Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

[RL-TheDude]

Hi everyone, new to the forum here and have an M3P white on white on the way. Ordered 10/21, delivery eta today’s date-12/23, picking up in Costa Mesa, CA. No VIN yet but hopefully any day now!

Regarding the wheel gap concerns, I have a lot of experience in photography and can confirm it’s an illusion, nothing to worry about. Camera angle and focal length of the lens makes the gap look bigger than it is in certain photos.

In the attached comparison, the red car picture was taken close up with a wide angle lens, causing a slight distortion and making the gap look big (notice the wheel also appears more oval, not circular like the white car.) The white car picture was taken farther back with a longer focal length lens, so the proportions are more accurate.

Anyway, good luck to you all still waiting!

I made the exact same observation on page 31...

ugh,... my delivery window went from 12/6 to 12/31 to 12/10 to 12/31 back to 12/6
and still no vin. Now I'm seeing people that ordered after me getting vins

Happened to me as well -- no VIN or any update from the SA either ... is this a pattern with others too?

I’m picking up at Costa Mesa too. Ordered in august but refused delivery to get the refresh model. I have no delivery window or VIN assigned yet. Just spoke with a rep from Costa Mesa and said there should be a large wave coming in within the next two weeks.

That's great news. Thank you for sharing.

We ordered the same day.

Congrats Man we ordered the same day. Hopefully I will get one soon as well.

Has anyone seen pictures of or taken delivery of a gray performance? I've only seen red, black and whites so far, but would love to see a picture of the gray

My buddy in NJ who ordered a month after I did, just got his vin today too, but he's getting an LR. What service center are you taking delivery out of?

Funny story, i referred myself so I get 2k miles free supercharging and I referred my buddy I get 1k on top of that

Thanks, I must have missed your post. Looks like others did too since there were multiple comments after yours going on about how "terrible" the wheel gaps are!

Maybe Tesla should invest in cryogenics so they can offer stasis while you wait for your car.

Anyone in the SF Bay Area get a VIN or delivery date. Seems to me like we are going to be the last to the party even though they are made here

Rep just told me my car is in the freemont parking lot and should arrive dec 18

Friend of mine was driving and saw an older lady driving my exact spec 2021 Model 3 in SoCal (he said it had satin black trim, the Uberturbine wheels, and temporary plates on it).
