After a few years of waiting Tesla gave me a call today. The car is ready to pickup in Costa Mesa on Sunday. Pls stay solvent untill my warranty is up 
Tesla Model 3
- Thread starter Maserson
- Start date
NEW -> Contingent Buyer Assistance Program
friend of mine picked up theirs 2 weeks ago. still in the shop today. make sure you do a thorough inspection and hope you have better luck!
Yeah it is 7500 until Dec 31. Afterwards, 3750 for two more quarters, then halves again for two more, then is gone.
Weird bunch of issues, I'll report back with my experience. My luck isn't great, my last new car, Subaru, blew up its engine after a few thousand miles.
What config did you order?
RWD are being delivered in 3-6 weeks. AWD haven't started delivery yet, somewhere between 2-3 months estimated for new orders. There is a pretty big queue of AWD orders still, but they've mostly worked through the queue of RWD LR orders in north america.
Performance orders also get priority, probably similar to RWD, maybe a little longer.
Standard range, supposedly 2019, probably depends how well the higher trim cars are selling. They probably will be 40k to start, assuming the required 'premium package' will be the last thing to go.
It actually happened while driving in a starbucks parking lot. Turned out a batch of pistons was machined out of spec from the factory, and it shredded one of my rod bearings.
Oh wow, I just got called to pick it up next Tuesday. Already on its way to the dealer. Took 1-2 days! Whole process so far was really fast and so smooth and easy.
Definitely better experience then driving to the dealer, haggling, filing paper work that takes at least half a day.
Well Irvine Company and every home builders in Irvine don't treat you as well for Overpaying big time. At least the tax payers are helping me off set some of the overpayment this time=)
A co-worker just received his Model 3 - $60K for a car with hubcaps. Crazy.

If you are a day 1, you'll probably get it really quickly.
