SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

[fsch]

We ordered a M3 SR+ on March 24th with an initial EDD in March (!) then in April, then it was delayed to something like June 1-30, then back to May 16-30, and currently it's June 9-21. Quite some shifts! But when we ordered, they told us it would take anywhere between 3 weeks and 3 months; looks like the latter.
Interestingly, according to Teslike Model 3 survey, no Canadians who ordered since March got their car yet. In the USA, people who ordered their M3 mid-April already got it.

Yeah cause I guess around april is when they decided to prioritize Fremont M3s to the US and switch to Chinese made models for Canada. The first ship with Chinese made teslas just arrived near Vancouver and is waiting to dock and unload. People who are in BC still have EDD of May 16th to 30th while anyone in Toronto or Quebec has an edd of June 6th to 20th. It seems like it would take them almost a month to get from Vancouver to Toronto lol

I think it's a fair choice. The MIC (Made In China) cars don't get more than 1/2 of the 7500$ possible tax return for 2023 after April 2023. While the Fremont cars get the full 7500 $.

It's just crazy to me that when they were coming from Fremont it'd take about 2 weeks for the car to get to Quebec and from BC it'd take a whole month ? Unless a second ship is coming at the end of May ?

BC to QC is travelling from West to East. Fremont to QC is going from South to North. The sun goes from East to West, so maybe BC is the oddity in all these. Next time China should ship the cars to Montreal, and follow the sun trajectory.

I doubt it’s coming in a second, anything extra in the current ship (model y rwd and model 3 LR) has already been added and is being sold as exiting inventory. So I called to ask about this and they said it’s coming in the same batch as mines.

China to Vancouver has the shortest sea travel distance so it only makes sense for them to bring it there

But if the car has been produced and has arrived in BC, then why haven't we been assigned a VIN yet ?

What is your current EDD?

Anyone with an EDD of June 6th-20th (Toronto and Quebec) and May 16th to 30th (BC) have their vehicles on the ship ready to be unloaded and VIN in the source code. Any other Edd is probably waiting for a different ship. I think the VIN would actually show up on the order page once the vehicle is on the way to the Tesla showroom or ready for delivery. Also only certain colors are arriving in the current batch, I don’t know what they are for the model 3 but for the Y they are red, black and white.

Current EDD is still June 11th-30th and we ordered on April 18th

Definitely ! I was only making a joke.

Same for me, hasn't been updated yet. No VIN in source code

Ordered April 15th in Montreal.
M3 White ext, black int.

I'm still hoping we'll actually get a VIN once the boat is docked/unloaded, unless somehow that boat is just full of Model Y.

Is this valid for M3 or just MY?

No model 3 as well, I had a rwd model 3 on order from March 24th with the same EDD, there are also Long range models on the ship

Then let's just hope that we all get answers in the coming days when they unload the ship...

How do you call them? When I call it's just an automated service and no matter what i press I can't get a human.

So I just call my local Tesla showroom but it’s probably the same for all. First press 1 for vehicles, then 2 for new car deliveries. There should be an automated message about registration info, just wait through it and eventually it will ask you to say what you need help with. Say “connect me to an agent” and it will first connect you to the specific showroom you called and if no one picks up it will transfer you to an agent somewhere else.

 

[AxelE97]

EDD just changed to June 21st-30th, I think i might just switch to a LR in stock that is arriving around June 11th

 

[Arthur L]

when did you order?

 

[StrykerFoxx]

Mine also just switched to June 21-30. I ordered Apr 1.

This is almost 3 months from ordering to delivery, what's taking so long?
