m3p pick up date is Saturday. Got a text to schedule earlier since it's there, but Friday, the only day I could pick up early, is grayed out. Anyone ever show up a day early and take delivery?

I emailed the store because I was supposed to pick it up today and there could have been some weather issues. They moved me up themselves to Tuesday.

Picked up today. Everything seemed to be as it should be...but I did notice the bottom of my steering wheel leather looked to be poorly stitched. Anyone else seeing this on theirs?

Same here, OD 2/23. But I'm in NY.

Same for me

Los Angeles, CA
EDD Feb-Mar

It's been a week and the estimate still hasn't moved.

I texted the SA asking if they had any info since Feb is impossible at this point. Response “Hello, the estimated delivery window on your account should update soon.”

1) there is no leather in any tesla. 2) ask them to fix it, for sure.

I just got my title today and it says loan is from well fargo but its us bank…is that going to cause a problem in the future?

Picked mine up last week but didn't. I had it all of 30 minutes which was enough to drop it off to get PPF, ceramic, and ceramic tint, and tinted taillights. One week later it's finally in my driveway. Working on the blackout badges next.

TL ; DR

After thinking about this for quite some time, I have decided to no longer enforce "only model specific waiting rooms" in the model 3 subforum. This means, in effect, that I will no longer merge all waiting room type posts into one of these three waiting rooms (SR+/RWD -- LR---Performance).

People will be free to make other waiting rooms if they so desire.
====================================================

(A bit more context - fairly long)

The reason I previously enforced "only 3 model specific waiting rooms, instead of various regional waiting room" is because there isnt that much that can be sleuthed out about Teslas delivery process by splitting it up by region.

Additionally, it becomes a slippery slope.

Someone makes "California waiting room",
Someone else makes " California - Southern California" waiting room,
Then someone else makes "California - SoCal - Los Angeles Red Model 3" waiting room
Then "California - Los Angeles - Red / White - 19s, Ordered after Jan 2023" waiting room,
Then you finally end up with someone creating - "California - Los Angeles - By Randys Doughnuts -Blue / White - 19s, Spoiler ordered between Jan 15 and Feb 30 Waiting room"

For evidence of this, one only needs to look at the model Y subforum, and see the first couple pages of the Model Y ordering subforum for proof:

These various waiting rooms take over the first couple of pages of that subforum, and basically become separate threads for a few people each in the specific circumstance to chat back and forth about stuff, and (im)patiently wait, together.

Even with the above, however, this makes the model 3 subforum different than the model Y subforum, for no reason other than I didnt want it to look like the above. I have decided that in this case, letting people (im)patiently wait in all those separate threads isnt necessarily a bad thing, if thats something people want to do. So, If people want to make various waiting rooms for regions, and areas, go for it, I will no longer force merge them back into these threads.

When asking TSLA for an update:

Their response was:

“VIN assignment is 100% automated. Your delivery date depends on several factors, including configuration and manufacturing availability.
Your current estimated delivery window in your account shows to be Feb-March, this is subject to change. We will not have any further insight until a VIN has been assigned. We'll notify you when it's time to schedule your delivery appointment.”

All we can do is wait. Not even SA’s know the status. Can’t blame em though

Finally the 510 text saying 1-2 weeks for VIN! Ordered on 1/17 so it took 41 days to get some news? Or was it because I went to the showroom and “ask”?

Well, at least there’s light at the end of the tunnel…

EDD been updated to 3/3 to 3/13… it’s been 3 days since the 1-2 weeks VIN Text.

So today, without the car - went and made appointment for PPF (matte finish), ceramic tint all around including windshield, ceramic coating. Already spending money even before delivery… dang!
