I am also in a similar boat, I have EAP and saw the upgrade notification to FSD. I don’t know if I should make the jump as I barely use EAP, summon or park. I have seen one person make the jump, anyone else?

I would like to have a 15sec forward/backward skip button, which is very useful when I am listening to podcasts using the phone. These buttons could be added in addition to the next and previous buttons on the interface. I am having to use the phone screen interface to use the 15sec fwd/bwd. I...

This is classic 'BMW prestige reared it's emotionally superior head', aren't we grown ups who can handle the emotional conflicts better? Er, rationally. I don't think M3 used in Tesla reference diminishes anything that M3 was.

Add me to the list as well. SR+ (03/19) with 90% at 203. It was 214 all along until a month or so ago.

Thanks for the reply. I have yet to find a good accurate pictorial that conveys what I am looking for. If the the CM is below the axle, the dynamics of weight distribution change, during braking the weight/load would transfer to the rear wheels instead of front, and during a turn the inner...

Porsche for the most part is in economics terms a 'Veblen Good'. The perceived value increases as the price increases without any tangible value addition. The only reason to hold back a mid-engined platform like the Cayman in favor of the 911 is exactly this reason.

Yes they do, like being in bed with the oil industry and selling the same repackaged product as new, I tell you - it's a racket that they have been running for last 50 years and we have been taken for a ride. :eek::)

Has anyone come across any information about the Model 3 or S and their center of gravity/mass numbers compared to other sedans and sports cars? I am looking for CG/CM height from ground. Something that would give us dimensions in the drawing below.

Thanks for the feedback, I am afraid that the gel will eventually transfer or etch the back surface of the screen. I haven't been able to find alternatives that don't have the gel. Since I have the SR+ M3, I need to use my phone for traffic information, another software option that I would...

Since you have used this mount for quite from time, how is the sticky gel on the suction cup holding up in high temp seasons, has the sticky gel disintegrated or gotten transferred permanently to the back the scree?

I have had two NEMA 14-50 outlets installed in the garage, one on each side, this included the electrician run a 100A line to the garage with a sub-panel that has two 50A breakers. If I need a Tesla wall charger later, I could always add it later. I have a SR+ M3, so my charge rate was maxing...

Thank you, I will mention it at the next mobile appointment.

I have driver's side door hinge squeak and the steering wheel squeak. What lube have people used on door hinges? How to get rid of the steering squeak, it squeaks when the steering is turned?

Putting a bigger engine in any car is the lazy way of making the car fast. If they want to make it advancement, improve by a factor of 2 or more the 18% thermal efficiency of ICE, but they won't. BMW and all the so called luxury carmakers rely on the emotionally perceived luxury of top 1/8" of...
