    2020 M3P, professionally modified, single adult owner, 12k miles - DFW

    These pics taken five minutes ago. Apologies, I didn't wash/detail the car prior to this, but wanted to capture all flaws as I'm not one for bsing people.

    2020 M3P, professionally modified, single adult owner, 12k miles - DFW

    I'm evaluating whether there's sufficient interest in the Tesla community for my car as-is instead of paying to have the modifications removed, returning to stock, selling the aftermarket parts, and trading the car in. Details: White on black 2020 M3P (grey vinyl wrap) 12,334 miles as of today...

    2020 M3P wheels and tires (<500 miles) Cincinnati

    Great transaction. I priced aggressively to try to eliminate all the negotiation hassles. Don’t have time for that stuff. Mlong5905 could not have been easier to work with. Wouldn’t hesitate to do business with him again! And, of course, SOLD!

    2020 M3P wheels and tires (<500 miles) Cincinnati

    Selling my pristine factory M3P 20” wheels and Michelin P4S tires. Package also includes center caps and factory installed TPMS. The entire package has less than 500 miles on it. I took delivery of the car in mid September and it very shortly went in the shop for a wrap then aftermarket...

    Pic of your Model 3.......RIGHT NOW! [model 3 pictures thread]

    Thanks. By and large you can’t, no. Obviously having white as the base color makes it the most likely to show through. If you look hard enough you can spot just a little bit, but that’s more my OCD vs what the average person looking at the car will see. I’m the same with any little flaw...

    Pic of your Model 3.......RIGHT NOW! [model 3 pictures thread]

    I looked at a couple but I’m a long time Subaru guy and they’ve always been a well respected company. Agree on the blackout but they have a dark grey option that ended up matching the wrap really well, and it’s dark enough that it’s very subtle. I must confess I took the easy way out and had...

    Pic of your Model 3.......RIGHT NOW! [model 3 pictures thread]

    Thanks! It’s been a work in progress since I got it in September. Essentially done now save for a potential for a set of dedicated auto cross wheels. Wrapped, tinted, ceramic coated, Rally Armor mud flaps, MPP sport coil overs, UP sway bars, Signature wheels (20x9.5 square running 275 PS4s)...

    No body stuff (other than mud flaps). Wheels, coilovers, and sway bars.

    Install day coming up! All these are going on the car Wednesday. Goes into the shop tomorrow afternoon. So it’s pics of my model 3 parts right now.

    Thanks! It’s theoretically closer to Lamborghini Grigio Telesto. It’s a bit darker than the chalk grey save for direct sunlight. (Pics from when it was in process to show good indoor lighting)

    Good view of the wrap in the sun this morning headed into my tennis match. Very different in direct sun than shade.

    Post your biggest F&*# ups

    Oh man, I feel your pain there! The second day I had my Porsche Macan (it's sitting in the driveway, waiting to go back upon its lease term now that I have the M3), I closed the garage door while the rear hatch was open. There's an arm that sticks down from the garage door and it hit the lip...

    SCCA Autocross Class for the Model 3

    Just wanted to add, I ran my first autocross in about 15 years this past Sunday. Ran the car completely stock (with all of 100 miles on it). It was an absolute blast! After the first run I dialed back the stability control to -2 and the F/R bias to 60% rear. The adjustment seemed to allow a...

    Car was delivered on 9/15. Parked it for the week then took it in for wrap, chrome delete, tint, interior wrap, and ceramic coating. Just got it home. Has all of 56 miles on it so far. Coilovers are on order, as are wheels, sway bars are sitting in the garage along with a bunch of other...

    Please check my thinking - second set of wheels for AutoX and winter

    Thanks for the feedback! I’m not worried about range, fortunately. I’ve got my first autocross on 10/4 and I think I’ll wait to see how hard that bug bites me before I commit to dedicated wheels...

