Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

This site may earn commission on affiliate links.
Been lurking for a few weeks but am surfacing briefly to say "hello" and share my order info. I've been a frequent passenger in my boyfriend's 2018 Blue M3LR for over two years and it (along with my dude's non-stop proclamations of love for it 😂) has won me over enough that I decided to swap in my Camry for a Tesla of my own and hopefully be done with the ICE life.

MSM/Black, 18" wheels, no FSD
OD: 11/18; original delivery estimate on the website was Jan. 2022

EDD journey so far:
Pre-12/10 (before I thought to start tracking dates): 1/8-2/8
12/16: 2/11-3/11
Current: 1/14-2/11

I'm curious to see how/if my EDD changes as I head into my EDD window tomorrow. I've completed my order steps through the trade-in info. Keeping cash as my payment method for now, though I'll likely switch to finance through Tesla once I get a VIN.
 
If you don't put in your financial tasks, you're not really in line. I ordered mine on 8/30, put in financial info on 11/29, which I believe is the actual date the real wait started. Still waiting that is.
Could be, though I was still showing an EDD before that was filled in. Whatever, not a big deal. I don't desperately need a new car and my loan approval is good for 90 days. If the delay makes it more likely I get the Ryzen system, I'm cool with that.

Planning to pay by Cashier Check. Can someone please let me know whether the name at the check should be 'Tesla Inc.' or Tesla Motor Inc.'?

The Order Agreement doesn't specify, and my Ordering a Tesla page says only the following:

What are the accepted methods of payment? - Before driving off with your new Tesla, we require that the balance be paid in full, either personally or by way of guarantee from a financing institution. Confirm your method of payment with your Tesla representative prior to Delivery Day. In some states, payment must be received before delivery and cannot be accepted at time of pick-up.

Final payment is accepted via:
* Electronic check (direct debit) in your Tesla Account
* Wire transfer
* Certified check at time of pick-up, with your Reference Number (RN) and name in the memo line

So, unless someone here knows for certain - which I'm sure someone does - I would recommend reaching out to your SA to find out.
 
I've been lurking here for a little while, but thought I'd post info from my Journey for my wife's M3LR.

My MXLR isn't expected until October even though I ordered it before my wife's. She never lets me live that down. :)

Glad to see that a red one is about to be delivered
 
I don’t know what Carvana is smoking, but they offered me $41k for my 2021 M3SR+ when Vroom offered $48.1k.
They are in deed smoking some high quality stuff my friend, they offered me 36k for my 2021 M3 SR+ when Vroom offered 47k. They must have boat load of Teslas in inventory, they're basically telling us, we don't need your car now, or sell it to me at a huge discount.
