Performance Waiting Room

I'm with you, just did the same thing and abandoned my White/White for a MSM/White that was already in transit to a relatively nearby location. No delivery date yet, but I just made the call earlier. I got the exact same details of a potential wait of 3-6 weeks for white. Here's hoping for a quickVIN/delivery turnaround.
Binary sloth, darn man- you were my light in the dark since you had same configuration and ordered before me. I was following your delivery closely. Now I am the one with the white on white unicorn in the waiting list. lol
MSM is also beautiful.

Yeah I think for some reason white and red are not being produce. However my VIN was emailed to me and delivery appointment popped up today early. Congrats on joining the MSM/White family
 
Quick update from my end. After expressing my immediate need of a new car to the OA, I was offered a black/white instead of white/white immediately. So I pulled the trigger based on Tholland's advice thinking I could wrap it in satin pearl white with the money saved. I got the VIN emailed but I don't have it showing up in the account / no delivery date yet. Fingers crossed the rest of the process goes quickly.
 
I was expecting an email notification, but good thing I logged into my Tesla.com account. Received a VIN and a delivery date of May 7th. I ordered 4/12. There is light at the end of the tunnel. Crossing fingers for a smooth process and a decent build.
 
One thing that I forgot to mention here that's relevant. One week before I got my car, the person from Tesla that was trying to find me an inventory car said that if I was to wait the car that I configured (white/white) was manufactured, it could take 6 weeks.. I got the car in the following week...

Is your point that what they say and what happens are rarely similar? I agree with that.

We are hoping everything holds steady and goes smoothly.

I totally agree, I said before what the guy told me could be smoke in Mirrors but it did kinda link up with what is currently going on. When I went up to Tesla yesterday for small appointment with our other 3, they had 4 model 3, one white with black, and that person had been waiting for 5 weeks for that. Everything else was black and or blue. Not even a MSM and not one performance model at all.
