    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    Sure there's a reason. Some people ask for it not to be washed so they can hand it off to their ppf /ceramic coat shop:

    Plasti dip is the way, you can buy it in Walmart. You just spray it on (in layers). I did this with my 2023 M3P.

    Did you ever take delivery? The sheet shows you as 5/26 delivery, bot not delivered?

    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    The more frustrating thing about that is I ordered a powerwall over a year ago and have heard f all from Tesla about it since. But I digress. This should have been an email not an in app message.

    Delivery timelines for Model 3 performance.

    Also note: I believe your cars are coming from China and not from Fremont. So US delivery timelines probably mean diddly squat.

    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    I'm scheduled for delivery on Thursday at Mt Kisco, but that's after I asked them to schedule a date for me, prior to them having a confident date of arrival. I'll reach out and see if this will affect me. Edit: I see you received your VIN we days before me, so something strange is up.

    The one that's breaking traffic's rules. In the 2 years I owned a red Model S I was never pulled over.

    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    I was waiting vary patiently (not) for a delivery date after receiving my VIN on 5/23. Someone else due to take a delivery at Mt. Kisco had managed to get a response from an SA and found out their car was due to arrive on 6/3. I finally managed to get a hold of someone in app, who told me the...

    Yer I'm getting ghosted in my app and my delivery window starts tomorrow. :(

    Just want to add and point that people losing traction on their brand new cars/wheels can also be down to brand new tires. Folks should be careful in the first 100 miles until they are scrubbed in.

    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    I would absolutely get confirmation from your SA on this, as this information conflicts with what other people have been told about how long they will hold a car for.

    They should just have it displayed on screen, there's no point it being printed out :)

    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    Thanks for this. I'm not getting any response to my questions from about where it is. My window changed to the same as you and I'm also Mt Kisco. Presume we're both part of the same shipment.

    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    That's not true. The two I go to Mt. Kisco in NY and Millford, CT do not.

    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    Don't get me started on that. I took delivery of my 2023 M3P in NY on Dec 30th and it had summer tires. It should be illegal to deliver vehicles with summer tires in the winter in most states :( The MYP comes with all-seasons.

    Did you check the vechicle details page? You don't see the VIN on that main screen.

    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    It's probably coincidence, but I was still waiting for my trade-in offer to come through, so I messaged them about it in app in the morning. Early afternoon the offer came in and I accepted it. That evening I received a VIN.

    You should definitely try properly bedding in the brakes. Lots of videos out there. Really you should do this with any motor vehicle.

    It was 10 hours after getting my VIN in the app that I received a text. Good luck not constantly refreshing the app after learning this :)

    First day, around noon EST. Edited my post. I got a VIN! It was just hidden on the vehicle details, I was expecting it on the main page. Good news for my white (interior) brothers and sisters!

    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    That was weird. Just refreshed and I got this message, followed by the prompt about Tesla vision which I had to accept. Then my EDD went from May 31st - June 28th to June 6th - June 13th. Suuuuuurreeely that's a sign from the Monkey?!?! Other east coast people with this date have a VIN. Edit...

    I picked up one Dec 30th with $4590 off it, along with the $7500 tax credit, it was a 'steal'.

    I just went through and tried at least, to fill in people's VIN dates. Please folks remember to add those when you update the sheet. Thanks!

    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    My concern about not taking delivery sooner is that the 2nd hand market for M3P is going to become saturated with people trading them in and the values will drop. I've already seen my 2023 go from $42,100 on Mar 29th to $37,700 today. That's a bitter pill to swallow.

    It's not about derailing this conversation, its about having the questions and the responses about accessories in a place people can find them. Also if you post in the relevant forum you are probably going to get a lot of responses from people who have Highlands who have already researched and...

    Why don't you guys post accessories questions in a new thread, that way they are separate from the order/delivery stuff here and easier for everyone to find. Post in here Model 3: Interior & Exterior

    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    I'm in the same situation. I know there's a few others on here with the same date that's unchanged too. My hope is that means once they release the hold we're going to see see a VIN assignment immediately. I really hope it's already been shipped to NY. I was tempted to head over to Mt Kisco and...

    I went fishing for some more info as I'm in my delivery window with no VIN. Bah (although this was expected)!

    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    That's my understanding. That's why they are reminding you and why people on here say to leave it as cash till you have a VIN and get ready to move on the credit application, unless you want multiple hard credit pulls, in which case select financing.
  36. scrapps

    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    Set it to cash and switch it once you have a VIN.

    I don't think anyone is interested besides us. I raised the topic for the TMC podcast on Sunday but the producers didn't bite.

    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    Not sure we need more discussion on this, but there is the possibility that this is an employee and they are ok delivering it to an employee without the updated firmware. In 2017 they did deliver the new 3 to employees first. Total speculation of course.

    It's a moot point. I'm pretty sure they take them most of the way by train :)

    It's already been stated here that the EPA number is used in the car software to display the range. They were waiting for that to update the software to then push to cars awaiting delivery.

    No. I have the same dates as you, but red/white and delivery in Mt Kisco, NY.

    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    Actually no, Tesla does not ship cars with the latest software. They usually on an older 'stable' build and they don't usually get updated to the latest stack till a few weeks after delivery.

    2.61s I'm also comparing to a Model S on a drag strip. I figured I'd look at 65-95 as he's already gaining speed by that point. It's a little disappointing as I measure the M3P at 2.88s and a 2022 S LR at 2.45s. I was hoping it would be a bit closer, or even quicker. Granted it's still quicker...
