    Some customers are getting offer of $7500 off + 10k free miles

    w/ the $7500 tax credit? Not likely (even though quite a few folks/families won't qualify).

    Extremely Poor Model 3 Quality and Experience [and all issues resolved by Tesla except for one]

    Maybe it's because the OP lives in fadfad where road condition is extremely poor?

    New Quarter -- New Incentives?

    Most likely it was your SA who randomly put a referral code on your order. The referral program is always available.

    New Quarter -- New Incentives?

    In Q3, only the double SC referral (1k mi => 2k mi) was officially advertised online. The free 2-yr SC was only mentioned by SAs in store and customers online. The free upgrades was also only available by SAs (for a very short window, like one week or so).

    New Quarter -- New Incentives?

    Q3 incentives were probably due to earnings pressure, as well as management chaos (free upgrades). But with the surprising profit, there may not be any incentive in Q4. Plus, they already raised M3 prices after Q3.

    Anyone getting 2 Years Free Supercharging/Upgrades

    Any order should qualify for the two-year free SC. The two free upgrades was only supposed for pending orders matching inventory cars, though some folks were able to take advantage of the chaos even if they placed new orders. The real reason could be that an order placed on 08/15 may not be...

    How long to get registration card - California

    Sorry to hear that. Sounds like single? Joint would make it easier to qualify. But, hey, if your household income goes over the joint limit - that's actually not a bad thing right? I'd prefer going over that limit to qualifying for the rebate. :p

    How long to get registration card - California

    I believe the temporary registration is valid for the $2500 CA rebate, but the $800 PG&E rebate would require the official one. Did you use the temporary docs for that $800 rebate as well?

    How long to get registration card - California

    Second that. I'm also waiting. BTW, I ordered custom plate as well. I'll probably wait until the new custom plate arrives, as the HOV stickers will have plate number.

    My 20-day-old Model 3 got rear-ended today...

    Just filed claim with insurance. Not sure how busy is Tesla body shop - I've heard that it may take a LONG time to get anything repaired.

    That poor lady - her car was also rear-ended by another one, and then hit mine.

    Model 3 Price Increase - Mid Oct 2019

    Back then the white paint cost more. If you dig white as I do, that's another $1000/$1500.

    Model 3 Price Increase - Mid Oct 2019

    Hopefully that's just a display issue (like free upgrades in Sep). It's okay for Tesla to change price online whenever they want but I don't think that should apply to placed orders.

    The price was not locked in after you placed order?

    Model 3 Price Increase - Mid Oct 2019

    Second that. The $100 fee is now a charge that does not count towards sale price. Previously the $2500 deposit would cost them $75 (~3% transaction fee), and now they simply charge $100 which translates to $97 net after fees. The difference is $172 to them. So, technically, besides the sale...

    Model 3 Price Increase - Mid Oct 2019

    P3D was $54,990 in early Aug for a short time and then $55,990 during Q3. But for $56,990 at least the wheels now come with a new color (those who ordered couple of days ago for $56,990 didn't have the new color, though).

    Anyone getting 2 Years Free Supercharging/Upgrades

    It shows the last "paid" SC amount. I took delivery on 09/28 without SC readout, but got a number later after using SC for $8.xx. Couple of days later the free SC was enabled in my account - since then any SC won't count at all, and the previous number and date stuck forever. I'd assume it...

    Is this gap by design?

    Demo vehicle pricing

    Their policy is always changing, not only the Pro-Forma stuff, but also income cap, etc. Check out their latest sample doc: https://cleanvehiclerebate.org/sites/default/files/docs/nav/transportation/cvrp/documents/SampleSupportingDocuments.pdf It clearly disqualifies "Pro-Forma" Tesla vehicles...

    Demo vehicle pricing

    If you are in California and intend to apply for the $2500 rebate - stay away from demo cars. Tesla could describe it as "New" or "New - Previous service/demo vehicle" (Pro-Forma) randomly. California won't honor the rebate if the car is Pro-Forma.

    Recommended tire pressure reverted for 18" wheels?

    I've read some posts saying that the original recommended tire pressure for 18" wheels was 45 psi, and then it changed to 42 psi (door stickers). My M3 SR+ was built and delivered 09/2019. However, the door stickers show 45 psi: I checked owner manual and it shows 42 psi there. I believe...

    What is this thing in my Model 3? Anyone knows?

    Yes, the two doors soft open. I found this video on YouTube: So it appears to be one of the two gears highlighted: By comparing the open speed, I suspect the upper console door (left in video) is missing one gear, as it opens quicker than the other one.

    Found this little thing (gear?) in console box. I checked around but had no clue. Anyone knows what it could possibly be? Thanks!

    I requested a written confirmation in email from the SA when I placed the order and got it the same day. Don't be too worried about it!

    Anyone getting 2 Years Free Supercharging/Upgrades

    Same delivery date. Same "Pay Per Use Supercharging" in account as of now. I've used SC on 09/28. Dashboard shows ~$8 cost but I don't see any charge yet. Called SA and was told it's fine, just wait till October.
