For those of you with a red 3 and 19” wheels and put on Wheelbands, did you go red track/red insert or silver track/red insert?

Did you go just red inserts or red track too?

I’d trade in tomorrow for a two door hatchback. Or, a two door hardtop convertible. The former would obviously sell much better than a convertible

Those of us who can’t charge at home would disagree. More range means less frequent trips to the SC

So if my math works, Tesla bought $1.5b, had net cash outflow on Bitcoin of -$1.2b so they must have sold $300m for a profit of $101m in the quarter. Not bad

I’ve had nothing but good experience with Tesla service. BMW OTOH was horrible over two cars and more than one dealer. Reading the boards it sounds like the Tesla experience is extremely SC specific

Since they went chrome delete I think they should have made the side mirrors black too. My local SS manager chrome deleted his red S including the mirror housings and it looks great. He has black wheels too which completes the look

I have owned Porsches in the past but only had one car (an S) when I decided to buy my 3 (Dual motor LR). I drove a Cayman amongst others and just didn’t like the pedal lag you get with even the best ICE cars. Once you go electric you just can’t go back(wards) to ICE. Admittedly I didn’t have...

Sadly it’s service center dependent. I’ve had great experience here in Portland, OR. Much better than I ever had with BMW over multiple dealerships. Lexus was the best I’ve experienced.

Or their previously owned inventory has risen too high. Dynamic pricing. Tesla actually gave me the highest amount last July.

2 door, hatchback, heated steering

I have no wifi in my parking spot so I swing by Tesla Service every few weeks to connect to service wifi and snag an update. I go on Sunday when service is closed so I can park right by the garage entrance

I love the 3 dash. I’d like the S to have the 3 dash concept but with a wider screen and nicer finishes. I really prefer the 3 air vents over the S. Note I own a S and a 3.

Knock on wood I’ve never had a chip on my S or 3. I used to own a Mitsubishi Montero and that sucker’s windshield was practically vertical. Had to replace the windshield every year

Great info! I live where a normal hand wash isn’t easily done. is there a particular brand you would recommend? For a car that has front PPF and ceramic all over do I use the no wax version?
