FlyerDan here on the forums turned me onto them. Cheapest rates I have found so far. Still waiting for my loan to process. Hopefully it will be this week.
You also have upgraded paint and interior. So technically your in a different queue than that person. I also have upgrade paint and interior, and my EDD lines up with yours, about 2 weeks later, same as our ODD.Interesting- I’m a whole month behind you yet my current EDD is only a week behind you.

Can you say more about the 980 motor, what it means for performance, what is an IGNEXT Ghost, and how does one determine what motor one got?
Since April, some M3’s have come with older premium/ reflector headlights, but most are delivered with global/matrix headlights.
If you google IGNEXT ghost you will answer your questions. Tldr it is a mod chip that overrides the car software allowing a LR to get more acceleration. It seems Teslas however do not come with a compatible motor anymore.
Wasn't trying to be snarky just saying there is a lot more detailed information out there on this mod
I'd also STRONLY recommend AGAINST doing this to your new vehicle as you will void the warranty and any issues that arise are now your responsibility
Without sounding rude, how do you know? Is there a thread about the M3LR not coming with them? I am fairly new to this forum so it could be major user error if there are like 10 threads on recent deliveries without 980 motors. Thanks for your input. I really do appreciate it.
2021 model 3 Standard Range Plus - 990 or 980 Motor?
Hello, Does anyone know if the new 2021 Tesla model 3 SR+ motors are 980 or 990? I can’t seem to find out anywhere. Even asked my Tesla advisor and she was also clueless.
teslamotorsclub.com
Tesla started upgrading the motors in 2019 so it is very unlikely you will have a 980 in a 2022 model. Part of the reason seems to be this ghost mod that they were trying to patch out.
This forum has almost every answer to a tesla question if you know where to look. It really is an invaluable source of info for anyone interested in tesla cars
Again I'd like to reiterate be very very careful if you do this mod. Remember tesla has remote diagnostics and wifi updates etc to your car. It's not farfetched to assume they may have a software to detect these mods even if you physically remove the mod.
Hope this helps you
Agreed... Not to mention if they see me hit 0 to 60 50 times in a row at 3.2 seconds they'll know something's up with my M3LR

... I mean my friend yes yes that's it my friend...
Lol yeah we've all got that friend that does whatever they want
tbh all these cars go stupid fast and unless your gonna be in the next fast and furious movie I think you'll be alright4.2 standard 0 to 60 is already crazy with the 2k boost that drops to sub 4 about 3.8 that's insane. Anything else is just getting into a "ludricrous" speed
I tried but I think I'm too new to make it appear....I can see it under my profile but no option for signature.BTW since your new I'd tell you to update your signature with your car info and edd so people don't bother you
You have 10 posts so you should be ok. The option should be in your profile
My delivery date got updated up one day to Aug 1 - Aug 15. Ordered Blue model 3 LR with aero wheels and black interior on April 7th. I live in Indiana. Hoping it’s doesn’t get pushed back any more.Got an update this AM. Now in the two week window Aug 1 - Aug 15.
Just curious if late march orders or early April orders have been getting VINs. More looking for near the Indiana area. I OD April 7th. Blue Model 3 LR, aero wheels, black interior. Current EDD August 1 - August 15th. Reallllly hoping I don’t get pushed to late August or even worse September.
I'm a March order and still have not received a VIN. Hoping I get one soon though.
My new APR rate seems to be 4.24% from Tesla Financing. Previously it was 2.74%.
Just wanted to ask you guys if there are any other good financing options?
I am not worried about 4.24 interest rate but don't want to settle there if I got alternatives.
Any suggestions would really help!

I just estimated the final sale price and it says completed...*shrug* It says everything is done now so I'm just waiting for the VIN now. Have you checked out apple FCU if your financing? I don't know if their rates changed yet, mine is locked in until 8/30 which I think I'll just miss, but hopefully, I can get an extension. They have by far the best rates I've found across the country.
