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

    I hear ya regarding go to jail speeds.... I don't know, the thing that has always made me shake my head (in a good way) with powerful cars is that they don't stop pulling - I much prefer that sensation. Your other point - sure a 60ft is important but we're talking very fast 60fts already...

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

    I always think its interesting that people forget the standard model s refresh traps 130mph (even though its only ~3.1 0-60) Am I the only one that would rather have a model 3 trapping 130+ vs insane 0-60? The pull after 60 is what makes fast cars feel really fast.

    lightweight wheels model 3 performance 0-60 testing

    This is a frustrating thread to read. The only person in this thread (@Sam1 ), who has spent the money and has significant real world experience in testing various setups, and showing no change in 0-60 times... is being trash talked. I don't get it? Can someone address why all of the top...

    Vendor Official Signature Wheel Gallery | Fitment Q&A Thread

    For a thread that is focused on these awesome signature wheels, with great fitment... why does no one mention the offset of their wheels in the specs when they post? Past 4 pages have people talking about their sv104 in 19x8.5 but no one mentions the offset. What is the offset? Jamie - can...

    2021 EV Tax Credit

    Sure they have. The original LR rwd, dual motor, and performance 3 back in 2018 were all much higher priced. They adjusted prices at every step of the tax credit reducing. When the tax credit comes back, they should absolutely raise the price of the car (and will).

    2021 EV Tax Credit

    If (when) the bill passes, I'm pretty confident that tesla raises their prices on everything. The cars already have great demand, why wouldn't they take advantage of additional margin by just raising the prices? For model 3 - that means the SR will be the absolute cash cow. LR dual motor 3...

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Ordered in January of this year - order has been hold. Tesla said I have until December 2nd to take the order off hold, or it will be canceled forever. I figured, eh, lets see what happens - I think I did that on 11/24 or 11/25. By 11/26 I had 2022 VIN assignment and scheduled delivery next...

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Man - good for you - that is unbelievable. Its amazing how people just don't want to 'wait' for a new car.

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Slightly off topic but on topic.... is there anyone in this thread with a prior year performance 3... or even dual motor who is trying to trade it in to vroom/carvana/carmax/etc. Are trade in values still silly? I'm in between if I want to get another tesla, or explore a different car - at...

    Selling reservation model x long range

    Perfect - every single thread should be closed. I do think the only workaround is the one I described.

    Selling reservation model x long range

    There are numerous threads in this for sale forum on reservation transfers. To my knowledge, the only way you can transfer a reservation is to essentially give your account over to the buyer. That isn't possible if you still have a tesla.... Would love for someone to educate me , or...

    Long Range Model Y Reservation Transfer - Delivery date is for December 2021.

    Thank you for outlining this - I've been wondering how people are 'selling' their reservations. For me, I have a model 3 performance order from January which is the equivalent of a $4000 discount.... so I was curious if I could sell that. Seems like alot of jumping through hoops with me...

    2021 EV Tax Credit

    If the bill passes which disqualifies a sedan over 55k... It would be weird that only the performance version of the model 3 wouldn't qualify - that would really hurt sales of the performance model. Theoretically, a solution which I can really see happening is to sell the performance for...
