    Model 3 Performance (Canada) Waiting Room

    Deliveries will be starting soon we hope. Wanted to start a Canadian thread for the 2024 Model 3 Performance. My EDD is sitting at Aug 14th - Sept 25th. Ordered a few days after it was announced. White exterior, black interior.

    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    I would imagine the logistics, locations, trims, and volumes would make managing a proper “next in line system” nearly impossible. They likely don’t even try initially.

    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    Man. How can they claim such a low time, when it’s that far off from possible.

    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    Why? Not questioning you. Just wondering why.

    Model 3 Highland (Canada) Waiting room

    Mine still shows Aug-Sept. it will likely change many times as the date approaches.

    Model 3 Highland (Canada) Waiting room

    Ouch. That’s into Q4. ! Well, the good news, is these dates really mean nothing. US orders have been flip flopping on dates constantly. I really feel our orders will be Q3 or earlier. When did you order it. ?

    Model 3 Highland (Canada) Waiting room

    Seeing more USA deliveries being pushed back to the date range we were given here in Canada. (July-Aug). I hope that doesn’t mean we will be pushed even further into Q4…

    Model 3 Highland (Canada) Waiting room

    I’m with you there. That’s a long wait, when you want the car now. :) I really hope the date range shortens, but if we go by past trends, North America traditionally gets their cars late in the quarter, as they fulfil Europe first. Logistics and variable have changed though, so who knows. We...

    It may handle better, because it’s built China. :)

    As long as your far superior, all is good. :)

    Model 3 Highland (Canada) Waiting room

    Those different designs are not performance cars. They’re LR, SR, etc.

    Model 3 Highland (Canada) Waiting room

    If yours still says July, you’re in good shape.
  13. M109Rider

    Model 3 Highland (Canada) Waiting room

    That sounds promising for sure. Now if Elon would only add Canada to the list of countries getting deliveries, that would be awesome. :) I can’t wait.

    Model 3 Highland (Canada) Waiting room

    Ya, those are large differences for sure. Awesome to see. I think it’s safe to say, the LG won’t fair as well. How close they are we will see. It would be pretty disappointing, if the new M3P (LG pack) has similar stats to the original M3….

    Model 3 Highland (Canada) Waiting room

    Gorgeous car. I have the boost also, and love it. Just in the waiting game now. :)

    Model 3 Highland (Canada) Waiting room

    I do have a M3P on order. The estimated delivery date was July. About a week ago, it moved to August 14th to September 5th. :( Basically end of Q3 I suspect. My 2018 dual motor still runs flawlessly. I almost feel guilty for giving it up. 245,000km’s on it now. But I really want the...

    Model 3 Highland (Canada) Waiting room

    That sucks. Should be easy for a dent guy to fix easily and quickly. I get why the service centre is gun shy on the reporting. For every valid claim like yours, they get 10 where people damaged their car and try to get it fixed for free. I get their side of it. Hope it goes well. Either...

    Model 3 Highland (Canada) Waiting room

    I agree it’s not much, but that was kind of why I’m a little sideways. Would have been easy to bump up by adding even a few kw/h’s. Overall, my order is placed, and unless things get uglier, I’ll be happy I’m sure. I have a feeling we are looking at end of Q3 at best right now. The Tesla...

    Model 3 Highland (Canada) Waiting room

    It’s pretty officially listed on their site now. I’d say it means something, and is very relevant. LG batteries already have less energy density. Couple that with a smaller battery, and you have a relevant and real hit to the fun and disappointment factor. :) If anything, the LG should have...

    Model 3 Highland (Canada) Waiting room

    US M3P just increased the range gap with the recent increase to 303 miles for US cars. .. Would it have killed Elon to add 3 more kw/h’s to the national M3P Cars. ? Huge Tesla fan, but this really doesn’t feel good.

    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    I’ll trade you my ETA for your east coast eta. Canadian eta’s are August -September…. With a smaller battery, and less power. I hear all the complaints, but I guess it’s all a matter of perspective. :)
  22. M109Rider

    Model 3 Highland (Canada) Waiting room

    My delivery date changed today from “July” to “August 14th - September 25th.” Sigh.
  23. M109Rider

    Model 3 Highland (Canada) Waiting room

    Ya, I was initially a little upset at the LG - Panasonic difference, but not now. I’m just patiently waiting now. :) Your order date show July ?

    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    I’m in there. So there is at least one. I thought I saw some other place holders for Canada as well.

    Politics - Quarantine Thread

    I hope the tariffs President Biden put on Chinese batteries doesn’t impact deliveries outside the US. Could even affect US deliveries, if Elon shifts all production for everyone to the US as a result. That would stall all deliveries.

    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    Hmm wonder what that update is. I wouldn’t imagine it’s just software, because they don’t need to hold back cars for that kind of an update. Or maybe they just said that, because they were running behind.

