This will be Tesla #4. Ordered in 12/21, 6 seat configuration. Didn't complete the rest of the steps, and then 2 days ago I decided to add my info and complete that part (cash delivery, will swap it later to financing) and it says Estimated Delivery January. LOL. I've never once seen a target be...

QQ: I have 2 Tesla's but all of them have been inventory buys, vs. orders fulfilled. I have a Y scheduled for 9/17 - 9/30 and I'm wondering when VIN's typically show up. I've been 2 weeks out before from EDD without seeing a VIN, yet I know people have received VIN's well before EDD. Is there a...

Thanks man. I'll take all the support I can get.

I know my Black/Black Y7 didn't just go from an EDD of 9/17 - 9/28 to January. 😐

At least with Tesla you're not catching L's every time you open the app. SNKRS is a complete joke. At this point I believe they've just opened up the Auction API to GOAT and StockX and said "we've got your card on file, order as many as you'd like" - I guess that's an easy way to unload inventory.

Yep. If you head down to Town Center or the Square and grab one of their stations you'll just pull out that adapter, put it in your charge port, then plug directly into that. When you unplug the charging cable pulls away from the adapter, leaving your adapter still in the car, then you remove...

Ft Lauderdale & Nashville have 2 available.

Looking for some first hand recommendations for vinyl wraps in the Portland area. Price you paid, vinyl brand used and length of time to install would be great to know as well.

White on White M3P is available in the Highland Park, IL area (may be able to be shipped anywhere, though) - so if someone's interested they better make a call before it gets snapped up.

I used to work with a company that acted as an auto transport broker, meaning we get the calls and route them to auto transport companies for quotes. Here's the reality. It's a rough industry. Before the mandate that any licensed auto transport company carry a $75k bond, it was a wild west...

Maybe it's traffic based, or the fact I'm considered as living in the sticks and they have to cross a couple of bridges. I'm not sure. I can drive to that location in less than 25 minutes. They just won't come out here. If traffic was heavy it'd take over 40 minutes, though. Maybe that on a RT...

I can see that. Still hate the T logo, though. I will say this, back when I had a Lotus Elise, I hated that Lotus text as well. It was just a sticker which was prone to peeling. Pretty weak stuff. I can imagine the TESLA lettering would look kind of douchy.

I vote no. I really dislike the emblem on the hood. And on the rear deck I'd rather see T E S L A in letters than whatever that funky ass Thor's Hammer that a 9 year old drew for an art class. Don't even get me started on that Dual Motor ridiculousness. Ughh.

Well, there is a reason to travel to an SC when you live outside the zone. It totally sucks to be 25 or so miles from my SC and it's "too far" to make a house call. I am glad that it worked out for you, though, because that means that it's still helping a lot of people with a low-cost...

Like it says, do you think the M3P should get a boost upgrade? Personally, I say yes, because always more power.

All I got out of this writeup is [well thought out review] M3 Plaid!

Would love it if they did bodywork. Really sucks to have to find Tesla-approved shops instead of dealing with Tesla service themselves. Even though it states they do it, they informed us they most certainly do not.

I thought I'd hate them, but they look great in person. I would really rather they be 18", though. I'm considering alternatives solely for that reason. Otherwise, yeah, they look pretty nice IRL.

$0.0706 here. Dirt cheap, for us, and it sounds like even cheaper for you. The PNW has some upsides.

Switching from the LR to the M3P is pretty dramatic. Both are fast, but M3P is on another level. If you want to take it up a notch, sit in the passenger seat. You don't even fully understand the torque until you're not controlling it. It's wild.

Absolutely! Just not in CA apparently. My SA said all CA cars stay in CA because they'll sell fast. Also, CA is kind of a weird state with restrictions and massive sales tax. There's probably some sort of agreement. Otherwise, yes. Just contact your SA when you see one popup, shoot over the...

Damn, @drpheta . If I'd have known that I would have pinged you on the Red/White M3P that dropped in Cherry Hill, NJ yesterday. It lasted about 30 minutes. Could have had that shipped pretty cheaply, too.

To be fair, SA's don't know much. Your best bet is to monitor inventory as it comes in and snap up a match. Whether what SA's say is true or not, the reality is M3/P's are being shipped and declined, or buyers fall through every day, so instead of waiting you can get "lucky" if you monitor...

LOL this was me yesterday. I picked up my M3P with a 50% charge (160 miles) and said "what's the deal?" and the SA said "all our cars are delivered at 50%" - oh, okay, so I guess when I bought an M3LR last month the 90% charge on delivery was just a mistake? HAHA. Come on. Lazy. And that's...

