AWD delivery thread

[jgs]

In other-words, 2017 , 2018 and 2019 M3's are all one and the same till Tesla do a refresh/face lift of some kind which I believe they did to Model S once so far in several years with the nose design.

Yes, that is right, except actually they rev the Model S (and I’m sure other models) all the time, a recent example being the new generation of center display.

However, I believe for purposes of insurance, labeling on vendor sites like TireRack etc., they need to have an official model year designation.

As far as I know, it’s just “the year in which the car was built” (or maybe delivered), nothing more than that. Every now and then this is slightly problematic, e.g. there’s different roof rack mounting hardware for Model S built summer 2015 and later than there is for ones built earlier, so “2015 Model S” isn’t enough info. But mostly, I like the practice.

With all this paint drama, I'm now wondering when they'll ever get to build my config.
AWD, Red, Sport, NO EAP

I get the sense they will now knock out all OB and MS to clear those lines and that will push every other color cofig out.
Red appears to be a giant bottleneck and suggests to me that I'm going to get hosed if I think I'll see delivery before anytime earlier than November.

The person on Monday said I’d hear something or see a change in the website in 72 hours... 4 days later and nada

I called in August and a young lady said my delivery advisor was named Eric and I’d be hearing from him soon

Then at the beginning of September a young man said I had a delivery advisor named Lauren.

Sometimes I wonder if these guys spin a wheel when we call them and give us random information.. it’s like everyone is just making it up as they go

Hi. Stop calling

If the Troy tracker numbers are any good.. P/P+ is pretty much done and the few waiting should hear soon worst case by Oct 1st once the Q3 madness is over in 15 days.. AWD - we are 60-75% and not too many new sales per the tracker.. so the folks like us who are still waiting will keep the lines busy between now and mid-Oct to get all delivered before end of Oct. As we all know RWD is off the shelf product now for the most part. There should be no one waiting more than 2 weeks after end of Oct is my guess ..off-course with some outliers and exceptions as always (like Texas issues). Data doesn't lie is my hope and Tesla's crazy actions (jacking up price.. sending request to buy RWD with free SC etc) proves the backlog is almost empty. Remember, most part of last two weeks of Sept production won't get delivered and going to carry over into Oct (almost 10,000 M3's) which will bring one to our driveway soon.

oh snap, we have movement... Texas buyer fyi-special hoops

ordered/configured with no reservation 7/29/2018
orig config-LR-awd-black-prem black-no EAP
9/15/18 change to DBM-white interior
9/16/2018 asked for financing info on account page

Wow, so your account page changed today, as in Sunday? I was just assuming nothing would change on a Sunday, but maybe they are working 7 days a week right now. Unless maybe you didn’t check it at all yesterday and just saw the change for the first time today. But what are the odds of that!!!

Back when I was doing my financing, emails went back and forth with a chap in their finance department in Fremont sat and sun. He said they were a tad behind lol

A car built in 2018 but purchased/delivered in 2019 is still a 2018 car.

If I am not mistaken, earlier today someone said..begins with snap!, they just configured (initial contact) a MCR and have a provide financing / trade-in prompt. I'd put money on you'll get yours in Oct. (month 2 of your 3 month window) just as Tesla advised).

I've been seeing a lot of vin#s in the 100XXX lately. I've also read conflicting things about if they go in order. Since mine is 69XXX instead of 100XXX should I read into that at all?

I picked up my AWD with a VIN very close to yours last Wednesday. Build date was August 2018.

Hmmm. Last I read was AWD was only about 33% through September with existing delivery appointments

Hi. Stop calling

When did you get your VIN assigned? Or when did you notice it on your account? Your delivery is 2 days before mine and I have no VIN, no car assigned, and no contact from Delivery Specialist.

 

[tvisdog]

My delivery is scheduled for Sept. 29 and my ISA has assured me that it's still on schedule. However, my edit URL still works which makes me think they haven't built the car yet.

Anyone else with deliveries in the next 2 weeks with working edit links/backdoor edit URLs?

 

[Tricia]

Should my tesla app on my phone have the same log in info as my tesla account at tesla.com?

My delivery is the 26th. No vin, no backdoor anything . Just finance stuff and delivery info.

 

[sskj]

Same here, it still works.

Hi. Stop calling

When I Call the service center, I try to be as kind as possible. I tell them I know your busy but if you could please help me understand the process, l will better understand . I usually get lots of help and when my tone is nice, their tone back to me is pleasant

Eight days away for me and I still ha e an edit link. It does make me a bit nervous...

 

[the_danimal]

Challenge: see how many super chargers you can hit in one day..stay at motel and do return trip next day. Just a thought. I went to college in Ohio, I've already got that trip (from CT) locked and loaded. Oh...for @the_danimal as we spent so much time in NoVa..got that one locked and loaded too...is Tortilla Factory still there?

Sadly, it closed...
