    Slacker radio search doesn't work

    So I have Spotify Premium and I'm logged in, but anytime I use voice to play or search for songs (or even type it out on the screen), I only get results for podcasts, and sometimes it will randomly show results from caraoke. This is really frustrating because I usually just end up having to play...

    Purchasing FSD on used car before transferring account

    So he went ahead and gave me access to his account, and I have to say I'm pretty discouraged. When I was in talks of buying this car, I asked him if it would cost more to get FSD since he didn't have Autopilot, and he said no, but now that I'm looking at it, I do have to pay an extra $3k for...

    Purchasing FSD on used car before transferring account

    So I just purchased a used Model 3 from a private sale that I'm scheduled to pickup this weekend. It doesn't look like I'm going to be able to get the Tesla account transferred into my name in time for pickup. It's not a huge deal, as he's just going to give me access to his account for now so...

    Question about paying for supercharging for recently purchased car

    This is something I'm curious about, too.

    Question about paying for supercharging for recently purchased car

    So I just purchased a used M3. I'm still currently waiting for the previous owner's bank to release the title and for him to mail it to me. It's in another state, so when it's time to drive it back, I'll have to use Superchargers on the way home. If possible I'm going to try and get the Tesla...

    What is the best way to handle payment?

    So I'll give an update to this, as I did something similar to what you're saying. First off, I'll say this guy was very trusting, and this is something he must do a lot (I don't think he was a car dealer, but I think he was in the business of finding cars for buyers), because ain't no way I...

    Purchasing a M3 that's only been supercharged

    Going by the order agreement, it looks to be solid black.

    Purchasing a M3 that's only been supercharged

    Will that cause a problem with Supercharging it on the way home?

    Purchasing a M3 that's only been supercharged

    Thanks for the list! I've been browsing around trying to figure out all what I could add. I've never really been a car guy until now. It feels like Teslas are on a whole different level for me. I actually already saw the MAXpider floor mats in a video and they look very worthwhile for the...

    Purchasing a M3 that's only been supercharged

    Ha, yeah I'm already looking into a ceramic coating, window tint, and I'm probably going to switch over to some matte black wheels. I may look into some custom lighting, but I don't want to get too garish with it. I have a feeling this is going to be a huge money sink that should be instead...

    Purchasing a M3 that's only been supercharged

    He does have the rear spoiler and the emblem, although he said the emblem isn't on the car. I still need to find out about the charger, but I'm sure he'd have it. And he has rubber mats. As far as logistics, yeah, it's going to be a total pain. He's about 8 hours away, and the car is financed...

    Purchasing a M3 that's only been supercharged

    He doesn't have FSD, and going by the description, I don't think he even has enhanced Autopilot. I get confused about what has came standard with the different models at different time periods. Either way, I asked him if it would costs more than the $7k for FSD since he doesn't have Autopilot...

    Purchasing a M3 that's only been supercharged

    Oh wow, I didn't know that payment for supercharging had to be transferred. Thanks for the heads up, because it's a long trip to where he lives, so I would definitely need to charge a couple of times on the way home. But there should be time to get it transferred, so I'll talk to him about it.

    Purchasing a M3 that's only been supercharged

    At that time I talked to him, he didn't know the exact date, but he said he ordered it December 2018. It's the performance model, which of course has the performance wheels, and is black. And if the alignment is out, I'm totally okay with that. For the price I'm getting it for, I can pay for an...

    Purchasing a M3 that's only been supercharged

    Okay, I have to say #1 is totally foreign to me as to understanding it. I'm guessing if I send that request, he'd know what I'm asking for. But once he gives sends that photo, I would compare that with other people's M3s?

    Purchasing a M3 that's only been supercharged

    I'm looking at buying a Model 3 and I asked the guy how he's been charging it and he said he lives in a condo, so he's only been able to use the Superchargers. It has roughly 7700 miles on it. Should I be concerned about the battery life being degraded any because of this? He said he's mainly...

    Brand New Tesla Model X P100D for sale

    Just an update for those interested. I ended up selling it on Only Used Teslas for $105k to a dealer in California. It went surprisingly quickly, I had it listed less than a day when it sold. Now I'm looking to buy a Model 3 Performance and use the rest to pay down the mortgage (I back slid a...

    Do I get free HW 3.0 upgrade if I buy a used Tesla?

