I think you're right.  the waitlist ending 9/24 is probably referring to the fact that you can apply normally now.  Good call, now im much more motivated to find a solid EV deal, maybe even an FCV deal for 5k rebate.

Like anything worth doing, you'll have to work with willing dealers and such and put in the legwork.  My last EV was a chevy spark EV, a stopgap between my first EV and the model 3.  my monthly payment net of rebates/credits was $66.67/mo. for a 36/12k lease term, absolutely zero down. This...

Those funds are probably earmarked for the low income applicants and FCV applicants. recently, this has happened almost every year.  Funds run out, waitlist begins, funds are replenished, waitlist applicants are made whole, applications are opened up again.  Granted there are WAY more EV buyers...

The funny thing is when we bought our house in CVE, one of the disclosures was a proposal to relocate the bus yard and move marine way road to intersect with the I-5N on/offramp.  That would fix half of the issue, but I've yet to see any updates on that project. And that sign rerouting people to...

Nice, first resale in CVE Martin?  Curious to see how this one goes. As for location, this has been one of the most obvious perks of living in CVE.  It's so easy to get to anywhere in Irvine in a relatively short time.  My only concerns now are how ridiculously backed up Marine Way (one lane...

USCTrojanCPA also represented me when we bought our home.  Can't recommend him enough, very straightforward, no bs.

It's not shortsighted at all.  It's a tool that Tesla uses to boost sales like they did recently.  In addition, there are WAY more J1772 chargers than Tesla's Supercharger/Destination charger network.  Just in Irvine alone, I can count over a hundred J1772 charging locations, but zero...

I've always felt CV felt a little cramped (but better than woodbury density).  Have you considered Cypress Village East (CVE)?  Obviously not a great choice for kids, but it feels so much less crowded here than in CV.  Tristania has some new homes leftover. Also a big plus for us picking CVE...

I've read up on the forums about all the issues, mainly the parking brake issue.  I've been lucky so far with no issues, but we barely drive.  Time will tell how long it will last.  Worst case scenario if problems keep occurring, I'll just sell/trade the van as I'm way above water due to the...

I've got both a Long Range RWD model 3 and Pacifica Hybrid currently.  They both serve different purposes, but are excellent at what they are built for. I've also leased a 1st gen Nissan Leaf and Chevy Spark EV in the past.  Both were great to use around town solo driving but that's about it...

Wow, that is a gorgeous home.  Love how the center courtyard flows into the backyard, on nearly 10k sq ft! 

Agreed, great update IHS3000.  Woodbury Town Center is getting out of control during peak times (and don't even get me started with all the crap drivers), and the lack of retail near GP is making it worse.  I wish they would develop more retail too on the southwest corner of Sand Canyon and...

autotempest.com (aggregates listings from all of the major auto search sites) leasehackr.com (amazing lease deals to be had if you are brand-flexible) swapalease (i've found amazing lease takeover deals if that's your thing, used it extensively to look for an M3/M4 but never found the spec I wanted)

Same decision tree here as well.  Final communities were Legado and Trellis, and we with Trellis due to location, low MR, and future rental demand (due to close proximity to fwys, GP, and Base Camp)

I used to live at the Centerpointe apartments right across the new Marriott hotel.  Loved it there, and we got such a great introductory rental rate (first tenants).  They typically push some sort of promo even if they don't advertise it (low security deposit, free application fees x2, etc.) We...

Just realized I didn't include the issues I've had so far.  I was one of the unlucky handful that got a slightly darker pearl white rear bumper, that had to be repainted (still looks off, but it's acceptable).  The body shop Tesla contracted it out to also did a crap job of blending with the...

Can we please bring this thread back on topic?  This is after all a Tech sub-forum on the model 3.  I can provide some insight to anyone curious about the model 3.  I've had mine for about 4 months now.  I also just test drove the Performance Model 3 this past weekend at the Costa Mesa Sales...

Yup, they connected Technology earlier this year.  it's the fastest way to get there if you live east of the 5 on sand canyon.

You have no idea how badly I want this to happen.  Having to go from the Great Park via Ridge Valley to Marine Way to Sand Canyon to Laguna Canyon to Technology is really annoying, especially when you can SEE Ridge valley on the way there. 

I can add some feedback regarding homes sold by Cal Pac. In general, homes are typically subcontracted out to the same homebuilders regardless of the company actually selling the homes.  Where I would distinguish between them is the service they provide during the build and post-close (e.g...
