    no apology needed at all (lol)... I have been a member of other forums where people shout "use search newb!" but you cant actually find anything using the search on their forum pages.

    they wont have any more information than you already read here, most likely. If those features are important to you, I suggest you just continue to read on TMC and check for when people actually post pictures of them being delivered to customers that way.

    You can try the salesperson, but they are likely to say something like "I havent gotten any information on that, ill get back to you" and not get back to you. Car salespeople are trained to sell whats "there now", and even though tesla salespeople are not "commissioned" they still function as salespeople.

    TMC and websites like it are usually way ahead of tesla front line employees on stuff like this.

    Do we anticipate this "new" model 3 will be more than current pricing? Im picking mine up in a week and would love the features, but if it's going to cost more it might make me feel better getting the "old" one.

    I spoke with my SA today regarding my order for NOV/DEC as he knows I want a 2021 VIN (I know everyones opinion on that) but he said "I will know your estimated date for 2021 in 7 days". It didn't click right away then I texted him back and asked if thats when the 2021's were slated to be coming out and he said "It will be a 2021 production but i don't know any changes yet"! Then i came home and saw this..

    I assume my delivery won't take place for at least 6-8 weeks, so it should be enough time to clear the existing inventory. I actually hope my sales rep is going to spill the beans and tell me when to place the order to make sure I will get the new version.

    This would be amazing. I’m just stalling to pull the trigger since I’m not driving much anyway. This would be worth the wait.

    just break all your windows on purpose then roll in to your nearest SC. They’ll hook you up.

    Did any website create a good looking render of the upcoming changes? If yes, please share.

    I think it actually sounds like a nice improvement. The piano black surface selection was a glaringly awful mistake. And all of the other changes sound like modest improvements as well.

    It almost looks like the screen might have an adjustable tilt similar to techforums screen based on the angle in the picture as well. That would be awesome to be able to adjust the screen position a bit more without a 3rd party product.

    Hmmm this might be the time to jump back into the pool, fingers crossed the crap doesn't happen again. " new double-paned glass " sounds... well quieter.

    This might seem like a random question but my SA told me my vehicle was manufactured on 9/12 and I told her I wanted the window sticker as a souvenir. She “thought” I meant the Monroney Sticker. I assume she didn’t lie to me and based on the door jamb and Monroney Sticker I know it was manufactured in September 2020. Does anyone know if these stickers showing the full manufacture date that are usually on the front drivers windshield are just thrown away by Tesla as part of dealer prep? Is it possible to get it after delivery?

    The top doesn’t slide down anymore, the middle compartment doesn’t flip it just slides, and they chromed it up..
