Not that I'm aware of. SA told me it's coming mid-December, so unless it goes past that, or I see other SoCal folks getting their M3 before me, I'm not really concerned. Not like there's anywhere to drive to at the moment.

I have a 3 on the way, and I sold the car it's replacing to CarMax already. It was a 2018 E class, and CarMax was thousands above everyone else, even the MB dealer. They were pleasant to deal with too.
Tesla's trade-in offer was a complete joke!
Team Paramus represent! I ordered on 10/27 and am picking up on 12/10 in Paramus. Last I heard my car was in Ohio... Tesla’s shipping is super slow.
Annoying for sure, and deceiving because trade quotes they give out will almost always expire before your car is ready to be delivered, allowing them to lowball. Unless and until Tesla changes their trade policy, I will not be going through this exercise again.
I ended up cancelling my Tesla trade in and went with Carvana. They offered me almost 2500 more than Tesla for my 2013 Prius C. Once I accepted the offer lasts for 2 weeks, so I figure I'll sell in 2 weeks, even if my Tesla isn't ready and be carless for a few days (I'm working from home anyway).
Anyway, if you wanna get out of the Tesla trade-in rat race I highly recommend Carvana.
I looked at Carvana. They were $2500 below Tesla. But base on my experience, maybe now I know how Tesla can quote higher. Vroom actually offered me $2000 more than Tesla did but I had to give up the car right away. I have 2 other cars but still, didn't want to do without my Model 3 for 2mos lol. Oh the quote is for my 2018 dual motor. Was gonna trade to a 2021. I will sleep on it for now and keep enjoying the car.

sold my car to carmax on monday as im still waiting for delivery (and a VIN)
been a single car home for a few days but it works out since wife does distance "teaching" and kids are zooming too
but man....even though her car sat for nearly 9 months in the garage (and they never leave the house anyways), it feels weird going to work daily knowing they may need a car at any moment
If you wouldn’t mind, could you tell me how close was Carvana offer to KBB?
Tired of being patient so I asked what the ETA to the Kansas City SC is. December 15th. Then they have to prep and send to OKC for home delivery. I thought it would be a little quicker since I got my VIN on Nov 24th. Oh well.
Timeline recap:
Oct 22 Ordered - Model 3 LR AWD, Aeros Red w/Black Interior
Nov 10 Rec'd text: delivery update 2-5 weeks from today
Nov 24 VIN rec'd & payment requested
Dec 3 Req ETA to Kansas City Service Center - Dec 15th
Dec 15th arrive KC SC?
Dec xx? Home Delivery.

Not at all! It was the very high end of the trade in "green' range. YMMV, but part of my valuation was, I think, about a +$2000 they earmarked as "local market value" (I'm in Austin, TX). From what I've been hearing, used car demand is high, so I might have just gotten lucky.

I took the same route too with entertaining the idea of trading my Mustang GT to Tesla and of course the offer was well below trade value. I tried Carvana, Carmax, etc. and they all came in around the same at $2,500 more than Tesla. I opted instead to let it soak on Facebook Marketplace while I waited and it was gone in less than a week. I ended up getting about 5k more than what Tesla offered.
