Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

[steve74]

I haven't had an update since I placed the order on 29th June, is this standard?

What are people's experiences, % chance of my car showing up in Sept?

Many thanks

Steve

My window shortened and shifted left. Got my VIN yesterday morning. Cannot wait!
Estimated Delivery: August 28 - September 03

Haha yeah I shouldn’t have doubted. I wonder how quickly I’ll be able to take delivery. Gonna try to go down there tomorrow and talk to someone and see if I can schedule something

they’ll send a text message, i highly doubt they’ll do anything if you actually go there

 

[richieyim]

This is awesome and I’m very happy for you! Not sure it’s making my wait any easier though!

it’ll get extremely better but also your anxiety might kick in as it nears!

Has anyone in the Philly area received a VIN? My left date pushed back again: August 31 - September 16 now.

September 2 - September 17.

There's been no movement on my EDD for almost two weeks (except for a short 1 day slide that came and went). This morning it's still 9/6-9/26, no VIN

OD: 7/31, White/White/18"/No FSD. All prepare for shipment details entered.

It’s normal, it’s programmed to alert pedestrians since the car is so quiet

Can we turn it off?

 

[Meestakim]

Just called up to the dealership and I have my delivery appointment set for Sept. 4! Wohoo

Car currently en route to Chicago via train. Truck expected to arrive in STL 08/29. Was told to expect delivery 08/31-09/02. I should have asked if I could borrow one of the many (plastic-wrapped) Plaids in the lot until then. No envy here...

If anyone here has taken delivery of a Tesla recently in MO, please DM me - I have a question.

 

[Extant]

it will change, dont worry, welcome to EDD HELL

LOL, this is the most appropriate subtitle for this thread!

My EDD moved slightly to the left and is now 9/1 - 9/17 since Wednesday. It feels like a placeholder, so I'm not too excited about it.

September 2 - September 17.

I'm thinking our cars will be produced in the same batch. The end date is less than a month away, but they way the EDDs are moving, it feels pretty far away.

Hopefully we'll enter the post-VIN phase in the next few days!!

How do you know the location of the car?

 

[Extant]

Tesla doesn’t do model years. You’ll see people referring to 2021 M3s because of the refresh.

They do make significant changes every few years, like in 2021. Doesn't that happen around this time of the year?
For the future, any M3 manufactured in 2021 is a 2021 M3 whether it was made on 1/1 or 12/31? That would make sense, even if it doesn't match what other car makers do. I just wasn't aware of it.

 

[Extant]

Can we turn it off?

Being a safety feature, they might make it very hard to turn off, but it would be cool to be able to customize it.

I do see how that could be a problem for Tesla too, having people putting customized sounds/noises that do not serve the safety purpose well.

Just to make sure the noise you hear is the Tesla backup noise, this video plays the sound at the 4:05 mark

I live near Tesla STL, stopped by on my way home from work. I just asked the SA who was working. Once you have a VIN they can (or are permitted to) give you more information. I then spent an hour trying to find a site that lets you track trains from point A to B, much like a flight tracker. I was unsuccessful

 

[Conejo]

Just got the text to schedule delivery! Soonest available was this coming Monday. Here’s hoping no delivery postponements or car issues

Similarly when I stoped by my Tesla location yesterday they were able to tell me that the truck my car was on was 5hrs away and they even knew that the truck driver couldn't drive anymore for the day.

Bring on FSD for Tesla semis!
