I just want options. For example, even my prehistoric 4Runner has over 8 options for drive wheels / traction control / ABS / stability that I can pick which one works best to my driving style given the conditions. It has 2WD, 4WD, 4 modes of multi-terrain select that changes throttle TC and...

Agree 100%. I have owned many vehicles in the Colorado mountains from FWD, AWD, 4WD part time, 4WD full time, and RWD and the Model 3 is the least desirable of any of them. Yes, we have snow tires. Yes, I know how to deal with oversteer - I do multiple track events and autocross events yearly...

I figured there are multiple people looking for a spare set! The wheels are $200/each, TPMS ~$70/each. I did not get an extra set of aero covers because I will share them with the "summer" set. I think they were <$100/each. Overall, wheels and TPMS + X-ice tires is about equivalent to the Tesla...

I placed an order on 10/24 for 5 aero wheels + TPMS for a winter set (+1 to replace a curbed wheel). I did not want the Tesla winter bundle because I want to use different winter tires and the price is nearly identical to by the wheels/tires separately. Order was placed with my service center...

We picked up our dual motor non-P yesterday. Overall very satisfied, but there are issues with the paint in places just like many people have been reporting. The most noticeable is the front bumper that clearly was dirty before painting. Also a few bubbles in the lower edge of the door. It has a...

I am now confirmed for 8/27. If something odd happens and causes a day delay I will be out of their 7 day window so it might get interesting. VIN is 64XXX.

I got the call today. Car will be here next week, but I am on vacation so I am delaying it until 8/27. They said it's the last day of their 7 day window and won't be confirmed until we finalize all details. I really hope I don't have to give this one up and wait in limbo because they won't hold...

Probably not, just sharing my experience. CO detail will do all the custom work you want such as chrome delete, interior wraps, wheel powder coating, emblem coloring, etc. They are very familiar with Teslas so that might be worth something to some people. I enjoyed my experience with Colorado...

Hi all Line waiter / non-owner Ordered 6/26 Blue / AWD (non P) / EAP / Aeros Sept - Nov estimate. No contact yet. On the detailing discussion. I used both CO detail and Colorado Clear Bra for various cars. Both are very professional. However, if you want a one stop shop for tint, clear bra...

Definitely go to Colorado detail. They do tons of Tesla's and are very detailed oriented. Excellent work and friendly people. I have been lots of places with various cars and I have finally found a shop I trust.

Same here! Mar-May, non-owner, Colorado line-stander. My wife was in line and reserved around 12:30. Probably will wait for AWD.

I was planning on giving it a shot just for fun, but without buying new tires there is no hope at being competitive. I am also skeptical about the braking performance. Overall, it's still a fairly large car and is heavy. The instant torque will make it fun though.

Same here. Chrome, Safari, Xbox...all show a black box and is asking me to reserve again. No countdown

I would like to wait for dual motors, but it all depends on the expected delivery vs. tax credits. I might just end up going with whatever is available at the time but I think being a non owner in CO (line stander) that AWD likely won't delay my order much, if at all. Ideally I am waiting for...

Cloth seats would be the best surprise for me. I fully expect synthetic leather standard and maybe an option for real leather, but would love cloth. I can't stand leather or synthetic leather. I would gladly pay more for cloth.
