Delivery experience was okay. Ended up getting moved around because the SC was overwhelmed. They actually ended up delivering it to my door (Tesla employee drove it to me, after being detailed at SC, not car carrier drop off). Overall, communication was not great / some bumps, but in the end...

I got this too, but don't think it means anything. I have a confirmed delivery date (and know for a fact my VIN is on-site), and mine updated from Nov > Dec. I wouldn't be too worried. The specific delivery date is what matters.

Must've been a new design layout they pushed out; I see it as well.

I've been told my car is sitting on the lot in Dedham SC, but they don't have any open appointments until at least Friday...so yeah, they seem pretty busy.

Just installed my outlet yesterday! Also ordered a few accessories, of course... Less than a week!

One of the threads I read about it in: All LR motors are the same- MR one is NOT I don't think anyone has torn a MR apart yet so we don't know 100%, but apparently the parts catalog listed one rear drive motor for all LR (LR RWD, LR AWD, and LR P all use the same; just binned + software...

Definitely possible, but it's a 123XXX VIN. According to the VIN tracker, that aligns with the last batch of MSM LR RWDs produced. The other 123XXX VINs are showing delivery dates of Oct 28 (California) to Dec 1 (Louisiana). As I'm east coast, I'm feeling pretty confident my November date...

They've been searching for one, for me, for weeks now. I was working with my OA, then my IDA to secure one (decided to make the jump, after the news kept rolling in re: different motor, lower charge rate, lower warranty, 0-60 speed actually being 5.6, etc.). It was a freak situation that one...

Someone on the East Coast is about to get lucky! Just gave up my MR (delivery scheduled for next Friday) for a LR. Decided it was worth the extra money and they were able to find the one I had been looking for!

I’m with you. I’m lucky enough to be on the east coast (and day 0 reservation), so I have a delivery date. But how about an east coast with no reservation getting it before a day 0 west coast? Profit is king at the moment...I get it from a business perspective, but it’s not particularly “fair”...

For the sake of argument, let’s say they’re still at their 1,000/week number from July (NOT saying this is the case; just need to use a known number for the sake of explanation below). If they’re producing < 1,000 white Performance units per week, they’d presumably want to maximize their...

They do source the materials, though. If you see my previous post (#1126), they did have some undisclosed gating factor that was holding them back (per Elon). He didn't disclose what it was, but really could've only been sourcing materials or putting them together...and they seem to have...

This was not made up--thanks for the civility, though. From Electrek in July: "Tesla CEO Elon Musk mentioned the limited availability of the white interior – saying that they can only make 1,000 units per week and that the option will be linked to the performance version Model 3 until they can...
