It there a model/brand you recommend' and are you using Tesla touch up paint? I hear you on the white and it's a great color for the 3, but it looks kind of plain blah blah on the Y imo.

I got my first chip today. I knew it would happen and eventually more will come. The part that got me was how thin the paint is. The chip can barely be felt because the paint is so thin on the hood of my 2024 MYP. It's too small to try ad repair with touch up paint so I'll just leave it alone...

Congrats.

I figured that since they gave me an unexpected 10K credits for customer loyalty. Wasn't sure.

@mreynolds767 Before I bought my 2024 MYP in the March fire sale, I extensively test drove the M3LR, MYLR, and MYP. Two things stood out to me as the key differentiators. 1. Comfort: The M3 feels like you're sitting in a go-kart. The seating position is very low and at 6' I felt long commutes...

I used a friend's referral link to buy my new MYP. I immediately had the bonus points an extras like 3 months FSD, but he did not get anything, Its been roughly a month. Does anyone know how we can contact Tesla to report the issue?

Mercedes Benz EV have the highest depreciation value of all EV brands LOL Now I don't hate Mercedes, I've owned two over the years. I think they stop being Mercedes around 2010. This short read on Rolex imo applies to Mercedes also except Mercedes hasn't quite found its way home; they are still...

It's shocking how Elon has not just seemingly ignored Tesla and let the competition catch up and in some cases pass them. The only thing Elon has left in his pocket is FSD. At some point he will need to give it away free.. my guess is within the next 3 years. I don't see Tesla making any major...

Your math makes no sense. reducing the price by 10x and increasing the user base by 80% is lots of money. Additionally he can then make small annual price increases just like Netflix and Amazon Prime. Have only 20% of the user base at 10x the cost is still unrealized gains. You assume a person...

Thats cool. I only have an FSD option for $8K. No EAP available for me.

Elon is leaving millions of dollars on the table by not lowering the price to a level the 80% will buy into, like $19.99/month. I'd be interested in seeing the stats on how many Tesla owners have bought or are current subscribers to FSD versus total amount of Tesla owners.

LAW® 553 Retail Installment Sale Contract is widely used by financial institutions and nearly every franchise dealership. This contract covers vehicle sales and financing. The specific clause you mentioned is only asking you to confirm the dealer informed you whether the vehicle is new, used...

FSD is now selling for $8K, but it looks like a bad deal. Really, really, really bad deal LOL You can subscribe to FSD for $99/month, and it would take 8 years to reach $8000 total spend. Considering Tesla does not allow you to transfer FSD to a new vehicle except under limited promotions that...

The Macan 4 has a 0-60 mph rating of 4.9 seconds and top speed of 136 mph so the MYLR is the quicker and faster vehicle of the pair and at comes in at half the price before tax credits and other incentives. Porsche's production will likely be low the first year anyway so the Macan 4 will likely...

I got a Ultra Red MYP for 49,680 last month shortly after I made my post :D I'm glad I acted. Loving the MYP and very happy with the price I got it at.

No need to clay again and if you do a spray on every 3 months you won't need to do another base coat. Make sure not to apply excess product or it can have a negative effect called high spots. You only need one spray a panel and rinse with water to spread the chemical across the panel. Each spray...

I did a lot of research on high end ceramic coatings like Geyeon etc as well as hybrid spray ons. It is true a high-grade pure ceramic/graphene will be more durable and last for years versus months; however, they still require annual maintenance. Most pro shops will include that for 2 to 3 years...

This is my second Tesla. I shopped around and the competition did not sway me from the Y. I didn't see the Macan or Prologue in person, but I know Porsche is grossly overpriced right now, reminds me of Tesla in 2022, and Honda has already confirmed they are separating from GM so no thanks on...

You can bank dealers will be charging a premium for the Prologue and I'm sure Porsche Macan EV will also sell out. It will be interesting to see how Tesla fares in 3 to 4 years from now.. Honda, Porsche, Hyndai will all be in the game and not to mention the possible arrival of BYD on American...

I sprayed on TurtleWax Hybrid Ceramic. Will do the job for $30.

The Prologue will be eligible for the full $7500, it's a Honda stylized & tuned version of the Chevy Blazer EV. The Macan is not on the eligibility list. https://fueleconomy.gov/feg/tax2023.shtml

I think it largely depends on how well the Honda Prologue is received as well as the Macan EV. Albeit both will sell very well.

This is standard procedure, nothing to worry about. They will contact the shop and after the vendor replies they will contact you. Assuming the shop is unable to produce evidence you are at fault, this may include emails, texts, voicemails, and it's legal in your state your credit card will side...

True and as I said the price could rise but within a day or two Tesla will issue new incentives and increase the discounts. Inventory Y's are being sold at all-time lows since the last MSRP hike. If your willing to take Stealth Grey you can pickup a Y with 19s for $44,090.

