I’m glad to hear that at least they were willing to work with you at least a little bit on the dates. Besides one other case with an extenuating circumstance, I haven’t heard much flexibility beyond the 3 days of original offered delivery date.

Congratulations. A nice list of must have accessories.Hi all,
Sorry I haven't been as active last few days but have been enjoying the car too much and didn't have much time
Just wanted to let you guys know(especially the ones still waiting on their cars) the wait was worth it. This car is so much fun to drive!
I also want to share a few things in case anyone is considering doing something similar
1. Charging from a 10-30 dryer plug
- I ran a 25ft extension cord to my garage door and use the 10-30 Tesla adapter - charging at 6kwh or 23mph. Plenty for my needs. Scheduled charging at off-peak hours at $0.17/kwh(YMMV)
Extension Cord - 10-30
2. Aero wheel covers
- Took them off and installed a wheel cap kit. Car looks better IMO and had a few compliments on "the new wheels".

3. Mud flaps/guards
- Just installed. Supposed to rain rest of this week so we'll see how they do.

4. Center console
- These are on their way. The center console has this huge storage space but no way to keep it organized. Tesla should implement something similar IMO
Center console trays
5. Screen protector
- On its way

6. Tint
- Next on my to do list is Tint. Still looking for a decent place with decent cost.
Are planning on PPF or Ceramic or both?
To my surprise, Today I got vision statement and new EDD changed with 12/23 - 12/27. Huge jump from 3/19-4/16. Now racing for Finance. Ordered Model Y also today with a hope to get it by June. Going all electric !!!!
Congrats. You put on hold and release it and still got your vision statement before me.
I was a little tempted to wait just to see when those hardware updates for 2022 would make it over to the states!
That being said it seems like giving them a call and getting an understanding SA is the way to go. They did ask me what my travel schedule was to see what they could do. They did say that I would be next in line should I release my VIN as well. Hope that helps anyone else in a similar situation.
Either one would cost thousands so will skip. Considering PPF on front bumper only(and maybe headlights) but undecided yet. Got 2 quotes for PPF bumper only $450 and $1495. No, there's no typo. These are the actual numbers I got($1000 difference??) Below is a quick summary of a quote I got. Location: Bay Area. California
| Item | Cost |
| Paint Protection FIlm | |
| Front End + 4 Full Doors | $4,095.00 |
| Front End Only | $2,695.00 |
| Front Bumper Only | $1,495.00 |
| 3M Crystalline | |
| Side Windows | $500.00 |
| Rear Windshield (1 Piece Only) | $800.00 |
| Front Windshield | $500.00 |

Sound reason IMO. In Arizona they are raising the registration cost for EVs starting next year and coming to parity with ICE vehicles in 2023. So there is a ~$1,500 incentive to take delivery this year, based on a 5-year registration.
BBB would have bested that but I’m no longer holding my breath.

It expired. I ordered on Nov 8th SA said okay I will put a hold until December 20th. I did not want to hold until Jan 1 because I applied for the loan and the 60 days ends on Jan 8th. (I had a car assigned from existing inventory that is why I applied for the loan on Nov 8th) Didn't know about BBB before the 8th of Nov.
I think that’s a wise decision. I got both on my first Tesla. However, I am not going to do it a second time. The car is always garage kept. We wash it every week. Rarely goes on the highway.
So I don’t see a reason for the PPF. I have had other cars and I never spent 1000’s to protect those. Why start something new. Lol
That’s me though.
Hi everyone! Coming from the Model S LR waiting room. Originally put in my S order on 6/29 and still waiting. Decided to save $30k and go with the Model 3 LR again. My last Model 3 was a 2018, so looking forward to some of the nice upgrades!

Did you get your VIN and then put a hold? I'm on vacation till 31st night. When I pulled it off at that time, I was sure that It will be delivered in March. But this sudden change in dates put me off guard.
