Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

[AJ Henderson]

Wow. I wouldn’t have thought they would stop the line with this huge push they are trying to make.

Might not be their choice. It's possible they got shut down until they can fix whatever caused the paint oven fire since it's probably been about the right amount of time for that investigation to finish.

What if the person had a legitimate reason for the second no-show. Like their dog ate their cashier's check? Surely there's some leeway for a few days delay here and there. Accidents do happen.

Nothing about that would need to stop them from unmatching someone from the car. If its an actual emergency thing, no one would actually care about being unmatched from the car and told "let us know when you are ready and we will put you back in the queue".

Making an exception puts Tesla in the space of having to judge whether someone is telling the truth or not. Much simpler to not offer an exception, cant get into trouble that way (unless someone has a personal connection with an SA or something).

Note that in my example the "remind them about the policy about the $250" doesnt mean I think they will keep the $250 after 2 missed appointments. I do think they would unmatch the car though, and remind someone about the $250, then tell them "please reach out when you want to be put back in the queue.

I mean it could be as simple as they had a few trains leave this morning and cleared out the lot. EDDs are tightening and people are getting cars. Saul Goodman!

There's also hardly any cars out on the test track though.

Uh oh is the oven fire coming back to haunt us? Forgot about that.

Anyone in MA take delivery yet? I’ve had my vin for 2 weeks and I can’t even get them to give me a straight answer. Most frustrating buying experience I’ve ever had.

You should go to your local Tesla and have them look up your VIN. They can see on their screen the progress of the car (think like tracking a package on UPS). Should at least be able to tell you if it's in transit or if it's arrived in MA.

Welp just got EDD smoked.
Originally April 23 order, now July 1- Aug 5.

Just received this message on the App, I have had all my task complete since day of reservation. I replied back and asked more questions.

Has anyone done a test fit to see if the rears will fit on the front? Or would the offset be too far out?

It's a 235 vs a 275. Definitely steering interference if it fits it all.

What does that mean? I run 265s square on a '23 MP3. I LOVE that over 235. I'm only asking if the wheel/tire clear

 

[jose3030]

Anyone else confused why Tesla is now offering the 1.99% APR on the RWD and LR? Do they not have enough sales for the quarter? Is this going to delay performance deliveries?

Weird, their site still has old rates.
The main site says 1.99% (landing page) but when you go to order, they're all old rates.

Here is a pic of someone from another group that went 265 square. I'd just like to try to use the forged OEM wheels.

1.99% at 36 month.

its 1.99% for 36 months only. If you click the banner with the advertisement rate, it takes you to "finance" and 4.99% (because it defaults to 60 months and thats the rate for 60 months).

You probably are aware, but the performance model does not get these subsidized rates.

I wonder the same thing!

 

[bdudney665]

Ordered same day, EDD was similar, 6/12-6/30 and then I got a VIN, 5/20 and delivery request 5/26 for anytime starting 6/1, took delivery yesterday.

Goodness every time I see these red pics I know I made the right choice

Rear oem wheel has an offset of +45. +45 would push the wheel in and most likely hit the knuckle.