    Please check my thinking - second set of wheels for AutoX and winter

    Is it because of the compression/rebound adjustability? Here’s the language I found: A. The make of shock absorbers, struts, and strut housings may be substi- tuted providing that the number, type (e.g., tube, lever, etc.), system of at- tachment and attachment points are not altered, except as...

    Please check my thinking - second set of wheels for AutoX and winter

    Yikes! I appreciate the confirmation on the 255 on 8.5. Coilovers are on order (MPP sport). Camber arms bump me from SS, though it may well be a worthwhile trade off. I’m going to my first autocross in a long time with the M3 stock on 10/4. I think that will give me a better feel for where...

    Please check my thinking - second set of wheels for AutoX and winter

    I appreciate that. I should have mentioned I have MPP coilovers on order too. Camber is obviously going to be an issue and unfortunately not one I can correct with aftermarket and stay in the same class.. I *think* I should be able to squeeze a 255 width RE71 on an 8.5" wide wheel.

    Please check my thinking - second set of wheels for AutoX and winter

    I picked up my new M3P last week. It's getting wrapped, tinted and ceramic coated right now. I've got a set of Signature wheels on order that I plan to run daily through spring/summer/fall. I live in Cincinnati, which gets very little snow, though some winter weather, and I work from home so...

    Vendor Official Signature Wheel Gallery | Fitment Q&A Thread

    It was definitely a difficult decision! So many choices. I'm embarrassed to think how much time I spent looking at pictures of different model 3s with different setups.

    No worries. Gotta wait for the coil overs to come in before it all gets installed anyway. Patience has never been one of my virtues. ;)

    Winter driving advice, winter tire choices, etc.

    Thanks! Getting back to modifying cars again after a long hiatus and just went a little hard on the ordering while waiting for the car, lol.

    Winter driving advice, winter tire choices, etc.

    Please accept my apologies for redundancy if this has been addressed already. I did some minor searching but would appreciate feedback. Situation: M3P being delivered next week. Have new wheels (along with sways, coil overs, etc) on order and will have installed pretty much immediately. New...

    Online store

    I did last week. I'd bought a J1772 adapter in preparation for my ordered Model 3 as I'd ordered a Chargepoint Flex thinking I'd not be able to get a Tesla wall connector in time (that changed, got the Tesla wall connector). I submitted a return request per the instructions and in about 24...

    Wiki Model 3 Order Tracking Spreadsheet

    Thanks! I ordered a white/black M3P. No FSD. It isn't going to be driven for a while once I get it. Going in immediately for a color change wrap, ceramic coat, then coilovers/sway bar install and likely wheels too.

    Wiki Model 3 Order Tracking Spreadsheet

    8/6: Ordered 8/10: 3-6 Week text 8/27: VIN assigned text 8/29: Deliver self schedule text (which, of course, falls perfectly in the one four day time frame I'll be out of town for the first time since early March, lol. Working with my SA on that). Delivery window offered was 9/10-9/12

    How long does delivery take?

    Mind if I pile on to this with an Ohio-related delivery question? Do they add a temp tag for the vehicle? I'm going to be transferring the plate from my current car but the Tesla is going in immediately for a wrap and some other work, so I still need the plate on the existing car for a couple...

    Tesla wall charger availability

    Similar question here, and didn't want to start a new thread on it. Tesla site has shown the wall charger as being out of stock for a couple of weeks now. My model 3 is on order and I'm anal enough I want everything set up and ready to go when the car arrives. I've gotten the quote from the...

    Wiki Model 3 Order Tracking Spreadsheet

    Thanks. The trade-in prices for both Carmax and Tesla have swung quite a bit the last couple of months, but so far the better money is to hold and return at end of lease. Never leasing again!

    Wiki Model 3 Order Tracking Spreadsheet

    Just ordered a white M3 Performance last night (no FSD). I've had a spreadsheet of accessories and modifications prepared for two months now. I may be one of the few people who hope the order is on the longer end of the estimate, lol. My Macan GTS lease doesn't get returned until early...
