SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

[MikeC-63]

Anybody who ordered LFP have a later EDD? I ordered LFP config 8/28 (originally had NCA) and immediately got a vin and a estimated delivery date of 9/16-9/26. Seems so much later than everyone else who is getting them right away

Was the order in your local area aleady? Mine had to be shipped from Washington DC to MI so im looking at the 13th at this point im being told.

Has Tesla addressed fire risk with using pouch design similar to Chevy Bolt for these LFP battery packs?

 

[Mattmo]

why do i feel like @Mattmo had to do this?? and he just got his car yesterday maybe??

I was able to schedule my delivery 8 days in advanced and didn't hear anything after that. I called on Saturday morning just make sure i will still good to go and they said yes. Thankfully, I didn't have change pick up locations due to the storm. I was able to pick up in Princeton.

Ordered Jul 21 - been sitting at same EDD of Oct15-Nov04 for almost 3 weeks now. Rumour is white interior is in short supply, so that may be working against me for delivery date…

I have both NCA and LFP orders in my account still.

NCA EDD still sitting at 10/12-11/1 (order 7/18)
LFP EDD not showing up (order on 9/3)

it’s bad when i have dreams about this car every other night… all related to worst case scenarios happening

I.e. - one where my husband “surprises” me with a non refundable Leaf EV bc it took too long (i kicked him in my dream)

I’m sure there’s a “Leaf/Leaves him” joke in there somewhere

Alright! I am finally sitting down to post a quick take on my delivery experience.

As some may know I had an order for a NCA battery back in July, but ordered the LFP battery when they became available on 8/26. I instantly got a VIN and was able to schedule delivery the next day via a text link. I had delivery scheduled for Saturday 09/04 at 1pm at the Princeton, NJ location. I called the morning of just to make sure everything was all set for me to pick up the car and they said yes!

So I got there a little early and the Lady at the front desk was super kind and helpful! All I had to do is hand her my bank check since I was paying cash and my SA came over and asked me to sign a couple documents. Seconds later, the car was pulled out of the garage and I was told that it was just detailed. IT WAS SPARKELING! I did a quick once over for the exterior and checked out the interior before my SA started getting my phone key set up with me. Thankfully, my Wife was there with me to keep looking over the car while I was preoccupied. No issues with the car inside or out!

I've been driving it all weekend and couldn't be happier. A quick note though, The LFP battery does only have a range of 253 miles. I did not receive a window sticker or anything so I'm just basing this off of what the car says.

Thank you all for the mental stability checks over the past couple of months! I will be sticking around to keep in touch here with some new friends I've made. Especially my NJ peeps!

For those who just recently picked up your car, did you guys get the new headlights with the projectors or the standard ones with the scattered beam pattern?

Left is new, right is old

Mine look like the ones on the left

 

[RavaageFX]

So got my schedule delivery text yesterday and made my appointment for tomorrow which was the first available option. I know this is just me being super impatient, but do y’all think it worth me calling the DC at 10am to see if i can pick it up today? Lol

I was all set to pickup at one delivery center when they called and said oops its at another location 20 miles away. One long free Uber ride later the saga is finally over! This is the LFP, the old NCA order would have arrived about a week later. No issues and it's been a blast so far.View attachment 706177

Who authorized the Uber for you? Was it your SA or someone else?

Will do. I’m picking up from Buena Park by the way… white interior, everything else is standard

I have home delivery but we ordered the same day and around the same time. I feel like the white interior got us the later deliver my date.

I think mine was still in production so I’m assuming that’s why. When I ordered it said it was in the area but over the phone they made it seem like it was still in Fremont

 

[pjlecy]

My LFP car is on its way, my SA told me it's on route. Once it gets to Chicago I'll be able to pick a delivery date.
