    light hearted request... your car name? - and why

    Miss Daisy. She's white and I love driving her.

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    That does look nice! I also got ceramic, but not as dark - 35% all around with 70% on the windshield. I took delivery on Thursday, the 12th and had tint and PPF (the entire front and the trunk-opening area) applied the next day. I see in the threads that you ended up getting your car before...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Thanks and same to you! Yes, our cars are VIN twins! Oddly, my SA sent me the screen shot of their internal delivery info (Tesla Lightining Force) with my VIN and it shows that my car is "ready for transport to rail station", as if still in Cali. Yikes. If yours is here and ready for this...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Opened my laptop to the opened Tesla page and found no VIN in the extension. Came to TMC, saw all the VIN activity and thought....hmmmm? Refreshed the Tesla page and VIN POPPED UP! No delivery date set - I did not get texts about delivery, etc. Merry Christmas to us all! Ordered 10/12...

    Day 1 accessories?

    Great find! It's going in my cart! Much of what I have has already been posted: Maxpider floor mats (PartCatalog.com), wireless charging pad/hub/spacer (Jeda), console tray, rubber console/cupholder mats, screen protecter and satin black console wrap (Abstract Ocean), frunk, trunk and mini...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    If you have a VIN and/or delivery scheduled then you should be driving a Model 3 soon. My application was complete. It's pretty obvious at this point to be a crap shoot of when and where cars will be delivered. There are people who ordered before me still waiting while others who ordered...

    White Interior Deliveries SR+

    Same to all of the above, but with 19" wheels and in FL. :confused:

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Not at all. I emailed a screen grab to my guy and he says he doesn't know why those texts are being sent: "how can they "schedule delivery" without a VIN"? It sounds like they're getting ready to build your car, but why not mine as well since they're twins 'n all? *shrug*

    Day 1 accessories?

    Same! What splash guards did you get? I can't decide if I want white (on white) or black (on white). It was originally my husband's idea for me to buy a Tesla, so he has been "backseat buying" with me. Not only have I bought a bunch of stuff, but he has bought his own toys. I don't mind at...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Well it's a start. I guess I should be glad to see some white interiors and 19" wheels rolling out. I still have to sell my car and can technically still wait (as long as it's before 31st), but I'd like to put away my floor mats and boxes of random accessories before I have to get the...

    Wiki Model 3 Order Tracking Spreadsheet

    A few have (even some orders later than mine). VIN assignment seems to be random, based on configuration (exterior paint, seats and tires) and not order dates or even region. I guess one thing to be grateful for is that VINS are finally happening so the rest of us should be hearing something...

    Wiki Model 3 Order Tracking Spreadsheet

    I'm still (im)patiently waiting for a VIN: SR+ white/white/19" ordered 10/12 in FL. But did find today that I earned a referral and 1,000 supercharger miles :cool: If only I had a car to charge.

    Wiki Model 3 Order Tracking Spreadsheet

    That is exactly what I've been told. Once they start your build, your VIN is assigned at that time. How you are notified seems to be the variable: shows up in source, shows up on Tesla account or SA/DA contacts you for delivery. I'll take any of the three. My SA said that was their reason...

    Wiki Model 3 Order Tracking Spreadsheet

    I'm still waiting in Tampa for my Oct 12th order, as well. My "soft build date" of Nov 14th came and went with no VIN assigned. *not surprised* :( I contacted my SA today when I noticed my "manage" page disappeared and the app showed an "error" (both eventually came back - still no VIN). His...

    Saw this trailer of Model 3s and MSs just now

    I can't confirm the exact number of hours, but: I mentioned to my SA that I had "heard" people were being rushed into accepting delivery as soon as their car became available and that Tesla would "give away your car if you couldn't pick it up". He as much said, "Yep. I would get here the next...

    Saw this trailer of Model 3s and MSs just now

    I can only speak of my communication from Tesla to confirm that NA production will be starting this week (if it hasn't already!). My SR+ has a "soft build date" for Thursday November 14th. Another poster waiting on the same config states hers will be built on the 11th/12th (IIRC). I ordered in...

    Custom orders for Porsche (and many others) can take 8-12 weeks. So, longer than Tesla.

    No Frunk Bag Hooks

    The info I heard was that they were never meant to be bag hooks at all and were simply "screw covers". One service center even delayed delivery of a few vehicles at first because they thought the "frunk hooks" were missing. Maybe complaints (breakage from too many heavy shopping bags?) caused...

    What accessories in the Tesla Shop use the Frunk Bag Clips?

    I heard that as well and my SA went further saying that although he and all other SAs sold them as "bag hooks", they were never meant to be anything other than screw cover caps! :confused: He was going to see if they were listed somewhere in a parts book for ordering separately....

