Good luck!Is this because you need to take delivery by 2/24 to qualify for the CVRP? If I placed my order today (M3 LR), I wouldn't qualify for the CVRP credit since I realistically won't take delivery until April/May, correct? Or do they list it as I need to place an order before 2/24?
Wait … no Sonic and Cup Head and no Bluetooth controller support? I just bought a wireless controller and was really looking forward to playing while chargingBetween the time I started researching buying a new Tesla (Sept 2021), subsequently placed my order for a M3LR (Dec 7), and my delivery date (Feb 19) the car has changed quite a bit.
Improvements:
Removed features
- AMD based MCU
- LION low voltage battery
- Matrix headlights
- Heated wiper park area
Features unavailable in Canada that don't make sense:
- 1 less speaker
- USB in center console no longer supports data.
- No more game controller support
- Games requiring controllers no longer loaded (even though you can use the port in the glove box??)
- Only one working Data port for Sentry mode, Dashcam, Boombox, Lightshow, music storage etc.
- UI drastically changed, not for the better as per some.
- Heat Pumps breaking under extreme cold - now fixed?
- Boombox feature removed? Or just changed to be less fun? (If this is a mandate by NHTSA ,why does it affect cars outside of the USA?)
- 30 days vs 1 year premium connectivity
- No more referral code benefits for cars
- Several price increases
Am I missing anything else?
- Theater apps like Disney+ and TikTok missing
- FSD beta (coming soon... ?)
I'm still excited about the car, don't get me wrong. Just pretty amazing how much can change in a few months with a Tesla.
I think the improvements outweigh the missing features. I'm also hopeful that they'll roll out bluetooth game controller support and give us back Cup Head and Sonic.
Cup Head was made by a company based in my hometown here in Canada and I was looking forward to seeing it on my car(And their graphic designer is my friend's cousin!)
May your wait times grow shorter and your deliveries go smoothly
this is really sadjust catching up on this... that sucks. My config is slightly different than yours; MSM/blkWell, I was assigned a VIN today at 3:30 pm. I noticed that the VIN was 165xxx. I called the store and inquired if the vehicle was rejected due to the VIN being low. The store told me they actually have the car and it was in fact rejected. I responded to the store and inspected the vehicle. it had a damaged gasket around a rear sensor, a scratch on the driver's door handle and damage to the weather stripping. I was informed that all would be fixed prior to delivery, but I would have to accept the vehicle. I declined. At least I know there is only one person ahead of me for my configuration at my particular store.
From what I recall reading was that you need to basically take possession of car then you can apply for the rebate.
That's a very good perspective to maintain. I'll keep that in the back of my mind.
Why on earth are there some orders that sit a month or longer than others? This is so perplexing. I hope you finally get your VIN. You've waited long enough.In a very similar situation. OD Dec 9 with same config as you, EDD is Feb 10-24, which I'll likely get a push back update tomorrow. No vision agreement/vin, etc yet
Meanwhile I'm getting assblasted waiting for a VIN here in BC. Lol.Well it's been an active 24hrs for me.
After getting my VIN yesterday and having my SA reset my payment options, I took the required pictures and submitted my 2021 RAV4 AWD for trade-in. Submitted a finance application with Tesla at the same time.
Pro-tip - don't do what I did and instead wait for the trade-in offer to finalize. Still new to this
Tesla doesn't have their own financing up in Canada and instead partners with our major banks.
My SA informed me that the bank only sees credit rating and debt-to-income, so to them it looks like I'm getting a 2nd car loan - yikes.
First update came back in a few hours - 1 of the 3 banks denied the application, and the other two asked for more info.
Tesla also asked for a payout statement.
On the delivery front, I've got it scheduled. After I got my delivery text this morning I checked the days available - Feb. 15/16/17 - 16th had the most sun forecasted so I was going to pick that. Didn't have time to confirm it and when I got back home this evening I saw that the 15th was greyed out and the 18th had now become available.
12C and sunny? Count me in. There might be some white stuff coming on Tuesday so Friday also gives 3 days time for anything to melt.
Oh and my pending trade-in offer on my RAV4 is CAD$31700. No idea where that sits on the scale.
Time to watch all these Tesla videos I was planning to watch over the next 3 months as I was under the assumption things were going to be backed up for a while.
I have same config, SoCal, ordered 12/3. EDD 2/10-2/24. Expecting to wake up tomorrow with a EDD push…