Just got home. Will get the M3P out with Dragy and do some pulls.

Your first EDD is a complete guess, then it starts adjusting to a shorter timeframe. You'll see after about a week, week and a half that you're 20 days out or so. For instance, I would be picking my 7/30 build up on 8/23 - 8/26 but instead of waiting I snapped up a MSM/White that hit inventory...

Nahhh, give it 20 - 25 days, you'll be fine.

WooHoo Doc! That's siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiick

You're going to LOVE that 14-50 my man! We're getting 33/mph at home and quite honestly, you could drain it to 0% and have a full battery before you wake up. It's awesome. Just...you know...don't do that.

Pickup is tomorrow. Everything is arranged. I'm SO ready to unleash the power #TeamMSM

Damn I love that color more every time I see it. Does anyone know if this is the same red on the older Model S, or is this 3-specific color? Looks amazing.

When I say "scrapped", I mean the current iteration as we know it. The longer it takes to go to market, the more "product creep" will set in. It doesn't mean it will end up that way, but again, they clearly aren't hitting production targets and with the CT 3 steps out of full scale production...

Alright, SA confirmed pickup date Saturday. Stoked. Did I mention some lady backed into my M3 LR, fled the scene but the camera caught her plate and she got arrested? ...that also happened this week LOL. Maybe I'll make a separate post on that.

Nope, I use Tesla Stats. In the past I've found matches in CA and spoke to my SA and he said "Vehicles in CA stay in CA because they will sell in CA" HAHAHA. Basically, "shut up, we can't get a car that will last 5 minutes in inventory" - this time I got lucky because it was scheduled to arrive...

Snapped up a M3P (MSM/White) a few minutes ago that someone passed on. Called up my SA. Matched over the phone. Assigned VIN. Updated financials in my account. Awaiting delivery in the next couple of days as it's still in the last stage of transport. Excited because I originally wanted the...

2nd this. Just downloaded it, went for a drive, checked out the features and stats. Easily worth the $49.99.

Is that a FSD feature or does it work with standard autopilot? I've never tried it and always feel like it wouldn't actively brake for me at any speed. Are there specific settings you have for it to work well?

Buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuurn

So much of the range argument seems to ignore the fact of geography. On the East Coast you simply don't need 450 - 500 miles of range. Out here in the West, you do. Factor in battery degradation, cold temps and you could see 280 - 300 actual miles on a 500 estimated range. Maybe worse...

Yes it is. You can show proof of insurance without VIN and it's acceptable. I get what you're saying, and normally I'd agree, but the thing is the Tesla system allows you to just input your card. This becomes a more complete application and you're moved further up the queue. I've heard this...

Same here.

Mine changed from December to 10/13 - 11/02. Welcome change! Guess Giga Texas is picking up!

Very much into performance, but that's also what I have motorcycles for. If I want a stiff ride I can simply ride one of those and possibly go faster. Now, the M3P range, yeah, it's important if I'm genuinely doing 400 wh/mi+ per trip I'm not going to realize estimated mileage. It will be way...

I feel you Doc. In June we sold 3 of our vehicles at the height of the used car pricing, it was too much profit to leave on the table. Mustang GT was $4k loss with 3 years of ownership, but the real money was made on a 21 Tundra I picked up for $35k OTD after all fees. Driveway paid $44k for...

Thought I'd check in here. 7/26 order Black/White 7 Seat w/Tow Package; EDD December EDD shifts from empty to December every few days, no real updates like I've had with other models. Imagine they're waiting on Giga Texas for Q4 fulfillment. Wouldn't be surprised if this gets pushed to Jan 22.

LOL EDD jumped from 8/16 - 09/05 to 9/6 - 9/26. Guess the person that chooses the wooden stickers for the interior panels is going on maternity leave.

Will have 2 Model 3's within the next 2 weeks, so I'll update here. I don't imagine there will be any issues considering it's a simple swipe with both cars on the same account.

In the PDX area. Have the M3 LR and the M3P and Y are on order. A tax credit would be awesome, not liking the Tesla exclusion I'm currently seeing, though. Boooooooooo. May punt the Y from December to 1/22 just to see if that $10k+ credit hits. That'd be nice.

You made the right choice and should hopefully take delivery by the first week of September. There's truly nothing like the linear power of a Tesla, and the M3P will make you laugh...constantly. Like a stupid kid. Just don't forget to plug it back in.
