Been reading a lot about the Model 3 and the delays in production (not surprised as this was common with the Model X). However, the lack of proper instrumentation is bothering me. I am also a BMW guy, and the frequent use of the M3 terminology often confuses me and makes me check the forum I...

I've been a way for a while and haven't been able to respond. As for all of the comments that headlights are automatic...yes, most cars have that, but what do you do when the sensor fails and your headlights don't turn on....do you just take a cab or an Uber instead? Also, a physical button is...

Seems Blue is a popular color choice, that is why I am trying to choose something a little more classic.

I think there is a complete disconnect in the comments being made and what the OP was putting forward as a concern and an important safety topic. Forgive me if I am repeating something already mentioned, I have not read through all 8 pages of this thread. OP is concerned that there are no...

Sounds like a great build. I am still debating to go dark grey or silver. Maybe Black as that seems to be my fallback option. I doubt I would go for the upgraded wheels as the 18's are fine, can be used as a winter set, then I can purchase something a little more stylish for summer (it all...

Thank you for the details. I had no idea that the extended range battery offered faster charging and a faster 0-60. I really don't care about 0-60, however, the usability is what is important. When you say that it will save time, that is important (in some situations). I too am showing late...

I guess the sounds made by passengers depends on how well they trust your driving skills. As for the car, I am sure there are the typical PDC sensors.

I suppose this would be true, but I have been a BMW owner for over 10 years and all BMW models (even ones I don't own), have had the 5x120 bolt pattern. I know it can be a choice based on costs or availability, but keeping standardized sizes also makes it easier for parts personnel and public...

Thank you for the post. I find it a bit odd that they would be using a variety of different bolt patterns. It would be easier if they kept the 5x120 - this would be the same as the Model S/X

Yeah, I have seen that they are charging $9k USD for the long range battery. Just curious if that would convert to $12k CAD or an adjusted value. Just seems pricey for 100 miles of range. My reservation is indicating a late 2018 delivery, however, I was hoping for late 1st quarter 2019...

There is different data available elsewhere. Which is correct? Tesla Model 3 - Specs of wheel sizes, tires, PCD, Offset and Rims for all model years

I may have posted in the wrong section....posted a question on the Model 3 under the Alberta Owners Club thread and not here

Does anyone have details on the Model 3 yet? Seems there are a handful of forum members getting their orders. Mainly I am curious on the conversion for the extra range battery and the availability of an AWD model. Thanks,

Is this proven to be true, or speculation. I have seen both bolt patterns listed for the Model 3. TSportline is showing 5x114.3 Other sources are showing 5x120

Congrats on the pending delivery of your new Model X. I'm sure you are glad to be back in an EV versus your current ICE
