Has anyone else noticed that since 2019.36.2.1 that Smart Summon displays the car as facing the wrong way when you go to summon it? Mine has started doing this since the update, and it's started going the wrong way towards the snow bank in the grass behind the parking spot at work. I quickly...

Brian from i1 Tesla did today:

Took delivery today in Indianapolis. Went through the famous Model 3 Delivery Checklist, and only found one (slight) panel gap at the driver's door to quarter panel. Completely within spec I'm sure, certainly won't drive the two hours down to service just for that, but they said it would be no...

For midrange, it would be closer to 48 hours! Ben Sullins of Teslanomics on YouTube claims it can be done (obviously assuming a commute similar to his), but I'm picking up my M3 on Friday and my electrician is coming on Saturday to install a NEMA 14-50 outlet in my garage. Also, I live...

Hang in there. I heard absolutely nothing until last evening when I received my delivery date text & email for a week from today from scheduling advisor (and CS provided VIN when I called, they said no official DA assigned yet), and I'm further away from Fremont than you are by a day's drive!

If anyone has a code, a PM would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance!

After zero contact (other than the mass text many of us received 3 days ago about completing the steps I completed at time of order), I received my delivery date (12/14) for pickup in Indianapolis and VIN (169,xxx) this evening!! Order Date: (LR) 10/15/18 switched to (MR) 10/19/18 Pearl White...

I'm assuming they used a VISA or Mastercard debit card for the deposit(s).

Will Tesla let you drive it off the lot without being paid though?

Not a mistake, he ( @Pbbjr ) is a poster here and confirmed his order specs in multiple posts, but unfortunately looks like his car isn't ready for him to take scheduled delivery tomorrow, and could be up to 2 weeks from now: Mid Range waiting room Submit Final Payment THAT exact scenario is...

Shady was probably a bad word choice on my part. Shady implies they're up to something. I don't believe that. It's more that they're increasing the likelihood of customer anxiety by introducing a new option and then just....not producing them. At all. If I saw evidence of even a few others...

No, yeah, I get where you were coming from. I was just attempting to show you that I don't think it's a choice based on scarcity of materials. No doubt they would prioritize those higher margin cars if needed (and with good cause), but opening white interiors up for MR and recently promising...

I ordered a LR on 10/15/18, but switched to a MR on 10/19 when it was announced as 6-10 weeks delivery with more than 10 weeks to go in the year. Just a few days ago the CEO promised that cars ordered still in the future will be delivered by year end. They market the price of the car most...

Congrats! Go update the tracking spreadsheet if you have 5 minutes. What color interior?

Then why start offering it when they unveiled the MR? They have to have some idea how many they can source by the end of the year? The great thing about having the tracking spreadsheet is we don't have to speculate. The overall take rate for white interiors among AWD/P orders is 22.8%. Among...

I have to believe that he's receiving one of the first few test vehicles they produced shortly after announcing the MR. Says nothing about when they'll start batching the rest of the white interiors, as it's been weeks since he received his VIN. What's maddening is that he ordered the same...

I reiterate that it IS shady, because of the complete lack of communication in the month since. I don't believe they're trying to screw us out of the tax credit or anything (because there's no benefit to them in doing that), but I DO believe that they believe in their own brand strength so much...

I'm just going by the fact that only one person has reported a delivery date with a white interior MR on the Teslike tracking spreadsheet, and 86 people have reported them for black interiors. I'm assuming the one who reported his date ( @Pbbjr ) is receiving one of the initial test build...

Sooooo shady for them to not disclose up front that white interiors would not be available on the same timeline as black. If it would have said "white interior may add up to 3 weeks to delivery timeline", I would have passed on it. Hope their couple hundred dollars of margin on those is worth...

Word. I'm not even hoping for MY 10/19 ordered white interior delivery date at this point, just ANY (other than @Pbbjr 's flukey, test batch car) to start showing up...

I ordered a LR on 10/15, changed it to MR via email at 1am on 10/19, then forced the change myself via backdoor edit link at 10am. So if I'd have stuck to LR I would have definitely gotten a delivery date by now. If I wouldn't have went white seats (the main reason we decided to change, trading...

What color interior?

No, obviously white on white is happening right now!

