Congrats!

I did not try the tesla trade-in, but I pretty much got quoted from every place online (Vroom, carmax, carfax, KBB, etc). CarFax gave me the highest offer by a significant amount (they send the quote automatically to local dealerships, who would then call/email you in a flurry), sold my old car...

Walked in preferring MSM, but walked out with a Blue reservation. We were lucky to see one MSM and one Blue next to each other supercharging at the dealership, and decided on blue. Wife wanted to save the $1k lol but did agree the blue pops out a bit more. Very subjective, but I remember...

Similar experience, dealerships make me feel exhausted. I test drove the EV6 and liked it. The interior is very futuristic and luxurious. But I was turned off by the dealer markups (it was about $5k -7k for the GT-line, but dealer said he could waive that if I made the purchase right away). They...

For those who have / had the tesmanian floor mats, do they feel too rubbery or too hard when you step on them? I love the practicality of them, but wonder if they are a bit too 'industrial' aesthetic wise. Thank you!

Thanks for the advice! I was thinking about it - got a quote for $350 from the same place I did the windows/windshield, sounds reasonable I think? I definitely would prefer a cool car cabin.

70% ceramic tint on windshield and 50% on both front windows. Love the blue so far!

Absolutely love the blue :) 70% tint on windshield and 50% on both front windows. Full front PPF.

Looks beautiful Well deserved after the long wait. Any immediate plans for tinting/PPF etc?

I received the same call a couple days before receiving my VIN - should be a good sign! Nothing changed immediately after the call, but it should indicate they are lining you up with a car.

You are welcome! YMMV but the tesla insurance quote i initially received was 50% more expensive than the Geico one I ended up going with (could be due to the fact that with Geico, I was bundling with my wife's current insurance). Since you have a little time before pick-up, make sure you shop...

On the same day I received my VIN, the app allowed me to take care of the insurance and make the final payment. I took care of insurance by uploading my proof of insurance right away, and before I made my final payment I received a text with a link to schedule pick-up and confirm order details...

Picked up this morning at Dublin, CA. VIN = F405. All-season tires and AMD. Rarely received any text updates during the process, mostly by direct phone calls (pick up the 888 number!). Did see a couple Red MYPs waiting to get detailed + picked up in the lot. SA said it'll be a busy couple weeks...

Scheduled to pick up at Dublin, CA on 3/21. Must have lucked out on the right configurations at the right time... whole process less than 10 days!

Woke up with a VIN o_O

Glad it was helpful - I learned about it from a reddit post myself 😅 I basically wrote in the email the offer I have received from the app, and that "the rate is higher than I am comfortable with, and I am wondering if you can kindly shop my loan for a better rate". Received a response within 15...

Congrats! Were you given an option to pick up instead of home delivery?

wow - it kept getting better. Enjoy it in good health!

I just did the credit application - Wells Fargo gave me a whopping 4.9% even though I have decent credit (low-mid 700s). I emailed [email protected] asking for a better rate, and within one hour, they came back with the 2.74% floor rate by BMO Harris. A good 2.5% difference just by an email...

You guessed right. Don't mean to wash the wall but everything happens so quickly. Just received a 888 phone call from Tesla, and the representatives says my MYP is scheduled to be delivered by the end of month. She was calling to confirm my payment method and if I have any trade-ins. No VIN yet...

Updated EDD 2: March 18 - 26 😅

Congrats, a smooth timeline you had there. I have an almost identical configuration - hoping for more Bay Area luck.

ugh that sucks. hope it'll be built in March!

Agreed. what is your current EDD now? Good luck OP!

Congratulations! That's a smooth transaction. Enjoy!

I doubt it'll hold up... Even though I am not in a total rush due to WFH (still) and wife drives a gas saving mini cooper, I do hate false hopes.... 😅

OD 3/14/22, East Bay, =California. MYP blue/blk no fsd. no tow. Original EDD: May Updated EDD: March 16 - 26. 🤔 Was initially excited, but upon reading this thread, realize it's too good to be true most likely.
