You don’t want yours to change.

I don't honestly care. I don't mind being early and I don't mind waiting a bit. I don't see why it would delay for no reason. AND I don't think that anyone is hoarding them. I don't even know where the bodies were built. It may only be finished at Fremont. But I think they'll ship them when they can.

Mine just got one this week. (Las Vegas)View attachment 1045718

Yoooo, I love you for posting these pics, cause this is the exact config I ordered! Looks so good. I didn't realize the white performance seats had that dark piping around the bolster areas - not sure I like it, but hoping it looks better in person.

My EDD range started today so bring on the VIN, Tesla!

I waited a week to order (5/1). I know the price went up by $1000 but didn’t know they changed the lease rates. I don’t think they publish the residual but the money factor is particularly high on my lease terms. Do you know how much the lease numbers changed from day 1? Annoyed that I didn’t order right away but just wasn’t ready to decide that fast.

I know that the monthly went up by $110 per month. They don't give a breakdown.

Got it thanks. Some of that was the price increase but obviously not all of it. Annoying.

“ohhhh I can’t because it’s not working right now…” lol guess we will see how legit

I’m hoping it’s true, as it might signal the start! Someone’s gotta be first

it’s going to be you!

I don’t know if Cleveland and Chicago are considered the same region by Tesla but would image so being 6hrs apart. My EDD did the same thing as yours today. Ordered a day after you, stealth grey/black.

It’s unlikely that it will be worth only $20k after 3 years. Getting the tax credit and not paying any interest will outweigh the benefits of the lease especially when the lease interest rate is 10%+.

If you get a loan but you qualify for the tax credit then the lease is closer to being reasonable but the loan will still work out better.

If a 2024 M3P with low miles is only worth $19k in 2027, I’ll buy a second one. FWIW, the 2020 LR I got early 2020 is still worth $25k. -15k in 4+ years. Not terrible considering I saved half that in fuel, oil, and typical maintenance.

Ordered on 4/30, Red/black, South Florida, EDD updated earlier today from June to July 26 - September 6

Good thing I didn't submit a lease application, that would have been a guaranteed additional hard credit pull when the lease quote expires and I still dotn have a car. What sucks is the estimated lease payment with taxes and fees on the day I ordered was $648. The calculator on the site is now showing $685. If this BS lease rate keeps climbing, when I finally do get assigned a VIN, I may have to cancel and donate $250 to Elon.....

There's a published list of all locations that have one. The closest to me is Malibu. I am waiting for more to show up closer so I can go see and drive it.

Where’s this secret list?!?

Where’s this secret list?!?

Call Tesla or go into any center. They can look it up. People were posting the list on the internet but that is now outdated. I check with my local centers pretty much daily.

(moderator note)

Those of you wondering what happened to the "I got a vin" post along with replies to it, the "i got a vin" post was removed because the account was found to be a sockpuppet account (secondary created account) as I suspected it was. The references to it were removed simply because they became out of place after removing the account.

@GreenHokie

I only deleted your post because it referenced a post of mine that I decided would be out of place, but to respond to your statement... "I did / nod".

On a lighter note, how many people here can recite their full order number without looking at the app?

I'm just thinking how much more fun our discussions would be if @jjrandorin had placed an order too.

Im actually very much looking forward to the posts around first vin numbers, deliveries, first drives, etc, from our members here. I am not a "youtube personality" person so I havent really dug too much into those, but I AM really looking forward to sharing in the excitement you all have and will have as you move through the process.

Probably why I "very much didnt like" trolling about it.
