After rejection, it took four days to get a new VIN and delivery is at the end of this month. 251xxx, matrix.
That is super helpful. I am also trying to reject delivery even after the SA trying to scaring me.
My case is little bit different. Would u mind to take a quick look for me ? Thanks !
 
So at the centre now. Greeted with taking delivery outside in the rain. Not impressed. It has all the things that it’s supposed to have, including matrix lights. There’s about an inch of scratch on the inside of the door which they touched up. hood’s not centred which they don’t fix.
Am I crazy to think it’s a shitty touch up?

That’s a pretty crappy touchup job. You don’t sound happy. You should be ecstatic when buying a new car and it should make your heart sing …

You should be happy with your purchase. Tell the SA, "Please touch this up so it looks new from factory."
 
Just picked up M3P VIN 238XXX, build date 4/19, which was impacted by the charge port ECU shortage and sat on the lot for a spell. Projector headlights and UMC included.

An employee at that store (Richmond, VA) who seemed to be in on decision making told me they had received about 15 Model 3s with the reflector headlights - all of which were LR or RWD variants. I did a walk around the lot and the only reflector lights I saw were on the MYLR (which has always had them) and some pre-refresh M3s that probably belong to the staff, so those picking up there in the near future are probably in the clear.
