Just so I'm clear, how are you actually opening the door with Ratgdo? Do you have an app on your phone and need to pull it out every time to open the garage?

How are folks coming from ICE cars getting used to one pedal driving? Admittedly when I test drove Teslas in the past I found it really jarring with the regen and hard to get used to. This is why I went with a non Tesla EV before, but I am switching now for autopilot/FSD and better range...

Messaging your Tesla SA before you get a VIN Messaging your Tesla SA after you get a VIN

Just FYI, I saw an inventory car that matched my exact spec yesterday thanks to @P-Lo801, but switching would trigger re-pricing the design to the current order price, and I'd lose the tax credit. So I think unless you see a SG/white car show up in inventory, don't switch to it if you want to...

I think they redirected a lot of VINs from CA to the other states (PNW, East Coast, Midwest) this week. My EDD got pushed out a full three weeks on Wednesday and I had been expecting a VIN to be imminent. I ordered 5/4 so it makes sense to prioritize orders ahead of me, but it feels like they...

It's FUD that CA orders are getting VINs sooner. Folks in other states with order dates into deeper into May are getting VINs faster than us. Our VINs here appear to be just in time with maybe a week's notice at best. We have to wait for an M3P to fall off a truck headed to the east coast and...

Those of you outside CA seem to be having a cleaner experience tracking VINs, and understanding your delivery times with at least a week or two of notice after getting a VIN. I'm literally just hoping the Fremont factory randomly craps out a car with my spec, feels generous enough to bless me...

I feel similarly, I've PPF'd a more expensive car and while it looked a lot cleaner, I'm not sure the cost was really worth it. Ceramic coat alone would have been enough for that purpose. If I had a classic car or something that is likely to become a classic like a rare Porsche 911, it would...

My car won’t be garaged, so I worry a bit about keeping the PPF clean. Any thoughts on that?

Looks like it’s already gone. Thanks for letting me know! So weird it wouldn’t let me keep the tax credit for the exact same config.

Very weird I can’t select this one without losing the tax credit, despite having the same exact specs. The earlier price won’t carry over. Seeing if my SA can work some magic.

Excited and trying to stay strong and wait for my black/black VIN! I've been debating wrapping in stealth PPF though since it looks pretty sick on some of the black Teslas, especially the MS. Not sure how it will look to wrap in stealth with the carbon fiber parts on an M3P though. Might just...

Go for it, my row also said I had a VIN when I don't. I think the VIN date is the best source of truth.

Interesting, almost the exact same thing happened to me. I wonder if they just pushed all the Bay Area deliveries back.

Bad timing. She just got the new car before the M3P was announced!

I wanted the red, but went black/black. My wife has a red SUV and she explicitly told me she did not want us to be "that couple" with matching cars!

Looks like everyone's either got a "down to the wire" end of June Q2 EDD, or a sometime in Q3 "July-August" delivery. I wonder if it's going to be a mad rush to make the Q2 delivery numbers in the next two weeks.

Good to know. I was planning to make a really big fuss if/when I get a delivery date to try and keep my VIN if I can't make it there to get the car.

Bummer. I also sold my car early because I didn’t want to mess with perfectly timing Tesla’s trade in policy, and didn’t want to make any more monthly payments or pay for insurance in between.

Our vacation plans were made long ago, well before the M3P was announced. But I have never ordered a Tesla so I didn’t realize they were so strict about delivery windows. They should give at least a 10 day window when they keep delaying their EDDs.

I am pretty sure we actually get VINs in CA much closer to actual delivery. For other states, they assign a VIN before it gets on transport, even if delivery to you is at least a week or two out. So far I know of only one random person in CA who ordered in May and got his car early. It was a...

Reading in the FB group that folks are seeing delivery delays due to another EPA hold. I bet the EPA doesn’t give this much trouble to ICE manufacturers and delay so much. Such a double standard. Unfortunate that Elon has found a way to piss off both sides of the aisle.

