Highland White interior (US) waiting room

    It just doesn’t make sense that they aren’t producing hardly any when clearly they can for demo models. Surely this isn’t just based on optimizing production schedule where you’d produce a bunch of black then bunch of white. And if that demo vehicle is them starting to produce white interior why...

    Also I really hope those of you that have earlier EDDs keep your EDD range! But as someone who sat at April/May when others got pushed to May/June, I will warn you to not get your hopes up too much. Mine is now sitting at May 2 to June 6. Order date 1/10

    Anyone else see the Q1 deliveries and inventory report? Tesla was significantly below delivery target and has significantly more inventory than normal, and TSLA stock is reflecting that. It might get worse when they have the earnings report soon. It actually makes me a little less mad about...

    Another EDD delay. From April 7 - May 12 to May 2 - June 6. Located in Missouri. Despite others in this forum wanting to give Tesla the benefit of the doubt for each additional delay, I refuse. No company should treat customers like this. Delays happen, but no communication at this point is...

    Tesla is no longer even close to a startup company. I’ve also worked at a startup and a company like Tesla is so far beyond a startup in terms of capital and resources.

    For those of you switching to black interior from white, are you now paying for the updated price? Every time I talk to someone from Tesla they say that changing will give me the new higher price, effectively making it so I’m paying the same if not more for a lower costing spec. I simply refuse...

As soon as I consciously made an effort to press the buttons towards on the inner most part...

    I’m also hoping to decline the FSD demo, that is if they ever deliver white interiors. I’ve used family member’s FSD and while nice, I don’t think it’s even close to worth $12k. At least not in the state that it’s in.
