So did u have to withdraw ur down payment or how does that reservation process work ? Anybody still waiting or have any idea when ppl who decide to put in their reservation now might get their 3?

still waiting to see the process, because my gf still wants one if it comes within a reasonable time. Starting to read a lot of rumblings about it taking longer because of possible cobalt and lithium supply issues.

Yeah it's right on their website. If you want a new lease on the build it page it has the lease numbers on the right hand side or you can get an inventory aka used one also. Even while you're building a new one they'll give you suggestions on used teslas similar to the one you are building.

The suggested inventory cars in the design studio aren't used inventory though. Those are pre-configured cars they already built, basically the same as picking a car off the lot instead of ordering. They have a separate used inventory section on the site:

Im confused what's the point? You can build a car for lease or get the inventory cars which I mentioned anyway.

You haven't saw the pics online yet? Glad you mentioned this though cause I forgot even though it probably looks like the pics I saw online but still will watch tonight
I've seen pics but I'm hoping most info will be released. Configs and clear in depth pics of the steering wheel and center console.

What we do know, thanks first to a leaked internal company document but which has since been confirmed by the company, is that the Model 3 will offer a 5.6 second 0-60 time, 130MPH tops speed, 220 mile range, space for 5 adults, and 15 cubic feet of cargo storage. It will offer supercharging capability, which notches 130 miles of range per 30 minutes of charge time. If you juice it back up through your home's 240V power system as well, though, that rate drops to 30 miles of range per hour. Other amenities include WiFi and LTE connectivity, voice activated controls, and Bluetooth.

As for options, you can score an extra-range battery which boosts the vehicle's range to 310 miles, ups the top speed to 140 MPH and drops a half second off the the 0-60 time to 5.1 seconds. You can also pick one of five special color options for $1,000 a pop or add 19-inch sport wheels for another $1,500. The Premium Upgrades Package retails for an extra $5,000 but gives you premium, powered, heated seats, fog lamps, heated sideview mirrors and a dual smartphone dock in the center console.

And of course this thing is autopilot-enabled. You'll just need to plunk down $5,000 for the Model 3 to get it to "match speed to traffic conditions, keep within a lane, automatically change lanes, transition from one freeway to another, exit the freeway and self-park at your destination," according to the company. The Model 3 can even offer "Full Self-Driving Capability" at some point "in the future" but it'll set you back $3,000 in addition to the five grand you dropped on the Enhanced Autopilot package.

The Model 3 will only sport a single 15-inch display screen (rather than the S's dual digital displays) and offer a far more streamlined customization process with fewer than 100 options for customers to choose from. The Model S, for comparison, boasts more than 1,500 customization schemes.

Tesla just delivered the first round of Model 3s

:ehh:

Unless Tesla cuts the prices of their options for the model 3 I don't see them selling as many reservations as they have now.

$1000 for a color besides black
$9000 for 90 extra mile range
$5000 full auto pilot (I'm not mad at this one)
$5000 sunroof, power mirrors and seats, etc.

A base $35k model 3 will have manually moving seats, no covered center console, no power mirrors, etc

I sure hope for their sake they at least do away with that colorr change price smh.

Granted, price per mile the long range model 3 is the best electric vehicle out there but damn!
