    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    Yep something insane like 48% of the orders have been Stealth Grey. They are going to be EVERYWHERE in that color

    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    Yep I’m black/black. First black car for me in about a decade though.

    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    The car looks shockingly good in black. I normally don’t do black cars but immediately switched from ultra red to black upon seeing pictures.

    Would you trade in an original MY SR for a new MY?

    Appreciate all of the insight here. Trade in from Tesla came back at ~28k for the SR which currently has 15k miles. About in line with what I figured if not slightly higher. That said, may wait and see if Tesla cuts a bit deeper with these model Y discounts. Also tempting to just wait...

    Someone on Reddit with an OD of 5/19 just reported getting a VIN 😂😵‍💫

    44% of the orders so far are stealth gray? Holy smokes lol

    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    Managed to see an SG in person last night and while the car itself looks phenomenal, I was shocked at how muted the color was. Very disappointing and dull. Will my order get dinged if I swap to something else?

    Whoa… stunning in black

    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    I ordered 5/1 and I’d be shocked (yet pleasantly surprised) if I see the car before July.

    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    Currently have a black/black ordered (before the price hike, so it does qualify for the 7500). That said, if I swap to gray, will that reset anything? Just curious.

    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    Same build here and same general timeline

    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    I ordered on 5/1 and my EDD is late July - August. I’d be shocked if you get it before July at this rate.

    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    How was the black in person? Quickly becoming my favorite color for this car from the pics I’ve seen.

    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    I feel bad for the simps that are ordering the car today and (rightfully so) expecting to get it in June
  15. B

    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    So what kind of backlog will it take for Tesla to revise the “June ETA” on the order site? Lol
  16. B

    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    Less than zero chance either of those happen unfortunately

    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    Ordered April 30 and EDD just pushed back to August 21 - Sep 27. My EDD was May/June when I ordered lmao

    Tesla appears ready to launch Model Y Metallic Shadow wheels in North America

    Very interesting... have to assume these have the ambient lighting and other improvements that China received as well? We are about to pull the trigger on a Y to replace our 2022 , but would hate to miss out on these updates if they are imminent.
  19. B

    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    Yeah this is par for the course with the white interior. Had one on our Model Y and I'll never make that mistake again lol. It looks great when clean though.

    Pure copium. I get it though :)

    Yep my mistake. Just noticed that as well. Odd

    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    It may have already been discussed, but it looks like black is now $1500 instead of $1000.

    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    Borderline criminal. I ordered end of April and have a late July - August ETA now. Really duping people who are ordering now and thinking they’ll get their car in June lol
  24. B

    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    Seeing all these early orders getting pushed back to late July/August is not a good sign in terms of immediacy. Definitely going to be some huge delays. Just a matter of why

    .99% APR Financing Promotion (May 10 - May 31 2024)

    Currently have a 2021 SR Y and with the new interest rates/tax credit I can essentially trade it in as a wash for a brand new LR. Any reason not to do this at this point? Our SR has been flawless, but I'm sure there have been vast improvements since 2021.

    Tax credit 2024 [The tax credit discussion thread]

    Apologies for my ignorance on the subject, but any downside to taking the tax credit up front as opposed to claiming as a tax credit?
  27. B

    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    Ordered min on 5/2 and the EDD hasn't budged from "July". However, I see people that ordered last week are getting VINs. Some things never change :)

    Would you trade in an original MY SR for a new MY?

    So we were lucky enough to snatch one of the OG SRs (7 seater) back in 2021 when they were released for like a 6 week period. Car has been great these three years, zero complaints or issues, but we have been toying with the thought of trading it for a newer Y LR. That said, given the...

    Model 3 Highland Performance/Plaid Speculation [Car announced 04.23.2024]

    Could care less about the straight line stats... With all of the suspension tuning and refinements, this thing probably obliterates the previous M3P around the track.

