    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    Yeah I haven't received a response. Understaffed I guess. Elon, hire me to respond to messages. Just don't censor what I say.

    Naw, go ahead and pull up to the delivery with a clipboard and these bad boys.

    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    Unconfirmed sources say they’re using your car for demo. The seat bolsters are gonna be all loosey goosey by the time you sit in it. It'll be ok just don't sniff the seat before you wipe it down with an apc. Those are 15 hard miles on the odometer. 😀 My car is also sitting somewhere for a few...

    If you leave dead bugs/poop on any surface (paint, wax, ceramic coating, ppf), the acidic substances can eventually cause some etching. Ouch that's NY pricing

    Congrats! I know someone will be showing up for delivery with a dragy in hand.

    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    There’s some frustration now but I’d rather see new cars delivered here in the states than have new models be released overseas and unavailable here. People near Fremont are getting cars sooner? Good for them! Don’t hate, congratulate. ….unless they switched from an SR/LR order lmao they’re...

    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    Most people do not care enough to pay for ppf, and will be fine with touch up paint. Ceramic coatings do not belong in the same convo and it’s better to think of them as semi-permanent wax. Reasons to get ppf: Change up the look. Besides stealth/satin, there are also color infused ppf...

    2024 Model 3 Performance Announced - Discussion thread post announcement

    Lol I’m no expert. Just seems like new shocks, springs, knuckle arm, etc add up to more than 5%. In any case, it appears the end result is 100% better. Looking forward to how the aftermarket will dial it in further.

    This is helpful and overkill at the same time. I can't tell if I’m turned on or turned off. He suggests using your finger to measure panel gaps, but it would be so much more entertaining to see someone pull out a protractor. The list of things to bring is the most helpful part.

    Vendor Taking Delivery of TWO Model 3 Performances - Day 1 Review and Teardown

    Can you guys also measure the tire contact patch? Since they can vary widely when customized for the manufacturer. I’m mainly curious how the stock pirellis compare to Tesla spec ps4s.

    Vendor Taking Delivery of TWO Model 3 Performances - Day 1 Review and Teardown

    Thanks for the research and kudos to Tesla on the forged wheels. Hopefully this will push companies to make even more competitive wheels. I volunteer as tribute for suspension testing. My qualifications…just trust me bro.

    This is how things look when I just wake up and have eye boogers. Is this a dream or reality. You could see if the vin on the windshield matches..

    And word on the street is he runs ultramarathons. You still number one in my heart though.

    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    No, bad boy! Go sit in timeout. If you’re leasing, ppf is absolutely not worth it. That’s like putting a ring on a girl you know will be with someone else in 2 years. Hm maybe not the best analogy but you know what I mean. Ceramic coatings are easy to apply yourself.

    Are you the one and only P-Lo? Wrapping is a must then. Maybe in gold chrome to match your grill.

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

    If the product is great, I want to know why and it would be strange for the guy not to be excited and come across as a sourpuss. If the hype is deserved, the m3p will be the benchmark for cars in this class. I haven’t watched a lot of his stuff but he is much more knowledgeable than most...

    If you or a loved one have experienced symptoms of estimated delivery date disease and/or VAD, you may be eligible for compensation. Common symptoms include compulsive app refreshing and an abnormal fixation on 1/4 mile times. Hm could this explain the butt rash I’ve developed? Maybe it’s the...

    Pro tip, you can swipe down on the car in the app and it will refresh. Not that you should keep doing it haha.

    Were you wearing a tracksuit? Did you lube your entire body with vaseline? Proving the mod's point about how subjective things are. I wonder if they got that dLo guy. You mean to say police aren't buying that people are teleporting to Mexico for 1/4 mile runs? This comment cancels out the...

    Yeah as a hobbyist detailer I can tell you many cases of orange peel would require wet sanding. Removing a good layer of your clear coat is not something you want to do unless it really bothers you.

    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    Hey we don't see color here. 😄 I do wish they wouldn't be so fickle with their pricing from one day to the next. There have only been a handful of deliveries and already 3 different price points. Oh you bought a plaid? bam half price now lol..

    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    Salvaged 2014 Altima...if anything they should charge you a disposal fee. 😄 I say just keep it or sell it yourself. And don't park near me. We have nothing better to do right now. Don't deprive us. You're running marathons to improve the 1/4 mile? Respect. Looking forward to the sub 11...

    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    I've had teslas with both options and imho white just makes the interior more pleasant and less gloomy. No one needs to justify their choice though. Maybe you're right and each time I open the doors I'll be like omg look at these giant white door inlays lol.

    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    It's good. Do it for science. Time to bring the bass back. Line skipppaaa. Lol kidding obviously. If only chevy would collab with Tesla then I can switch the corvette reservation I made on a whim a few years ago and skip ahead of everyone. I was going to poke fun at this but they've...

    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    Seems to be a bit of FUD now. Everything will be fine. Any updates needed will get done and cars will roll out. Or I guess you could order a Hyundai like that one guy lol.

    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    Reminder, a vin doesn’t mean it’s time to schedule delivery. Plus only one person has their car and it’s by accident. Same day ftw. I’ve reached peak laziness and order things like toilet paper online. If I had to wait 3 days I’d resort to scooting around on carpet or grass like a dog...

    reliability

    I mean it sounds like you need to slow down when you see cars and pedestrians. How did the car tell you you’re a lousy driver? Is there some hilarious negging feature I'm not aware of? Car: "Oh great, this guy again.." 😄 Zero money spent is impressive. It's probably time to inspect your tires...

    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    Yep, that's it. I haven’t received a response to my last couple of inquiries so I assume they are busy. Probably because all of you are pestering them about questions they can’t answer. “Where’s my car? How come I don’t have a vin? What’s up with my eta? Can I have these options and still get...

    M3p Tires

    It really depends on how you drive. For the rears, I'd guess 15-20k. You'll be fine running summers year round...if you're a decent driver that is.

    I'm getting fifty shades of stealth grey from your word choice. Your review got my washer fluid going. Lol I should get off the internet for a bit 😀 Also my eta updated to 5/22-5/29. No further info.

    2024 Model 3 Performance Announced - Discussion thread post announcement

    Yep. Maybe part of this is because some people are cross shopping used MSLRs with the new M3P. But anyway, it’s gotta be faster than the plaid. It also needs to leave the garage at night while I’m asleep to participate in autonomous ridesharing to pay for itself. I also want the license plate...

    New one has to be better. Rewatch the Curmudgeon show and relax. 2.9 with a passenger remember :) And people are making it seem like the non-US car uses salvaged and rusty batteries scrounged up from a dumpsite. For the sake of parity, I hope any differences are minimal.

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

    Thanks for your impressions. When it’s convenient, can you lose about 40 lbs and go test drive again in dry conditions heheh. Wish I could test drive this thing and see how it takes corners.

    Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

    Their demand will be fine. Choosing from these mundane exterior colors isn’t exactly a high level of customization anyway. What’s widget punching? Are you referring to the assembly line? Is the w supposed to be an m? Even worse lol.

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

    Very nice. Aside from the numbers, if you’ve had seat time in a prior m3p, how does the acceleration and power compare? What are your overall impressions of the car?
