Hi all....new member... recently ordered a P3D+

[Barracuda-P3D]

I ordered my vehicle on Nov 22.

Looking forward to it but I will be pretty busy preparing my current car for sale.

I am getting a Midnight Silver Performance with the new Dark Gray Performance wheels and intend on wrapping the car with PPG Stealth.


This is a Canadian car, being delivered to Vancouver for me.

I have a few questions and concerns...

First, how accurate is the delivery estimates? I have not heard great things about it.

From what I've been told, once you have a VIN , the timetable should become more accurate?

Is there still a backlog for the rear spoiler?

This is my biggest concern, as I wish to wrap the car as soon as I pick it up.

Happy to be joining the Tesla community. My last car had a 6.2 litre V8....

Welcome!

I ordered a white/black performance with FSD on 10/14 when the website was still showing delivery within 2 weeks. I received a call 10/18 from an SA in Toronto saying the delivery would be much closer to mid-December. I then received an email 11/05 saying my car was in Calgary and would be delivered to Saskatoon 11/08. I happened to be away that week and wasn't completely ready for the car since I was now planning for a December delivery so I asked if they could pass it along to someone else. They seemed fine with it, removed the VIN from my account, and now I'm back to waiting for a mid-December delivery - I think - I no longer have any reference in my account to when the car might arrive.

I have seen a couple performance models delivered this fall and they had the spoilers already installed so I assume the backlog has disappeared.

As I was typing this, I received an automated text reminder from Tesla to complete all the tasks in my account to "get priority vehicle matching" - must be getting close!

You really should not make mods to the car until you have had it and driven it around fro a week or so. If you later want to return/exchange it for some reason Tesla will not comp you for the mods and may require you remove them before returning it.

what are some problems that I should be aware of for the 7 day return policy.. In term of driving dynamics, I have no complaints from my test drive

Got that same text today. Any word on if it means anything useful? Got my heart racing thinking that my car would be ready soon, but my account page doesn't have any new info. Still no vin.

Is your installer planning on wrapping around the spoiler or removing the spoiler to completely wrap the trunk lid ?

Same!! I just received that text today. I've also ordered a Performance but it is white on white so maybe the Canadian orders are getting a move on now? FYI I ordered mine on Nov. 14 and was told that it would arrive mid-December as well... Also i noticed estimated delivery on their website is now 2-4 weeks.

Definitely going to get some snow tires ready this black Friday to put onto the car right away after delivery. It will probably snow on our delivery day and Pilot Sport 4S in the snow would be quite the interesting first drive home.

I ordered a SR+ black color, everything else as it comes in Vancouver.

Was told by the SA it would be 5-9 weeks.

My friend ordered a white on 10/30 and no word yet. Hoping to get it some before the end of the year.

Don’t do it take the rims with the tires with you.

According to them if the spoiler was attached they'll remove it and reattach it after the rock is put on

Yes. You waited too long. You can only edit within a short period of time.