    High pitched noise from drive unit

    Hmm. That doesn’t sound like wind noise. But it also sounds different than the ground strap whine I know of. Not sure what that would be.

    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    I’m in Ontario Canada. I’ll likely burn through the summers, then get a second set of rims. One for winter tires, and one set for all seasons. That’s my current set up.

    Model 3 Highland (Canada) Waiting room

    Hopefully we will have a better sense of delivery timelines of new M3P cars in the next 4-6 weeks. US deliveries should be happening any day now. Can’t wait to see more videos of its performance. Would be nice to see a head to head of the LG and Panasonic models as well.

    Model 3 Highland (Canada) Waiting room

    Not sure about the reflectors. I would imagine they’re the same. The matrix/adaptive headlights are in all new teslas.

    Tighten your lug nuts

    This is a lug nut cover problem. Not a lug nut problem. He describes pushing the nut in. Can’t do that with a nut. They turn. :)
  32. M109Rider

    Tighten your lug nuts

    Sounds like you’re describing the plastic lug nut covers. Just push it in. Those pose no risk. Other than losing one if it falls off. They rarely fall off once pushed in.

    Not that I’m aware of. I’m hoping to see someone to get a VIN soon.

    Model 3 Performance (Highland) - Now available in Canada

    Anyone from Canada receive a VIN for the new performance model 3 ?

    We may get the Shanghai cars first, but I’ll swap you my Shanghai built with LG batteries for your Panasonic version from Fremont. :)

    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    Awesome to see some delivery dates are being met. That’s a great sign. Also, Canadians are getting Chinese made Teslas just like Europeans. So I’m hoping that means Canadians will see deliveries soon also !!

    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    Canadian orders are showing July. However today the service advisor told me they are expected in December. (In Canada) I’m hoping he’s misinformed, or guessing. …

    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    I wonder if the new 2024 model 3 performance has been built with a wiring harness installed for a future front camera. I have a feeling all Teslas will eventually get a front camera. It would be nice to know if it can just be installed when they come out.

    What battery cells are in the 2023 M3 LR?

    Thanks. ⬆️ Wondering if 18” wheels can be made to fit on the new model 3 performance. I love the rims that come with it, just curious.

    What battery cells are in the 2023 M3 LR?

    So it seems the LG battery in the 2024 model 3 performance is slower to charge, dishes out less power, and has a smaller battery pack. (79kwh vs 82kwh. ) Do we know if the LG battery has less longevity, or degrades quicker. ? I was thinking of buying one here in Canada, but honestly, the less...

    Does acceleration boost affect range?

    I grabbed the boost for my 2018 model 3. Lots of fun. Definitely feel the difference, and I really haven’t felt any range difference from pre-boost. There are so many variables that affect range, that I’m not sure I would notice anyway. Go for it.

    Strange Behavior only after charging

    I have had that happen to me a few times now. I’m not certain it happens only after a charge, but I suspect that’s the case. Must be a new software bug, because it’s new for me also.

    Defective upholstery in Tesla Y

    Million cars sold, and it seems a tiny amount have any problems. So I would say the average user has no problem. Despite your belief that your personal care products should NOT affect the seats, they clearly do, and maybe they’re just too strong. Nothing is impervious to certain chemicals. I...

    New SC rates in Ontario

    I don’t supercharge a lot. I charge mostly at home, but I don’t recall ever seeing (even recently) a $25-$30 fee. Are you comparing a $6-$7 fee at 5 year old pricing, starting at 50% charge to 80% charge; to prices today from 5% to 100% charge?

    Canadian Insurance and Tracking app with Teslas

    I agree there are loads of bad drivers. But insurance for those drivers go up on their own. Opting into this is short term gain for some demographics. But that will be short lived also, once they get more adopters. Your rates will go up. They are banking on this long term strategy. :)

    Canadian Insurance and Tracking app with Teslas

    Short term benefits for some, for sure. You will eventually pay for not caring about the long term, or others, when they change the parameters of how they “feel you need to drive” to continue to get those same discounts. It WILL happen. :)

    Canadian Insurance and Tracking app with Teslas

    This isn’t about the country, or privacy. This is about corporate profits. All countries have that. Isn’t it easier, to not opt in to something we know they will hold over us later.

    Canadian Insurance and Tracking app with Teslas

    That will work at the moment. Until they have enough folks buying into it, and helping them build this out. They will then make it legislation. Then you can’t say no. …

    Canadian Insurance and Tracking app with Teslas

    lol. They want you and everyone else to feel you’re in control, or getting a better deal right now. This is early, they have an end game in mind. Do you honestly and truly believe, insurance companies want these apps to save you money long term, and make insurance more affordable with this...
