WTF - there are so many of us, why the HELL aren't these cars being produced?
I think they ran out of white paint and vegan leather.

Haha. Nope — 328! It was a fun theory though.Shot in the dark - Does your VIN contain 324XXX? Just wondering if it is the same one like you thought, lol.

What The Frunk, 10 of you? If you believe Seeking Alpha, it is because Tesla is on the verge of BANWUPTCY!WTF - there are so many of us, why the HELL aren't these cars being produced?
Yep, you are right (just ask my wife), I'm a moron and enjoying every minute driving my white on white 3MR.I mean, only a complete moron would order a white, non-performance car.....am I right?
Yea well, me and my moron buddies here hope to join you soon!Yep, you are right (just ask my wife), I'm a moron and enjoying every minute driving my white on white 3MR.
You missed his sarcasm man, he has w on w on order, lol.Yep, you are right (just ask my wife), I'm a moron and enjoying every minute driving my white on white 3MR.
I know you’re joking but there is more than 10. Look at the order tracking spreadsheet. Look at this 16 page thread - I’d argue this model and all white interiors have the longest wait right now.What The Frunk, 10 of you?

I placed my order for SR+ white/white 19" on 5/11; on 5/15 I changed it to LR RWD white/white 19" since it it now includes AP and only cost $6400 more. Went back/forth with multiple advisors and tesla center and finally got the pricing and loan settled. I received my MVPA this morning and Vin 336XXX assigned to me with delivery date of 5/22, but I could technically pick it up 5/18 if I'm able to get the loan done by tomorrow.
I'm shocked how fast it it took after reading about all the wait-times for the white/white on the forum.
Wish me luck nothing is wrong with the car so I wont have to turn it down.
From what I understand — when M3 orders hit their stride and they couldn't keep up with production, they abandoned the “build to order” model for a tried and true “build to inventory” model.
They just make a big batch of common configs without regard to custom orders — effectively making the white on white NON-performance model the “unicorn” it is today.
I mean, only a complete moron would order a white, non-performance car.....am I right?
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
You made the right call. At these price points, you should get what you want. Tesla doesn’t understand the customer satisfaction business yet.I planned on getting white on white performance one month ago based on the 2 week premise. I ordered April 3rd and still nothing from Tesla besides an offer day after my order for a white on white performance 2018 with a dent and 2000 miles ( I said no thanks even with a 5k discount)
I will continue to wait because everyone raves about the car. Hopefully soon
No it’s build to order, There is a build sheet hanging on each car.
Take a tour watch a line video, and see.
All different colors and configurations are coming down the line.
It’s all orchestrated and scheduled.
They line them up in the yard a mix of all colors and configurations.
Logistics are a black art and Tesla is a master.
But you are competing with:
1. Reservations, although most have been filled and
2. Regional Sales quotas per center.
400 cars NOT spoken for hit the inventory shelves this week alone.
As a customer with a custom order they Already have your money.
Now they are prowling for walk ins off the street.
The majority will get matched with in stock lot inventory.
If you can’t wait, The rest will have their arms twisted to take a different configuration..
Some are even begging for a demo or a car 1 Year out of date (2018)
All to save a few bucks up front.
Buy it, a day later total it, and get socked with 2 year worth of depreciation. Nice
Happened to me that’s how I know and gap insurance is your friend.
All Added together outside of those who reserved one at the model 3 announcement
The average wait time is still two weeks.
The lemmings (me/us) will patiently wait...and wait....and wait some more.
With Detroit that can also take a month or two for an order.
It’s a contractors answer: When will it be ready, two weeks......
No communication, because you’re not ready for the truth
No compensation because it’s a sellers market.
27 Performance models hit the lot inventory a week ago and the majority of those where white interiors.
Not harder to make
There are No shortages
There will be No explanations
You will get no Apologies
And when you get yours you will agree, it’s really a nice car.
Oh, I appreciated his sarcasm, you just missed my humorous repertoire retort (but he didn't).You missed his sarcasm man, he has w on w on order, lol.
I hear you, I waited 994 days for mine. It started driving me crazier during the wait. But now that I have it, I am sane again.I’d argue this model and all white interiors have the longest wait right now.
