    September 2021 Order Delivery Dates

    Alright, I'm signing off the September orders thread with well-wishes for everybody. I'm sure your MYs are coming soon. There were 12 MYs waiting for pickup when we showed up for our appointment today—all colors, only one MYP—along with several 3s, an X and two S. The vehicles are moving...

    September 2021 Order Delivery Dates

    I have white seats, 20" wheels, and do have the tow hitch. Taking delivery tomorrow, although the VIN is 417xxx, so a couple weeks ahead of the production for VINs people are getting the last couple days.

    September 2021 Order Delivery Dates

    OD 9/29. It's a Freemont build, I'm not sure how new? It has to be a cancellation. When I got my M3 VIN it was 2 weeks or so I think before the car arrived.

    Just got the VIN text, EDD changed from 5/28-6/24ish to 4/20-4/24. There's hope peeps! Tysons, VA - MYLR/White/White/20"/tow/nofsd

    This sounds exactly what Tesla is doing if you don't keep checking on EDD. I'm sure the stealerships have the same EDD drama, they just don't show it to the consumer.

    September 2021 Order Delivery Dates

    Get your facts out of here and get back to complaining please! It is funny, though, I just saw a Toyota commercial promoting vehicle reservations like having to buy before it's built is a desirable thing. It's not their business model, but they have no choice at this point.

    September 2021 Order Delivery Dates

    Never. Here's why: First, just because they are bad at it doesn't mean they aren't interested in it. Purely from a priority perspective when a company is firmly in hypergrowth mode for multiple years running, they're reasonably more focused on production and quality. Which blends into reason 2...

    September 2021 Order Delivery Dates

    Interesting that you changed your config to match my original config, and within a couple days my EDD slid back from Apr-May to May-June. 🤔 You took my car! lol Congrats on starting the final lap. Yesterday I finished swapping out my gen 2 connector with a pair of gen 3s, so I'm officially...

    September 2021 Order Delivery Dates

    That's good and encouraging perspective. My original EDD was April (OD 9/29) so I'll be happy if it's only a 1 month (~15%) miss.

    September 2021 Order Delivery Dates

    I wrote a Python script that reloads the page every five seconds and records any changes in a database. It also alerts me via email, text, and flashing the lights through SmartThings. It pairs up with another script that parses the Teslike order tracker and analyses changes in realtime based on...

    September 2021 Order Delivery Dates

    No. Not possible. You and Tesla have a contract that shows up in the liability column for all the bean-counters. That liability doesn't go off the books until it is fulfilled or canceled.

    September 2021 Order Delivery Dates

    I actually stopped in and asked an SA about it today. He said making the change would be at today's pricing, so while my MYLR config (white/white/20"/5/tow) is locked in at $57,990 if I changed to MYP (white/white/21"/5/tow) it would be 69,990. So an increase of $12,000 and it may or may not...

    Thank you for your permission. :) But I wasn't meaning to argue anything, just acknowledging what was said. I wish my experience was consistent as well, I'd have a better EDD than 8/8-9/5.

    As correlation does not equal causation, I think this confirms my impression of where the basis of the theory originated. I bet Elon gets a kick out of all this stuff though.

    September 2021 Order Delivery Dates

    Is this documented fact or just widely accepted speculation? I've always suspected the latter because with my M3 I didn't complete the payment info until after I had the VIN. Of course wait times back then were only a couple months. Anyway I have just assumed this was based on something an...

    Just got the same exact dates in VA. I'm about to go change to MYP just to get some level of priority.

    September 2021 Order Delivery Dates

    Did you compare the offer to anything like Carvana? My EDD is still June, but I'm thinking of selling to Carvana and being down a car for a few months based on their current offer.

    Dashcam doesn’t alert when it isn’t working

    Thank you for this. I don't know how long my dashcam hasn't been working, but after messing with it for weeks I finally brought it inside and manually added the TeslaCam folder and now it works again for the first time since... well, who knows? Thank goodness I didn't need it.

    Range Loss Over Time, What Can Be Expected, Efficiency, How to Maintain Battery Health

    My 2020 M3SP shows 285 miles at full charge but I've only got 21k on it. So that sounds reasonable. I'm sure I could get more range if I drove it like it was a Chevy Volt, but...

