This is just wrong! Just some bad luck but I’m sure you will be happy when you get your car and this extra month of delay in your case will be forgotten soon. All the best to you. I don’t know why I’m still lurking on this forum (rooting for you guys to get your cars soon, I guess!) but one...

Right. Mine is 4446-826=3620. And, indeed, I do have the “daily” and “trip” delineation. So I guess that settles it on how to tell if your car has an NCA or LFP battery. As many have stated before, there are minor pros/cons based on your use case, but for most of us, it’s a non issue. E.g...

4446 lbs for the NCA I took delivery of on Friday

I looked at the weight of the car on the door jamb and then googled the weight of the M3 with NCA vs LFP. Mine is an NCA, as expected since I had ordered in end June and never received the switch-to-LFP email which Tesla only sent to those who were willing to take an LFP and accelerate delivery...

Dad didn’t do well in the high school 💪🏾 department, hoping my son does better. Not to veer off too far but my kids don’t seem to really be as excited about a car for them as I would’ve been at their age. It’s just not the rite of passage into adulthood that it used to be. Teens today say Dad...

Hey - thanks a lot!

Well, the car was delivered this morning. I’ll let my son do the close inspection on build quality when he’s back from school in a few hours. It’s his car after all. But I did notice all 4 doors need to be slammed rather hard to close completely. Maybe after a while we won’t have to slam the...

Thanks for this great explanation! My car is set for home delivery tomorrow morning.

this seems to be correct. My SA explained to me too that my NCA was likely to arrive earlier than the LFP I found in inventory because the LFP M3 was in pre-production and could take 2~3 weeks to be delivered. it turns out she was correct...

June 28 NCA order, home delivery in San Diego scheduled on Friday (even though I live close to the Carlsbad delivery center), got the email from Tesla as well as VIN last night. LFP would've been fine too in sunny San Diego weather and for the short daily commute this car will be used for, but...

Well, she also said “it’s up to you, maybe the nca car will get delayed to October …or even to January…or that the LFP car could be ready sooner than the 2 week estimate on the nca..”. Basically she didn’t know but her comments were along the lines of “if I were you, I’d wait since most likely...

Ordered June 28 San Diego (technically June 15 but changed to white seats on June 28, which reset the “order date”). EDD steady recently at 31Aug-14Sept. Yep, hope it’s a Sept delivery. The SA talked me out of placing a new order for an LFP inventory car, saying that the red color...

Well, it’s hard to guesstimate who was on the list to receive a VIN soon but it does seem that there was some sort of cutoff date. Ie the letter seems to have gone out to those whose deliveries were towards the end of Q4. Btw agree with the comments about carvana eroding the value of leasing...

I have to think it’s just a glitch and the EDD will get updated in a day or two to reflect a September delivery. I ordered in mid June and my EDD is still holding steady aug 31-sept 14. We didn’t get the emails offering a switch to the LFP battery models in exchange for pulling in the EDD by...

I didn’t get the letter. I suspect Tesla is sending this letter only to those with Q4 EDDs. I would get LFP battery version in a heart beat even with the same September EDD window as i have now if Tesla were to offer a discount on the lower capacity. But the tone of of the letter implies that...

Good move! I think the effective date of Jan 1 onwards is more likely than Oct 1. The $100k income cap is a non-binding amendment. There’s plenty of political horse trading to happen as yet and it’s hard to predict what the final form of EV credits will be, so I’ll be happy to take delivery...

SoCal order here too. Ordered 6/15 red ext, modified to white seats 6/28 (my account now shows the “order date” at 6/28) and …yeah…just like you SoCal folks, the EDD window has stayed steady at 9/5 - 9/25 for a few weeks now. I guess the car will arrive when it does I.e. I agree that the EDD is...

Gorgeous and congrats!

San Diego order here too. Ordered June 15, changed seat color on June 28, current EDD 9/5 - 9/25 but we all know that don’t mean jack. I am reconciled to and end sept delivery and, arnesto, surely you will get your car before me. It’s not too long now.

Dunno. Maybe that they gave me a with and without permit cost estimate was a clue that a permit isn’t really necessary.

I would rather they use the spare time carefully inspecting the cars that they’ve already built before delivering them to customers! Also, isn’t it odd that Tesla leads in FSD technology but cannot predict our cars’ EDD even reasonably accurately? 😂

I paid $850 in San Diego for installing the wall connector. It required around 6 feet of cabling and conduit away from the main panel. $300 of the $850 went towards permit processing fees but come to think of it I have not heard from anybody about scheduling a permit inspection as yet (it’s...

I ordered the Spigen. Seems well rated.

I joined this forum yesterday and have read a lot of posts over the past 24 hours. The somewhat randomly changing EDD windows are disappointing and you would expect better from one of the world’s biggest companies in terms of market capitalization! The build quality issues has been even more...

Ordered June 15 (changed seat color June 28). Today’s EDD window is 29Aug-18Sept. I hope us San Diego folks waiting for 9+ weeks will get our VINs/M3s soon!
