Got my text today. Blue, white interior. Ordered 10/18, picking up 12/19 in Cincinnati, OH.

Blue, white interior, sport wheels, EAP. Interesting how many people are foregoing EAP. I would have already ordered long range RWD if they had allowed white interior as an option. I’m perfectly happy with mid range and saving the money, but EAP is definitely a priority.

How is it possible that they are so backed up? It should be an incredibly simple change for them to make and for it to be taking two weeks to a month to get to someone’s change is ridiculous.

I would definitely do RWD and get EAP. You’ll save money, and you’ll save yourself the upcharge of getting it after delivery.

You mean all of these pictures are fake?!

I think this would be really, really helpful!

I see a lot of people waiting on the final contract before they have to go to their local CU in person to get a check. Does using an online CU improve the delivery process?

Budget: probably $45k Savings: $1,000 Currently paying down credit cards that got us through school/wedding/buying a house. As soon as those are paid off, will roll that money onto husband's car payment and knock that out very quickly. Then put that amount aside for my downpayment. Shooting for...

Maybe in a big city. I live in a small city and the joke of public transportation is only good for a few miles, people who live in surrounding areas MUST drive or they aren't getting food. I lived in a decent-sized city for a while and even their bus system was too limited and too much time and...

Personally, I do NOT want a hatch. I can see how the lift back on the S can be useful after seeing it in store on reservation day but I don't need it. I don't camp, I don't haul around large appliances, I don't have dogs. We have a BMW 3 series with a normal trunk and it's actually huge and...

I am going to actually try to use mint.com and take stock of where my money is going. I reworked my budget to make more sense, and I plan on using everything I can in the next few months to pay off my credit card and get my credit score up. Then the amount that I was paying on the card will go...

As of now, even if it's just going to be a shiny hunk of glass and metal sitting there most of the time, I want it to be MY shiny hunk of glass and metal. Everyone else can get their own.. @ me in 30 years and we'll see.

That was why I brought up my last point- is the Y going to just be the hatchback version of the 3, or is it going to be a totally different type of car? Are we going to call it "sedan 3" and "hatch 3" with a totally separate Y? *shrug*

I think the most likely Part 2 reveal would contain more advanced autopilot, HUD, and more (but not all) info about specs and options. It sounds like Tesla assumed people wouldn't want to plunk down their money until they offered actual details instead of rolling out a prototype that may or may...

What's with the European obsession with hatchbacks? Genuinely curious. We have a BMW 3 series and have never been like "wish we had a hatchback." IMO true hatchbacks look disgusting and there is no aesthetic appeal. I like the way the Model S doesn't look like a hatchback. I can see how the...

I find it odd that a piece of glass is a dealbreaker. I don't like driving with our BMW's sunroof shade open sometimes, but I figure that Tesla has already addressed temperature and glare issues and that they wouldn't be selling it this way without making it work really really well.

I couldn't create an account before I went to reserve in store because it wasn't working. I created one after with the same email I reserved with, and the RN showed up this morning! Still no email.

I'm glad it's not more hatchback-like than it is, but it's right on the line for me. Hatchbacks are so gross, I wish they'd figure something out with the design to go back in the typical sedan direction. I have no problem with the nose and lack of grill. I hope the center console goes away. My...

I wish I had been able to see it, as well, there was a two-person desk and I would have had to walk around and I wasn't really given the option to do so. However he typed my address off of my driver's license so I figure at least my name (which I spelled out) and address are correct and they'll...

I tried to sign up for a my tesla account today before I went to reserve and kept getting a 503 error. Haven't gotten my email yet either but the pending charge popped up immediately. I'm truly not worried. I mean they have over a year at least to get it worked out anyway...ha

In Cincinnati, they said the line went around the building when it opened. One person was reserving ahead of me, but there have been at least five reservations after me since I've been drooling over the S.

If it's a hatchback I will be getting my money back posthaste. Barf. Even a Tesla isn't worth that.

Not to mention, IMO at least, many EVs are hideous!

Wait for it. 1995 Honda Del Sol. I got it really cheap in college, have driven it a ton, and it's super rattly and uncomfortable and old. However, I work remotely for my company so I work from home. Incidentally so does my husband. My car is a backup, he has a BMW 335i (2011, 2012?) that we...

The other day, I would have thought the numbers would be staggering. Had a conversation that made me much less sure. I am SUPER excited about the Model 3. When the news first came out about the reservation I idly thought "oh that would be amazing to get" and then over the next few days realized...

It's interesting to see what people's needs and desires are due to their location, driving styles, etc.

You know, I remember wondering about that when I was clicking around on the model S options. It didn't say specifically that the seats were heated, but there was an option to add heated rear seats. I feel like at this point, all new cars should have heated front seats anyway! My MIL bought a new...

Good thread, this has been a hot topic of discussion in our household. I won't require more than a basic battery. However, depending on what my financial situation looks like at the time I may upgrade to better my chances of getting it faster. I want supercharger access and AP. I'm iffy on...

Cincinnati store, probably showing up between noon and 1. Have to work half a day and then plan to grab lunch so I won't be hangry as I wait!

Had planned on going to the Cincinnati store to reserve on 3/31, felt like it was time for a small trip out of town anyway. Then I wasn't sure if I should go reserve it without even seeing a drawing of it due to the time of the reveal. But if the reservation fee is refundable, seems worth it. I...
