I placed my order on the same day with the same exact specs but my location is SLC, UT.Hi all!
Message from Montréal Quebec, can't wait to get my M3 LR and I have the back and forth date and don't know what to think anymore lol. So I joined this thread.
OD : 02/17 M3 LR AWD/Dark Grey/ Aero 18/ Black interior and no fsd

woohoo!Ok folks I did a thing D. After being ignored by my SA For about a week and a half. I called Tesla directly as I have been following the inventory that's been getting pushed onto the website and decided to yolo on a performance model. Customer service rep was so nice
and informed me that if I didn't really want a
performance there was a similar LR spec (metallic blue black interior on aero rims)to what I originally ordered
except it has 19" wheels and white interior. I said sign me up. Got my VIN assigned instantly. I he did confirm it has the new chip and lithium battery. As well he told me
it's a brand new car. It wasn't a rejected quality car (no repairs) and was not a demo. Seems like someone wasn't ready for their car. ty to them
Vin 199xxx Blue/white interior/ 19"
ETA 3/11-3/15 to SoCal. Car is going to be transported from NorCal.
All in all a lot of inventory coming live online and they will switch you into that built car without loosing your initial deposit. You just have to be quick to call

Going to attempt this now. Waiting for a callback. I don’t much care what color my car is as long as it is LRAWD and white interiorOk folks I did a thing D.

In the same boat right now. SA asked me today if I wanted to change configuration at all. Pushing my EDD back must be a ploy for me to spend more money on options!
OD: 2/13
M3LR/MSM/Black/Sport/No FSD/Cincinnati
EDD1(OD): “April”
EDD2(2/17): May 22-Jun 19
EDD3(2/22): Mar 20-Mar 31
EDD4 (2/27): Apr 24-May 22
EDD5 (3/8): Mar 21-Mar 31
Today’s update puts me back to where I was 2 weeks ago. Not that I’m complaining.

I wish they would at least give me that option. I haven’t encountered anyone even willing to work with me yet. I’d take any color and wheel size as long as I can get LRAWD with white seats

Ya you need to follow the Tesla inventory trackers. That’s how I got so lucky. Im surprised the car sat for so long.

Is that something other than looking at the available inventory on the website? Cuz that only gives me a 200 mile search radius. And I've never seen anything come up.
Attention brothers & sisters, I received a VIN today, 204xxx! After changing my pants, I also discovered an updated EDD of 3/19-3/23. There appears to be some value to the theory that the first EDD you get after ordering is the most accurate, if I take delivery by the 22nd. At least following the bouncing EDD's gives us some exercise, it beats jumping to conclusions.

How was experience going from from the EVO to the Tesla? VROOM, Carvana, etc is quoting me 30k-ish. Trying to decide if I sell privately or just trade in. I also own the car so the total amount is going towards the tesla. My EDD is showing May 19-June 16, which feels like forever but that seems just the way it is.

Man, I loved my EVO! But as soon as I test drove the Tesla, I knew what its predecessor was going to be. The Tesla is much faster (at least 1 full second 0-60), much quieter, much smoother, and more comfortable. And do I need to mention all the tech?
If I were you, I would spend some time seeing how much your STI is going for and see if it's worth the extra hassle to sell it privately. $30k-ish is not bad for trade-in.
My 2nd EDD was that exact window, then it got bumped up to 05/03 - 05/31 and it's been there for a couple of weeks. My OD is 02/11.
I'm trying to figure out when to expect my VIN assignment. The Tesla order spreadsheet is showing an average of 40 days from order to VIN, then an average of 12 days from VIN to delivery. But that data goes all the way back to 2018, and I feel that most people don't bother filling out the form to populate it. So who knows. I wish I could forget I ever ordered the damn thing and then be surprised that my car is ready to be picked up. Wishful thinking!
