Do you have existing account/mortgage with Scotia?

Not to be a dick, but how does one not get approved? I have never applied for a car loan before, but i thought it was guaranteed?

tesla offered my 3.08 today for under 60 months? why aren't people going with tesla?

What’s the latest on Canadian deliveries? Last I heard it was purchasers decision.

i suspect rates will be dropping. this new variant is going to hammer the economies again. might smack inflation down though.

isn't tesla website showing 2.7% over 6 years? Am i missing something here?

ordered almost the exact same date in Vancouver and have a similar EDD. You arrange financing yet? Looking for the best deal in town?

so looks like the rebate is all good still. thanks for all the answers.

Price just increased above the magic $55,000 threshold for government credits. No credits from feds and provincial governments $8,000 worth of credits in BC.

Saw September yesterday. 5 month change from a few days ago. Must be a retooling of some sort.

Interesting. Maybe the shocks are stiffer on the M3. My Camry was 20 years old though so shocks were s little worn.

Agreed. Toyota has reputation though. Hyundai still trying to earn a reputation.

Went for a test drive the other day my order arrives in January. Car drives very heavy (cause it is) assuming the shocks might need a replacement at some point over the next 20 years as well.

I regret not adding more choices and clarifying the question better. Window to edit the original post was very short. What poll voices would you add?

Legally don’t they have to support older models?

Interesting article on the 20 year topic. https://enginepatrol.com/how-long-tesla-model-3-last/

Most Toyota’s are good for 20 years. I suspect the battery degradation curve will go up substantially at some point. Kind of unknown at this time though. Huge revenue stream for Tesla as some point though.

Lack of moving parts is a biggie. Used parts/electrical components will likely become cheap over the next decade or so which will keep these things running on the road. The more and more i think of it, this will likely require a battery swap out and that is it.

Scrap metal for the batteries alone will be worth several thousand bucks.

A few repairs here and there. Not enough to retire the car though. Assuming with an M3 it will be the same unless rust or major structural issues occur. Maybe poll/question need some fine tuning.

My current car is a 2005 Altima. Still going strong.

Will a Model 3 SR+ last 20 years with driving on average 15,000 km/year (10,000 miles/year). The car should easily run 300,000 km but will the battery decline (due simply to age) that the battery needs to be replaced at some point?

In vancouver area and just got a quote for $2000 for $300 deductible and $2 million coverage for a M3 sr+. i am a perfect driver, never a ticket or claim over 25 years. Wife is the same over 10 years. previous 2005 Nissan was comparable.

In Vancouver, SR+ white. Ordered sept 14 and received estimate of January 18 - feb 7

Thanks for the clarrification. Fairly new with the EV thing but recommended distance vs. max distance are vastly different. This is the one thing that has irked me with the EV market.

Current batteries are not supposed to charge above 90% or draw down below 20% hence 70%

Not sure about that. I ordered a bare-bones Model 3in Mid-Sept and they quoted me February delivery. Seems in the last 2 weeks the delivery date for new cars has moved an additional 2 months.

the 70% usuable charge is a big downside. looking forwared tot he LFP.

Ordered around September 20 and delivery is February 2022. Looked today (2 weeks later)and new orders are now scheduled for April delivery.

Does rattling increase over time with the Model 3?

Design and specification changes between Tesla Model 3 2018 and 2020 model years and between LR AWD and SR+ models great article. Lots of small changes.

What is the quality difference between the original 2018 Model 3 and the new 2021 models? Better quality control etc. Have features been improved?
