For me it feels like since blue is the least popular color, they haven't been making as many like the others. I ordered within 30 min EDD June 6 - June 30 Blue Black and my EDD dates hasn't seemed to change when everyone else did.

Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room
- Thread starter GreenHokie
- Start date
That was very similar to my exchange the other day. Guy showed me his screen that had an expected build date and expected delivery date. He said it was somewhat speculative until a VIN is assigned but there system did have expected dates that he shared. Now I also had a similar interaction a month ago and the system told the guy(different guy) that it would be delivered 5/26, but also did not have a build date. Swing and a miss on that so who knows.
guess this matches what we’ve been seeing all week…
VINs seem to have completely stopped the last 3 days. Lots of Bay Area folks in this thread with expected end of June deliveries and no VINs in sight.
And yet somehow there's extra inventory in the east coast that they're selling at a discount?

I am convinced that SC's really know little more than we do. That would explain how it seems 99% of the posts here are SC's giving out bogus info - they simply don't know much more than we do, especially if a VIN has not been assigned. I don't believe they are 'hiding' anything or intentionally misleading us. They want us to get our cars -almost- as bad as we do.
I haven't bothered checking/calling/texting my SC because I don't even have a VIN. Along the same line, the 'advertised delivery date' on the order page should say 'ESTIMATED'. I thought it did, but apparently not? I can imaging it would stink if you consider putting in an order and it says 'June', and then a few days later receiving an EDD update to "July-August" would be a bit of a rude awakening. It's like the whole 'price' looking lower until you read deeper and see 'potential gas savings' and 'potential tax credit'. It just has a fairly wishy-washy feeling to it, even if you're mindful.
I think the one extra MP3 on 'discount' was declared a 'demo model' with miles, or something? I thought I read that like... many pages ago, which was like an hour ago. LOL Things go fast here!
Wow. I wouldn’t have thought they would stop the line with this huge push they are trying to make.
Yep it was a demo model in silver spring MD that went quick.
Hm thanks for the feedback! So looks like it could mean something or completely mean nothing haha
Here's my theory on why the Bay Area customers are getting late June EDDs and why others further away have received their cars.
Assumptions
1. Tesla is trying to reach their Q2 revenue goal.
2. Telsla can only recognize their vehicle revenue when a customer has taken possession of their car (not just paid for it).
Then the most logical way to allocate cars is to first ship cars the furthest away from Fremont, CA allowing for travel time. Then at the very end of June, they can produce cars and Bay Area customers take possession of them within one or two days (because there is no travel time.)
If my theory is correct, I'll be on the late end of my 6/18-6/30 EDD.

that's 1st world problems for some of us.
others have trade-ins/sales pending and depreciating every week. plus potential increase rate changes.
After providing a VIN, how can Tesla not narrow down the delivery date to with in 10days?????? instead they keep moving it up/down.
Watching this compared to last week's video is concerning. I know they ship out tons but it just looks empty compared to last week.
Removing Aero Covers from the new 2024 M3PL
Does anyone have any tips or tricks to remove the large aero covers from the new M3P? I prefer the look without them and I'm willing to sacrifice the efficiency. Edit: And I really don't want to have to dismount! Reference:

No issue that I've noticed but now that you say it, I'll pay attention and report back.

Just a note and/or addition for your delivery checklist.
I remember in 2019 all the "don't worry about the issues and enjoy the car" Harumph... I expect 60k build quality on a 60k car! Or at least close.
- I have a small ding on the passenger side rocker panel (scheduled service - mobile offered). Check your rockers within 24 hours after delivery and schedule a warranty fix.
Seems others here have had same or worse. - I noticed that the bumper gaps in the front where the bumper meets the front quarter panel aren't even - no gap on left, 1/4" gap on right (added to above service, but will probably need a service center I'm guessing)

So just got back from the St.Pete location. Rep said the cars should be here Tuesday and they can start deliveries Wednesday if all goes well.
They have only received grey with white seats. This will be their first shipment with other color config vehicles.
They're only doing two slots a day 12pm, and 3pm. Mine had an hold due to the epa change. They need to adjust some documents. With that I have mine for set for Wednesday 12pm!!!