And I officially got pushed today. EDD went from May 29 - June 7 to June 22 - June 30. Right into my vacation plans. No M3P till I get back after July 4th. Someone else will likely get my black/black vin. So frustrating.

That thing tempts me every time I see it.

Went to another Tesla showroom near work and finally got a nice SA to pull up my order in the system. Original SA was totally useless so he tried to message the Fremont delivery center to move my delivery location there. Maybe I'll actually get some real updates then. It looks like a lot fewer...

My EDD is now May 29 to June 7. It flips the start date to the current day every day at 7am PST. It’s gonna be inside a week with no VIN by Friday. My SA does not respond to my messages in app, which makes me wonder if he still works there. As other folks mentioned, I assume there is a soft...

My EDD window still narrowing, now May 28 - June 7. Not pushed yet!

Looks like only 9 confirmed deliveries on the tracker so far. I just put in a chart for it, hopefully didn't break anything @M3PDenver. I'm guessing with the holiday weekend a lot of folks couldn't schedule their deliveries. Looks like at least 20 more have been scheduled for the next two weeks.

Doesn't look like anyone with black/black has taken delivery yet and very few have VINs. Maybe that will change this week.

Oh man, I am the same black/black config as you. My EDD getting pushed out seems more likely than getting a VIN. What Elon giveth, Elon taketh away.

Man I keep checking hourly for a VIN but nothing! My EDD window keeps shrinking daily, but thankfully not pushed out yet. Here’s what its been like the last 3 days: May 25 - June 7 May 26 - June 7 May 27 - June 7 I think maybe because of my proximity to Fremont, they will just assign me a VIN...

Same boat here in NorCal Black/Black. Do you have a VIN yet? I am still VIN-less.

Do you have a VIN? I am seeing folks with VINs that have EDDs at least a week out from me.

Can always switch to gloss. I prefer stealth on darker colors like grey and black. For brighter colors, I like gloss.

Take pictures of the white car! Still haven’t seen that one in the wild yet.

My order seems to be an outlier from everyone else. I am literally in a 2 week EDD window starting today, and yet I have no VIN. Maybe because of my location, they will just send a black/black car at the last minute and I will get a VIN and scheduled delivery window notification all at once...

No VIN yet, but my EDD just massively got pulled in this morning. Went from June 14 - June 30 to May 25 - June 7! Officially in the window now. And relieved since it’s no longer conflicting with our vacation schedules. No VIN yet, but I assume it’s imminent. I ordered later (May 4) but I am...

Wow early. I ordered May 4 and still don’t have a VIN.

I'd rather wait to get a VIN until an actual delivery happens. Feels like it's going to be very frustrating waiting for a delivery date only to get pushed around 10 times in the span of a week. I'm frustrated for the people here that have been dealing with that!

Seeing the VINs is exciting but I can't believe we're at 205 pages of posts and no one with a confirmed delivery. Sounds like the first ones will be in SoCal maybe Sunday or Monday? Anyone earlier?

I ordered on 5/4 but I am in SF Bay Area near Fremont. No VIN yet but EDD is June 14 - June 30, so either I will get pushed back or get a VIN in the next week or two.

How did you make this happen? I tried to switch mine to Fremont and they said that was impossible until I had a VIN.

Lots of VINs, hopefully we see some real deliveries and pics soon. Still crazy to me that no one has actually gotten their car yet.

I was in a similar situation. My 2021 non-Tesla EV that I just sold is about to get refreshed for 2025 with almost double the range. Just in May, the depreciation on my car dropped 10%. I sold it early to avoid being underwater on the loan. Luckily had a backup car to drive until the Tesla gets...

I’m really hoping my EDD gets pulled in because it’s right in the middle of my summer travel. Would rather see it pull forward or pushed back at this point!

Yes! A Black VIN!

People abandoned the tracker, deliveries are all over the place because they keep moving.

Sounds like no one got VINs this week. Are there folks with scheduled deliveries before this Friday?

Got it I am in Dublin as well. Did you already have a VIN? I can’t message at all from the app yet.

How did you go about this? Thinking of doing the same.
