Ordering

One reads on these forums, as one does, of many complaints when a product or service doesn't meet up to reasonable expectations. That is the nature of online forums, which are necessarily heavily biased towards complaints and problems. It is the dissatisfied customer who has the greatest...

Hi, Order date - 10/08 Confirmed - 10/12 In transit - 12/8 Pick up reservation date 12/28 - Austin Del. Center. My DS believes (last spoke 12/11) could expect possible early delivery before XMAS. TBD.....

Realized I left out a very important step in the relationship progression example I used by way of intro post before last. When he lets you drive it. Hot ticket item. Tesla stocks rise as markets recognize PepsiCo in semi preorder driver seat. They've joined the queue with their 100 truck buy...

Situation- I got my email to configure Model 3 today. it says delivery expected in 4 weeks. The problem is, I don't really need another car right now, but I will need one in about 2 years. I can afford to buy the car with minimal financial pain, but my wife would be happier if I didn't...

I downloaded the Tax Bill Conference Agreement, and on page 568 of 1097 pages I found the following section. My take (as well as Bloomberg, Fortune, and CleanTechnica) on this is that the repeal of the $7,500 tax credit did not make it into the final conference agreement. Here below is the...

Today is a bittersweet day for me since I took delivery my Model 3 but this will also be my last post on TMC for reasons explained later. First, trip down memory lane: Late March 2016 I got in a line at 4am, with a bunch of crazy tesla fanboys like myself! So I was moderately high up the...

Thanks all you lucky %$#^$%#^ who already received your invites and posted it on the spreadsheet. I am so jealous. For those who have not posted, please take a minute if you can so the rest of us poor souls can dream about when we too can get our own 3. For those not yet invited, I've also...

notified pre thanksgiving assigned vin 1669 taken away within a day then told new vin in " few days" nothing to date.anybody else in la area like this or am I the 0nly one?

Just got my invite and was looking at the config page options for EAP vs FSD. On the Model S page there is a fairly extensive description of each that mentions opting in to FSD gets you access to all 8 cameras (eventually :rolleyes: ). So I was contemplating ordering the option on my 3 just...

I may have missed this but I know that currently there is only black interior and at some point will have white. What are the chances that Tesla will make cream/beige color, similar to MS, available? Or even gray, which would be my preference?

I thought most owners experienced roughly a week when their vehicles entered production until it cleared production. I received this...... "Your beautiful Tesla is being built! Looks like mid-December. As it progresses and clear I will keep you posted." ......from my DS on the 30th of...

Hello fellow owners, I'm looking to add a Model X to our fleet and I'd like to get some feedback from those who have been there/ done that. My daily driver is a MS 85D which we will be keeping. I do a lotta hiway travel so the range and supercharging for life is essential. I'd like to get...

What are others doing regarding ordering of the frunk and trunk cargo mats and other items (i.e. sunshade) in the Tesla store? Are you ordering now or waiting for your configuration email? My concern is Tesla's tendency to have items on back order. I haven't seen any pictures of new...

I travel a fair amount. When my much-awaited invite comes, I will know all my travel plans for the next few months, but apparently people are told when they order that delivery will be in "about 4 weeks" and then at some point they'll be notified "Your car is ready." Will Tesla be willing to...

I have decided to try to get a Tesla for my next car because where I live traffic is horrible not only that my car takes up so much gas. So I applied for a couple car loans and was denied. The reason why is because I don’t have any loan history for as much as I’m requesting which is $89k. The...

I am receiving my new Model S next Friday and cannot wait. I'll be checking everything out carefully and still need to get my wall charger installed in the garage. I have a 200 AMP panel and they want to add a 100 amp connection to it. I hope it doesn't overload. :) I plan to get the whole...

Tesla Model 3 production is increasing to 5,000 units per week, say suppliers

Hi All, I reserved my Model 3 at the Costa Mesa Store on 3/31 around 11AM. I am not a current Tesla owner so my delivery time frame is Dec 2017 - Feb 2018. Which I am thinking it's more like Feb Delivery if I am lucky. Due to my car situation, my current lease will be up in Feb and this...

Okay I was early invite. was given a VIN about 10 days ago I had it only for a day. then it was pulled from My tesla acct. was told via phone it was because it had to be delivered in marina del rey so they had assign new Vin would be a "few days" they can still give no idea when new vin will be...

Is it possible that individuals who reserved Model 3 online immediately after the reveal are getting priority over individuals who waited in line at Tesla stores to reserve Model 3 hours earlier? The latest episode of Talking Tesla (episode 116) indicates that this may be the case, as Robert...

Tesla allows the initial $2500 deposit to order your car to be put down using a credit card. Will they allow the remaining 10% I am not financing to be put on a credit card also?

Does Tesla take trade-ins that still have a loan balance?

Hello, I placed an inventory order on a model S and got the Motor Vehicle Purchase Agreement which shows the $1200 destination and doc fee. I ordered it online and went into the store to confirm that I didn't have to pay the delivery fee. The sales person said that the car is being shipped...

