    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Ouch! I paid 10% more in Nov. Heading to the local sales center to stage a protest like they did in China.

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    So a Model YLR will be close to $45k with the tax incentive? I paid $15k more for a 3LR in Nov. This is depressing.

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    10k free charging miles for Nov deliveries would have been nice. I also took delivery in Nov. Didn't even bother asking for the $3750 price adjustment. Heck, even a license plate frame would have been nice.

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    You have to take delivery before 12/31 so it's only current inventory.

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Over 45 Model Ys available today in Northern Cal but limited number of Model 3s. I should have waited another month. Took delivery in Nov since someone totaled my Honda Accord.

    Model 3 2023 rear window tint -

    My local shop (Northern Cal) did a single sheet ceramic (15%). It took about 3 hours for the rear window. I ended up doing 15% for the rear side and back and 35% for the front side.

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    This is definitely a reactionary move by Tesla. They are window dressing their quarterly delivery numbers by providing the discount. Businesses don't offer discounts unless they absolutely have to. Drove pass the Fremont plant yesterday and it was completely filled with new vehicles. My...

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Buyers are "locked-in" for the $250 nonrefundable deposit, which they could easily walk away from. I know several people that cancelled their orders. Tesla probably didn't want people to walk away and end up with more inventory. A good move on their part.

    Glad it worked out for you.

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Buyers that don't qualify for the tax credit (income limit) would greatly benefit from the current discount instead of waiting for Jan or later delivery.

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    I don't think Tesla had a choice. People would have cancelled their order and placed a new order to get the discount. When I picked up my LR in mid Nov from Fremont, CA, there were close to 1000 new vehicles sitting on the lot. Wonder how bad the cancellation rate is for them to finally offer...

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Great news for people that waited but bad news for everyone that took delivery (like me) in November. Would have been nice if they had offered 50% of the discount to buyers that took delivery in November. I would have gladly waited until Dec since I had a pre-production vehicle which I ended...

    Teslas in Calif. with no front plate: Question

    For CA drivers out there, are you mounting your front license plates? I see about 80% in my area without front plates. I was planning to follow “the law” but the OEM double sided tape plate holder looks so cheap. The Quick Bandit is nice but not sure if it’s worth the price. Thanks

    What is this, is it Glue?

    I had something similar on the base of the rear door. It looked like adhesive but mine was not the same color. I was able to rub most of it off with mild soap.

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Unfortunately, I don't know which SC is the best around the Bay Area. Dublin SC is less than 10 mins from me so I am just going to bite the bullet and take my car there.

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    I hear you. I feel the same way. For $65k, I expect better QC and delivery experience. We had to find our own vehicle in the sea of cars after 6:00 pm. The SC was closed and for whatever reason, they didn't park the car in the SC customer parking area as promised. It was like Easter egg hunt. I...

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Got a surprise text this morning telling me the car is available for pick up today. It was scheduled for Tues. Scrambled to get down to the Fremont Plant. There were at least 500 cars ready for delivery in the lot. Found my car about 20 rows back. It was like Christmas morning. Then saw a...

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Bummer. Luckily I am 20 mins away from the Fremont plant. I have another LR order (existing inventory) with the exact configuration and I asked why they didn’t just automatically match the available LR to my order. Got the run around. Can’t say dealing with them has been fun.

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    There are a few LRs available for delivery now! I was able to swap an SR pending order (EDD Nov-Dec) for an LR just right now. Delivery is set for 11/9. I am beyond excited. I have another LR order (from existng inventory) which I will cancel once this one is picked up.

    My M3LR EDD also moved a bit this morning. Order date was 10/7. Original EDD was 10/27-11/24. New EDD 10/30-11/22. I guess it's a good sign.

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    I got a similar explanation (and same EDD) from the Dublin, CA show room as foot. Received the VIN the next day. They pretty much said they've never seen "pre-production" vehicles in existing inventory and that it's most likely from cancelled orders. They seemed fairly certain that the LR...
