Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

Tesla deliver at the end of quarters more often than not, because it looks better on their sales figures. I would be surprised if anyone gets their car in August, to be honest.
Had the same text as kevincredible above this morning. Just received a call from Tesla to ask confirmation that I can take the car within the two week window 12th-26th August. When I said I'd prefer to delay to the 1st September if possible, the response was that would result in a cancelled order and going back to the end of the queue. Like you I thought they preferred to deliver in the last month of the quarter to have as many registrations as possible in that month for their sales figures, but maybe there as so much cars to deliver to catch up from Q2 they may not care.

Got my text also today that I'll be getting a delivery date assigned.
Also got an email today asking for pictures of my existing Model 3 LR for Trade in purposes. Will clean up the car and send some pictures to them to see what the new value will be! Wish me luck! :)

Looks like my config is the same as yours, I ordered 2nd April but my edd changed to 26/08/2022 - 25/09/2022...

No vin... So tell them I'm happy to swap with you and take it by the 26th Aug😅
 
Also in the same boat as a few other folks; narrower window recently then "your date is being calculated; we will contact you soon" text this morning.

So judging by the delivery dates being given to people and there order dates being just before mine or around the same time, and my edd now being 26th Aug - 25th September.. I must be pretty close to the top of the queue...

So I "could" get lucky if someone doesn't take delivery and be late aug / early September or be in a batch due to arrive before the end of Q3...

Just a hopeful guess.

Just had text for delivery on aug 25th. Really excited but have the concern that many of you have and wanting 72 plate. Anyone had any experiencing on delaying the car for a short period of time?
So I just replied to the text saying if it was possible to change to 1st September and I got a response (like the first text) saying it’s 1st September for delivery now! Easy to do in case anyone wondered

Was originally offered either 27th, 29th, 30th and 31st August.

I am going to be away and will not get back until the 2nd September.

Had to call them to arrange new date - they made it clear that you will only be able to delay delivery by 7 days against the first day offered, so was offered either 2nd or 3rd September.

Also asked when will I likely be able to get the vehicle registration details for insurance purposes and was told that will be sent across in a few weeks. So still unsure if it will be a 22 or 72 plate.