    I'm in the market for a Model 3, and I'm considering purchasing a used Performance model (from an individual and not Tesla). Now whether the car comes with FSD already equipped or if I purchase it myself afterwards, do I still qualify for the free upgrade to HW 3.0 even though I'm not buying it new?

    Brand New Tesla Model X P100D for sale

    Ha! That is exactly what it is! I'm a follower of Dave Ramsey, and soon I'll be finished with baby step 6! But I am going against part of his rules, as I'm just going to pay off MOST of my mortgage and use the rest to buy a Model 3, which goes against his rule of owning a vehicle worth over half...

    What is the best way to handle payment?

    There is no loan on my part, so I have the title, but I would imagine most anyone buying this would need to take a loan out. So that may make things easier, I think? Because wouldn't I need to take the title to the bank that is giving out the loan, and they would just give me the money right...

    What is the best way to handle payment?

    I'm looking to sell my Model X, but I've never sold a car to an individual with this high of a value. What is the best payment method to use? Cashier's check or some type of escrow? I'm just really paranoid about handing over the vehicle without knowing for sure the payment is legit. Thanks for...

    Brand New Tesla Model X P100D for sale

    I know I'll want to keep it, that's exactly why I don't even want to drive it! As for what I'm driving, it's one of the least sexiest car to be in existence, the Prius, lol. Here's the thing, I don't know how well off everyone else in this forum is, but I'm just a regular Joe Shmo. While I do...

    Yes, I've already been talked everything over with someone from Omaze. Here's the details from this particular Sweepstakes. "Grand Prize: 2019 Tesla Model X P100D + $20,000 Cash Sales tax prepaid and up to 25% of ARV will be paid by Sponsor to the Winner to put towards any required income...

    Yes, they are providing the money to pay taxes. I'll still owe some, but it shouldn't be much. I have an appointment this week to know for sure.

    Brand New Tesla Model X P100D for sale

    I'm not sure how the Sweepstakes company will handle everything pre-delivery. If they give me access to my Tesla account before delivery then maybe I can get it moved into someone's name, but I don't how they would react to that, as there's a whole to-do when they deliver the car (video...

    Brand New Tesla Model X P100D for sale

    Whew, just woke up to this thread with a lot to process. To Simon21, this is being built from scratch. Omaze does not keep any of their prize cars in stock when they begin the sweepstakes because of the fact that they offer a cash alternative (if someone accepted the cash, they would be stuck...

    Brand New Tesla Model X P100D for sale

    What sort of evidence would you want? I could link you to the winner page with my name, but that's obviously not proof. It's fine if no one believes me, I'm mainly on here just to get an idea of what I can sell this for. If anything, I thought about putting it on Only Used Teslas. I saw some...

    Brand New Tesla Model X P100D for sale

    I'll keep your offer in mind. It all depends on what the dealer offers me, and what other offers I get. Although that's over 40k less than what it costs new. Do Teslas really go that far down in value as soon as you drive them off the lot? Seems like they would hold value better than that.

    Brand New Tesla Model X P100D for sale

    It's legit, lol. I actually talked to one of the previous winners about what to expect. She got her car with no issues. She got lucky in that she sold hers for just $10k less than what it was worth. Not sure if I'll be so lucky.

    Brand New Tesla Model X P100D for sale

    It is tempting to invest, and my rate is fairly low, but I absolutely hate debt, even a mortgage. Once this is paid off, I will have no debt whatsoever, and that is a piece of mind that is better than no other. And since I will no longer have a house payment, this frees up plenty of money to...

    Good to know! The Sweepstakes is also paying sales tax, so I'm good there.

    Brand New Tesla Model X P100D for sale

    Yes, they did offer a cash option, but when weighing the two, it seemed like a better idea to take the car, as they will pay most of the taxes for it. Whereas with the cash option, no additional tax money is provided (I'm guessing they figure since they're giving you money, you have the cash to...

    Brand New Tesla Model X P100D for sale

    I'm kinda curious if I would be eligible for Tesla's 7 day return policy. I think the title is going directly into my name, so I'm not sure if there is anything stopping me from doing that.

    Brand New Tesla Model X P100D for sale

    So I'm in a bit of a unique position. I just recently won a Model X in a sweepstakes, and I was able to pick all the options I wanted, so I loaded this thing up with all coolest stuff. But I'm not going to keep it. There are just too many other things I can do with the money I would get from...
