Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

[Not That M3]

For those of you planning to modify your car after taking delivery, what’s your plan when it comes time to sell the car?

Does modifying the car affect resale value or the ability to trade in? Do you hang on to the stock parts that you replace and put them back on the car before selling?

Lowering and suspension, yea. Will be less of a market for the car and typically I wouldn’t want to buy a car that’s been lowered. I used to mod quite a bit but I’m planning on leaving the suspension stock. It’s generally a good idea to put the suspension back to stock before selling.

Man, inching closer to my EDD window is really wigging me out, I'm so antsy to get the damn car I can hardly focus on chores or getting my work done

Texted to see if I could get a ping of where my vehicle was

Alright everyone!!! I just got a call from a Tesla advisor and he had a few questions to ask me. He went over my account to make sure everything looked good and asked if I had a trade in. Then I asked him if that means I am close to receiving a VIN. He let me know that if I am on his call list that means I am very close and he expects my window to not get pushed any further and I should be receiving a text soon. So fingers crossed.

minor cosmetics mods should be fine tbh but sometimes some new customers don't like the mods and prefer stock.

Hey all, been lurking a while but am gonna put my hat in the ring:

Location: Dallas TX

M3P MSM black interior No FSD

OD: 3/10
Current EDD: May 17-27th…..no VIN though so I’m a bit worried.

Went to the Tesla delivery center today to drop off my existing license plates since they need it ahead of the delivery day. My car arrived today.

Here it is in all its bug splatter glory

So it would appear your M3P was loaded backwards on the transporter. At least your front end is clear. Good luck with the delivery!

 

[kpinthebay]

Well ladies and gents, the time has come. Tesla called and they're delivering the car tomorrow. To my house. And I live like 5 min from a service center. She said they need to get cars off the lot. It was nice knowing you. Good luck to all.
Ordered 3/5. Black on black m3p

Interesting! Same config and location, ordered a day after you. My EDD is May 24 - Jun 7 though...wonder why our EDD is so different.

 

[cpayne5]

Got my VIN today, as well. EDD is May 25-28. Starting the financing process today.

Financing is in place and EDD changed to May 21-27.

When did you get your VIN?

No idea. The whole process is pretty weird to begin with . I’m just wondering if being this close to the first date in the range with no VIN is normal at this point

I've been in my two week window twice now, without VIN, and each time it got pushed back

My first 11 day window is tomorrow, and no VIN so expecting another push.

When is the cutoff for a new model year? If I get a car delivered in July will it be a 2022 and if it gets delivered in October will it be a 2023?

 

[Ben Tarver]

I am curious about this as well. With my works car program i have to have a car newer than 5 years old. So if my model year is 2023 i can keep it till 2028

 

[kpinthebay]

When did you get your VIN?

Maybe around 4/20 or so. VIN to delivery was pretty long. I live near Fremont.

Tesla doesn't have model years. They just change parts whenever it makes sense to do so. Generally, it's best to order the vehicle when you are prepared to purchase one and reject the vehicle if it is missing a new, major feature. With that in mind, there will always be something new and better around the corner. The fear of missing out (FOMO) can be a troubling feeling.

Third day In a row it's pushed back a single day

This is what’s been happening to me since May 5th. Right after 10 o’clock this morning it will update to today’s date being the start of the window. The local dealership is waiting for the car. Ordered it on 2/21 and received VIN on 4/25.
