My thoughts exactlyI wonder why they haven't updated the order page from just "June". You would think it would say June-August at this point.

Do you know if this would work if I am just a driver on the policy and not the name insured? This would be my first car purchase.In CA you can use proof of insurance for your current vehicle, provided you have full coverage insurance currently and it doesnt expire soon (something like 60 days).
In CA your current insurance will cover you in the new car for a few days to give you time to add it to your policy. I dont know if there is a regulated amount of time, but you normally get somewhere between 5-10 days to add your new car to your policy.
Every new car I have bought out here in the past 20 years let me provide my current insurance card as proof of insurance, so you should just do that.
have you reached out to tesla about the vin not being accepted for tesla insurance?Do you know if this would work if I am just a driver on the policy and not the name insured? This would be my first car purchase.
I have, they just said wait another 24 hours over chat. Of course they aren't open on the weekends over the phone. Doubt there will be any movement during the weekend.have you reached out to tesla about the vin not being accepted for tesla insurance?
I’m hoping it means my July 12-August 23 EDD is overly conservative but probably just wishful thinking.My thoughts exactly
That's what I am hoping for, I really don't want to wait another 12 weeks!I’m hoping it means my July 12-August 23 EDD is overly conservative but probably just wishful thinking.
Sorry for all the typos! I am curious if the $800 Plaid pads were carbon fiber like the rotors explained their high cost. My thinking is that it's a pad that has more metal content that will bite better initially but may not hold up to true extended track use.Those pads were $800 when bought from the Track Pack part numbers with the last M3P. So, that's nice that they are preinstalled.
Congrats! I was able to chat with a Sales Advisor on the App and they were able to schedule the delivery date for me. I do not have insurance set up yet but I am getting that taken care before delivery.I got my VIN yesterday in the LA area as well. I'm unable to schedule delivery without Insurance first. Were you able to do so? I couldn't sign up for Tesla Insurance with the VIN provided and unable to do so with others like Progressive, AAA, Allstate, etc. None of them accept it as a valid VIN.
It's because the car isn't available for a demo drive yet. It's only available in person as a showroom model. They invited some limited number of prominent youtubers to drive it, so they're the only ones who have published any comprehensive reviews of the car so far because of that special access.
That sit-down interview was useless other than him exclaiming that it makes the BMW M3 useless.For me, it's Hagerty/Jason Cammisa's that i'm looking forward to the most, if/when he does one in addition to the podcast review he published already.

There wasn't a single interview by anyone who had ever taken a M3P anywhere near a track, or understood any intricacies of the performance whatsoever. Every single review was a waste of time. Top Gear (which is a joke anyway) had no less than 7 blatant errors. Tesla certainly jacked up who they gave cars to.The thing is, those reviews weren't comprehensive at all.
"For more braking performance, our track-ready brake pads now come standard on Model 3 Performance*, delivering more immediate deceleration and higher thermal limits and endurance." From: https://www.tesla.com/blog/introducing-new-model-3-performanceDaily driving with track pads is a real headache – they just don't cut it. When they're cold, they hardly stop at all, plus they're noisy and leave dust everywhere. I really hope they're not supposed to be actual track pads and maybe a different compound. Ended up yanking them off my e92 M3 and going for something more street-friendly.
I wouldn’t sweat it too much, regenerative braking takes care of quite a lot!Daily driving with track pads is a real headache – they just don't cut it.

No more parking brake sticking to the rotor?"For more braking performance, our track-ready brake pads now come standard on Model 3 Performance*, delivering more immediate deceleration and higher thermal limits and endurance." From: https://www.tesla.com/blog/introducing-new-model-3-performance
It is afterall, the performance addition. The brake fade was substantially less with the track pads. Yeah, a little more dust and noise, but I rarely use my brakes. It's a tough balance for sure.
lol how often are you using your brakes daily driving? I'd saying you're driving your car wrong if you're stepping on it often.Daily driving with track pads is a real headache – they just don't cut it.

I believe it still stuck if I went into a car wash and parked it for a few days.No more parking brake sticking to the rotor?
