made my dual motor M3 Reservation at noon, at the Tesla booth, got a call, 3 hours later, with delivery date for next Friday... 1 week! I'm also picking up in LA. Got White on White...

Um, wow. Sounds like Tesla has no sales backlog at all anymore (except for the short range version).

Did you look at the Rivian autos?

So what about the LA auto show?

Hmm we ordered Friday night online. In Torrance, they said the best option is delivery at home. Not sure when the cars will be ready for delivery.

They do, just not for AWD, those are plentiful and ready to go.

Tesla were showing a white p100d MS and red P3D with white interior. I did end up loving the white on both!

As a driver of 100,000 electric miles in my current vehicle, and having driven high HP RWD cars as my daily driver. AWD was a must for me, this much torque in a car requires it based on better regen braking which will help with more flexibility in one pedal driving (never needed a brake job in my current car) Waiting for AWD was part of the reason why I didn’t make a reservation much earlier. I would’ve taken MR dual motor, which isn’t out obvi, but federal tax credit was a priority to secure on Friday.

Your story sounds familiar. I went to Disneyland on Friday and ordered a white on white Model 3 while at the park. Saturday I went to the LA Auto Show.

Did you see the Audi E-tron GT? How did it look? I was disappointed it was only there on Friday. I also wanted to see the Byton SUV but couldn't find it anywhere.

I virtually got my P3D a few weeks back. It only took a week after I ordered.
