Model 3 Highland (US) Waiting room
- Thread starter IChillinz
- Start date
If the cars are shipped to FL in the second week or latest third week of March they will be received before March 31st.
Anything that is built in the last 2 weeks will be shipped to places that takes 2-3 days to deliver.
Anything built in the last week of the quarter will stay in California and surroundings.
So mostly anything that requires more than 2-3 days will need to be shipped the first two weeks of March. Unless the sale numbers for the quarter are met, but looks that it is not the case. Anything that miss the quarter deadline will be sent to next quarter which could mean May/June
Also consider that March 29 to 31 is usually a Holiday weekend wich means that deliveries might be affected.

Yep that makes sense. A few people in here that reside in FL have gotten their VINS and shortened EDDs, so I’ll keep hoping for the best for everyoneIf the cars are shipped to FL in the second week or latest third week of March they will be received before March 31st.

I’m curious if anyone knows when VIN is assigned? I am wondering if, in some cases, the vehicles are shipped to their delivery locations, and then assigned?
Only reason I ask is that I know shipping time in the US from coast-coast can take up to 1-2 weeks. I’d anticipate receiving a VIN already if they are assigned during/directly after manufacturing. Just some curious thoughts!

I looked back in my records and saw my car was born on 8/25/20 and delivered to me on 9/13/20.I

I’ve heard that once your car is built and put on the truck to come to your location, that’s when you get the VIN. But I could be wrong!

The first M3 I bought, I received my VIN, had the SC pull it up and it was sitting in Fremont, waiting for a ride to FL. So before it leaves the factory.
It has many variables, you might soft match with a VIN when it is waiting in the parking lot for transport and oficially match when it is in the last leg of transportation. In Canada the cars arrive by boat from China, while you soft match while the boat is coming, your official match comes when the car is in the truck or train going to you.
However a soft match can be removed if the car misses the transportation window, which rarely occur (like a snowstorm, truck failure).

I don't think I've posted on this thread yet, but I just changed my order from the most basic (RWD/stealth grey/black/18) to:
RWD, Blue, White, 19 (Nova)
My OD was 1/25 and my latest EDD was 2/16-2/26. I'll update the SS once I have a new EDD.
I changed as I've always liked blue and our old MX was blue/white and I miss that combination. After reading some posts above, I made the hard decision to (presumably) delay things to get what I want, vs getting what I was (settling for) sooner.

Curious if you are financing/leasing? This is going to be my pickup location too and there’s not much info about it considering it’s a very unique process. Let us know how your pickup goes!
