    Atlanta, GA Waiting Room

    Got a call back after responding to the text trying to schedule a new date. Based on what I’d read I was fully expecting them to ignore me, so I was very surprised to get the call. Apparently my car will be in ATL on 11/28, so I’m now taking delivery on 12/1 since I’ll be in town for a birthday...

    Atlanta, GA Waiting Room

    Just got my text today about an estimated delivery (MR Red EAP) of 12/4 at the Alpharetta / Roswell Tesla. Very excited.

    M3 MR delivery dates

    Just ordered this afternoon 10/20/18. MR Red w/ EAP. Originally when I was looking at a base black, the delivery estimate was 4-6 weeks, but when I finally pulled the trigger it was 6-10 weeks. Assume the Red was what increased it. Incredibly nervous about not getting it in time for the...

    Model 3 size comparison?

    That's really weird. I had a 2015 A3 TDI and now drive a 2016 Civic 4-door. They seem very comparable in interior space. It's hard for me to believe that the A4, much less the A6, wouldn't be a big upgrade in terms of space. For that matter, it's what I've been expecting in my reserved Model...

    What kind of options/upgrades are you considering and why?

    I'm in Georgia, so no need for dual motor for me. Must have: Leather w/ HEPA EAP & Full Self-Driving Glass Roof (I think? I should check this out in person) Will probably splurge for: Red Paint Bigger Battery Air Suspension Not much interest in: Performance mode Dual motors (what's snow?)...

    From TDI to Tesla

    I ended up turning in my 2015 TDI Audi A3 on 12/30, after buying a gently used 2016 Civic EX-L for about 1/2 of what Audi gave me. I had originally planned on trying to hold off on the buyback until Sep '18 when my M3 might be available, but I was just too worried about the risk of totaling it...

    From TDI to Tesla

    2015 Audi A3 TDI owner here. ordered my Model 3 on Friday April 1st, just after midnight (so technically April 2nd). I had planned to just keep driving it for another 2 years before the sellback period expires in Aug '18, but i'm getting more concerned that I won't have my M3 by then...

    Anyone want to team up on a savings thread to keep each other motivated?

    Yeah, forgot to mention that. 2015 A3 TDI. So yeah, i'm getting back close to what I paid. The key is delaying the buyback as long as possible so I don't have to get an interim car.

    Anyone want to team up on a savings thread to keep each other motivated?

    Budget - really unsure, depends on features. Low 50's probably. Savings - $0 (for a car, all extra money is going towards house right now), but Audi will be buying back my A3 for ~$38K and I'm going to delay that until 2018 when hopefully my Model 3 will be ready. Will probably take out a...

    Fund a big percent of your M3 purchase by buying Tesla Stock

    I haven't read all the posts yet, but this is a surprising thread around financial investing advice. I wanted to give at least one quick answer to this assumption that TSLA will skyrocket with the M3, though it's probably my answer has already been given later in the thread. By investing in...

    If You're Reserving -what car are you coming from?

    2015 Audi A3 TDI....part of the messy VW diesel emissions scandal. They will be buying this back from me...which makes me a bit worried on what I should do to bridge the gap between that date and my reserved model 3 being available.
