Am I the only one getting the car so quickly?

[RayK]

My story is in my .sig; 16 days from ordering to driving off the lot. I think configuring for MSM color helped a lot. I did not order EAP (and by definition, FSD), nor did I have a trade-in. Paid cash so no financing details to slow things down. I was back at the Fremont delivery center a couple of days ago and out of the 35 or so Model 3s, there were only a couple that were white and red cars.

I have a friend who reserved in June of THIS year, configured a couple of weeks ago, and was just told he can pick it up. Silver, RWD, PUP. aero.

Non-owner and non-day1(day 2...), received the invite on 06/27 and configured the same day, received an email from sales on 06/29, VIN assigned and delivery scheduled on 07/02 and I got my car on 07/08 in Fremont, CA.

Although I'm very happy about the quick process, I felt this is a little bit too fast. Anyone else had same experience? One of my friends who placed reservation on day1 is still waiting for the sales email. The only difference is he ordered white color but mine is grey.

I was also offered 07/08 delivery, but had to defer it to next week.

Color makes all the difference ... nothing else

Have to agree color does make a huge difference. Recently it seemed without sport wheels was faster. The one thing that has remained the most consistent was Silver which was in most cases the “instant vin”.

Amen, re-color! Obsidian black selector here--not sure any of those have yet been delivered, unfortunately...

Ordered our second M3 on 6/30/18 at around 8:50pm as a last minute decision before the new data changes went into place. Got an from the ISA that our model 3 was on its way to the delivery center on 7/11 and picking it up on Tuesday.

We ordered White with Aero wheels.

Almost there. April 1, 2016 morning online reservation, 6/27 invite to configure and configured White, RWD, Aero, no EAP.

7/15 Sunday night: Just flipped the no-trade-in option to trade-in and got a new dialog box that wanted me to confirm my pre-filled phone number to have Tesla text me the info about the trade-in self evaluation. When I clicked through, there was no edit link to be found (that's new for today) and there was an accompanying message that said if I wanted to switch back to no trade-in I'd have to talk to my ISA, who has not called yet.

Dear ISA:
Call me (call me) on the line
Call me, call me any, anytime
Call me (call me) my love
You can call me any day or night
Call me

Config: Jun 29 2018

installing NEMA outlet..Selling the old car....thinking about wrap, tint, chrome delete....know things to check during delivery....
how to do homelink setup... worry about it breaks on my way home from delivery center....how much should I charge my car....
should i lower the tire pressure from 45 to 42 and lower...sunshade, floormat...CAV Decals, CA Rebate....
​

Still feel like I am missing something.....Oh I know....my $$$......
