Nobody knows for sure, but many people speculate that within a given geographic area, all owners will be ahead of non-owners, even if the owners reserved quite late and the non-owners have an early reservation. But this is still largely speculation and Tesla does not publicly talk about their algorithm for determining this. (And it seems that very few people -- or perhaps even nobody -- inside Tesla actually knows the answer... I think to a certain extent they're taking it one day at a time in there.)

I noticed today that my dates got changed from Jan 18 - Mar 18 to Dec 17 - Feb 18 for the premium version. The standard version still says Early 2018. I am sure that I am not getting it in Dec 17 though

Sounds like they did the customer-facing line-skip update to make people stop complaining that they aren't getting confirmations that they get to skip the line.
I just checked my Delivery Estimator and I too see a change as of this morning!
First Production has been changed from May-July to December-February.
Standard Battery - no change, still Mid 2018.
The AWD has changed from 2019 to August-October 2018!

Mine updated as well!
Now showing Dec 2017 - Feb 2018 availability for first production!
and Dual Motor Aug-Oct instead of Oct-Dec.
Oh man.... holding out for AWD is going to be way too hard......
Very cool. Your new dates are my current dates. I haven't taken delivery of my CPO S yet, so I can't get a bump. Even if I had.....I'm holding out for Performance now. Waiting for next fall will be rough, but now I have an S to distract me. It's just a very expensive fidget spinner for grownups!
Mine also updated, finally! Went from Apr-Jun 2018 to Dec-Feb 2018 for first production, in line with what other people are seeing. I'm an East coast owner with 1/3/2017 reservation date.
Now, I need something else to complain about... How about the accuracy of the estimates? Yeah, that's an easy target. I mean, obviously they're not delivering my M3 in December... what a complete screw-up.

Woke up to schedule update. Same now as cbutters--December/February; Mid-2018; August/October 2018. When we placed our order in showroom the computers didn't pick us up as a current owner although same email used. Got straight across the board dates in I think Late 2019. Told it would be corrected to reflect ownership and we'd see update. Nothing til now. Hoped with these first batch of deliveries to previous owners just about ready for delivery the system would update us. Need to have my 2001 ICE make it until delivery of the 3 and wondering if it will make another summer to get the AWD/SAS. Don't want to put any more $s into it at this point. Ah decisions. Hoping to get a test drive before our invite shows up. I love our S with AWD and SAS (lots of in town/ parking lot speed bumps here and incline to our garage) and wondering how different it would be without.
I honestly suspect the cars are getting produced faster than media thinks.

Based on all these updates and assuming that majority of current owners are slated for the first quarter availability of each configuration, I guess we can make the following conclusions about the Model 3 production schedule:
1. The Model 3 production is truly ramping up to the levels sufficient to supply cars to all (or most) existing Tesla owners, reservation holders in the next 2-3 months.
2. The AWD production is currently slated to ramp up by August. (Or as early as June for some.)
3. There is some uncertainty about when the Standard Battery configuration will become available (sometime in Mid 2018, or earlier, but no specific 3-month window).

My delivery estimate for AWD is currently June - August 2018 so I think they'd have to start production before August. Previously, it was May - July 2018.
My delivery estimate for Standard Battery has changed to Early 2018.
Yeah. I'd have to look back but previously it was January - March 2018 (or maybe February - April 2018). Now it's just Early 2018.
