Also PP3D here but in blue.....I'm considering red or white at this point to get it faster....I'll wait till next Friday for good news... otherwise I think it's going to be red

You give me hope and made my day a little better lol.

I wish, my edit button went away last Friday with the new confirmation page

I never have read about this before but now that you mention it. I always thought the blue in the configurator was more "electric" than the previous blue I've seen. If that's the case I'm okay with the extra wait. Lol

Its kinda hard to believe that the free standard black is being issued VIN's of the performance variation and a premium color option like blue isnt... whatsup with that?

Damn it not a single blue has been invited yet...maybe they will give me better answers if I call them bluffing on if I can cancel still lol

Ah I see, I'm guessing it will be about 2 weeks from your vin date. I'm trying to get a grasp on how long between VIN date and chicago landing as I'm trying to use my vacation days around this whole thing.

Your a previous owner rdmdriving?

Flavo, When was your earliest delivery date?

Day one in store reservation. Initial config M3P 6/26 reconfigure 7/13(added performance upgrade);Blue M3P+ [perf upgrades package]; no trade;Cash selected but doing a loan. Recieved new confirmation page at 8am CST....i guess that kinda closed the book on me changing to a white interior lol

Wow lol I didn't even see the white button....its like they are hiding it on purpose....had me fooled lol

Will this cause delays to past orders? Or did they just making it exclusive to early buyers for the time being?

Why are you two posting of you dont have an actual delivery date?

Lucky you, looks like blue is going to be the last color to get sent out lol

Color? Previous owner? Config/resv date

Microprocessors that sense wheel slip and correct it hundreds/thousands times a second. Idk the sample rate in these cars. I'll sell you my stock 20" wheels & 4S tires with 40 miles on them for $3k when I get it

Lol Springs would be the cheapest part to make a variation of in low volume...its just coiled metal...just look how cheap aftermarket spring companies sell theirs for the standard model 3 suspension. 1cm is probably a good medium of enhanced driving/ geometry without sacrificing life...remember...

yea sorry i was thinking mm and wrote down cm lol and no it doesn't leave you with 3500 for 20" wheels and tires...it leaves you 3500 for thats and calipers, suspension, speed upgrade, and all the cosmetic crap.anyone that tracks the car often, it offers more value than the standard P. other...

you also have to remember the suspension is lowered by 10cm which inst much but its safe to assume there is different spring rates at play and possibly even adjusted strut valving. honestly its a really good deal than i initially thought with the front and read 2 piece rotors. as those will cost...

Why is there not a for sale section where people can buy/sell/trade their parts and acessories for their Teslas?

i think the 18" aeros may just barely fit.

you guys dont think thats a single piston caliper out back? ive never seen a 2 piston like that so maybe someone else can chime in.

damn it, i just changed it. i hope this doesnt delay me badly. hopefully red calipers have additional priority lol

They cant be the same as they are a different bolt pattern...

So this cutout is not for the model 3?

Where did you get this page of the owners manual. It's not the one on teslas servers

Lol everyone here that still thinks they are getting bigger rotors and or calipers are funny

I have a performance and it's also blank

So what happens If you edit design then? Does it still go off the date you paid the 2500 configuration deposit?

Fyi, I will be receiving and official email stating the specifics about the caliper design or of it indeed is just the color, along with a definite answer on whether studio design changes effect place in delivery timeline and/or free lifetime wifi benefit. I will post my findings after I recieve...

Brakes would not have any effect on a driving maneuver such as drifting like this. Unless of course this is a programmed setting that has a higher threshold for yaw to allow this to happen In a controlled way(track mode). I could see that...damit I think I'm gonna upgrade to the 5k package if...

Hmmm I dont see red calipers in that video do you?

Has anybody been assigned a VIN yet or at the very least has their "edit design" button disappeared yet?

Has anybody been issued a VIN pr has their "edit design" button disappeared yet?

Honestly I dont think elon musk would say the performance version is 15% faster than a m3 and make the brakes different from one performance version to another...the car has to equally enhance braking as it does acceleration just for the simple case of idiots that are going to whoop the crap out...

Unless your an engineer for tesla and know something concrete that we dont, it's all just speculation.

I mean If your not going to take it to the racetrack its honestly a waste of your money. Especially If your having any trouble justifying the price. It was a no brainer for me at 78k, but then again I'm a gear head. Grind it till ya find it....lol

Did I see a Performance Model 3 mule yesterday? Seems that my logical explanation may have been spot on about the brakes afterall....performance rotors and non red brakes spotted at a supercharger...

ah i didnt see that nor look into it that much, i simply went off the wheel diameter + sidewall height and did the math real quick by hand on scratch paper. anyways i'm sticking to the base model. 5k for heavier wheels and appearance package seems like a pissing contest more than anything. kinda...

if you click between the standard and the options package you can see that the lettering on the calipers doesn't move. you would think that the lettering size and location would change atleast a little bit based on the size of the caliper. the only thing that makes financial sense for such a...

i had one in graphite gray. god i miss that thing, this car is supposed to fill the void as my AWD cadillac ATS 2.0 on e85 is just a boat that overheats on the the track non stop and pisses me off. so glad i leased the piece and can just give it back come october.

where does it call that out? can you point me to it please.

your right they are not a solid indicator but because the same team is designing them im guessing they will be using the same style of engineering. kinda like how when people solve math problems differently but in the end they use the method they know best for all of that same problem. why would...

to be honest im going nuts also but im actually a design engineer by trade and have done manufacturing internships at borg warner while in college so i understand almost all of the stuff going on and have alot of faith in him. this level of engineering is hard. and you think a solution is easy...

they told me it is simply the color red. which makes sense for the following reasons that i suspected when i initially opted out. arugument #1: standard model 3 = $49,000 Standard model 3 AWD = $53,000 Performance model 3 = $64,000 point #1: they use the same exact motor that simply has a...

I just called My local delivery center and they said it's just the color red. It kinda makes sense as I dont think they are charging 11k over the standard awd model for a double burn in motors... at best that would be double the price also it would bring you up to 58 so the other 7k is probably...

does anyone have clarification on the model 3 performace brake package? i was under the assumption that its just a color change. i mean why would you not pair faster acceleration and higher speed with more braking force? i really wanted the silver brakes and aero wheels for the sleeper look so...
