Wow. Been lurking here for about ten days and everyone says once you get the VIN things move fast. This is nice...much better than my last few purchases in a traditional car dealer.

So...I got my VIN today. I've ordered the NEMA 14-50 adapter I'll need for charging. Also ordered the Quick Bandit front tag mount. I plan on ordering the MAXpider floor mats.
I'm considering getting the OEM Model 3 Mud Flaps. Tesla page says "4x front mud flaps, 2 sets in two different sizes." The Tesla how-to page says "install the mud flap or splash guards." Then later talks about 1st Generation kit and 2nd Generation kit. I'm guessing the kit lets one install longer mud flap or a shorter splash guard? Anyone know? Should I consider another brand?

1 day after my pick up and the wireless charging pad stops working. Even tried the reboot and doesn't work after that either!

Yes. I got my VIN past Wednesday night. Got the text to schedule delivery Thursday morning. Picked up my car yesterday.
Took delivery today and I'm just so happy everything went well. This is definitely the most unique experience I've had buying anything tbh. The Tesla delivery person drove it up to our driveway, and I had more than enough time to look everything over. After reading so many horror stories online, I did mentally prepare myself for all the issues I was sure to find, possibly even having to reject the car. It was nothing like that. I'd consider myself to be someone with mild OCD, but I could not find a single defect with the exterior of the vehicle. There was some sticky residue left on the trim, and a bit of dirt. The one "issue" I had is a single small blemish on the inside trim. That was the only thing I felt I needed to photograph and document, but still...not sure it's even worth reporting. Other than that, there were two pieces of tape left on the inside that was kinda weird, but I just peeled them off. That's it. Handed over the check, and he drove off in our trade in vehicle. The whole experience was smultaneously exciting, confusing, amazing, anxiety-inducing, and wonderful. Considering the $1000 price drop and the CVAP grant, it almost feels like a stole it. Even the bank teller was like "This is how much you're paying in total for the car?!" when I was getting the check.

Yes, I’m in LA. I ordered on 2/23. When did you order? Hopefully your VIN is coming really soon.
Ordered 2/26, they refreshed today saying 23-31 I’m hoping I get some good news tomorrow.
Picked up this car just 2 hours ago from Manteca. Ordered 5/6... Got vin 5/21... Received call same day. Pick up same day... I live 1 hr from fremont factory. CVAP was applied same day.. reflected as a 5k deposit.. hope this onsite helps someone. Everything was clean. No scratches no issues that I saw. Thank you

I thought CVRP is done after you purchase your car? I know CVAP is the one before you purchase it.

I can't help but notice most people get white paint. Is it because its included in the price?
It’s what my wife told me to get.
I bet you tomorrow morning you will... It happens all so fast afterwards... Just remember that your key cards are in your glovebox... Open with the button on screen... Lol I couldn't find my keycards until mrs told me to check glove...
