Configuration invite for Non-Day 1 Reservations

[myblubu]

I went ahead and ordered a set of Lloyd’s Rubber-tite All-Weather mats for it last night, so they should be here well before the car and will give me time to ‘air’ them out before the car arrives. They are great mats - I do like the Weathertechs better, but since they aren’t available yet, I wanted something in the meantime. I used the Lloyds in my Model X until the Tesla Weathertechs were available and they worked great, other than the initial ‘smell’ (I believe someone said it was ‘out gassing’ of the new rubber material. But I left them outside on the patio for a couple weeks and then they were fine after that.) Perfect fit. So figured I would use these until the Tesla mats are available.

Is there evidence that non-owners have been invited? Maybe I missed it.

I'm not sure what you're talking about. Straight from the article you reference:

Over the past two days, Electrek has received reports of Model 3 reservation holders who reserved after the first day and they are now able to configure their vehicles.

With this said, it appears to still be limited to current Tesla owners.

There is ZERO evidence that any non-employee/non-owner has been able to configure.

I own an S and X getting 3 for my daughter
I assume you have waited 2 years - what’s a few more months? The waits worth it!

Looks like Telsa opened the floodgate. Just checked, I can start configuring now. Owner in California but only reserved in May 2017. My estimate was Nov - Jan.

 

[NoVADrew]

Any owners with Day 1 reservations that have not been invited yet? (and checked their account to be sure)

mod note: moved some stuff away to investors section and snippiness.

Interesting - I just received the invitation email this morning even though I already ordered on 1/24!

Maybe they intentionally give to those who check their account 10 times a day a chance to configure couple of days early compared to the other invitees from the same batch? So much happiness from the accidental configurator find! And doesn't cost them much.

LOL - I admit, it was a nice surprise, I wasn’t even logging in to check my status, so it was a pleasant surprise

Update: Just got assigned VIN 54XX. Noticed on my tesla account a few minutes ago about 8pm eastern time. The last time I checked the account was about 6pm prior to that and it still showed the reservation number at that time.

To my immense surprise, since I ordered on day two (owner in Spokane, WA) I got the invite email on January 25. Since I'm out of town, I waited until today to place my order, so as to be sure of being at home when the car is delivered. Blue, standard wheels, EAP but not AP, because I don't think AP will be available soon enough to justify paying for it now.

Note: The invite email said I should email them with questions. I emailed and asked about ordering right away, since I was out out of town. I never got a replay to that email.

I gave one more thought to waiting for all-wheel drive, which they said will be available this spring. But that would again place me behind owners who reserved on day one. If I like the car enough, and decide that I really want AWD, I'll trade up in a couple of years.

Congrats on the order!

Let us know when you get assigned a VIN. I saw that another member who ordered Blue with Aeros just got assigned a VIN in the 54XX range also.

I saw you there! I pulled in to charge as you pulled out. Just a few minutes too late...

They also had a Midnight Silver one covered waiting for delivery.
