Congrats. Enjoy the car. Any idea what rear motor it has and when your car was built? See below for an AWD example (taken from behind the rear driver side wheel).

Just placed an order for a midnight silver sleeper! Test drove it and did the all important car seat test. I fit just fine with a Diono radian in the middle rear facing and was able to get three across (2 Diono and 1 Graco infant seat).
They had about 10 on the lot in Chesterfield, MO (St. Louis). One red with 19’s otherwise all 18’s.

I got my M3P- last week but I haven’t had a chance to test out the top speed yet, anyone else?
I think you are correct. There were two in stock in Colorado, but not the color we wanted. Our rep found one in Salt Lake and it is on a truck to Colorado now for a delivery this coming Friday. When we configured online it initially shows up as a "real" Performance Model 3 on the front end with its normal pricing, and then shortly later I received an amended order which showed the "stealth" specs and pricing.
I have to believe this is why Tesla is sticking with its annual guidance of delivering at least 360k cars. Even after a record quarter last quarter, I believe they will have to average over 100k for the next two quarters to hit that number. Just doing a few anecdotal checks that are in sync with this thread, it does seem by offering the "stealth" MP3, Tesla has spurred at least short term demand by flipping the software switch on existing inventory and driven in new buyers or induced current owners to upgrade earlier than they might have otherwise.
I am not into the specifics of some of the hardware as others, but after reading this it seems as if by doing this there is also a positive margin impact, albeit small, but after Tesla was hammered by Wall St for their automotive GM in the most recent quarter, if my assumptions are true, this "stealth strategy" makes a ton of sense.
No update on my p3d- either, still on 2019.15. I have great WiFi connection in my garage so it must not be that.

I picked up mine this past Friday and there was a software update waiting to be installed. We scheduled it to be install early the next morning 2:00 am. Anyway, 2019.15.105 was installed (I don’t know what version was previously installed).
No custom builds but there are a lot out there. About 10 in St. Louis when I was there. Mostly black but all colors were available.
I can't say, but my OA found one in Salt Lake City which is over 500 miles away and it wall all pretty straight forward.
Carbon spoiler. 20 inch performance wheels powdercoated. Alum pedals. These are just basic items. Also have carbon signal covers,carbon mirror caps,xpel clear bra w xpel interior kit,tint,matte screen protector and some other goodies.
