SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

[Scooter_in_Sac]

There must have been a lot of orders between October 8 and October 24....
On October 8, someone else from this forum ordered the exact same car as me and already received it. And I havent even gotten a VIN.

It doesn't mean anything of the sort. I'm aware of three RWD orders who were later OD in January, identical cars, same state and they have their cars already. There is no rhyme or reason.

Even after a VIN assignment you could be effected by the charge port issue...even in the LR forum some are waiting 2+ weeks for the charge port to be installed after the delivery center receives the car....

While we wait...This is why you decided to go with Tesla.

I'm personally amazed by the ground covered by a company that was not even existing 18 years ago.

I upgraded my wheels to 19" today as well as interior color to white. Let's see what's going to happen with delivery date.
As of today my EDD is June 28 - August 09
OD 9/16/2021

Is it me or the new trending expression in the car esthetic business is CERAMIC?

• Ceramic wax here.
• Ceramic vegan leather protection there.
• Ceramic tinted windows this way.

Was it cause of the charge port?

Don't forget us August and September orders. I think there might still even be some July orders.

Oh definitely!! I was just comparing it to someone else that had the exact same pick up location as me (Vancouver, BC, Canada).

No, SMS sys my car is not yet arrived.

That is a nice thought but some of us are dealing with very tough mitigating circumstances. For example, I have no vehicle right now.

I don't know how much watching the EDD is going to help your situation. If you want a car right now, perhaps explore the possibility of buying a used car, or a non-Tesla? Dealerships exist for a reason; they have cars available immediately.

You may want to ask in the LR AWD waiting room, since people who switch from SR to LR often move over to that room.

From previous posts I’ve seen, you will likely receive your car 4-8 months earlier if you switch to LR.

Got no car either, I've been using the bus system to commute to work. I feel your pain it is brutal (especially with the down pouring rain in seattle), but an 8 month wait from your order date is what it is. Hope you get your car in due time though.

I guess it does as much for me as asking this does for you - nothing. I’m aware of how cars are sold and what my options are. But if I’m dropping $45K, I don’t think asking for a crumb of accurate information, from the company with whom I’m interacting, is too much to ask. These aren’t wild expectations – I need to plan my life with some accuracy. Multi-month swings and delays without end just simply won’t do. They’re making billions - they can and should do better. If you find this acceptable by all means lean in but don’t dole out vague criticism poorly disguised as (unsolicited) advice.

Thanks for the update and congrats on the car! I hope you enjoy the hell out of it. What's the best part about it (besides the obvious of receiving the car)?

Congrats on the new addition.
I’m just curious, is it the LFP battery?

Perhaps this was a poor attempt because I ended up upsetting you, and I apologize for that, but I was trying to suggest a way for you to not be so frustrated - ditch Tesla and go for something else. This is the way Tesla does business, and if you don’t like it, you can protest with your wallet. I didn’t realize you were just venting, and I do not mean to criticize your choice.

Wow! The order date is one day apart and Same EDD! Hope that upgrades can move up the delivery date.

If it helps you guys feel any better the LR I had delivered from MA to FL (and paid the $2,000 shipping fee for) doesn’t have the charge port that they forgot to mention. Car has a hold on it until charge ports come in May 27th is the ETA. I was told this car was ready to go. Talk about communication and forthrightness