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    I only added an approximate loan amount today, once I heard it would be weeks until delivery. Tesla prefers everyone to have their accounts "decided" with all of that info, but they also realize that without VINs, there is only so much we can do right now. I still have to sell my current car...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Just got back from another test drive and my SA states car will be here "in two weeks", allowing for the slow train, of course. Build date is still 11.14 :)

    No VINs in October?

    Went for a second, longer test drive today with a full demo of features with my SA. He looked it up in front of me and again confirmed that the build for my SR+ (white on white, 19") was scheduled for next week (Nov. 14th) and that my car would "be here in two weeks". He also stated that the...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    I can’t make it to this event and sorry I will miss the opportunity to meet you! I work until 9pm that day so my SA (Justin, at the mall who is amazing ) has offered to do an extended re-test drive and personal overview with me on my own. So awesome! Please let me know if there is any insight...

    What accessories in the Tesla Shop use the Frunk Bag Clips?

    :AbstractOcean has entered the chat ;) Seriously, they should get on that with the amount of uproar it’s caused. Maybe some well measured L-brackets...? I’m convinced the hive mind here could solve this problem.

    No Frunk Bag Hooks

    Oh! Well that’s a different story! Not that I’m bothered, but they should just say so to shut us all up.

    No Frunk Bag Hooks

    The problem with all the missing/changed parts is that there is no communication about what should/shouldn’t be included. Without an official announcement from Tesla (“we no longer supply frunk bag hooks”), we all have to assume what happened. The factory is on all-out production mode right now...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Got a text from Tampa SA today. My SR+ white/white/19” is being built on 11/14 and expected delivery is 11/21-23. No VIN of course - it isn’t built yet so... I will still check, though.
  32. M

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    My SA says I have a "soft build date in November" and confirmed that they are waiting for (4) SR+ white/white for delivery to Tampa. Maybe since there seems to be a small cluster with our config, we might get some attention down here! :D

    Wiki Model 3 Order Tracking Spreadsheet

    I ordered SR+ white/white/19" on Oct. 12th. I also noticed my price increased and the delivery time frame of "2 weeks" has been removed and has been replaced with a blurb about "delivery will be completed by order date, configuration, delivery location, etc." They don't even list a range of...

    ^ Thank you - good to know! Also good to know that Tesla is selling a sheeeet ton of vehicles.

    No VINs in October?

    On second thought, maybe some of these reservation numbers are for Model Y's (or S, X) and not all just Model 3s?? We can only hope.

    No VINs in October?

    Same! I've become a stalker (no VIN today). Thanks for the info, but I don't like that math. Is it possible 27,831 cars were ordered between September 29th and October 12th alone? Multiply that by 6... If they can crank out 7,000/week within a roughly 12 week time frame (time for delivery /...

    No VINs in October?

    It was about 2pm, right after my test drive. If they are sequential, there were 714 cars sold between mine and yours. In one day! Another guy here posted his RN from Oct. 10th (or so) that seemed to suggest there were 835 cars ordered between the two days. Again, if these numbers go in...

    No VINs in October?

    What is the last 5 of your RN number? I ordered Oct. 12th and mine is 54276. Just curious how many cars were ordered between yours and mine - assuming they're sequential, that is.

    No VINs in October?

    I've had pretty good luck with them so far. For context: I placed my order in a showroom (in a mall) with a Sales Associate who completed my order online. I had his cell number (to text him a copy of my digital insurance card), so was able to text him a two different times since then - both of...

    No VINs in October?

    That's weird. Did he just "cold email" you out of the blue? You must surely be on some list... Mine wasn't offering EOY delivery, however. He just said "touching base to see if there is anything I can help with?". I looked again and my guy's title is actually "Sales Advisor / Lead Marketer"...

    No VINs in October?

    Exactly - waiting is all we have right now. But it will be worth it, I feel. While competition will certainly be there (some at almost three times the price!), there is no mention of potential software upgrades that come with owning a Tesla - not to mention self-driving capability! I'm pretty...

    Which way did they go? I know of two who are waiting for SR+ white on white down south!

    No VINs in October?

    I just closed out of this site to find an email from a Tesla "Marketing Lead" asking if I needed anything. Never heard from this guy before. I replied asking if I would get a VIN before the end of the year and to answer some of the lingering questions posted here: if North American production...

    OK ... what is Tesla trying to do now?

    I should also receive 1,000 supercharger miles (used friend's code - but he has unlimited?!) and my SA said it won't show up until you have the car and someone has to manually add the credits to your charger account after the fact. Anyone know if this is true? Who do you call?

    No VINs in October?

    Exactly! My SAs have said several times that they aren't produced in any particular batches (by color or configuration), but it's also obvious they aren't assigned by date either...It must be darts! If the Freemont Factory were only filled with more talking heads than robots, we might know...

    Don't forget Australia, New Zealand, Ireland... but don't take my word for it. "Australia is one of only 6 right-hand drive markets that Tesla is currently selling Model 3 along with the UK, Ireland, New Zealand, Hong Kong and Macau." New data shows surge in right hand drive Model 3s...
