My understanding is if it stopped working it means you have entered production.

So I'm just guessing here, @aus1ander, but I may have found, buried in your account page, the field indicating if your car is in production yet ( "isProduction":true ):

For instructions on how to check yours, see my earlier post.
 
Quick update:

Took delivery of my Model 3 AWD Obsidian Black Metallic yesterday, Monday August 27th, in Bellevue, WA (NE 20th St.) after being rescheduled from Friday, August 24th due to "logistics" issues. Anyone interested in my timeline, my original post is here earlier in this thread. I won't go into much details since I'll probably do a longer write-up after a full week with the vehicle but my inspection went well enough that I accepted delivery. But if anyone has any specific questions, feel free to ask away.

Otherwise, suffice to say, extremely pleased with the vehicle. I'm currently in Vancouver/Richmond, B.C. with the vehicle for the rest of the week. Plenty of free J1772 stations around to keep the battery topped off but did hit a couple Superchargers along I-5 (WA) and Tsawwassen (BC) just to get a feel for how Supercharging works even though it's not free.

Anyway, here are a few pictures.

Never saw 120 kW during charging, but 119 kW during "bulk" is good enough for me I guess...
I'm kidding! 120 kW vs 119 kW is obviously marginal. ;)

I too ordered my car 3-17, conf 6-18, Ordered obsidian black black interior 18 inch wheels all wheel drive haven’t received anything from Tesla. When did you order your car originally I am in Portland Oregon

Free supercharging really adds nothing for me right now.
Because many folks get excited about free Supercharging (some for good reason, I guess!) I thought I'd do the quick math, and see what $1000 of Supercharging would buy me. (because yeah, I admit that I twitched a bit, wondering if I could pretend-justify the P due to the SC advantage).

But... no.

I think we have the highest cost of SC in California. $0.26 per kWh. I'll use that and assume just 4 miles per kWh. Each $1000 spent at a SC will give me ~15,000 miles. My guess is that I won't use 3,846 kWh's of Supercharging for the life of this car. Would I pay $1000 for unlimited SC use? Probably. And then you can be sure that I'd use it more than I *needed* it. But I won't be paying the P premium for that advantage (at least not for that advantage *alone*)

Pretty sure "isProduction" is if its a production vs development version of the web page. Its "isProduction" = true because this is the public webpage not their development version.

You might be right, and I thought the same, except that this field is buried in-between my geographic data, e.g. "Country", my reservation number, etc.

Anyone know for sure? Is "isProduction" a known web page variable?
 
My understanding is if it stopped working it means you have entered production.

Hoping this is true! Will post back if and when I hear from someone. These are my details as an update:

Reservation: January 2018
Configured: 6/27/2018
AWD non-P
Metallic Blue
Aero
White interior (changed to this from black on 8/26)
EAP
FSD
Minneapolis, MN (Eden Prairie service center)
Backdoor edit design URL not working: 8/31/2018
 
My Edit Design link disappeared this morning, so it seems Tesla should be contacting me for delivery soon.
Non-P AWD, red exterior, white interior, 19 inch wheels, EAP, and FSD
Early line waiter in CO, May 23rd order, July 23rd switched to white interior

I hope so! I've seen plenty of AWD non-p, white interior with the 18" wheels get deliveries, but not the 19s. I thought they would have prioritized the more profitable vehicle.
 
Plz don’t lose patience with me. I’m 68 years young, and waiting for my car. If I click on edit design, it won’t change anything, right? Then I put my reservation number in the spaces with all the xxx’s? Thx
Don't worry about it if you don't understand what they are asking for.
[https://www.tesla.com/teslaaccount/edit-design/RNXXXXXXXXX] hopefully this came out well.

Highlight and copy the https address up top and replace the x's with your RN number on your account. Don't include the brackets
