    TSLA "Almost a Mass Psychosis" -- Lutz

    It’s funny that Lutz is wrong on a topic he should know something about, the future of electric cars and their market share, but he is right about TSLA share prices having no basis in reality.

    Valet gave my card key to another Tesla driver. It’s gone.

    Update: I removed the lost key from the list on the screen in my car as suggested. Thanks. I also bought a new key online. $25. Later I got an email from the restaurant saying that the valet found my key and they are Fed Exing it to me. Of course this is inconsistent with the story that the...

    Valet gave my card key to another Tesla driver. It’s gone.

    He was tracked down by the restaurant, is now 2 hours away, and says he “deactivated” the card. So, I have to spend the time to get a new one. ☹️

    I can't locate a very annoying rattle.

    My rattle turned out to be the open center console door. When I hear it, I close the door again and it stops

    Does dual motor make a big difference in terms of power, enjoyment, etc?

    Get the LR if you are a whimp, a pansy, and aren’t a car guy. There’s nothing wrong with that. Otherwise, go DM. Don’t get a P. It’s too fast. It has supercar speed, but it isn’t a supercar.

    Would you buy a "higher end" Model 3?

    Yes. I’d like it to be on par with an Audi. I got new suspension but I can’t redo the entire car and make it not tinny. I don’t want to pay for a Taycan. Tesla better do it fast to compete with all the great car companies’ upcoming e rides.

    Vendor Suma Blind Spot Side Mirrors

    My review: 1. I like the field of vision. 2. They made me nauseous, but that went away. 3. In the day, the view was blocked by a reflection on my 60% tinted windows from my white dash strip. I got the dash covered with a matte carbon fiber vinyl, which solved the problem. $150. 4. At...

    MPP Comfort Coilover reviews?

    The best thing for you is no springs. Have them replaced by 3” diameter solid steel rods. You will have no roll.

    MPP Comfort Coilover reviews?

    More roll than what? Not stock. More than with some aftermarket springs. Read carefully.

    Vendor Suma Blind Spot Side Mirrors

    Mine just came with no instructions at all, no paperwork at all. Weird. I did find a customer’s video that starts with “What up my boys?” Unprofessional in my view. Needs to improve.

    MPP Comfort Coilover reviews?

    Sorry, I have no input on that for you. I didn’t notice dipping and diving prior. However, since there is less side roll, I would guess there is less to and fro movement also, since it is governed by the same mechanism, no?

    Anyone found springs that maintain ride quality and reduce fender gaps?

    Better ride quality and DEFINITELY better handling.

    Final Decision: Is Going from AWD to P Worth $9,946-$12,946?

    Don’t get the P. It’s way too fast. You are not ready for it. You can’t handle it.

    Help Me Tesla Peers! Contemplating Trading/Selling 10 Day Old Model 3 AWD for Performance

    Don’t switch. The performance is too fast. The car can’t handle it well. It’s Ferrari fast, but it’s not a Ferrari. I never floor it anymore, now that the novelty has worn off. If you do get it, you have to spend another $3k on MPP coilovers.

    Basenor wind noise reduction kit makes a very positive difference

    I’ll bet the group that got positive results is more spiritual.

    Enough with the Games, already.

    Maybe the fart porters could port some customer service improvements instead. I would have loved to just get the features and services I bought. While failing to secure that, the farts pissed me off.

    MPP AWD/Performance Coilover Impression and Installation

    I am very happy with my new Comfort Coilovers from Mountain Pass Performance and KW. VERY happy. The car is definitely more comfortable and better handling than stock. They were installed yesterday at West End Alignment in Gardena, CA, which I also highly recommend. Chris is fanatical...

    Tinting front windshield: 50% or 70%?

    Good analysis and advice, for Vancouver. In So. Cal., my 80% is a godsend, and I can’t detect any loss of visibility, never have. I am not denying the physics, just giving my faulty human perception.

    Aftermarket Wheels on Model 3

    I love these SSR Reiner Type 6 Super Concave, but not even the manufacturer knows if they would fit with performance brakes. Does anyone have them on a M3P with the big brakes? Google Image Result for http://www.ssr-wheels.com/images/type6/titansilver_lrg.jpg

    MPP Comfort Coilover reviews?

    I corresponded with Jessie at MPP and I am sticking with comforts. He said he and the others at MPP use comforts on their daily drivers and love them.

    MPP Comfort Coilover reviews?

    Thanks for the honest and informative review. Bottom line is that the MPP comforts make it “acceptable” but not an “Audi-level ride”. I was hoping for an Audi-level ride, but it sounds like at least the suspension won’t bug me all the time anymore.

    What’s the one thing you like the least about your Model 3?

    The lack of rear vision is the biggest problem that I can’t fix. I can’t get used to it. The seats need bigger bolsters, at least in the Performance. It leans too much and is jittery at speed. I am getting new suspension.

    Anyone have White Interior with tint?

    I am happy with it. I just wanted to cut the glare and the heat, and not have my vision impaired at night. I never think about it.

    MPP Comfort Coilover reviews?

    We were discussing whether MPP would pay for the labor cost of fixing the squeak, at your installation shop. I haven’t seen MPP address that. All I have seen is that they are supplying the parts to fix it.

    MPP Comfort Coilover reviews?

    The only practical approach is to encourage MPP here and elsewhere, publicly, to do the right thing, and let everyone know what happens.

    MPP Comfort Coilover reviews?

    Oops! Not a good sign for your gf. Products liability law does not apply to this situation. I have been a products liability lawyer for 40 years. It would be a warranty case, express and implied, against MPP only. But don’t freak her out.

    MPP should pay any labor costs to retrofit their creaking coilovers.

    Trust broken - Tesla doesn't honor what it says

    Elon is Tesla. He made an impromptu offer of $5k for my free supercharging. Tesla could have withdrawn the offer before my acceptance, but didn’t. I accepted the offer, and the deal was made. Tesla had to pay. This is not opinion. Whether Tesla should have withdrawn the offer a.s.a.p. is a...

    New owner - noticing excessive body roll

    You are correct. The suspension is deficient, compared to something like the S5. It is floaty and jittery. It feels unsafe at speed. I also came from a S5. We are spoiled. I ordered new suspension, and am waiting for it. Coilovers.

    Trust broken - Tesla doesn't honor what it says

    I could never get the free supercharging I bought along with my car on a referral. It was all documented and confirmed but I never got it. Boy did I try. I ultimately got $5k for giving it up though. Go figure. Great car, horrible company.

    I have no idea whether my suspension will come in a week, a month, or a year. Mountain Pass Performance did not respond to my email. Does anyone have any information? I ordered a month ago. Thanks. @MountainPass ?
