First possible model 3 in Seattle WA!

[Keith909man]

Took my car into service this morning at Seattle’s service center when I very surprisingly ran into a model 3! By my understanding, there haven’t been any sightings or deliveries in the Seattle area so am I the first ever to see one here?? Anyways, l didn’t know where to enter for service drop off so I kinda just walked in from the back area where the model 3 was located.

A Tesla employee came up to me and ask may I help you? Told him here for service and he almost literally chased me away before I was able to get one picture. He wouldn’t answer any of my questions about the M3 and kept steering the conversation back to the service of my car. I get my loaner car and a different Tesla employee came up to me and says, “I saw that you got to see the model 3 back there” I then say, yes! Is that a show room model? He says no, it’s a customers so if you could just delete any photos I may have taken... so out of respect... for the Tesla fan Community, I didn’t lol.. I then ask if I could check it out for a min and he says no lol.

Welcome to Seattle model 3!

Hi Keith! Unfortunately you are not the first to spot the model 3 although I might be ; ) There is a silver one I discovered about 3 weeks ago in the northeast end of town. Out of respect for the owner, I agreed not to photograph it or mention the location. I must say it looks great in silver. Unfortunately, no idea when we will see them in the showroom as I wait to order mine.

He asked you to delete, but you still went ahead and posted it here?

There's also a black one with 18" wheels (unlike the one in the picture) that a local employee has been showing at several locations. (None that I have been able to make, but I did see a picture of the car and about 30 people that saw it in Eastgate).

My wife saw a gray one at the Bellevue delivery center about 2 weeks ago.

Saw a blue one at Bellevue delivery center a few weeks ago. I don’t get the “no photo/video of car”. It’s not some type of super secret prototype. There are a ton of detailed vids on YouTube.

Any new sightings? Sure wish one of the owners would hold a meet-and-greet (I'll bring Chipotle)!

If you bring the burritos, I'll bring the chips and guac! Apparently there was a meet and greet in Bellevue on Saturday (seen on reddit), but it was over before I heard about it.

We'll get move views sooner than anywhere outside Cali thanks to being west coast and having SpaceX here.... Just a bit more patience, guys.

There are (at least) a couple blue ones in Redmond right now. I saw them both on the same day a week ago (11/28).

Totally forgot that SpaceX is in Redmond!

Spotted a black one at the Bellevue service center just before Thanksgiving.

Update:
Went to pick up my Tesla from service in Seattle today and ended up intruding on a gray Model 3 delivery! Lol that was super cool to see a live delivery and seeing the Tesla employee going over the details with the owners. Perfect timing for my service! (Blue model S is mine )
