If you believed Musk, you knew that you'd be getting your car sometime in 2018 because of the 10,000 a week that he'd be building. In which case, there isn't really any need to be at the front of the line for one.
But if you knew that was BS and it would be a couple extra years (on top of the wait for the start of production) before you got your car ... why not just keep the cash yourself?

I think the problem is a lot of people wanted to be the first ones on the block with a Model 3, but they expected to pay $35k out the door and not a penny more. Summer of 2018 is coming up now and Model 3s are slowly tricking out onto the streets, but those $35k base models are still nowhere to be found and those people's deposits were probably burned by Tesla months ago.
