SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

[Gloor]

Looks like driving in -20C with the ABRP map seems to show that I'll be totally fine. I tried Bromont, Jay Peak and Mont Tremblant and all is fine.
In the summer it all seems ok so I really hope that SR+ will not bite me back. I guess in the worst case I will sell it in a year or so and then get Model Y in AWD. I might even get lucky and get another rebate so the rebate I got on the 3 might cover the depreciation. We shall see.
It would be sweet though

Check out ABetterRoutePlanner. It will map out your route with supercharger spots based on distance of route, speed of the road you’ll be on, and elevation changes. Then you can adjust things like references watt/mile (though it’s pre-populated number is fairly accurate and maybe even a little conservative), amount of reference speed (110% would be 10% faster then the post speed for any given section of roadway), if there is a headwind or tailwind, and temperatures. (I’m addition you can add if there is rain or snow on the roadway but you’ll probably have winter tires if traveling in the snow, etc.)

From my understanding those models were created from real world data from Model 3s driving around. That might give you some more clarity if the SR+ will work for you.

Ordered 7/03. Red/Black. VIN was 400xxx.

Just checked my acccount and VIN disappeared. New date of sept. 12, 2019. I hope that’s a bug

Oh, that is not good.

Got a txt msg to schedule delivery, car in transit. Earliest is 8/6 which I chose. no vin in account yet.

Quick update. Manage to talk with a guy from corporate (not delivery center). He told me the sept date was weird and indeed a bug. Reverted the date back to July 31st and also took care of another pending issue with financing.

There was just an SR+ with 58 miles on CPO, black on black with Autopilot for $37,900. Now gone


Lowest price I've seen for a 3 on CPO yet. Price is dropping slowly but surely. Might just have to wait till end of year since I've already waited so long

4 SR+'s at $37,100. All white with black interior

Saw some SR’s going northbound on the 405 in Portland.

Got my VIN and the delivery date - August 15 at Lawrence Ave location in Toronto. The order was made on July 19.

I ordered a white SR+ on July 19th.

My sales rep marked me ineligable to get a VIN until july 29th due to new WA state sales tax rebate legislation.

Today, on the 30th I received a text that my car was in transit to Bellevue and I could schedule delivery.

I scheduled for Aug 2nd (exactly two weeks) but a few hours later my sales rep emailed me and informed me that they needed a couple extra days to sort out the delivery/purchase paperwork to take advantage of the sales tax rebate.

Starting Aug 1st, 2019 the state will allow a tax rebate of up to $2500 on new EV sales. I'm guessing their first deliveries on/after August 1st all have to be re-done since the tax rebate isn't systemic in their purchasing system.

Oh well, I guess waiting a few extra days to save a couple grand is worth it...

I ordered a white SR+ with black interior and aero wheels on July 26th. I called in to make sure I did everything correctly and they said it could take 4-6 weeks since white is now the most popular colour. Will be taking delivery in Oakville, Ont.

I'm in exactly the same boat. Ineligible to get a VIN until after August for tax credit reasons and the Tesla rep mentioned that they'd need until around August 5th to sort out the paper work. I go on vacation for a week on August 6th so I'm planning on taking delivery when I get back.

Hmmm... I already have a VIN, but I’m not submitting final payment or taking delivery or anything until after August 1st. My car was already transported from Portland to Seattle... I wonder if I screwed myself by asking to be matched with a car already....

I think you should be fine as long as you take delivery after a couple days into August. Just make sure you see the tax credit reflected in the final paperwork you sign when taking delivery.

good luck, please document everything.

I was told the same.

Hi, new around here. Ordered sr+ white/black on 25th and received vin on 30th

I agree, just make sure it's reflected on your paperwork. In my case due to a trade in my sales tax was like $2k, so minus $2500 I expect sales tax to be 0. Unfortunately it doesn't come off some of the fees that get lumped into the same line like RTA tax and Registration/Title fees. Still, paying NO sales tax on a $40k car is a sweet deal.

Good to see deliveries continue to be scheduled into the middle of the second quarter. Tesla seems to have had some success unwinding the quarterly waves of the past.

Nice, there should be 2 of them. One for me, one for you but I had to give mine up as I don't have all the documents ready. So in case yours has issues, take the one that was for me. ;-)
