Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

[malevolant]

Picked up today. Only a few minor issues that the Delivery Associate had me put in a service request for.

Scratch on trim

Misaligned chargeport

Misaligned tail light (albeit very very minimally)

Tiny paint chip at the very edge of the door

Weirdest one - seemingly overtightened rear driver-side door causing the bottom not to sit flush to the rocker panel area. This one seems to have gotten better with driving the vehicle though, so we’ll see.

Well—my SA said Cash/Finance completion makes no change to your delivery date but everyone else says it does. So I can went ahead and completed all tasks nearly 3 weeks ago and have still not moved—it actually pushed me further out. Waiting patiently but no love shown for the East Coast apparently.

OD 1/19

1/20 Update: Estimated Delivery 4/21-5/30

1/28 Update: Estimated Delivery 2/26-3/26

2/6 Completed Cash/Finance task

2/8 Update: Estimated Delivery 4/23 - 5/21

I've got the same EDD as you. OD of 2/16, EDD hasn't updated yet

@malevolant thanks for posting those, gives me an idea of what to look out for on my MSM M3 when it comes

 

[devilmountain]

What area are you guys ordering from?

About 45 minutes from the Factory. Just got a new window from March 11-31. I believe this is update #8. I ordered on 11/8.

Took delivery of my LR yesterday. All good except the drivers door is slightly off. Already made a service appt for alignment.

Vin # 173XXX, AMD Ryzen, and Li-Ion battery confirmed.

Put on the T-Sportline 20” TST staggered wheels today as well as a bunch of other things (screen protector, Tesla logo puddle lights, Tesla console trays, wheel locks, all weather floor mats and trunk liner, performance pedal caps and performance rear spoiler)

Good luck to those waiting and its worth it once you finally get the car.

Congrats! Car looks great! I'll be picking mine up from CLT in a couple weeks too. Did you ever get an official SA or did you have to call them (or visit since you are so close) with questions? My friend just picked up his MYP today from CLT that he ordered mid December and it has the Intel chip which has me a little worried but you getting a M3LR with Ryzen gives me hope. I will probably still call them this week to confirm.

Read through hear a few times but never got around to posting until now.

Words of advice: Don’t be nice. Pester your SA for status updates during the delivery process.

I got my VIN 2/12 (174*** has AMD) and got delivery scheduled for 2/28. I asked for a status on the vehicle the next week but was ignored by the SA. I thought I’d be nice and realize they’re busy etc and didn’t follow up except to let them know I’d like to take delivery earlier over the weekend (26-27 FEB).
On 25 FEB I texted again to ask how it was looking and if early delivery was possible. The SA texts back that they don’t know how I have a 28 FEB appointment because my car is still in CA. Turns out the “system” sent my car to a warehouse instead of a train and somehow no one noticed in two weeks.
SA says they “rely on the system”. Still has not apologized. Did say there is nothing Tesla will do for me. No free charging, free connectivity months etc.

This is my third Tesla and I have to say I should not have expected more from the company. Love the cars, hate the company. Can’t wait for true competition to shock them into caring about their customers.

M3LR/White/Black/18” - OD: 12/16/21 1st EDD: 2/2 - 3/2; 2nd EDD: 2/15 - 3/15; 3rd EDD: 2/22-3/22; 4th EDD: 2/22 - 3/7; 5th EDD: 28 FEB; 6th EDD: 8 MAR

lights did you use? I have seen numerous ones available, and some people have said some either do not fit correctly or cause other electrical issues in the vehicle.

This is what i used:

Spigen Tempered Glass Screen Protector

I have this brand of case on my iPhone. 2+ years and it's still holding up strong.

 

[journeyman846]

My “Supercharger” is ready. Pick up car tomorrow. SO EXCITING!!

This looks great! I wish I had the space to put something up like this.

Competitions already there. Once they open up their charging network then it will be a fair fight.

That's what I'm talking about! Awesome! That's next after new roof and ac swap to a higher seer rating.

 

[mshah59]

does having a trade in in your order impact your edd? should i remove the trade in from my order? my 14 day window is all over the place. The revised one from this morning is March 1st to March 14th.

 

[Theraven]

Woke up this morning to a new shortened EDD keeping my fingers crossed.

M3LR - White/Black/18/noFSD
Scottsdale, AZ
OD: 2/3
EDD#1: 2/25-3/25
EDD#2: 3/2-3/16

Man I hope this happens to me too, Same order & location with 1/14 OD

 

[shephard357]

Yes. I have downloaded the app. It says I’ve opted to pay in full so I believe that must be why I’m not able to finance through Tesla. Also by financing through my local credit union it allows me to pick up the car in Michigan.

Cool..didn’t mean to pry

Competitions already there. Once they open up their charging network then it will be a fair fight.

True but I’d add production capacity to that list. For most of the competition it’s like 2016 was for the M3…you can order one but it’s 1-2 years to delivery. I feel like my ‘22 M3’s taking that long but when I looked at market there were few true competitors who were actually taking orders and times were pretty far out.
Some I don’t consider to be competitive at all. I love Audi but the eTron actually felt sluggish when compared to my Q7 even though both they had the same 0-60 time in the mid-5’s. It didn’t feel fun to drive. VW’s just slapped batteries on some ICE vehicles and the cars suffer for it.

 

[mshah59]

Got an EDD update to 3/2 - 3/16. A VIN would have been nice though.

any update?

 

[rollermonkey]

Pester your SA for status updates during the delivery process.

That would be easier if I had an SA.

This is my third Tesla and I have to say I should not have expected more from the company. Love the cars, hate the company. Can’t wait for true competition to shock them into caring about their customers.

Good to see not all Tesla drivers have drank the Kool-Aid.

When the Model S first came out, I was super excited, and totally onboard the fanboy bus, but didn't need a new car yet.
By the time I needed a new car, I was out of the military and in college, so couldn't afford a Tesla.
Now, I need a new car, can afford a Tesla, but am most definitely NOT on the fanboy bus any longer.
It's been a strange trip, and maybe someday, I'll actually get to pick this damned car up from the service center.

 

[Speeddemon13]

Just thought I’d share to give everyone waiting some hope

M3LR/MSM/Black Interior/Aero/No FSD
OD: 2/7
EDD 1: March 2022
EDD 2: March 8 - March 31
EDD 3 March 8 - March 22
2/27: VIN Assigned: 195XXX
EDD 4: March 14 - March 18

Haven’t confirmed with SA about AMD or Lithium 12V battery but I’m assuming it will have everything.

Will update when I confirm/ take delivery. Good luck to everyone waiting!

Like BMW Canada announcing the other day that new orders for an i4 are already looking at 2023 for delivery? Yikes.

 

[Kaytu]

any update?

sadly no. What about you? ( Dont see your details in signature or otherwise ).
