    locked car won't open occasionally even with my iPhone in hand.

    Also if it’s recording in sentry mode. It takes a while to cancel out of it to let you open the door

    Has the M3P ruined me?

    I love my 3p. But it doesn’t make me Forget the errand I was planning to run when I get behind the wheel.

    Nintendo Switch charging in the rear

    Not enough power to charge. Switch needs about 18watts. I think the car ones are max of 15 won’t break even if the thing is just on. You will need a 12v to 120v ac adapter. Prob get a 300 watt one as the price difference is much compared to the less powerful ones. Or a larger battery...

    Torn betwee LR AWD with speed boost vs Performance main concern is badweather/tires

    I got a 3p. Hit a pothole with the 20s. Bubbled the driver side front and rear tires. Tried to switch out the 20 summer tires for 20 all seasons. Everything on back order. (Hard to blame continues supply chain issues). Had to re up for the mich pilot sports summers. If you want a...

    Has the M3P ruined me?

    Hard to compare. 3p is a 455 hp or whatever car. Similar power ice car is still quick. Maybe not 0-30 due to traction but it still pulls past 65mph. But it’s still my favorite bang for the buck 4 door sedan. It’s not fair to compare it to a 600 plus hp ice car that’s much lighter.

    Anybody come from a sports car to Tesla?

    There’s no wrong choice of an exotic car. They are all great in their own way. Don’t let the nay sayers get in your head. They all have their personality and pitfalls. It’s an emotional purchases that you spend money on for a brief moment of joy when using it/looking at it in the garage etc...

    Is it ok to get 1 new tire in back/passenger non-repairable flat (AWD model 3)

    If you’re not racing there will be no issue. You will have less grip on both acceleration and max breaking distance. Age of tire is important but not as important as tread depth. How much wear is on the 3 old tires?

    What did you sell/trade for your 3?

    Regret? After a year in the novelty wore off. Now it’s just a car A to B car. Good city car. But for driving fun I’d keep the cayman

    Which tire is faster - frivolous debate

    3R. A lot of us track drivers on other cars have ditched the mich cup 2 and pirelli trofeos. As they are equal ties for the fraction of the price. But they 3r is hard to get tires at the moment.

    Anyone done this to your Model 3??

    I have experience with dihedral doors and lambo scissor doors. The model 3 would be terrible to open the door handle design is already cumbersome enough. Closing is also a big pain if the door swings out too far as reaching the door pull would be tough. It looks cool but not very...

    Uggh, tired of flat tires, suggestion for wheel/tire combination 18 vs 19"

    if you don’t mind giving up traction. Just get the 18 with non sport tires. The sticker the tire the more chance you will pick up debris. Otherwise it’s just bad luck with where your driving.

    Roadster vs Porsche GT3

    That’s a good call. You can be confident that the car will come and not be vaporware. Deposit is actually a place in line. Is this going to be a canyon carver or check in the box for experience?

    Roadster vs Porsche GT3

    Can’t go wrong with any 911 flavor. Fun cars for back roads and fair price minus the ADM and dealer games. 991.x gt3 cars are finally coming down in price.

    Ordered M3P coming from FBO E85 Golf R...hope the Model 3 can check the same boxes

    It’s a heavy car. From a performance Ice car driver it won’t “feel” great but you can mod it to be capable. For daily driving and freeway on and off ramps it’s great. As for the compartments. Amazon has a bunch of budget sliding trays for the center console. The aftermarket support is...
