Model 3 Highland (US) Waiting room

[Jaycha2]

Question on premium connectivity- mine just renewed for a year at $99. My lease is expiring and being extended while I wait for my new car ( 1/10, AWD/ White interior) that is coming who knows when ( current 3/9-3/31 EDD). Will Tesla transfer my paid for subscription to the new vehicle?

I doubt that. I cancelled mine before it was supposed to renew.

I have a VIN for an LR, so you can take this as you will... I have waited for 6 months for a car that I wanted.... I mean I was ready to purchase a car in September and I waited until January so I could get the highland. I would have waited till June. I understand that some people can't wait. Leases ending, sold previous car, etc. But for most of us, it sucks to wait in this era of same day amazon prime, but if its really the car you want, then why not wait. This isnt just a slight revision to the 2023.. something like 60% of it has changed. Its essentially a new model.

Maybe all the ones that keep having their EDD change to the current order EDD on the Tesla website are the ones that are having issues. If true, who knows what the issues might be. Maybe a supplier issue and they have a limited supply of parts.

Parts might be an issue an should be different from the ones of China. There are very strict rules that certain percentage the car should contain local parts from America for tax and benefit purposes. They cannot bring everything from China and just assemble it in US. They might found one provider parts was not reliable and need a new one for LR components.

In addition, the Fremont factory layout is soo old, and surprised Model 3 was not assembled in a newer assembly line like the Texas one. Hope the Mexico factory will solve all this by having a modern layout and have similar quality from China.

In the Fremont Tesla Video today, I can see some highlands with white interiors. Either Highlands or Model S.
What do you guys think?

 

[M3ski22]

i can't tell which ones look like M3's. anyone else has better eyes than mine?

For me, the easiest way to tell from above is by the headlights. Looks like most are Model Y, not the new headlights of the Model 3.

Also look at the trunk to determine S vs 3. Between Y and 3 look at the rear window for tint break.

This is going to spread FUD. I am still hopeful.

This forum and its conspiracy theories are so entertaining. I’m surprised nobody has blamed the delays on Obama yet.

I don't even see the relationship between LR and white interior. I understand if SA said issues with white interiors. How does white interior being in an LR but not white in an SR make a difference? Do the batteries/speakers/motor also come in white?

Musk want more control of Tesla or we will never see the new Model 3!

Picked up my car on the 02/24. I’ve had a passenger for the first time today and they have noticed something I haven’t noticed before on the glass of the passenger front window .

I haven’t noticed that on delivery so I’m not sure if it’s something that developed on the following days or not.

 

[ptchow]

Never ICE but may look at EQE or EQS

I noticed EQE is in same price range as Model S. Would you consider model S also?

 

[darkrai]

Correct! I’m sure they’re all being transported over here during next week. Everyone on the east coast with basic configs has early-mid March timelines.

What’s considered basic config?

 

[Fatal]

What’s considered basic config?

Standard Range (RWD), Stealth Gray, 18” Nova wheels, black interior.

You order that and good chance you get it in less than 2 weeks depending on location.

 

[00omega]

What’s considered basic config?

basic and/or base model. As in no options selected.

a no option Model 3 = Standard Range RWD + Stealth Grey Paint + 18in photon wheels + Black Interior

Would y’all go black int instead of white if it meant delivery ASAP versus the potential 2-3 month wait?

That glass really is chonky. Compared to the 2020 M3 it looks so much thicker. But that sucks! You should be able to take it in and get it fixed at least. Maybe even mobile service?

I ordered that exact spec on 1/10 and I'm still waiting...

Nope. White interior or bust

Yeah, I love the car so far. I'm not sure what happened there, it seems that the superior piece of an internal layer is messed up by looking it. I've requested service and is currently set as Mobile but they are still evaluating it. I'd be really upset if they charge me something, I've just driven 140 miles and I've been monitoring all Sentry events very closely. Nothing happened.

For me too, white or no go. And if it slips past March and they won’t honor the FSD transfer, I’ll just wait out the Performance (which is truly what I really want, but I’m compromising for FSD Xfer). Maybe I’ll get lucky, and they’ll do transfers again too. I was not expecting them to bring them back in Q1. Maybe Q4 earliest was my guess. Clearly I was wrong there!
I do still think they should make transfer always available for 25% of current pricing. They’ll get revenue, drive sales, and make people happy. It’s Win Win Win.
