To give you and Idea of what I went through, I placed my order back in 2016 with the 1000.00 deposit and got inline. I was like 278,000 order. I predicted a 2019 delivery because I knew how this version model 3 was going to be. Well I had to wait even longer because Elon releases only the LR model first, then the MR, and finally the Plus version. I would get calls to upsale me into the MR one and I told them no, waiting for the 35k model. Others around me were going out and just purchasing them off the lot while Instill waited. My order went through to go ahead and start the design and place the 2500.00 deposit to continue the build. Finally a sales rep from Fremont called me, you know the computer generated a delivery date right, well it’s not going to happen. Your Standard Range 35k Model is still out 3 to 4 weeks... but he had a Black and a Blue Plus on the lot in San Diego where I live, told him that’s all good but I have been waiting for a red one. He put me on hold and found a Plus version in Costa Mesa and had it delivered to San Diego a week later. He had married me up with that new Vin number and finally I got one for 37k, at that time the price of the Plus went up 3% but he waived that and kept it to the original price of 37k. That’s my long winded story.. I’m sure many waited forever as I did.