    Dirty fabric/cloth sections on white seats

    Anyone that has white seats definitely has this issue, I just don't think they care, out of sight out of mind I guess. That said, definitely a problematic cost cutting move by Tesla. They easily could have thrown the vegan leather on those sections and this would not be a problem.

    Model Y Performance Track Mode has arrived as a Holiday Software Update: As seen on twitter!!!!!

    I'm sure it's just a mistake, but I found it interesting that the video claims that acceleration improved with track mode on.

    Model Y Performance - Track Mode

    LOL, times have changed my friend. I've had my X3M and MYP on the track dozens of times without issue.

    How far will current selling prices fall after Jan. 1 ?

    No, it has been classified as an SUV so it is well within the params.

    How far will current selling prices fall after Jan. 1 ?

    LOL, prices are only gonna go up after Jan 1 my friend. Zero chance they drop. Zero..

    Also can confirm from a friend that works for Tesla. They said by eoy at latest.

    Used Model Y prices starting to normalize - peak appears to have been July

    For the hell of it, I submitted my 2022 MYP with 800 miles on it to Carvana and Vroom and received offers of 53 and 51k respectively. About a 20-25k delta from when I bought the car back in June.

    The number of used Tesla 3/Y available is staggering

    One thing I think people are missing is that starting in 2023, the $4000 credit will be in play for used EVs. It would not shock me one bit if we see a huge surge in used demand once the calendar flips.

    Pitting / Scratches under Dual Motor Emblem

    So the attached is the space where the emblem used to be. If you zoom in you can see the fine white lines / specks that are the scratches.

    Pitting / Scratches under Dual Motor Emblem

    Hello - so I pulled off my stock dual motor badge the other day to swap it for a black badge and noticed that there were some fairly deep scratches/gouges underneath around the outline of some of the letters in the emblem. Does anyone know if this is normal? Freaking out that I may have done...

    The number of used Tesla 3/Y available is staggering

    My only rebuttal to this is that ICE cars still seem to be thriving. 5-10k over sticker is not at all uncommon.

    New "wraparound" dash door panels for the US Model Y's - retrofit to existing cars?

    Has anyone tried booking a service appointment for this? I asked through the chat a few weeks ago and they said that a mobile tech could do the swap (for a price of course).

    Model Y Performance vs. GV60...Drag!

    Well, Tesla kind of allowed the competition to catch up in a way. I mean truthfully, is the Model Y that you can by today that much better than the one you could have bought two years ago? Not really. And here we were promised track mode, magical OTA updates that would unlock new features...

    Model Y Performance vs. GV60...Drag!

    It was extremely quiet, almost no road noise at all, pretty incredible in that aspect. Suspension to me was way too floaty for a "performance" vehicle. It was definitely tuned for comfort over sport. I imagine that these won't be doing very well on the track or skidpad.

    Model Y Performance vs. GV60...Drag!

    I test drove the top trim of the GV60 yesterday. Fit and finish is excellent. Really a well packaged car. HOWEVER.... it was nowhere near as fast as my MYP (and if you know me, I'm no Tesla fanboy). Even with the boost button, it was still noticeably slower (but not slow by any means)...

    Model Y Performance vs. GV60...Drag!

    Yeah that part of it was planned I'm sure. The video is a glorified Genesis commercial.
  47. B

    Model Y Performance vs. GV60...Drag!

    Watch the start of the race closely, the Genesis gets a fairly significant head start.

    Bottom dropping out of used market?

    Some people also simply want the fastest, best performing model. The rest can have the SR/LR :)

    Bottom dropping out of used market?

    That's an insane offer, take it right now.... More than they offered me for my brand new MYP, lol.
  50. B

    Bottom dropping out of used market?

    Carmax just offered me 55k for my MYP with 900 miles on it that I bought back in June. That's literally a 20k drop in value in the last 30-60 days (and I'm not trying to flip at all). I get the ebbs and flows of the market, but this seems pretty extreme. I can't fathom people paying the...
