to each their own - but man almighty is that Polestar a fugly car. Maybe in 5 years they can stop copying a Dodge?

They most assuredly DID lie to me, in person, on the telephone, a week ago Saturday. I've been following Tesla since they first announced the M3, so I know a little bit about it. And if my ranting about being lied to in an online forum is something that you've never seen before, then you need to get out more.
OD:2/3 EDD 3/6-3/20. Others with similar OD and same Tesla center have 3/6 -3/10 with vin, so I think it's ony a matter of time until mine narrows to that
Charging network for sure, here in my area of the Northeast, you'd be hard pressed to find anything but a Supercharger with any kind of speed to it.
Personally, seeing the stream of impatient buyers place their order and given an estimated delivery month, only to then freak out weekly in this thread leading up to the original month estimated, and in most cases, actually receive the car within that month is becoming very amusing to me.
It states clear as day in the order agreement: "The estimated delivery date of your Vehicle, if provided, is only an estimate as we do not guarantee when your Vehicle will actually be delivered. Your actual delivery date is dependent on many factors, including your Vehicle’s configuration and manufacturing availability." I guess it's just easier to pop off and continue being ignorant and claim to be lied to than actually read the order agreement though.

I ordered, purchased and now own a Polestar 2. Prior to this decision, I ordered a Tesla Model 3 with the intention of purchasing it to replace a BMW i3.
I will be reporting on my experience with the two very different processes and differences between the two vehicles. As well as why I was giving Tesla another shot after my Model S experience.
For reference, I also own a 2021 Audi e-tron and have owned a BMW i3, Honda Clarity PHEV, Tesla Model S and Nissan Leaf.
I hope this helps.
I could have typed that myself...Range, SuperCharging and over the air updates and not having to "Bring your car to your nearest service point and we’ll take care of the whole update process for you"...ugh and 20k more miles on LR for the battery warranty.
Also to each his/her own but gotta like the looks too... Not sure what this reminds me of but...its not for me.
Sounds like you are just unnecessarily spreading toxicity in an online forum of excited people looking for advice because you didn't understand what you were getting yourself into
Got my wall charger installed. Now just need the car.
Lol. My OD was 11/25 and my hold was lifted today (2/22) so I'm 89 days into my allowed 90 days of hold.
The EDD that was just assigned me is June 4 - July 2. Nah... I give it 48h and expect they'll push me forward and force me to cut back in line based OD. Still expecting an EOQ delivery but as one who previously commented that I would be okay with going to the back of the line, I'm OKAY going to the back of the line.
Let's see what happens.

thats the day the date changed for EDD.... early that day it showed April.. later that day when i ordered it went to May
Im suprised you canceled this order. You could have waited for the car to arrive, drive it straight to carmax and get more than you paid. An easy 1-2k profit for doing nothing else other than waiting for it to finally showup.
Lying is purposefully deceiving someone. I highly doubt they did this on purpose. I bet that these employee's had the same information you did that showed an estimated delivery date and they simply repeated what they assumed to be true. Tesla cant control outside issues suchas, delivery drivers, trucks breaking down, truckers protesting, your delivery driver getting covid, or most of the factory workers catching the new strand of covid and getting 14 days off ect... there are so many other factors that come in to play when it comes to delivery and your rigid thinking will only hurt your ego in the long run. You have to critically think about things before letting your emotions take over. I work at the hospital and I can tell you straight up that dealing with something as simple as waiting for a car to show is incognizant to the stuff i see every day. Stop worrying about the small things because one of these days you will find yourself on the opposite end of another rigid thinker blaming your for lying to them.
I truly hope you get your car asap, but if your in such a big hurry why not setup a script that auto page refreshes tesla's page. I have done this and I have had the oppertunity to buy a model 3 at least once every 24 hours if i notice the page change while near the computer. I placed an order and will wait till may for delivery, but i keep the auto refresh on ecnase my color pops up. So far ive seen white, black, red, and grey. No blues in my area pop up so ill just keep waiting.
Congrats. The only photo i seen is from what bmwm3man just posted so please post up some photos of your car. Im all for competition so being able to see the outside and inside would be nice.
When i see the rear, it looks like the rear of a 1989 totota celica which is a very old design so thats probably why people dont like it. I also dislike the new bmw (M3) buck toothed bumper and since i already sold my 2015 m3 a year ago i decided that since the new m3 was ugly to me i didnt know what to do other than rebuy a used m3 at a much higher cost or buy a different M3. I choose the telsa this time around. The Tesla not only has its looks, but it has so many features that make it worth it alone. Plus the car gets over the air updates with big feature changes that no other manufacture will ever do without charging you.
Nice! I didnt get the tesla outlet installed yet since I plan to also run an air compressor from time to time so i opted for a universal outlet and got the 14-50 outlet installed with a 60amp breaker that way i can swap it if i decide to change my mind in the future to have it all match. If i had a white car I'd consider it lol, or maybe i'll re-spray the powerwall's with a matching blue to match my m3 when it arrives. Who knows. Either way were both ready and waiting for our cars

Not gonna lie, my car payment is gonna be REAL. I was pissed when my delivery date got pushed back almost 3 months, but I looked at it as an opportunity to save even more money to put towards my down payment. If I find myself jonesing a little bit, I'll just go schedule a 5th test drive 
I am actually going to go ahead and install a 14-50 outlet off the inverter as well. I’m slowly putting together the solar system as my budget allows, and I’m not sure it would be able to handle the full amp capacity of the wall charger when its done. I decided to grab the wall charger because the 14-50 was out of stock for a couple weeks, but as soon as I ordered the wall charger it was available again.Nice!
