Finalizing delivery, minor gap issue with window glass and back trunk and a scuff on rear pax door. Other than that is all good. Vin 252 xxx has matrix headlights

Delivery in 2 hours! More relieved than excited that the day is here. Questions for those who have graduated but are still kind enough to stay around here, I have my cashier checks, delivery checklist and my phone. What else do I need for later?

Your situation is almost exactly like mine. I got vin about a couple weeks ago, and I just got the text to schedule delivery today. The option was also only for June 3 to 5, and I picked June 4th.

I understand that it is easier to go with Tesla for your loan, but is it really worth it to "lose" hundreds or even thousands of dollars over a few years just to save a couple of hours applying at credit union?

Recommend Affinity Federal credit union. I got a 1.89 for 36 mo, but their longer term rates are good too. Very good service is what sealed the deal for me.

In your case, I think it may delay your delivery. You ordered only couple week after I did, and I have already been assigned a vin early this week. Also the fact that you are not far away from your latest EDD range. It is correct that color doesn't add resale value, but to me is worth it to...

Yes, I did wait until I got a vin to start the process, as rates could fluctuate until the bank locks it down with a vin + purchase agreement, so I didn't want to take a risk being stuck with a bank that raise their rate if my EDD got pushed back. I suggest you narrow down your list of lenders...

A CU that I checked with previously told me that they will send the check to me, and the check will have to be endorsed by both me and Tesla to be cashed successfully.

Vin 252xxx, SA said car was born on 05/08 and now is in transit, EDD window is 5/24 to 5/28.

72 months is a quite a long term, so the rate will be higher than 36 or 48 regardless of financier. My credit union has 72 month at 2.6%, but 36 month at 1.89%. So there are places that provides loan cheaper than Tesla, but may not be that much cheaper if you take a 72 month loan.

They have approved me the next morning after filing out the application and now the loan is in underwriting. From my application experience, everything is online. They asked me to upload a scan of my license as a part of the application, so I assume they have the built in capability to get...

My friend is getting delivery on May 12, his first 4-day delivery window was Apr 27, got pushed back 4 times due to ECU but it seems installed now.

Friend of mine picking his M3LR on May 12, after 4 times pushback due to missing ECU. So hopefully yours is soon. Coincidentally he also ordered his at end of 2021 (Dec), but he did push back delivery once.

Atlanta is getting the ECUs. friend of mine had vin with first 4-day edd window on 4/27, pushed back 3 times, got a text today asking to take delivery on May 12

Do any of you recommend the mud flaps for southern climate? Live in Atlanta, probably will travel around 3-400 miles radius from time to time...

Thanks for sharing! What checklist did you use if you don't mind sharing?

Yeah! So nice to see someone with the exact vin range and only one day difference on the Edd range! Our cars are probably sitting on the same trains lol :)

Another data point. Friend of mine also had delivery pushed back multiple times so far due to ECU. Vin 235xxx. He said he just got updated for delivery May 12. So hopefully the ECUs are getting shipped out now nationwide.

SA told me that I can just pay with cashier check when I pick up car (along with the loan check if you took loan)

I think so. Overall I think my journey has been very smooth and I'm pretty sure that most people are too. Good luck to you!

Got assigned vin yesterday, 252xxx. Called SA today and he said my car rolled off the floor yesterday and should have matrix headlights but can't confirm officially. But he did confirmed I have a functional charge port out of factory and has mobile charger. Financing wise I recommend Affinity...

I did, and from my experience you will not be placed on the back of the line but together with those who ordered LR around the same time you put in your initial M3 order.

I just got my vin today, 4 days before the start of my 2 week window, at the same time the EDD changed to a 4 day window

Just checked a few minutes ago and the EDD is now a 4 day window (5/24-5/28). It's asking me for insurance, to review docs, final payment and etc. Logged in on desktop browser and found VIN# published ( I have been searching the vin in source code in the last week or so but it was never there )...

Yeah (with fingers crossed)!! New EDD today after being caught up in the great pushback. Prior to today was 5/28 to 07/02. Today I got a much tighter window of 05/11 to 05/25. Hopefully this is the light at the end of the tunnel!

I just sold my 3 year old Kia PHEV to carvana a week ago, but I have been checking prices for a couple months. Price is higher than what I got the car for (taking into account for fed ev rebate) but the price has been steadily going down for the last few weeks (based on the same mileage, so odo...

First edd update ( date pushed back but range shrunk to 4 weeks ) about 3 weeks after last config change. Originally 05/05 to 06/09. Now showing 05/15 to 06/12. I'm pretty sure it's a coincidence but this update was one day after I texted SA the first time to make sure everything on my account...

Seems like location does have an impact. I'm in Atlanta and from perusing here, I gather many of us have early May to Early June EDD despite the wide distribution of order date

Check my old post here. There is a way for you to see in the system itself (instead of relying on SA) whether or not you will be charged the new pricing when you change your configuration. Best thing is that you can see the price you'll be charged prior to confirming change...

I would probably consider doing it for that price. Imagine what my heart had to go through when an auto shop I called wanted $2300 for just front bumper ppf.

Refer to my reply earlier on this thread. There is a way for you to pre-view what your new price will be when changing trim or options within the same model https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/threads/model-3-lr-awd-waiting-room.210398/page-1724#post-6547196

Did you order with FSD?

Maybe I should try that before handing my ride over to carvana. Got quotes from dealerships but none from the car brand.

Wow that is quite a long EDD wait. My order date is a week ago and my EDD frame is only two weeks later than yours.

Is the dealership a dealer of your cars brand?

Since many people ask this question, here's a good article Tesla customers can now change their configuration and maintain their original price [US only] https://driveteslacanada.ca/news/tesla-customers-can-now-change-their-configuration-and-maintain-their-original-price-us-only/

Just curious, is there carvana around your area? Carvana is offering to take my current ride at kbb private party value while dealerships that I've been talking to is low balling me about 4 grand less.

If you ordered prior to the $2k increase, I am 99% sure that you will not incur the increase for changing your current order color. I ordered prior to the $2k increase as well. In the timespan between then and just a week ago, I've changed from M3 RWD black interior, to white interior, back to...

Yeah, as long as it is within the same model, you can change all you want and your price will be according to the "menu" as of the time you first order and not the current price. I changed mine from rwd black interior to white and then back to black and then to LR, all within the span of a...

Depends. If you order before the recent price increases, it should be only the extra 1500, and supposedly still be in line (unless you are close to being assigned a vin). I ordered before the last 2 price increases, but I changed my model 3 from RWD to LR after the price increases and was only...

Actually I just recall that I saw a note when filling out the registration information that it is no changeable once the information is in. Anyone has experience on changing registration information?

Thank, I tried that and there are no conversation options for me under more options. Maybe because I'm a brand new member?

I might be interested. I got an M3LR (blue ext, black int,18 aero, no fsd) with EDD of May 05 - June 09. Price is also prior to latest 2 back to back increase. I was going to PM you but can't figure out how.