We're taking delivery of our Model S on Friday and before we did we wanted to make sure everything was in place. Most import to us was getting a 240V out to our garage. We live in a condo building in Chicago-proper and knew this was going to be expensive but the guys at Kapital did an...

Has anyone picked up their car from the new Fremont Delivery Center? This is the one on Fremont Avenue on the opposite side of the Freeway. DS told me that they are just opening now and that is where we are picking up our new X.

Has it happened yet? Do the floodgates open tomorrow (Wed)? Bonnie, is it you?

Is anyone on the verge of ordering interesting in overnight test drives? They gave me a few passes to give out, just PM me :) I actually did this and put in a reservation the next day.

does anyone have the same situation? My car is confirmed on Oct 16th, MS. But it still not yet in production. I asked DS in Nov, and he said that it should be in at the first week of Dec. Now he is saying there is no ETA. But he confirmed that it will be ready before Xmas. I am very anxious...

Given the recent delivery issues others have seen, I thought I'd tell you all about mine. We've already had the car about 10 weeks now and have taken a cross country trip in it. But that's ahead of the story. Living in Boise which happens to be almost exactly between the Salt Lake City and...

Hi, my delivery date for my new Model X is nearing closer and I really don't want a front license plate. Does anyone know if I need to request that with my DS or if the Model X just doesn't comes with the bracket or anything in the front, I live in the state of IL. If anyone has recently picked...

Just placed my order for a Model S 100D. Really happy to have done so, and couldn't have done it without all of the support and info available at TMC. February can't come quick enough!

Hello, We'll be taking delivery of our MX in a couple weeks. The folks from Tesla told me that there will be a front license bracket installed. From what I remember, the S has the bracket and X did not. Did something change recently?

Just curious for all Ontarians, on the date of delivery, do they give you a green plate? or we need to apply for it later?

First- its not my car - my bride has wanted a Tesla since 2012. I'm here to get and share info and experiences - we're not greenies or fanboys, we use the vehicle for the benefits it provides - mainly carpool lane access and the ability to avoid gas stations and then the cool factor for my...

I've been invited to configure, but we are delaying until white/light colored seats are available for Model 3. If you notice that they show up on the configurator, please post here, for those of us who are deferring for this option.

hi guys, I have a reservation from day 1, not yet invited to configure but probably soon. I have a Model X and even though I would like to keep my Model 3 reservation , a friend of mine is kinda desperate for me to transfer my reservation to him. I know that Tesla doesn't allow this directly, is...

I was wondering if anyone had any experience with this kind of situation. Was making my 1.5 hour trek to my Tesla location to pick up my brand new MS yesterday when I got an email about 30 minutes into the drive from my DS. He informed me that his service team found a defect in the driver door...

I reserved my inventory model X on Nov 30th. I’m picking it up at the end of this month. While I am very happy with the showroom discount, I’ve read that other people had luck getting the discount increased closer to delivery day because the car is now one month older. Is it common to ask for...

Curious if their are any new interior updates. Thanks

Hi, I was wondering if anyone in the bay area got their model 3 delivery within three weeks after configuration. I got the notice to configure mine and wonder if tesla can make delivery in before end of year in the bay area. Thank you

i put $2500 down when I ordered my car. I got my leasing paperwork today, and nowhere does it mention the $2500 I already put down. Will this be adjusted for in the final paperwork?

I placed my Model S custom order in late september and it is ready for delivery at SC in NJ, finally. Excited but since I am travelling, I can't pick it up till I come back which is two weeks away. Joined to thank everyone who contibutes here on the forum as you guys & girls have been great...

I was a day 1 (31st here in the US) reservation holder who waited in line at the Palo Alto Tesla store. Fully intended to get a Model 3 as the Model S seemed like a bit of overkill (size and $ wise). I would bide my time until Model 3 came to production. Then Tesla announced in March of this...

Just got a call from Tesla that they will be hosting a Year End Delivery event at the International Center in mississauga. Sounds like it should be a shin-dig. Then called my DS and my Tesla has arrived and is on the lot in oakville! Too bad I am traveling next week, or I could have picked it...

Starting on Monday? Found this on reddit: Our Non-Employee Maxed Out Model 3 is Delivering Monday!!! - VIN #2079 - it’s for my GF and she’s like a kid at Christmas! • r/teslamotors

I ordered an inventory 75D VIN 5YJSA1E24HF208689, manufactured in July 2017. When I looked up the view spec options on the car, I found that it has Gen 1 AP hardware. I thought all cars after October 2016 had Gen 2 hardware. Anybody have this experience? Here are the relevant options after...

Thought I would poll everyone to see what others are doing on maintenance plans and extended warranty options.

Are Model 3s "mode to order" like S and X? I think we've all presumed they will, but I'm not so sure. Is You You's car in "production" mode? I was just looking over my order agreement and it says, "Once you submit your completed order, we will locate a vehicle to match your Vehicle...

HELP! I just put a deposit down for a new 75RWD model S but the monthly price is coming in more than I had thought (tax wasn't included...) and now I'm seeing these posts and videos of people LOVING the 3. I still have a reservation from February (set date May-June 2018) and I'm seriously...
