Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

[Sandee3]

Ordered 11/7, she arrived today

The paint looks really really good, zero flaws noted with quick inspection

The hatch is a little crooked (left side more forward than the right) the drivers door is sunk in a little, and the passenger door is a little out. All pretty subtle.
The door/fender and frunk hatch lines are all perfectly straight and even.

The drivers door is a little hard to close, this is the most noticeable flaw overall.

I am very happy about the paint, it looks like BMW paint.

The screen got hung up in the radio controls, had to do a reboot.

The car is a hoot to drive, but is far from balanced. There is way more power than handling or braking!

So happy your waiting ordeal is over! Congrats...beautiful ride!

Congrats! The multicoat blue is amazing. And expect that power. I am still impressed with my blue LR AWD VIN 32XXX. But the time had come for AWD Performance for me.

Preaching to the chorus.....

Just got back from picking up my MP3 and....... holy s!@* !!! I am blown away. I have never been in or driven a Tesla. First drive time I ever sat in one was today at delivery. I had done so much research but it is far better than expected. It does make NA cars seem dumb. I am a super fan now. So damn fast. Way faster than my previous car, Hellcat, with none of the drama. Accelerates so fast It hurts your brain!!! LOL. "Accelerates" is not the word... more like teleports.

Delivery went super smooth. Was done in 30 mins. 20 of that was inspections. FLAWLESS!!! Maybe my standards are low but I couldn't find nothing obvious wrong with the car. Guy next to me refused delivery because has roof glass was not perfectly aligned and was pissed. I was happy AF. Smiled and waved as I drove passed him and fart horned at him. The only nip pick I can say is that they put a ton of tire shine on and it kick up all over the side.

I honestly couldn't be happier and impressed with the product. Price was a little of a reach for me but this is possibly the best toy I have ever bought.

Will post more pics tomorrow after I clean her up.

Still no VIN for me in Western Canada. Hope I will get it these few day.

You got Boombox? What firmware you on?

Yes I’m also interested to know, mine came with old-assed firmware.

I just checked and I have old software also. Just put in a service request. Just realized I do not have Boombox. I had selected fart on horn in emission test and thought it was working. I guess the guy never heard my fart. Oh well.

Haven’t had a chance to take to many pictures, but the day has come! Car was dropped off, and my trade in was driven off. Pretty quick transaction. Going over the car I noticed a gap on one side of the spoiler where it mounts to the car, a rock chip in under the front bumper, and a scratch on top of one of the tail lights which is barely noticeable. Looking at the cars data, looks like the guy dropping it off punched it during the trip . Not to happy about that, but it is what it is.

Anyone in TEXAS:
How long from VIN until you got a payment link? My SA is missing in action. I called the generic number and they told me to wait for a delivery text, then I can pay (?). This seems strange since in Texas you have to pay for the car upfront, then it can be shipped to the state.

Thank you

Call your delivery location and enter the buttons for sales/delivery. I got someone local on the delivery team to move everything along - closed out the insurance proof and setup the payment stuff for me.

I got the email to pay within moments of a VIN assignment. I’m in Dallas, TX and I selected the cash option.

Totally!

Same. Hoping in the next day or so. I see some stock in Toronto and Calgary now so the cars are coming.

Hi folks - checking in here with my info. Ordered a White/white 3 Performance, 1/31 in Honolulu, HI. Received a VIN a few weeks ago, think it was on 3/2. I'm currently part of "team blank" for estimated delivery, but it has shifted back and forth between dates and weeks, all around approx mid to end March. Since I was blank on the delivery estimate for a few days and needed to set up financing, I called the local showroom for some info. My SA wasn't there, but they were super helpful. Found out my car is in Oakland, CA ready to get on a ship, and they are tracking a 4/3 delivery date. First Tesla for me...super excited!

Glad I'm not the only one that almost got a headache from the first 0-60 I pulled in my M3P lol.

I felt a little woozy after flooring mine the first time. It really is almost too much. Too much fun that is!
