Finally get to rid myself of the squirrel avatar. I picked up my car after 57 days from my July 13 order date and it was well worth the wait. Picked up from Raleigh, NC and was ready to go home after 20 minutes of my arrival. It took me longer because I mistakenly selected the cash option because I wasn't financing with Tesla. Even with that mistake, it was still the easiest and best dealership experience I've ever had. I took about 30-40 minutes to inspect the car and found no flaws what so ever. I had an issue connecting my car to the app because I hadn't downloaded the latest app update, but once I figured that out I was good to go. I'm unaware of the experience had by others, but I was pretty much left to my own devices to figure everything out once I picked up the key cards. I wasn't even instructed on how to use the keycards to get into the car, which was fine. I wish I could comment on the driving experience but I only got to drive 11 miles to the shop to get PPF put on the car. I'm looking forward to bringing my car home tomorrow. To everyone still waiting, just know it's all worth it.

your PPF is only going to take one day? I was told it could take up to week for mine.

I only did the front (bumper, fenders, and hood), not the entire car. I dropped it off Wednesday night and it will be ready by close of business tomorrow.your PPF is only going to take one day? I was told it could take up to week for mine.

Wow this really high. Geico quoted me at my 6 month premium would increase by $450 which I though was ludicrous. Gonna go with them for the time being because we have another car on the policy but I will be shopping around for sure after delivery.

Update.
So as I said. Got my VIN today. EDD was still showing 9/18-9/30
Contacted Tesla to change my payment method from cash to loan. At this point the EDD changed to 9/20 -9/26 The SA I spoke with told me to expect the car to my delivery center on 9/24 and to give them a few days so expect delivery on the 25th or 26th. That's a weekend so I'll assume the 27th.
Loan is all set up, insurance all set up. Ready to go!!
OD 8/28. VIN 9/9 EDD 9/20-9/26. Red/white 19" live in York, PA
Hopefully next update is that I took delivery

I am not sure you are asking for the full car, but I was quoted around 4900 for the entire car. I am planning to get the stealth cause I think white stealth looks amazing.
Looks like the reds are getting built now; just got my VIN, 7/5 order, M3LR/red/white/Aeros/noFSD. EDD September 10-15, SoCal.

Finally picked up my M3 yesterday. Only issue was that both key cards were slightly melted presumably from cabin heat. I went inside the SC and both were promptly replaced. They even let me keep the slightly melted ones as well, so now I have a total of 4. I also had an issue connecting to the car after I logged into my Tesla account (website) from my phone to accept delivery, but logging out then back into the Tesla app resolved that.
I made a point to not inspect every inch of the car since I've never done that with any of the many new cars I've purchased/leased in the past. But I did give both interior and exterior a good look over to see if I noticed anything obvious that that caught my eye and everything seemed perfect. The car only had 3 miles on it and was charged only about half way. The touch screen was a little jumpy as I used it and experienced some phantom touches, but I Googled how to restart it (hold both steering wheel buttons for 10 sec) and that resolved it. Overall, awesome car I'm more than happy with the purchase!

I don’t know if it’s different in your area, but I currently have Geico and they quoted me the highest for the Tesla so I‘ll be switching to Progressive, where my price basically won’t change from what I’m paying now.
Took delivery of my car yesterday!! Been driving it so much I don't even have any pictures yet, lol. Order date was 7/4 and picked up 9/9 so just a bit over two months wait time. I got the blue with black interior, aero rims, no fsd. But wow, it's worth the wait guys, these cars are futuristic and so fast! Good luck guys, and hang in there!

Yeah I have a clean driving record but my deductibles are really low which makes the price much higher. I can reduce the premium a lot if I raised the deductible but I have drive through some very wooded areas and see plenty of deer so I’m not taking any chances after multiple deer strikes in the last 10 years.
LOL my parents years ago got kicked off State Farm because my sister hit so many deer and they didn’t believe them.

Has anyone recently put an order on hold for a LR and then removed it to get back in the waiting queue? Wondering how long the average wait is when you got back in line to get a vin number.
