I'm not waiting for one but I saw there were about a dozen model 3's in their Avalon holding yard yesterday, so there should be some deliveries happening soon. What colour are you waiting for?

Where exactly is the Avalon holdng yard? Took a drive yesterday and couldn't see anything from the street.

There is a walkway along the top of the stopbank - head down there about 100m

I should have a M3 MSM Black interior there. Looks like the one behind the red car. Wheels don't look like 18" aero's though unless the aero's are not installed yet?

Both aeros on the red and MSM. They add the plastic covers on as part of the delivery prep.

Hey just by the way does anyone know what power company gives free power between certain times of the night, a M3 driver told me about it but I forgot what company it was. He said that he get 3 hours of free charging every night, and the rest is pretty low as well.

Genesis give you 150 hours a year of free power to choose when you want and you get 50% off between 9pm and 7am if you own any EV

Aero hubcaps aren't installed till pre-delivery prep. Those are the aero wheels.

That's for car manufactured between 2017-2022... almost feels like your car took way longer than that, as it's hand crafted + hand painted one of it's kind

I thought that recall only applied where a previous service was done on the rear belts, in which case the method of reassembly needs to be inspected, and if required, reassemble.

Get FSD or other option to get uniqueness kick in... otherwise it's just another EV with bigger screen.

It would be lifestyle change, home on the road... children magnet... place to start enjoying scenery from drivers seat, instead of stressing about driving.

Congrats @montybhai all this will be forgotten once you have a few trips done. Enjoy! Red/Black/White combo looks amaze!

Thank you, Yes the covers are from tessories

Just wondering has the summon features been removed from the auto pilot? When I purchased the vehicle, it was shown to me as part of the auto pilot feature and was noted it would be included. Just feel like, I have been mislead.
