Are you in PA, and have you been able to order yet?

Woowoo, my dad configured his car (we did it on my account) on Feb 3rd. I logged in today and we've got a VIN.

He'll be taking delivery in Richmond, VA of VIN # 6221 at a date to be determined. His first "nice" car, super excited for him.

No Model 3 and no beer make @SabrToothSqrl go crazy!

I configured on January 17th, and was scheduled to pick up the car today — would have been 1 day short of 4 weeks. I got the call on February 5th.

Unfortunately, got a call this morning (delivery day) that the car did not pass final inspection, and a part will need to be ordered with no ETA on when the part will come, when the car can be scheduled to be repaired, or when a delivery can be rescheduled. Pretty bummed. Hurried up to arrange financing, got the trade-in appraised, listed the car on eBay, switched my winter tires off for summers (for more trade in value) over the past week to make it to today, and now the waiting continues!

I don’t know how many more days my gas tank will last — I thought I had bought gas for a car I owned for the last time!

Glad to see this from you...because I just got an email about configuring the order I put in on Jan 3rd, OF THIS YEAR. I didn't want to post it here for fear you'd come on over to Havertown and murder me to death.

For those who live in PA... and want to know...

Wait, wait, you got the email last week and get the delivery today? The whole process took one week? Other people have reported 3-4 weeks.

Anyone else getting the car within one week?

To death you say...? lol... nah... just annoy you to death for a test drive

You raise an interesting point. I'm rather jealous of "ALL THE CAR" you get at this price point.

If I order a 2nd model 3, like, RIGHT NOW... would I also go to the front of the line, being an owner?

I mean, for $50k AND rebate the 3 is a steal of car... Although I'd wait for AWD...

And, TBH I prefer SUVs...

Anecdotal posts from others actually point to YES! (This would be the case.)

 

[SabrToothSqrl]

How long until they call about my trade in?
Where will I see the VIN?

Thanx!

Right when you log into your MyTesla account, instead of RN# next to the picture of your Model 3, it will show a VIN. When you click Manage, it shows under the reservation number. For me, after the car was assigned a transporter I got a call from a Las Vegas #. They start the ball rolling on financing and trade-in. Shortly after that I got a call from the Tesla store to schedule delivery (7-10 days out from the call).

They text you a link to fill out a condition form for the trade-in, then get you a number 24-48 hours later. You may consider trying CarMax (have to bring the car in), VROOM (similar to Tesla's appraisal), KBB Instant Cash Offer, or Carvana for some second (and third and fourth) offers on your trade-in. CarMax offered 2k above Tesla, and Tesla is matching it (with 6% sales tax benefit on trade). Carvana gave the best offer for me.

PA Model X owner here. Was planning to wait for the AWD Model 3 but this might be tempting if orders for existing owners are moving this quickly and to still get the full $7,500 fed tax credit.

Edit: scratch my earlier comment on the PA $1,750 state rebate which is now limited to <$50k cars.

PA rebate available until June 30,2018 BUT MSRP MUST BE below $50,000.

Thanks for the correction.

I don't have access to the configurator. So I guess it would be $60k? $49k +$1k paint option+$5k PUP +$5k EAP?

PUP already included in the $49,000 base price.

 

[SabrToothSqrl]

Order without EAP. To hit $49k. Get $1750 rebate. Pay $1k extra for EAP (over original 5k). stupid state.

Make out $750. Better I guess...

Is EAP taxed if you buy after purchase?

 

[Cirrus MS100D]

It’ll also be slightly less than $1750 because PA, in their infinite wisdom, taxes you on the EV “rebate” as income (lolz)

(I get it, but just make the amount of the rebate less rather than sending me the equivalent of a 1099!)