The only (polite) request I would have, would be for you to repeat ivan's 0-60 test at 90-100% charge so I could break it down frame by frame again to ascertain how much his test was effected by the depleted battery. You both have 18" wheels according to the spreadsheet, so the 19" sport wheel...

2.607 0-30mph

So I did my best to time the 0-60 run @ivan801 so graciously posted down to the millisecond. I recorded his video with my phone, then used Android's video editor to trim the clip to the precise frame when the 0 turns to 1 to the frame where it turns from 59-60. Then I opened the file in MPC-HC...

Hey buddy, did you take delivery Wednesday? If so, care to post a full-charge 0-60 run for us? How about you, @ivan801 ? We've left you alone with your baby for several days, give us something! :)

We configured the exact same car on the same date, and I'm in Indiana, but I assume your April 1 is 2016, while my April 26 is 2018 lol Just so excited to see the first white interior VIN! Gives me great hope for delivery by year end!

Don't think the order date you listed is correct...?

I don't remember eve seeing that as an option! If I did select it, I certainly didn't mean to, as I never served! One more question for when my ISA reaches out...

Noticed a change in my account just now, but not the change I would expect. Would just love to know what triggers weirdness like this:

By itself, no it doesn't. I've had all check marks completed and hit Submit button 10 days ago (ordered 10/19), and still no app access or referral code on site for me (those two things seem to be linked?). Backdoor edit link stopped working the same day I got service to convert my order from...

My only concern was with the titling of the vehicle when the credit union is going to be a lienholder and in first position on the title until it's paid off. Certainly that has to affect the paperwork on Tesla's end, no? Cash purchase means you're the only one on title. I'm sure it's fixable...

Same here. In my obsession to try and make sure that absolutely NOTHING on my side would delay this even a day and fully put the ball in their court, I called the 888 number to correct my financing option since only Cash and Tesla financing showed on the page when I configured. They brushed me...

He replied to a comment on the video confirming it's the MR. Still seems pretty damn fast! EDIT: He's slow rolling at about 15 before he punches it, but I timed it at sub 3.0 to 60mph (just on my smartphone with stopwatch split screened) from 15-60 a few times in a row. So assuming it doesn't...

First of all, congrats. We're all insanely jealous! You should know by being a member of this forum that we were going to all crowd around you and ask endless questions! lol Any chance you can do a rudimentary 0-60 test video for us? Just want to see it in person and switch to AWD if it looks...

Very interesting discussion on batteries. Thanks guys! One question, does "stop-and-go" city traffic affect range in the same way it does in ICE cars? I see from the chart that driving 25mph nonstop would produce the best range, but does accelerating the car to city speeds of 25-45 make the...

They have the same VIN reported as @in the arena did... Same delivery date too. Typo?

It's a way to edit your order if your order button has gone away (happens right away when you choose Cash as payment method when you configure). From a ton of other comments, it stops leading to the configurator when your car starts being manufactured, usually 24-72 hours before delivery date...

My backdoor edit link stopped working today(!) Any of you with MR orders received a VIN/Delivery Email/ISA commination yet?

I wondered about the bank fraud issues. Not that they'd bother to prosecute anyone who didn't actually rip them off of money, but yeah... Also wondered about using a program called Dancers Over 40 to apply for a loan as a 36 year old. lol

He got an instant delivery date for a MR order?!? Anyone else with an MR order have a date or VIN yet? I called service to have my pickup location changed from Indy to Fremont to "guarantee" my Friday morning MR order (switched from 10/15 LR order) is delivered by the end of the year and we...

I'm hoping so. When I talked to service line on Monday evening sorrysh after they unveiled the MR, the guy on the line said it should be no problem to change it now since I didn't have a VIN or delivery specialist assigned yet. YMMV, so maybe you'll want to call service yourself and record the...

Here's the backdoor edit link: Tesla SSO – Login (replace the Xs with your reservation #s

Just researched the full tax implications. Would cost me an extra $1,400 in sales tax, plus plane tickets ($400-$500) for my GF and I and 2 hotels on the way home ($200). Supercharing would be completely free now that they're giving MR buyers 6 months free(!), but now we're looking at $2,100 in...

We're in almost the same boat! I reserved my black, aero, EAP LR in the wee hours Monday morning and was happy as a clam to get it in a month. Then Elon tweeted. So after talking to support shortly after it was announced, I converted it to a pearl white, white interior, 19" sport wheels MR...
