I really don't understand the method. I about fell over when I got the text... I was estimating third week in December delivery based on my location and google forum.
Looking at various posts, it is mostly black and midnight silver colors that received delivery dates or some sort of confirmation.
I ordered a Red one, and now have been thinking I should have ordered one of those basic colors. Red will be a long way to go since they are doing it in batches. Hoping I will get it this year.

It's clear that no one in CA is getting delivery dates; they are certainly concentrating on east coast. Still hope to get mine before years end.
I think we’re all just overly anxious. Hang tight with your order and wait to see what heroines over the next 2 weeks.
I’m happy for you, man! Enjoy that car!! I’d be ok with 2nd week in December for sure.
Not sure 3+ weeks of waiting with any updates is "overly anxious", but I get your point.
This is not a legacy car company, so I am pretty shocked at how little communication is provided by Tesla. I understand them not having a Domino's pizza tracker for my car, but you would think they would provide some milestone information.
LOL. Same here.. I just did "Unwatch" this thread to reduce my blood pressure a bit.
There is no signs of any delivery in Chicago area what so ever and I'm a non-reservation holder and I really feel the pain on waiting..
I just stop hitting the F5 key to refresh the Tesla account page.. Dont want to break it!

I'd do it now. Gives you time to have them make adjustments if necessary. I had them match carmax and the matching took 5ish days to show up on my account
I ordered same config except with EAP and I am in Anaheim and I did mine 11/4. Let me know when you get your email!I order black exterior/black interior/18" aero wheels/No EAP on 10/22/18 (Not a reservation holder)
Located in Los Angeles, CA and still not 1 peep from Tesla at all in over 3 weeks
Feel free to use my referral code to help make my waiting process a little less dreadful!

Alright, got a new date and location. 12/1 at the service center. Excellent!
To reiterate:
Day 1 Reservation holder
Black on Black, Aero, sans EAP
Ordered with wife's account, and did not take into account our current Tesla
Order date 10/19/18
Great news Congrats.
I am in Pittsburgh as well, Day 1 reservation holder + ordered on 10/19.
Haven't heard anything for my MR Blue/White.
I guess this proves, the color combinations is more important than anything else.

Not sure if this is going to make you feel any better, but having bought first Tesla in 2016, communication and customer service was not good either. However, since introduction of M3, it has gotten SIGNIFICANTLY worse. If you think this buying experience is bad, wait until you experience bad delivery (hope you won't, but I had to refuse a car once for atrocious condition) or get your car serviced in a busy city (waiting 6 weeks for an appointment in LA to bring my MX p100d for service).

Especially since they were estimating to produce 10K cars a week by this point. How exactly were they planning on delivering those cars? Also - much of the communication piece could be automated with software...at least the estimates. I'm surprised they didn't tighten up this part of it during the years leading up to the ramp up.
Another SD reporting in.
Model 3 Mid Range
Reservation date: Day 2
Order Date: 11/12/2018
Color: Silver
Interior : Black
Wheels: Aero
EAP: Yes
I know I have no grounds to hope for delivery in time, but since it seems like a lot of people are waiting on Silver maybe I'll get lucky and make it into a big batch before year end. If not, and if they don't adjust the price down, I will probably cancel and wait for the SR later in the year. We only ever needed SR for this one for commuting, but thought we would take a shot at getting the MR with rebate for not much more than SR without.
If I'm willing to pick up in Fremont, is there any official way to let them know? While far from my first choice, I could make it work if it gets me the 3 before 1/1.
I’ve called customer service a few times and only the last person I talked to was helpful. She said she updated my account with my preference to pick up at Fremont (even though previously CS had told me to wait for my DA). She also said that they were estimating Dec 1-7 delivery for west coast now (as of a week ago).