    September 2021 Order Delivery Dates

    I'm glad at least some people are seeing progress. I just checked for the first time in a little bit and it's back to showing June again. (Had been showing May 02-30 for the past few weeks after spending most of Dec & Jan in June jail.) I'm in no hurry, but not gonna lie it's a bit...

    September 2021 Order Delivery Dates

    I ordered a Subzero refrigerator and a MY on the same day and both had April for estimated delivery. The MY is now showing May and the fridge is estimated for July. Don't be discouraged if you have a fridge in your kitchen. :)

    Electricians Charge too much

    I'm no electrician, but I'm genuinely curious what else goes into selecting wire gauge other than the load? Most around-the-home electric seems to be simple enough for people who can read instructions and exercise patience, but there is real danger when the cost of hiring a professional leads...

    September 2021 Order Delivery Dates

    Complaints are always louder than praises. When I took delivery of my M3 in 2019, I was a bit worried based on everything I read online. Then I realized it was mostly just noise from people looking for something to complain about. Not to say there are no issues, but the overwhelming majority of...

    Fun to see lots of things shifting. I just popped out of June jail into May EDD. First movement in a month or so. Maybe all this activity hints that Austin logistics are kicking into gear? 🤷

    September 2021 Order Delivery Dates

    MCU3 vs iPad rendering performance sounds like a strawman. In 2 years of driving an M3P I remember exactly zero times where rendering performance would have mattered for anything. Load time for Hulu or the web browser is another issue for me though, and I'm looking forward to the faster AMD...

    September 2021 Order Delivery Dates

    OD was 9/29 I think. MYLR, white/white, induction, tow. On one hand I'm not in a rush as the original estimate was April and I'd enjoy a TX built car over CA. On the other hand having this for my bride means I can stop sharing my car with her. 🤣

    Glad to see at least some east coast EDDs on the board. Mine pushed back to June a month ago and hasn't changed.

    September 2021 Order Delivery Dates

    I bought the air pump/flat repair pump with my M3. Got a screw in the tire a year later, and the goo wouldn't come out of the flat repair thing. So it's worthless except as an air pump. For the MY, I'll be buying a 3rd party kit.

    September 2021 Order Delivery Dates

    Figured I'd chime in after seeing helpful posts that mirror my experience. Ordered Sept 29, initial date was April. Moved to March for a while and then jumped to Nov/Dec which had me scrambling until it moved to Feb-Mar after a couple days. Now it's saying June. MYLR, white, 20", tow hitch...

    Getting Car pinged, who to contact?

    Another thing to remember is that some people have zero information. As an example, I was reticent to reach out to anybody, because I know they are slammed. But I had a VIN in source and MVPA for some time with zero information. My SA has never responded to an email, and the only phone number I...

    Finally sub 2 minutes at BRP with street tires

    LR AWD Performance (Stealth TM3) Waiting Room

    I talked to a delivery specialist (of some sort) in the last hour, who confirmed that my car is on a truck and en route to the right coast. I've tried to avoid bugging people too much because I know they're slammed, but the complete lack of info bothered me so this was the second time I reached...

    I sold my car myself because I knew I'd get a ton more than a trade (which I did). Unfortunately now I'm without wheels and I start a new job next week. Whoops!

    how accurate is delivery date once you receive VIN number?

    Heck I just want to know when a delivery date will show. I've had a VIN (in source and on MVPA) for a week, but the manage page still says "Estimated Delivery: 4 - 6 weeks from order placed date"

    That's impressive if they pick up or respond to voicemails. Out here in Tysons VA they never answer or call back. I have to go through online chat to get any response.

    How did SA communicate with you?

    My wife says I'm still communicating when I say nothing at all. My SA communicates with me the same way.

    LR AWD Performance (Stealth TM3) Waiting Room

    This gives me hope my wait might not be much longer. I switched to stealth on 12/3, and have even paid in full in hopes that may somehow magically help me get moved along quickly. Hoping they can somehow get my car to VA this week.
