Yup. It has it the heating steering wheel and new lights. What is the new dashboard trim?

The Model 3s from China have the dashboard trim (wood or white depending on the interior choice) wrap onto the doors
Thanks for the quick reply, it's the new "model Y style" dash trim as seen in the MiC ones. You would have noticed it, glad it's not part of your car.

Finally picked up my “Flux Capacitor”. FLAWLESS paint. No gaps. Only one problem I found was little humming noise when AC is on. You can hear it inside and outside little bit. Already scheduled my service appointment for next Thursday. At that time they will also install my home link
Congratulations! The humming (sounds like a subwoofer) is normal.

I reported it, but think I will just have a detailer do the paint. The alignment with the lights they can probably do. The hood, I will ask what it involves. I don’t want to have them mess it up more so will be conservative in what I have them do. You just put it in as a service call and go from there.

My last pictures... added a new sign in my garage today, just incase anyone was wondering what kind of car it is.
My Dad made it (retired guy) with aluminum letters, wood frame, and LEDs. Fun addition and the end of my "car project" which included repainting the garage, taking delivery of my Tesla, doing some light mods, a detail, and now this sign.
Planning to take it easy tomorrow before heading back to work Monday, and checking out everyone else's pics!

Let us know if your dad like to begin selling this.... I think you would have some takers here.My last pictures... added a new sign in my garage today, just incase anyone was wondering what kind of car it is.

I picked up my White on White yesterday from the Naperville dealership VIN 913XXX, Ordered 2/13. It was an interesting journey at the end. I pinged my SA early last week, as I saw VIN assignments happening a lot, and pre-prod inventory all over, asking for any insight the status of my order. She got back to me and said "There's one with the same specs at the Grand Ave location, it's got 50 miles on the odometer, someone did not take delivery of an order but you need to go down and get it (30 miles), and pay the higher Chicago sales tax. She said it was "born on" (i.e manufactured 2/18)" and she gave me the vin.
I told her I'd wait to see if a VIN got assigned on my existing order and let her know after the weekend if I wanted that car. Left it at that. Didn't want to mess up my order with manual intervention.
Next day, I'll be darned the exact same VIN gets matched to me on the Tesla website. Initially I was a little bothered - I did not say I wanted that car - and it had 50 miles on it. I was also worried with the earlier VIN that it might not have the new headlights and heated steering wheel (wheel is important in Chicago winters). After a little research I found out it had been auto assigned (no mistake by my SA), and that it ver likely had the headlights and wheel, so I decided to go with the flow rather than messing the whole deal up until June/Q2 End.
I messed up when scheduling my deliver (3/23, 3/25 and 3/26 times were available) because of work board meeting. Emailed my SA and asked if that could be fixed. They changed my delivery date to 3/23. I told her I'd be ready if they had the car prepped earlier, and sure enough yesterday (3/20) I got the call it was ready, so I went over and got it. I went ahead and paid 25K (I decided to finance the rest and buy 50K in TSLA stock to sit on for a few years instead of cash purchase to see how that works out).
Due to my concern about the car having 50 unknown miles on it, I went over it using checklists top to bottom during delivery (I never saw a human anyway so I took my time in their parking lot). The body panel gaps and paint finish are absolutely flawless - not a single defect I could find, paint is smooth and consistent. I think maybe that's helped by it not being an end of quarter mad rush construction vehicle maybe. Heated wheel and new headlights are on it, and the prep job by the location was impeccable - if anyone ever sat in/pawed over the car there was no signs - screen protector still on, and fresh paper mats. So I took delivery - very pleased with the car. I figure it must have chased me down after all that, LOL. Tesla destiny I guess.
Anyway here's some pics if you haven't seen a white Model 3 before, LOL. I am going to add a pillar delete kit, tint the windows to 20% ceramic, PPF the front bumper (4.2 million bugs decided to end their lives on it in my 10 mile drive home), clay and Opti-Coat it. I'm changing out all the interior lights and trunk lights, adding rear seat light bars, Tesla T puddles (hope I don't get sued), replacing the front struts, debadging it, putting white wrap on the center console, white wrap on the back steering wheel trim, and adding a dead pedal.

I don't have have my car yet so I can't confirm, but I was told that you can request a software update thru the app (just as you would a service repair). Worth a shot.
also, if that doesn't work I heard to try this...
"go into the software update screen (on the car), and tap the Advanced button 5 times. It will force your car to look for an update."
