They are realistic, be ready to wait. Process your order as cash, you can change it later if you want to finance. Don't do a trade-in until after you have a VIN, and don't otherwise sell your car if you need it before you are relatively close (a couple weeks or other manageable time to go without your car) to an average of 120 days from your order date.
Really sorry about your M3, that sucks.

So pretty sure I just snagged the Black LR inventory out of Vegas, its sitting in my account and all I need to do is setup financing which I figure I'll do once the banks are open and what not, and then also contact my SA.
VIN on the inventory is 263XXX
EDD on that is 9/10-9/14. I haven't cancelled my other order yet just due to what @dnstommy is currently going through on his inventory order

It's interesting potholes keep coming into the equation. I was just reading an article last night about Dyson's $700m investment in developing a car. A design element they considered was potholes and they equipped standard 24" (larger rather than smaller) wheels specifically to deal with them:
The inside story of Dyson’s $700 million quest to design an electric car
In an excerpt from his new book, James Dyson shares the many twists and turns that went into his company’s ultimately failed attempt at bringing the high-end N526 EV to market.
Would anyone like to be my referrer? I didn't and still don't know anyone with a Tesla besides all of you on this forum, so I never entered anyone's code on my account. I've heard you can do it afterwards through an SA, so I would be able to update it after I get my VIN

i won’t bug you but if you want my referral link, gladly share in a message. Just let me know.
don't do this. you have nothing to worry as you get closer to actual delivery they will remind you that your quote has expired and it will re-run. Unless you tanked on your credit between order date and delivery you have nothing to worry. DO NOT remove financing unless you are certain about cash approach.. I am saying basis the exact experience as yours. remember most finance quotes are valid for at max 60 days. with Tesla everyone knows delays are inevitable.

My credit union gave me a lot of flack for having my 3 registered to both of us but the loan in my name only. I eventually convinced them to let me but it required a lot of escalation.
They definitely honored the non-car prizes. I have earned carry on luggage, a weekender bag (that I traded someone for a Kid's Model S), a jacket, and some super sweet arachnid wheels (Which I promptly sold. See: potholes above.) But the Roadster? We'll see...
I also got to take the 3, which does not have free/unlimited supercharging to South Dakota and back - 4,200 miles - for $0 in charging thanks to referral credits.

OD 7/23 LR5 Blu/Blk 19” No tow/FSD EDD 11/29
Same as you. OD 7/23 and went into generic January on Saturday. Checked last night and was changed to 11/15-12/5. The midpoint of that range is about four months.
I second this. I’m still waiting, but my SA forwarded this very concern to Tesla Finance. They responded directly to me and said that my application would automatically re run when delivery of the MY was scheduled.
Now, when we ordered our M3 (same time as the MY), we weren’t sure when we wanted to take delivery and I didn’t want multiple pending loan apps. That was set up as cash and then changed to financing once we were certain the M3 would arrive first - the SAs seem to be pretty good at knowing how that side works from our experience.

I’m new to Tesla and haven’t referred anyone yet, so I’ll be your referrer! See signature for code.

I'll be that Dyson car really sucks.
ok, I'll see myself out.
This is similar to mountain bikes these days having 29" wheels instead of the 26" we've been used to forever. 29ers started on downhill bikes because the longer contact area smoothly rolled over the trail, roots, divots, etc. People loved the ride so much that they've becoming standard on all mountain bikes. They do ride incredibly smooth.It's interesting potholes keep coming into the equation. I was just reading an article last night about Dyson's $700m investment in developing a car.

Weight, width, cost, and regulations are probably all at play hindering such adoption for cars.
