at some point overnight my payment portal opened up so i submitted the full payment! i'd say that for TX folks who have been waiting for contract to finalize, you will get it within the next day or two. i still do think my theory above holds true moreso than any kind of system down situation. tesla simply wanted to deliver the most cars it possibly could by 7/31 and that meant delaying TX as the logistics for TX require a 2-3 week transportation while most other states don't incur that delay.
Jlawzy, think you get a gold star for your theory! Ali contacted me today and I made payment in full also! Tentative delivery is Wednesday Aug 15th! Anyone taking bets on how many reschedules we will suffer? Let hope NONE!
Anyone got any information to confirm that vehicle bound for Texas, North Houston SC specifically, are being shipped by rail? It would make sense since there is a UP yard that handles cars is in relatively close proximity, (NW of IAH, you can see it from the Hardy TW). Anyone that makes that drive on that section of the tollway happen to see a lot full of MOD3's?I think there is a train full of Model 3s coming to TX soon.

Appreciate and love this group.
My update as follows for which I was waiting for an MVPA to be executed and pay button to appear, I was an early reservation holder who waited in the Austin line that first day to pre-order.
Expected delivery originally Aug 14 Austin DSC.
7/21 - VIN provided/emailed by my ISA, order placed for my 3.
7/21- Awaited MVPA to be released online, approved loan through Lightstream.
8/2 - Morning , email from TESLA to pay for car.
8/2 - Afternoon - Tesla ISA Kyle called saying there is a problem and the car was already shipped and waiting for pickup at the Austin DSC. Asked me to schedule and get it picked up this Satruday 8/4. I paid online at 6:00 pm, ISA called 30 min later and scheduled delivery of the M3 on Saturday morning at 10:30 AM CST. He said await a fedex package on 8/3 and bring that with me.
Will update you guys by Saturday on my experience.
Hang in there like I was and you guys who have been waiting for MVPA to be released online should get moving.
If Tesla would just communicate there would be far fewer anxious individuals.
Likely they have so many orders for "standard" configurations there is no risk. If one falls through they just run their delivery list until they find a match. That might explain why some that reserved/configured after others get their cars earlier than would be otherwise anticipated.Talked to Dhillon at SDC Austin, he confirmed that is my car in their lot,
I asked him that i was confused about the car getting into Austin this fast, He told me Tesla M3's are now getting shipped already from Cali to Austin even though once ordered even though I didn't pay yet. That didnt' make sense to me since a customer could potentially cancel and the car is stuck in another location.

Guys, there’s a trick to get your contract done within few hours. Worked for me, twice! Basically call your delivery center and ask them to change your delivery to the same day, contracts then seen it and make it a priority. Then after contract, change delivery day to the one you had....
I had to do two contracts because i changed my loan amount (put more down) and my bank wanted the contract to show this before sending the check overnight....
I posted details of this in another thread. Let me go copy it and paste it here....
