Ordered on March 22, the estimate was1-13 weeks at the beginning, then changed to 9-13 weeks since March 31, and then back to 1-13 weeks again today. I guess I need to be patient and get used to the frequent changes. Lol
It will go back and forth between dates range and weeks range. Get used to it. Lol

I would stop worrying until at least mid May. Then in May come back to this thread and keep seeing it people freak out (we all did) lol
 
Woke up yesterday to it saying estimated delivery April 17-May 13... then later that afternoon it changed to May 22-June 21. May 22-june 21 is 9-13 weeks from the time I ordered it (March 22). I am hoping it changes again, I was really liking that April 17 - May 13 time frame
 
I'm still trying to figure out how Tesla delivering their cars quarterly works. I ordered mine March 30th, and got a delivering date of June 5- June 24. Now does that means nobody before June gets any cars? Because two weeks ago the delivery time frame was 1-3 weeks. If I've placed an order then, probably I would get a car much sooner than June :(

Each quarter, M3's start with overseas car production first to account for transit time via ship, then production will start for left hand drive cars around the middle of the quarter, deliveries typically start on the east coast and work west across the country.

Did not know this, but it makes sense. This gives me a better understanding why I should expect May - June in Toronto.

I thought Shanghai gigafactory will be supplying 3 and Y to Europe and Australia? If that's the case, Fremont will be mostly for North America market?
 
Also, Elon mentioned about build quality being a little rushed during end of quarter push. If Tesla ships their vehicle regionally, does that mean the cars build for overseas are the best quality, and we live in the west coast will get the worst ones?
I don’t think so, i live in the Netherlands, look at how they delivered my sr+ from Fremont. I returned it and will have a call tomorrow how to solve this.
