    South Carolina lowest insurance rate ?

    Mine is insured through State Farm? Travelers is a SC broker you can get a good deal through. I was with them for years.

    Tesla (OS) Browser - Parental control missing

    This is a great thread for explaining the concept of self restraint and conscience.

    Would You Order One with a Non-Glass Roof?

    I prefer a metal roof. My head is 2" away from it, I have it covered with screens, and I see no purpose for it.

    UGH - The smell of it. [AC Smell]

    That is something well within my skill set and I'll be the one doing it next time. I didn't expect having to pay for it in a 6 month old car. It's very short sighted of Tesla to clear maybe $25 in profit for a service call that dissuades me from buying another one. Not bothering with issues on...

    UGH - The smell of it. [AC Smell]

    Climate control design is b*ll$hit. Smells like a rotting dumpster.

    Model 3 Performance Vs Giulia Quadrifoglio?

    It's not a real comparison. Italian cars have character and flair. The downside is they will break your heart at any given moment. I'd lease anything with Italian parts and give it back when the warranty was over. Tesla is a no frills daily driver that disappears into the background while you're...

    Vision only sucks ass

    Even I have to admit the 2022 TACC has gotten better over time and with software changes. I still don't trust it 100% but it has improved significantly.

    Best clay bar kit for beginners?

    My preference has been to use this instead of clay bar. Much easier and faster to use. Nanoskin autoscrub

    BMW using a brushed motor

    I have personally never used a SC because I charge at home as well. Probably, there are more than 2 people in the same situation. I'd certainly like to see a better charging network for the East coast in general but I would have very infrequent cause to use it.

    2022 m3p no longer dropped

    That would be almost 4 inches so you'd be 100% wrong. Here's a helpful conversion link: Google cm to inches

    BMW I3 with Range extender

    I drove a 2017 model one for 3 years without much issue. I paid $28k for the car with 8000 miles on it and it had every option except adaptive cruise control. In terms of BMW reliability, it was great. I had a fuel tank pressure sensor and charge port door motor fail, both of which were replaced...

    lightweight wheels model 3 performance 0-60 testing

    You should google moving threads off topic and sticking your nose around everywhere possible for the sake of a post count. Maybe you could list out your design patents over the years to enlighten us and then report me to an admin because you can't get everyone to agree to baptizing their...

    lightweight wheels model 3 performance 0-60 testing

    You can invent a concept and patent it without actually building prototypes. You can also invent something and get screwed out of the patent. You can also not bother with a patent for an idea that is not able to be realistically defended in court, which is likely the case here. At least that's...

    6’6” tall. Is the M3 for me?

    There is no space behind the driver's seat if it is adjusted for a tall driver to be comfortable. Almost all of my cars have essentially been 3 seaters. My 18' long 69 Impala is a notable exception.

    6’6” tall. Is the M3 for me?

    I'm 6'7" and fit just fine. My first litmus test for cars is I have to be able to sit in the driver's seat with the back straight up and not have my head touch the roof. In a M3 I can do that wearing a ball cap and still have room. I'm proportionally sized. I know what you mean about getting out...
