    Indent where elbow rests

    I was wiping off some dust from the driver side door and noticed this little indentation. Hard to see in a picture, but definitely feel the depression if you run your finger along it. I've realized it's right where my left elbow rests when I'm driving. Anyone else seen this? Tried a search, but...

    Time Until Contact after Edit Button Disappears?

    Just got my first email from the Home Delivery specialist today, so I guess for me, 18 days from the disappear of the edit button / told to apply for financing and first actual contact. The only thing the message really said was "I'd highly recommend you pick up at a service center, not take...

    Time Until Contact after Edit Button Disappears?

    It does seem to very quite a bit. I see a few people getting a call within a day, a few waiting 6+ weeks. Most frequent seems to be within 1 to 2 weeks. But, mine disappeared and the apply for a loan info showed up 2 1/2 weeks ago, so I was figuring I was within a month or so of delivery, but...

    Let's talk financing rates

    I'm not sure their official stance, or if it might vary by the lender they match you with. But when I filled out the online loan application, it asks for the percent you want to put down, and I wrote in "0". But when the approved financing page showed up the next day, it showed a loan amount of...

    First Drive

    I just wanted to say how cool it is to be part of the Tesla community. I'm a 3/31 line waiter, just got asked to confirm finance details on my performance order last week. Thus far, have only sat in a Model 3 during their upstate NY tour, closest sales center is 5 hours away, rarely see a Tesla...

    Let's talk financing rates

    I applied in the evening on a Thursday, and it was late afternoon (after 4) on Monday when they reached out. Definitely slower initial contact than others, but once I did hear from someone, they were very responsive (during east coast business hours).

    Let's talk financing rates

    Got it. So I know you have to go through the mechanics to actually join to get an official approval - unlike some that will let you join after approval. But I'd bet you could get request the loan terms you want lightstream to match, and even claim it's just like 80% of a more expensive S/X that...

    Let's talk financing rates

    I'd sent them a copy of the initial order agreement, so they had mine from there already. If you were actually going to close with them, youd certainly need the final version of the MVPA. If you're just trying to get approved for the rate beat, I imagine you could give them whatever number you...

    Let's talk financing rates

    Just to add my recent experience. I'm looking to finance the full 73k of my purchase price, over 72 months. The nys tax rebate and reservation deposits are basically a wash with taxes and fees for me, and not looking to spend our of pocket what I can cheaply finance. Tesla financing was 3.65...

    P3D white interior (no performance upgrade package) VIN updates

    Short of a VIN here, but did get the prompt for the credit application this morning and the "edit" button disappearing as of this morning (performance red, no + package, white seats). I know it was still there as of 8 eastern last night, so a change sometime during the night. Excited to see any...

    May AWD/Performance Orders -- VIN / Status Thread

    I know it's a small sample size, but when I looked at the spreadsheet earlier today for "P"s with VIN assignments, the few I saw noted there all had black interiors.

    Updated account summary page: did anyone not get it?

    Mine is financing through Tesla. Although when I went to bring up the page to validate the actual verbiage for that selection, it took quite a while to load, and the payment section now gives me the "We are experiencing technical issues loading your payment details. Please try again later" which...

    Updated account summary page: did anyone not get it?

    I've still got the old screen, too... Reserved in-store 3/31/16; originally invited 3/22/18, ordered AWD on 5/23/18; switched to P on 6/27 after the price drop.

    Roll Call: Who Ordered a P-AWD without Performance Upgrade?

    It's a funny question for me, as I had "fully made up my mind" and then changed it - more than once, but finally ended up with a performance upgrade and no performance package. To me, it ended up coming down to snow tires, ironically enough. We get a decent amount of snow here in upstate NY, and...

    Model 3 "Performance Brake Calipers" just red or different altogether?

    They were? Maybe my recollection was off on that one. I thought on the 5/20 announcement, there was no mention of brakes at all, much to chagrin of folks here. Then Ryan said, can't we get red calipera like all the other Ps, and got the no, then yes answer. Then later said, are they just painted...
