Performance Waiting Room

[R A P]

Hello all,

Order date: August 30, 2019
Model: M3P Blue Exterior/White Interior, w/o FSD
Location: Chicago

Timeline:
8/30: Placed order at the store after test drive
9/6: Received email from Sr Delivery Experience Specialist confirming payment, trade-in (Carmax match), and other details.

Communication with the Delivery Experience Specialist and my advisor has been really good. They respond quickly and really straight-forward. Currently waiting for a VIN.

My delivery adviser informed me today that they will have my car to me by the end of the month. Order placed 9/8.

Pretty good. About a month faster than a lot of people waiting in here - consider yourself fortunate they didn’t tell you Halloween...

Anyone in a “Pay in Full First” state have any idea how long it takes the car to arrive from CA once payment is confirmed? I’m hoping less than a week at this point.

I did have to call my advisor every time there was an update, they’re too busy.

Finally heard from Tesla for the first time since my order on 8/24 a few mins ago. They texted me and said to go on my account and complete my delivery profile which has been complete since 8/24. They then told me to update all sections of my profie which there was no way to update the items as they all just had checkmarks next to them. Finally she asked me to get my trade ins payoff amount, per diem and due date.

I provided that last bit of info so we will see what happens next.

I'm just glad I finally heard something from someone.

I got that text yesterday. Complete silence since. Mine seemed like an automated system that only gets checked by a person if an unexpected response comes in. My reply I told them I wanted to proceed but I have a payoff that isn't showing in my Tesla account. They responded saying they needed a picture of the title. So I had to again reply that I had a pay off and didn't have a title in hand. It was kind of weird.

I'd like to see a reputable source confirm that. I'd say the likelihood of that being true about ANY Michelin tire is close to zero.

They will!
Had them on my RS. You definitely will ruin them on this car.

Well I won’t, but people who have to deal with winter will...if the temp goes below 20 (allegedly). I’d be concerned if there was a high ambient air temp limit lol...

What accessories did you get? I ordered floor mats and a center console wrap, trying to figure out what else I might need.

Console wrap, memory card & reader, floormats, cable mgmt, 14-50 adapter, 14-50 outlet installed

btw if you are looking for a good deal on ceramic coating or ppf, PM me. I had my one car done at OCD and another done at 68 Auto Detail.

Just reached out to Tesla inquiring about the MVPA agreement for my vehicle. They informed me that I'm estimated to take delivery sometime during the last week of September.

Hey everyone

While my communication experience with Tesla hasn't been negative like some others (my SA has been in contact with me frequently since my order), it hasn't actually netted to anything more than knowing the car isn't ready. At this point, checking each day feels a bit like watching the hands on the clock and wondering why time moves so slowly.

Order Date: August 12th, 2019
Model: M3P White Exterior & Black Interior w/ FSD
Location: San Francisco, CA

My biggest concern at this point is that my lease is up the last week of this month and I'm definitely trying to avoid having to find alternative transportation for an undetermined amount of time. *crosses fingers*

South bay (San Jose) here. Ordered 8/26. P3D+ Red & White interior w/ FSD. No updates what so ever. Not even Tesla financing call/emailed me. Perhaps, I should also contact my SA.

What’s a good price for ceramic?

What’s a good price for ceramic?

Depends on where you live and what you choose but in northern California it can be anywhere from $900-2000+.

My lease ended a week ago (after extending it an extra month). I’m now ubering, snagging rides from coworkers, and walking. I may resort to hitchhiking soon, lol. If I don’t hear anything by Monday I’m just going to rent a car for a week. Super disappointing

I know your pain. When and what did you order?

My car got totaled from getting rear ended back in July. I let Tesla know this when I placed my order on August 3rd and they told me I’d get my car within two weeks and hopefully even sooner than that. Here I am about six weeks out from my order with no car. Been living like this for a month and a half now. Not very fun.

Right there with you. My car was totaled 7/30 and after the guys insurance finally agreed to total mine, I ordered 8/15. Had rental till 8/20 thought I'd be fine for one more week. Jokes on me. My rental car is now like a car payment.

 

[The Moosh]

I ordered 9/5
P3D+ white/black, autopilot. Lease, no trade in.
No vin. It will probably be weeks before I hear anything.

Wow...I ALSO totaled my car.
Funny enough, I ordered my Model 3 and took/ my car out to be appraised since Tesla wasn't giving me enough for a trade it. I got a good trade in value and totaled it on the way home from the appraisal.
At first I was pissed, but I ended up getting $5k more through insurance than I would have from any trade in or selling it, so financially it worked out.

However, I haven't had a car since August 3.
I pick up my new Model 3 on 9/20 -- 7 weeks after I ordered. 7 weeks with no car.

Luckily for me, I live in Chicago an we have good mass transit.

All these stories of accidents on trade.....this is why my trade is parked in the protected garage until I get rid of it!

Happy Friday Waiters! What have we gotten ourselves into.
