    Cannot for the life of me decide an exterior/interior combination

    I’ve only put 1,000 miles on the car so far, but can say that the MSM shows less dirt than the white (the white to me was pretty bad with bugs showing on the flat nose). I think the MSM looks nicer overall between washes and then just pops hard post-wash. Oh and one thing I will say too is that...

    Cannot for the life of me decide an exterior/interior combination

    I had a black Model S, white 2020 Model 3, and now MSM 2021 Model 3. I originally wanted go white for the 2021 Model 3 as well, but my wife convinced me to go MSM for a change-up and I absolutely love it. The MSM finish has way more character than the white, especially in the sun, and looks...

    Does anyone recall M3P vs LR AWD used car prices before the shortage? Trying to decide between the two for a new order.

    I forgot about this thread - I ended up taking delivery of my M3P two weeks ago. Zero regrets on the decision to switch my order from the LR to the P. I have already scrapped my plans to sell the 20" rims ha - just like the look of the car too much with them on (have the MSM exterior and love...

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Hi all - to add to this thread; I ordered a MSM/White LR AWD on September 6th and then changed my order to a MSM/White Performance on September 14th. After ordering the LR AWD, my delivery window was October 12th - November 12th. Upon changing my order to the Performance, the delivery window...

    Does anyone recall M3P vs LR AWD used car prices before the shortage? Trying to decide between the two for a new order.

    I am actually in a similar boat. I had a 2020 SR+ that I was able to sell for more than I paid for it new (as a Tesla demo) a year and 24k miles ago. I did the same initial math as you and had initially ordered a LR AWD (at current pricing) as a replacement with the plan to immediately add the...

    2020 SR+ AP to 2019 LR AWD FSD via Carvana

    I still question whether or not the FSD capable used cars have HW3 or not. I can see Tesla tacking on no-cost software upgrades on used cars to command higher dollars, but I cant see them putting HW3 into all used FSD cars. I wonder if they will allow you to get HW3 at no cost if FSD is enabled...

    2020 SR+ AP to 2019 LR AWD FSD via Carvana

    Ahh - that is a very good deal on the Tesla site. Definitely makes more sense to go that route especially with the boost guaranteed. Great price. Here is the referenced spec in the event the listing goes down:

    2020 SR+ AP to 2019 LR AWD FSD via Carvana

    Oh totally agree - they have a bunch of LR RWD cars labeled as AWD in their system. For this particular car, I am going by the below picture regarding FSD: Which matches/goes with the below picture containing the vehicle VIN:

    2020 SR+ AP to 2019 LR AWD FSD via Carvana

    All - I was perusing local Model 3 listings on Carvana and came across a 2019 LR AWD with 21k miles and FSD (with HW3/stoplight control) selling for $44,990 (white with black interior and 18" rims). Clean car, clean title. From what I've seen, it does not appear as though Carvana/Vroom know how...

    Cooler recommendations that fit in the sub trunk or frunk?

    I have a Yeti Tundra 45 and it fits in the rear trunk sub-floor. It just sticks out about 2 inches too high for the sub floor cover to go over it. I can upload a picture if folks are interested in seeing how it fits.

    2019 Model 3 long range dual motor

    Potentially interested. Any particular reason(s) for selling?

    Considering upgrading to LR (from SR+)

    I can offer some feedback here. I went from a 2014 Model S with the High Fidelity sound system to a SR+ and find the SR+ to have noticeably better, and richer, audio quality. I too was worried about audio quality of the SR+ pre-delivery and found it to be excellent (at least from the driver's...

    TRADE IN PAYOFF TAKING FOREVER!

    Had this happen on a trade. This is on Tesla, not Genesis in this case. In my case, Tesla had showed record that they initiated the trade payoff via ACH transfer shortly after trade-in, but the bank had no record of payment ever being made. I had to prod the Tesla a few times on the matter and...

    Red Light Warning on Non-FSD M3 with Full Self Driving Visualization Preview?

    Yesterday I was driving with basic autopilot enabled and came up on a red light at decent speed (~40 MPH) and a large red stoplight icon flashed on my screen where the speed limit sign is usually displayed and a warning chime went off. I found this interesting as my car does not have FSD enabled...

    Satin Black Model 3 Performance 20” w/ Pilot 4S & TPMS

    Nice looking rims, GLWS! I am planning to powder coat my sport rims black as well and was thinking of going satin black too (vs gloss). While I am not a buyer here, I'd really appreciate some additional pics of these rims on the white M3 (same color as mine). Thanks!
