We (USA reservation holders) might have a little longer to wait... lets hope they continue with US invites too

Tesla starts Model 3 launch in Canada, confirms starting price at $45,600 CAD

Not going to be happy if my march to may delivery is jumped by a mid 2018 reservation....arrg...I have tsportline leather seats and carbon fiber interior accents patiently waiting in a box. Just kidding, they are not patient! I want an invite!

I won't be happy either. I live in Texas and my AC went out last year. I can't do another summer.

For the non-owners receiving invites, can you also post when your anticipated delivery was according to the Tesla delivery estimator? Thanks.

same as everyone else 3-6 weeks.

Okay, Tesla, just move the estimation out a year already so I'll stop obsessing and carry on about my life.

My Tesla page no longer gives an estimated delivery date. I was Jan-Mar, pushed to Apr-Jun, and now nothing.
I also dont have the option of selecting first available or any of the others.

No, if I recall, there were a few people that received invites that originally had an April-June Delivery Estimator time frame. That's the one I was referring to. What I'm getting at is if they received their invites sooner than originally anticipated.

ok, yes to that also. I was listed as Late 2018 when I got my invite. Much sooner than anticipated.

Do you have any theory why they would have jumped you ahead like that?
Did you call someone and ask to let you configure?
Did you fill out some form in the store after you reserved?
Did you take a Model S test drive?
It seems like there is some magic that is jumping some people ahead. Like those people who ordered online in San Diego who got to configure before people who waited in line at the store.

How many have been invited would probably be less than 10K and of those maybe 3K have actually done so.

I'm pretty sure this estimate is very low. They have certainly invited more than 10K people.

I agree that they've invited more than 10K people. I was only referring to line waiters though so that didn't include employees or probably most owners who have been invited.

We don't need any of that optimism here..... I want to check but am afraid of the crushing "Next Steps" rejection...

Does it appear that any invites went out on Wed. the 21st?

I don't think many Canadian Tesla employees are posting here and they would have been the ones to get them, so we won't know exactly.

Then the $12,000-$13,000CDN LR option, paint and shipping fees put the car at about $60,000+ with a cloth interior, no sunroof, no heated steering wheel and manual seats. If a Ford government gets in for Ontario the $14,000 EV credit will be gone. This is sure making the Infiniti Q50 look really good. Might just have to cancel my reservation. The savings on the car will pay for a lot of gas.

Are you really surprised by this price? Considering exchange rates, it is almost identical to the US price.

I am just beginning to doubt that there will be a market for 500,000 units a year in the sedan market at those prices.

Well, as the day rolls on, you can avoid that particular flavor of disappointment by experiencing a diffused variant of it vicariously through this forum when you notice A) very few to no "I got my invite!" posts or B) more than a handful of "no invite yet" posts.

What changed that has you thinking this now and not before?

Meanwhile my car gets closer and closer to this happening everyday without an invite....
