    First Time EV Buyer (Help...)

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    That was my experience this week. Just show proof of policy. In my case the policy was for a different car. In fact I didn’t have to show them anything in person, just needed to upload a valid policy (any car) to the app