In my opinion you will not see a price increase on inventory, maybe day 1, but it will drop again if it does go up. Elon knows the competition is heating up so he's waging a price war to flood the market with Teslas effectively hurting competition.

Congrats! The Ultra Red is simply stunning especially when it's hit with direct sunlight. Looks sexy and sporty at the same time. I got a glass fiber interior trim set to bring that sexy & sporty theme in the cabin. So far, I installed the center console and steering wheel pieces and wow. Going...

I would have done the charge back the moment the owner's son made that ridiculous comment to you. A few bubbles here and there is normal, but yours just shows they do not work in a suitable environment to deliver a quality tint application. At this point no matter what the owner tells you, how...

If my MYP didn't already have a spoiler I'd get something like this...

You should be able to buy a car from out of state, but it does look like GA makes it challenging. More likely Tesla doesn't want to get involved in that process. https://getjerry.com/car-loan/buying-a-car-in-georgia-from-out-of-state#how-to-buy-a-car-out-of-state-as-a-georgia-resident

It may vary from delivery center to delivery center, but at mine the staff was very accommodating about paying after I inspected the vehicle. They even assigned it a permanent tag and did the delivery prep no pressure. If there wasn't an issue it wouldn't be a Tesla right LOL There are two...

Congrats to everyone on their new Ys. I just took delivery of my Ultra Red MYP with black seats today and smiled all the way home :D

Thanks for your opinion. I also feel it's not worth it and decided if it does get chip so bad I feel the need to paint it, I'd color wrap it. I'll look into the amazon thing.

When I sold my M3P during the pandemic it was with the intention of buying a MYLR when prices returned to normal. Took longer than expected :( and then I waited to see what happened with Highland and I decided Juniper was not worth passing up the current deals. Saw a new Ultra Red MYP for 49,680...

@skewdrv did you get the 5K bonus supercharger miles?

Thanks. I guess you must be a current owner. I sold my M3P maybe thats why im not getting the offer :(

In my area there are Tesla stores I call showrooms (in the big malls) where you can test drive and purchase online, but they don't do deliveries. To recieve the Tesla we have to go to the store I call the hub where they prep and deliver the vehicles and store their in-inventory vehicles; the...

Where did you get this info from? I dont see it on the Tesla website even after I login.

Thanks for all the info. I went to main Tesla store in my area, where they send you to take delivery from the smaller stores. Test drove a MYP and a MYLY w/ 20's. Funny thing is the MYLR with 20's handles much better than the MYP. First the steering wheel in sport mode felt very heavy like a...

I thought about that also.. the MYP I test drove had 21's and the MYLR had 19's. I know that can make a big difference in traction, but i wonder how much of a difference if any in body roll.

Thanks for confirming. I like the stealth gray, but i think for my second Tesla I want a Ultra Red, just dont like they want 3K more for it.

I suspected that. it drove just as well as the Highland LR I test drove back to back. Thanks for confirming. At 44050 its very very tempting to buy MYLR, I still wan the MYP lower even though I recognized at 48090 it's the lowest I've seen to date in my area. I think 47 for grey or 48 for ultra...

Now that the MYP is down to 48090 & MLR 44050 I'm excited again. I like the stealth grey and want to pull the trigger on the MYLR only 1 at that price the rest are rougly +800+ same for the MYP. I'm thinking of holding out longer for the Honda Prologue to arrive in hopes Elon lowers the price...

So it seems Model Y is at its all time lowest price today in my area. MYLR for $44090.00 & MYP for $48420.00. I suspect the Juniper lite refresh seen in Shanghai is coming to USA. After test driving the Highland LR I don't believe the probable Juniper upgrades are worth potentially loosing the...

I assume Juniper will not be eligible for the EV tax credit especially if Trump wins. That said having test drove Highland LR and an MYP I felt the interior upgrades were negligible difference especially if I can get a MYP at 52K - 7500 this year.

Yes I think that was a large part of why it felt so much more comfortable than the Highland to me. The new 3 seating position is also very low.

Looks like Tesla indeed raised the price of Model Y LR & RWD this month as stated by Elon. At only 2K difference, the MYP is the better buy imo. I can wait a bit longer, I suspect the price will drop again in June.

Thanks for all the replies. I'm debating pulling the trigger on a 2024 MYP.. it's actually cheaper than the Highland LR with the EV credit.

I test drove both MYP and a Highland M3LR. The 2024 MYP w/ 21 inch wheels was surprisingly comfortable and the drive experience was far better than the 2023 MYLR I test drove last December. I could feel the vibrations from in perfection in the floors especially in the mall parking garage and...

The discount in my area is less than 4K (on Performance Y) and varies from vehicle to vehicle. I noticed a pattern over the last two months where black and gray have the highest discount (2000 to 3800) and other colors are usually on the lower end of the discount (1000 to 2500). I think this is...

Yes you can use the TS 18"s. The OEM 18"s do not have the clearance for the larger performance brakes equipped on most Ps. will-18-inch-wheels-fit-on-tesla-model-3-performance-yes
