Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room
- Thread starter GreenHokie
- Start date
Notice how all of these that "become available" are juuuuust over the 55k tax credit limit? lol. Also, I spoke with Tesla about these, and asked if there was one available in another market if it could be shipped to my store, and they said the ones that become available are for that market only. So unless one in Colorado pops up available, I won't see these inventory units in my app.

Congrats to those who are getting delivery dates!
So far, I've only seen SG/White deliveries in the US. Does anyone else have a confirmed date for any other config?

You should respond back with NO, I refuse to take delivery until June as stated on your website.
You're also gonna hurt a lot of the fortune teller's feelings, who say there is no way Tesla will deliver cars in June, if you take an earlier delivery.
I hope so. Website still says est versus EPA est.I haven't heard from my advisor today, so I'd say this is a good sign that firmware and certification issues are resolved, and my twice-delayed delivery will finally happen tomorrow morning. I hope this also means a flood of VINs are assigned - fingers crossed

I just wanted to share from my end that that I was informed today by my SA that the firmware is still not yet available. So I'm still waiting for my official delivery. It makes me wonder if deliveries which are reported to have already happen were without the firmware update but who knows 
I have to go by with what is told to me specific to my delivery. Anyways, hoping for better luck for everyone taking delivery soon.

Of course, if you're a fan of Always Sunny in Philadelphia, you know that "Inspire Hope" is one step before "Separate Entirely" in the DENNIS system!
People that don’t qualify for the tax credit or that want to lease and get the tax credit will take these instantly.
Not sure if I can wait 3-4 months for a car that I was originally expecting to way 3-4 weeks for. Crazy how opaque this ordering and delivery process still is

I think that the string of hugely delayed EDDs is being caused by an automated system seeing the huge delay in VIN assignments and missed delivery dates due to firmware/EPA and "thinking" it's a production issue. Perhaps it is adjusting EDDs relative to what it "believes" to be an extremely low vehicle production rate.
I am hopeful that once the levy breaks on deliveries/VIN assignments (this week?) we'll see EDDs move up drastically across the board and we'll start to see a lot more regular meaningful movement.

I've been thinking about that. I just watched a video about Rimac Nevera, which uses 120kWh NMC battery pack with 1914hp.
Given it uses similar chemistry, it's reasonable to assume that peak power scales with the size of the pack.
Thus 510hp * 1.46 (increase in battery) = 746hp (yet it has 1914hp)
Similarly, model S:
510hp * 1.22 = 622hp (yet it has 1020hp)
So why does it seem that model 3 is limited by the battery? What am I missing?

It's only showing for people that have orders currently in that market. It won't show on the tesla website, nor will it show on our accounts unless we are in that specific market. I talked to someone at tesla and they said if one becomes available then it stays in that area and they will not ship it.
This is what I’ve been told as well. I’m currently scheduled for Thursday, but I find it highly unlikely that it’ll be ready by then. Until the EPA signs off, I believe Tesla is at their mercy and government agencies sure aren’t known for their speedI just wanted to share from my end that that I was informed today by my SA that the firmware is still not yet available.

I feel bad for the simps that are ordering the car today and (rightfully so) expecting to get it in June
