2021 MYP+ 2023 M3LR + 2024 M3P in Grey + Whife
Pretty close…..but there are a few additional steps I took. They included stomping my feet, rolling my eyes, and complaining ENDLESSLY to my husband. And only then did my VIN magically appear.

And just to show how dates and information change all the time, I just got a text with: “we look forward to delivering your Model Y. Great news! Your Model Y is onsite and ready for delivery this week!”
I replied with “I can be there in 30”

Things move incredibly fast…they sent it to the Serramonte Delivery Center, which is actually more convenient than Fremont. Picking up this afternoon!I replied with “I can be there in 30”
I managed to click fast enough! The VIN is 237xxx, does this include HEPA?It's available again...but I couldn't even click buy fast enough..kept taking me back to the main page..and no SA to helptransfer my order over.

And I am totally jelly at the moment. Would have definitely flown up north to just drive it back down the coast.
I constantly refresh the inventory and toggle around the zip code and luckily found one! Just chatted with the SA and she's happy to transfer the referral code to the new order for me.

What would the price be: the one with your order date or the current price?
It sucks but it's the current price. So I have to pay $1000 more. I don't have a car at the moment so this is still cheaper than renting a car for 3 months more...
Crazy that there are new cars posting to Tesla's site when we're all clearly waiting. Refreshing the page viciously . . . congrats @johnnykwwang
Lots of people have set programs that search inventory for them - hard to compete with people that just get a notification when their spec comes up somewhere in the country. My order from 5/14 is $2500 under today’s price so doesn’t work for me…
Attached is an image of the sign at the DC in Stockton with the step-by-step directions. I like the simple steps on the sign.
Compare this to my previous new-car buying experience (Mazda CX9 2018) that took 2.5 hours to go through the needless paperwork with the guy with the flip book, and the Finance Guy, and the guy that works really hard for me to twist the manager's arm. I was paying cash, why do I need to talk to all of these guys? Then coming back for an additional 1 hour at pick-up. When I went to pick-up the Mazda, I did a quick walk-about to check the vehicle, but I couldn't open the back hatch. I asked the salesman to open the back but he couldn't either. "Well, we will look into it, you can pick it up tomorrow". Absolutely not. I stood there and waited while they grabbed a crew from the service department to find the problem. Seems that they hadn't attached an electrical harness cable when the vehicle came off of the delivery truck (unattached for safety purposes during transient. I ordered it from the factory so no one had driven it and it had just arrived at the dealership 3 days before). But this means that no one at the dealership had even bothered to inspect it for those 3 days. Same thing happened with my new 1992 Pontiac Bonneville -- at pick-up the salesman raved about how detailed of an inspection they had performed. I told him to his face that it was a complete lie. There was a gasket hanging out of the lock on the drivers side door -- I noticed it immediately because I had to unlock the door with the key. He ran out and looked at it. Came back in and didn't say a word...
Yes, getting a Tesla is frustrating. Just keep in mind that only the factory actually knows when our cars will be made. Elon must have some AI optimizing the production efficiency (instead of optimizing our emotions)
But this process is not nearly as frustrating as a car dealership. Deep breadth. Just don't sell your existing car until after your new Tesla is in your driveway.

Your sage advice and kind words are a little too lateAttached is an image of the sign at the DC in Stockton with the step-by-step directions. I like the simple steps on the sign.

I sold my car yesterday and want my Tesla naaaowwwww
Hehe. Jk. Great advice!
Where’s my car
MYLR5, white, black, induction 20” tow 4/3
Just speculating but I cannot stop thinking that these inventory cars are rejects. Might be totally wrong but if someone does not accept the car where does it go? My thoughts are these are the cars someone else didn’t want.
