Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

[Rodney!]

Congrats, I ordered a month before you and my EDD is almost a month later. I’m in CT. Tesla works in mysterious ways.

He ordered a red car, and you and I ordered silver cars (similar OD and EDD). In this thread, historically the red cars have have build priority over our "cheap" silver ones, given the same general location.

I debated on changing to red, but after going to the local SC and comparing the colors side by side, i am happy with my "cheap" color and the associated additional wait time.

Hey everybody, I'm a long-time lurker of TMC Forum who's been patiently waiting to place an order of M3P. Ever since I saw the estimated delivery window increase from May 2022 to June/July 2022 in a span of week I finally decided to pull the trigger. Here's another piece of data we can use for tracking.

OD: 3/26
EDD #1: June/July 2022
EDD #2: 6/3/22 - 7/15/22

It should show on your Tesla account (app or web). When you log in to your dashboard and then click Manage on your Tesla, it will show under your Model with and Estimated Delivery Date...

Hope this helps.

This is what i see

An EDD has not been populated for you as of yet. Likely due to your location.

Curious your location is AZ, while mine is MN. I ordered one day after you and my delivery date is MUCH later (Aug/Oct). Apparently I drew the short straw.

I would not worry too much about the initial EDDs. Mine was June - July right after I changed my order, and I am also in MN.

 

[Tony_YYZ]

Oh man, this sucks.

My EDD just updated:
Ordered March 9

As Sheef said, I wouldn't too much worry about it! It seems like Tesla is backdating their estimated delivery time window on their website quite a bit based on the trend shown here of how most people's EDDs are being updated to be earlier than anticipated. I will also be updating my EDD window here if I receive any updates. I'm guessing I will see an updated estimated delivery in a week or two.

One note to add: Demand increased when the EDD on Tesla’s website is massaged further down the road by a month or two. They have no incentive to make that initial EDD window realistic. They most likely use it as method to control order volume.

I am talking about the estimated date on te website pre ordering.

Do really red cars get build priority ? I didn't know that.
I was comparing side by side Midnight Silver with Red, too and I like the silver color but my local Tesla store had shiny red M3P and I really like it how it looks.
Car was going on sale in few days and they were asking me if I would like to buy it, it was a store demo car with no test drives (winter time on the summer tires car, so they didn't allow rides) I was ready to jump on it but this M3P was still with Intel procesor when everybody already was getting AMD. I wasn't in rush to get the car, so I said myself I can wait a little longer and here I am in line with you guys.

I would assume this is more applicable to quarter end. Tesla is eager report their profit per vehicle so if they prioritize the red ones they boost the profit per vehicle by almost $2k. This is also why FSD supposedly gets priority.

Well, that is what the past 6 months of this thread has proven. I have been paying attention to everyone's location/EDD, and the red cars seem to show up faster.

A month ago, i went into the local SC and was debating swapping to red to get the car faster, but after staring at the cars side by side, i opted to keep my silver order.

Exactly.

Tesla probably has a better margin on the Red color given the increase in customer cost, which if they make a few thousand cars in a production run it makes more business sense to sell all of them with the car that makes them more money.

I love the red too but I'm sticking to the MSM as that was my first choice even before it was an included no cost color. Plus I may have the car wrapped at some point.

 

[Bo_Kristensen]

If price/profit had any impact on taking delivery earlier, they completely overlooked my order.

Your specific build may not be in the production run.

lol, what did you get? I ordered Red on black no FSD the 22, then changed it to red on white a few days ago and my EDD is may 7 - june 11. The EDD when I was configuring the car originally was MAY.

I ordered after you and have an earlier EDD than you. I'm in California though, however I suspect that as my EDD gets closer that it will change and get pushed out. This sucks.

Such is EDD life.

Tesla factories are fuelled by our emotional turmoil from EDD changes. Probably.

 

[Takeaway]

While waiting for my Y I never got a single EDD change up until Tesla called me. Now my wife is waiting on her M3P- it's been weeks and the EDD hasn't budged. May 31-July 12. Sigh. And we got a great offer on our 2020 M3LR so it's being sold tomorrow.
