The cake is a lie.

11/8 order, SR+, MSM, 19", black interior Text last Monday asking me to pick a delivery date, I chose 12/30 at Costa Mesa. Text said car was scheduled to exit factory 12/27 and that I'd get the VIN 1-2 days before hand. As of 12/28 I still had no VIN, so I emailed The Costa Mesa delivery...

Ah well, either way, this is a safe place to come and vent a little frustration, right? No need to bring TOO much reality into it ;) Thanks for the replies, SMAlset. Ultimately though its just tough to play the waiting game, and someone is going to be left without a seat in this cake walk...

I'm well aware - I see the vins appearing, see people getting delivery notices. But I also see plenty of people getting notices ahead of people who ordered a month + before others, from the same delivery center, with the exact same configuration. I get how the manufacturing process works - I...

Looking at the spreadsheet sorted on CA, its painfully obvious they are running the cheapest models last, figuring that if they don't deliver by EOY and people cancel it will have the least financial impact on their quarterly sales. It's really disappointing.

Same configuration as me (per the info I see you've entered in the spreadsheet) - SR+ MSM 19", black interior, no FSD, I ordered 11/8...nothing here :( :(

Beginning to think I picked the wrong config... SR+ MSM, 19", black interior, no FSD, ordered 11/8, Costa Mesa Looking at the spreadsheet I think the 19" wheels are out of the norm though I'm not sure why that should make such a difference. Reached out to SA yesterday, and they can provide no...

Grats man! Let us know your experience picking up. I'm hoping to pick up there s well soon and I like hearing about what it is like for you guys. (11/8 SR+)

Good taste, same order here, 11/8 Costa Mesa. Nada.

Is Costa Mesa sending out these emails also? 11/8 order, SR+,

Hah - same thing here, man. I was driving when the alert popped up on my watch. I pulled into the next parking lot to read that...and immediately felt stupid for doing so.

November 8th seems so long ago, but its really only been 5 weeks? They said 5-7 weeks when I ordered, so...I guess I shouldn't be on edge so much!

Standard email after you order

Great, now I'll have to start checking source every 30 minutes instead of every hour :)

Nice! Same car I ordered (non-lease) . You sir, have great taste ;)

Thanks for the info, Cruz. The SA I talked to at the Fashion Island showroom on Saturday said by the 15th. Either way, mid month seems key.

Oh man that's a good point. I let mine sit waiting for Tesla Financing for quite a while until I finally heard back that they denied me and then secured USAA financing separately. I still figured my "place in line" was held while financing details were worked out, but perhaps that is not the case?

Not yet, but only ordered on 11/8. I'm just watching Jae's posts to get an idea of when mine will come :)

You're one of the few people on that spreadsheet who match my order exactly, rags11fsu. SR+/Midnight silver/19"/NoFSD. You've got good taste :)

Just so you know your tag doesn't show on mobile - just desktop. So not everyone will see it :)

No problems here. It was a quick application online, took maybe 10 minutes? 5 year loan at 3.25 (3 if you use their banking to pay). I haven't been asked to transfer payment to Tesla yet, but it looks like a simple form to provide them to make the transfer. I'll update if I hit any snags in...

Odd. The website says currently on the model 3 order page: "Orders placed today will be available for delivery by 12/31, and eligible for the $1,875 Federal Tax Credit" (emphasis added by me) That doesn't sound like they give themselves much wiggle room. It doesn't say "may be" or "might be."...

I used USAA financing

I had someone from Costa Mesa contact me via email about uploading my proof of insurance, so at least I know they were looking at my order. But my subsequent emails have gone unanswered which is a bummer. Nov 8th order here, Midnight silver SR+ w/ 19" wheels. So I'll be watching your posts to...
