I ordered my SR + deep blue with white interior in late Aug my SA told me I should get the 263 battery which I want since I'm in the cold here in Boston. However he told me if I don't accept my Vin when prompted (went from Jan to late November) then high probability I'll get the LFP 253

SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

Right. Mine is 4446-826=3620. And, indeed, I do have the “daily” and “trip” delineation. So I guess that settles it on how to tell if your car has an NCA or LFP battery. As many have stated before, there are minor pros/cons based on your use case, but for most of us, it’s a non issue. E.g. my car will see a daily commute of 40 miles in temperate San Diego weather => either battery would’ve been okay.
New M3 SR+ orders Est. Delivery now February. I wonder if orders are pouring in due to EV Tax Credit draft language?
This is for whatever I ordered in July from the website. I don't know or particularly care about what battery I get, as long as I can drive away in my car soon
Got the call from Buena Park to pick up my car early yesterday. Delivery was a breeze. Seats had some large marks that wiped off easily.
Awesome car. Definitely worth the wait!

that’s helpful. Are you picking up at the Charlotte or Raleigh location? I haven’t made my tentative pick up appointment yet. I guess i should call my SA or someone to get something on the books until i get the final text last minute. Have you received the vision agreement?
My EDD is 9/26-9/30 for my LFP order (my 7/18 NCA was automatically cancelled a few days ago).
Well I’ve had an interesting last few hours. Had my SR+ on order with EDD of November 10-30.
Saw a Red SR+ on inventory and grabbed it. Ended up cancelling it since it had some extra costs (didn’t put those out on the page) and it ended up canceling both my orders and now I’m out $500. And they couldn’t restore my original order
Pretty ticked about the whole thing and just about to give up. Currently drive a ‘19 Accord Touring that’s a great car with 26,000 miles so might just keep driving that for a little while longer.

I am picking up in Raleigh. I called the Raleigh office but got someone from the central Tesla team (I think). He was really helpful actually. I haven't receive the vision agreement. I dont actually even know what that is. I uploaded my insurance info. Did you have to do anything to get the LFP or did Tesla automatically do that? I think it is interesting that so many EDDs are end of Sept. It makes sense with a truck or two arriving on the 26th.
Did you personally cancel both orders? Be persistent calling Tesla. Keep your reservation numbers. You should be able to get at a new reservation for what you want without any additional order fee. It will take some patience on your part, but I'm confident you can get it done.
I'm curious how you guys are placing orders that have EDDs so soon? I placed my order in July and just got the EDD this weekend, and online it looks like EDD dates are out into 2022...
I’m picking up in Charlotte. I think the vision agreement has something to do with the autopilot on the car but don’t quote me on that i may be completely wrong. I just know it’s another document we have to acknowledge. I just haven’t received any new docs under my account yet.
My first order was placed on July 18 (NCA battery) with the EDD bouncing all over the place until it stayed on Oct 16-Nov 2 for a few weeks. Around the end of Aug, Tesla sent out an email to folks with Q4 EDD mentioning that they have the M3 w/ the LFP battery available with a quicker delivery timeframe. I waited a week and then decided to pull the trigger when they had their 2nd drop on their inventory site.
Based on what i am reading, the LFP battery may be the battery type for M3 SR+ model going forward since the range on their order site is now showing 262.
i think the end of sept EDD is to have Tesla push as many cars ASAP before quarter end.
My guess (you’ll have to confirm with your SA) that since you order in July and did not jump on the LFP available inventory that you may get an NCA battery M3.
These were "existing inventory" orders that have the LFP battery vs the custom order NCA battery.
I have the same car also ordered on 9/3, still no EDD currently. I was hoping to take delivery this week. Who knows!
Same car, same order date and no EDD either. I wonder if us CA orders would even receive before EOQ. I've contacted my SA and he doesn't have any info either. Original NCA order back in 5/22....still no car.
