The "your car is being built" is there once you finish the task required which isn't much.

Yep. They've been building my car since Dec 8. LOL
Never trade in your car to Tesla. They will always offer pennies compared to what other companies will offer. Private sale will give you the most money.

Your car was always being built. You see, it all started when a star with mass 10 times our sun collapsed, and fused lighter elements into iron...
I actually got offered more than CarMax. Haven't gone the private sale route as through Tesla it's just much easier.
M3LR White/White 18" Aero, no-fsd (SF Bay Area)
OD: Nov 2 2021
EDD 1: December 2021
EDD 2: 12/3-12/31
EDD 3: 12/14-12/28
VIN 1 on 12/13
Placed on hold for 30 days until 1/12. This was back when BBB was still a maybe.
Hold automatically lifted on 1/8. Showed TBD through 1/12.
EDD 4 on 1/13: 3/3-3/31
VIN 2 on 1/13 ~11am. Auto-scheduled for pickup 1/15 at 4pm in Fremont. Website offered no other options. Called to ask about other times for pickup as I was out of town through the holiday weekend and couldn't change plans that quickly. They could hold it through 1/16 only, rep placed order on hold until 1/17 to release VIN.
EDD 5 on 1/18: 3/14-3/31
Not rejecting any more VINs, it was just unfortunate they gave me so little time on the second one. Most likely a rejected VIN that got assigned to me. Just going off current EDD looks like I'm back in the normal line as if I just ordered. But hopefully I'll get tagged quicker than what is shown.

Oh nice! I sold my BMW privately through FB marketplace and it only took about 6-7 days. Super easy. Got about 2k more than carmax, and 6k more than Tesla's offer.
Interesting, wondering if they put you to the back of the line if you reject VIN's twice. In my case, I rejected a VIN once, had a hold for two days afterwards and also changed my color from White to MSM before the hold ended. As of now, my EDD has not changed, i.e., it is identical to the EDD I had when my VIN was assigned.

Looks like MSM really is being pushed to be delivered - you can request a hold if it's too soon for you to take delievery.
Just curious but what colours did you see?
I'm undecided as well. I think if we refuse delivery, we'll probably be re-assigned a VIN which was also rejected due to the Intel chip. I can't imagine getting out of Intel unless we cancel completely. Cancelling completely would cost me $1250 (price went up $1k). I think replacing the Intel with AMD as a retrofit, if ever possible, would cost more than $1250. Definitely a hard decision.
White/white M3LR, 18' wheels. @ 50990. New pricing is $51990.
If I was only losing $250 from cancelling, I'd cancel and book a new res for AMD. But the $1k difference => $1250 lost if I cancel. So Intel may be worth it, I suppose.

Well, that's promising... you ordered same day as me, and have the same color, interior, etc... i hope mine moves up too!
EDD just moved this morning from 1/22-2/19 to 1/26-2/9. Narrowing window and matching what the SA told me for the "internal estimate".
The question nobody seems to know at this point is how many more unassigned / undelivered intel atom M3LR's are out there and is everything being produced today switched over to the AMD chips? I would think they will cycle through them all eventually, but whether that takes 2 weeks or 2 months I think is a legitimate question. I had the same config as you, but ordered after the price increase, so I rejected the 2 vins I was assigned and re-ordered. I don't really need the car until sometime in early May anyway so it's not a big deal to me to wait it out.
