    Braking problem or Automatic Emergency Braking?

    The Tesla service center just sent me a text. They said their tech reviewed the logs from my car. What I experienced was automatic emergency braking. They said the car is operating as intended. So, now I know.

    Braking problem or Automatic Emergency Braking?

    Do you get any type of info alert letting you know that AEB activated? I get alerts when I get out of my lane and it has to correct the steering, so I assumed it would.

    Braking problem or Automatic Emergency Braking?

    I believe I was within 1 car length. I was stopping on my own and would have came to a complete stop within maybe 1/2 car length. It was close, but not what I would consider 'danger close'. I just got a text from Tesla service asking me details. They said a virtual tech was going to review it...

    Braking problem or Automatic Emergency Braking?

    I have had this happen two times now in the past month, and have a service visit set for 20-Jan. I don't know if it is a braking failure, or AEB kicking in. In both instances, Autopilot is not engaged, I have been coming up to a redlight where the car in front of me is slowing. I let off the...

    "Acceleration Boost" option, discussion as to which models and how much quicker

    I saw a video posted of someone doing a 0-60 after the boost upgrade. With me using my ultra scientific stopwatch held next to the computer screen, I timed it four times and each time got right around 3.6 seconds.

    "Acceleration Boost" option, discussion as to which models and how much quicker

    Thanks for your feedback. I got my 2019 LR AWD a few months ago. I wanted a Stealth, but there were none available and I didn't think anymore were going to be made (according to the Tesla SA's), so I settled. I knew then that I would have buyers remorse if any more Stealth's hit the lots, and...

    Go test it out and report back on your seat of the pants feel.

    "Acceleration Boost" option, discussion as to which models and how much quicker

    Ok, so this car new (pre 2019.36.2.1 software) was listed as 4.4s. Then after the 5% increase from the software update, the posted 0-60 times never changed, but how could they not have with a 5% increase? Now, with another upgrade being offered for $2k, what is the real world upgrade? It...

    M3P- . What is it, how to order it, etc.

    Please send me a contact as well. My wife is so on board that she told me this weekend to just go and get the regular Performance model. Any other time I would have probably jumped on the opportunity to get something while still claiming the ability to say "but you said to just go get it"...

    Is it worth it?

    I am likely ordering a new LR AWD tomorrow, but saw that used Performance model and stopped long enough to ponder it.

    Is it worth it?

    Great, I really appreciate the candor. Thank you!

    Is it worth it?

    The only thing I think would make a difference is if it had full self-driving enabled. Agree or disagree? Thanks for your feedback.

    Is it worth it?

    I'm looking at a used 2018 Model 3 Performance. It has 19k miles. Red exterior with white interior. The price is $49,600. I don't know yet what AP version (AP, EAP, FSD) it has yet but I am going to find out tomorrow. Would it be worth $49k if it was just AP? What would you do? Buy or pass?

    Model 3 'Non-Performance' Performance option, real or not

    He said they were all gone in the US. It's unknown if and when they'll be back.

    Model 3 'Non-Performance' Performance option, real or not

    This is good to know. Do these cars get released in batches on any type of schedule or is it just ad hoc depending on demand for certain areas?

    Model 3 'Non-Performance' Performance option, real or not

    Thank you. I'm chatting with a Tesla advisor right now to see if he can find one.

    Model 3 'Non-Performance' Performance option, real or not

    Or better yet, how much did you save by taking all the cosmetic stuff off?

    Model 3 'Non-Performance' Performance option, real or not

    What was the price of it compared to the LRAWD?

    Model 3 'Non-Performance' Performance option, real or not

    I need someone to tell me if something is legitimate or not. I keep reading about people getting an OTA "Performance update" for their LRAWD model, or getting the Performance model without some of the add-ons of the regular Performance model (20" wheels, track mode, etc). The thing is I see...

    Recommendation for 18" tires on a performance 3

    Just curious, but would this throw the speedometer off or is there a way to calibrate the car to tell it you have different size wheels?

    Things to do when getting a new Model 3

    Would you mind quickly putting the cost beside each one of those? Thank you!

    When should I buy?

    Thanks for the grammar correction @TW14 9LF @mswlogo, would you mind giving me your thoughts on why FSD is a waste of money? I am not sold on FSD. I mostly just like the idea of it and it seems like a lot of R&D is going in to it. Do you consider it more of a gimmick, or just an overpriced gadget?

    When should I buy?

    I keep telling myself that I am going to schedule a test drive and order/buy a LR AWD M3 with FSD. Is there anything that should encourage me to order right now vs wait a little longer and hope for end of year sales drives that may open up incentives or anything like that?
