Well everyone, today I graduated.
Thanks for sticking through all the ups and downs, and I hope everyone gets their M3s soon*TM.
Delivery was in-person.
They had the car waiting on the carpet in front of the garage doors ready to be driven out.
Given it was -18C I'm glad they let us do the inspection inside.
Also glad that I had a second set of eyes go over the checklist - was called into work this morning and still had to clean out the RAV4 and get everything printed before the delivery appointment, so I was a bit nervous/clammy and tunnel visoned trying to finish my side of the checklist.
We were a couple minutes late but my SA was very lenient and was finishing up with someone else's delivery.
No major issues with paint/alignment.
Only thing I did notice was the right headlight stuck out 1mm more than the left, but I don't think I'll do anything about it.
I know a previous user mentioned checking the gasket/rubber seal between the two pieces of glass for the roof - mine had about a 1mm gap, but my SA said they had taken the car through a couple washes and nothing leaked.
Confirmed for AMD Ryzen and 12V Li-ion battery. No dual-pane rear windows. Couldn't visually confirm heated wiper park (SA tried to see if any techs could confirm but they had all gone home and they couldn't find the relevant info in the system).
SA said all deliveries should have the latest features so the heated wipers *should* come in an OTA update. Heated steering wheel is a nice touch though.
They also said that Canada started getting AMD Ryzen in January, as they had a backlog of orders/demand issues.
As always, it seems the quality of info from SAs is all over the map - I've had a total of 2(2.5) SAs, all over email.
First one said AMD Ryzen hadn't come to Canada yet*(this was Jan. 17), but to be fair I never followed up to see when was the exact date they started shipping Ryzen, as I just wanted M3 at that point.
There does seem to be a learning curve just with ordering - unless people know where to look or read from forums or reddit, they can easily hit a snag - like many users here have with not selecting a payment option, and as a result not being given priority for delivery even though they ordered earlier than others.
Would rate the delivery experience from Tesla 5/5, they gave me as much time as my nervous self needed, and we even went over our allotted 45 minutes. They had no issue with me parking in the parking lot to spend some time fiddling with all the settings and installing the screen protector.
Shout out to Chelan!
