maybe we get some sort of bonus in the cars which are close to 3 years old.
Oh let's not kid ourselves here. :/

Two years old and still 10 years better than the competition.maybe we get some sort of bonus in the cars which are close to 3 years old.

Has imminently passed?Spoke to Tesla this morning, confirmed existing owners will still get priority and that configurator is opening "imminently", but no specifics.
Imminently is usually Sunday night.Has imminently passed?
I suspect "Imminently" is a bit of a rolling deadline, that will happen when it happens with no specific commitment about the actual time.Imminently is usually Sunday night.
Honestly, I used to see Elon time as a bit of a laugh. Definitely a real thing, but hilarious. Not anymore. I'm completely over it. This waiting thing is horrendous.I suspect "Imminently" is a bit of a rolling deadline, that will happen when it happens with no specific commitment about the actual time.
That’s not entirely true, Tesla have made some hardware changes since the first Model 3s were made, so it’s not strictly speaking a 3 year old car although externally the appearance is virtually identical. My faulty memory says they’ve made design changes to the boot seal, glass roof, headlights and undercarriage tray among others, as well as added an option for a tow hitch. And of course lots of software updates.maybe we get some sort of bonus in the cars which are close to 3 years old. Oh let's not kid ourselves here. :/
The S has approx 20 hardware changes per week - I expect the 3 would be similar.That’s not entirely true, Tesla have made some hardware changes since the first Model 3s were made, so it’s not strictly speaking a 3 year old car although externally the appearance is virtually identical.

Also HW3.0, small adjustments to how the trunk funnels water away when in the wet.I recall the Model 3 has the rear seats bench height raised too (by several cm).
Found some more on reddit:
- headliner change from Alcantara to cloth
- revised springs
- front seating stitch pattern
- trunk ceiling has plastic finish added (rather than bare metal)
- diagnostic port connector change
There was also talk of a screen protector being added, did that happen?

Are there any maths wiz’s who can number crunch how long each of the Elon words takes? Like when he says right around the corner it’s 2 months, then shortly it’s 3 weeks until he then says imminently, and then it’s a week until he says almost there?
No-one can decipher "Elon Time"
We’ve gone from shortly after the UK to imminently now. Are there any maths wiz’s who can number crunch how long each of the Elon words takes? Like when he says right around the corner it’s 2 months, then shortly it’s 3 weeks until he then says imminently, and then it’s a week until he says almost there?
But which Sunday night?Imminently is usually Sunday night.
If that’s true, that would be horrendous for their supply chain, warehousing, production and capital efficiency and would materially impact their ability to become sustainably profitable.The S has approx 20 hardware changes per week - I expect the 3 would be similar.

To be fair he’s probably no worse than any other car CEO, it’s just that no one could care less if the 2019 Corolla is a few months later than expected.Honestly, I used to see Elon time as a bit of a laugh.
