Gabriel SportsCar in Yonkers. I have had great experiences with Frank and he was one of the first certified Tesla body shops in the area.

I would second this. Every time you mount and dismount tires, you are risking damage to the rims. Even the most experienced mechanic will slip up on the steel pry bar and mar the finish on the rim. It only takes less than half and hour to perform the swap and that's without power tools and just...

I had the front clip and rockers wrapped in PPF. Like you, I live in the northeast and they use a liberal amount of salt in the winter on the roads. Every car I have had, has been riddled with chips in the paint from the salt, not rocks or other debris. It gives me peace of mind when driving...

Thank you!

Awesome! Any issues? I've got a set of SeaSuckers and am afraid of using them. There are a few horror stories of cracking roofs.....

You should be able to make both of those. It really depends on where your final destination is. The route to Ukiah is all downhill for the second part of the trip, so you would regen all the way down. I‘ve done the Ukiah to Mendocino round trip on an LR without any issues.

Interested if they are direct plug and play.

Range Tips - Tesla Directly from Tesla: Maintain a regular, every-day charging routine using a low-voltage charger. It’s best to rely on high-voltage charging (i.e. Supercharging) only when necessary. Whenever possible, don’t let the battery go above 90% or below 20%.

OP - Good decision. I had the same dilemma and originally ordered a LR and then switched to the P. Like you, I am coming from years of BMW ownership (E46 M3, E60 M5 and E90 M3 - all manuals). I knew I would always regret not getting the P and am so glad I did. The performance of the P is truly...

There's nothing inherently incorrect or technically flawed about using wheels with ring adapters. BBS forges centers in specific bolt patterns but uses ring adapters to fit the wheels to specific car model. I have never heard of an issue with any wheel that used a ring adapter to fit the wheel...

Pics of the damage to the rear wheels?

Wow! Thanks @JulienW for that data. I didn’t think the power would make such a dramatic falloff, even at high SOCs.

Thank you for the answer I was looking for. I’d like to carry my bike but sounds like people have had problems with cracking the glass with the roof rack installed, even if it’s installed properly.

Also interested in this question. Like Ofarlig, I have PPF on the metal roof panel. I would also worry that the pads of the rack would also deform and stretch the PPF.

I’ve been using those tire totes for years and they’re great.

There are plenty of them on Amazon. Tire Totes Wheel Felt

I did...... for my snow tires. The ride is definitely "squishier" with the snows compared to the PS4S and most of that is from the taller and softer tread blocks. Still running them at 42 psi. I plan on running 20s when not on the winter setup. Might splurge and get some forged wheels, but...

I switched from Geico to State Farm because of the exact same reason. Call the local agent and get a quote. I’ve got both my homeowners and auto insurance bundled together. State Farm not only matched my coverage, but was cheaper too!

agreed....

Similar experience with Geico here. They wanted to triple my monthly. Shopped around and I got great quotes from Progressive and State Farm. Went with State Farm on the recommendation of my preferred body shop.

Unfortunately, my Aug build does not have them. It seems as though it was reintroduced sometime in late Aug.

That's a great idea. Going to use this!

That stance looks great. Any rub on front or rears with the spacers and drop?

Took delivery last Wednesday and just had PPF installed.

Unfortunately, it sounds like the bodyshop is trying to up sell you the more expensive repair to make more profit for themselves. Based on your photo, it looks like the damage is just to the paint and not the actual bumper. That's an easy respray job that is only going to add a 4-5 mils...

Congrats! Same configuration as me.......and that blows that theory out of the water. Not linked to white interior.

Congrats! I wonder if my car even has the wiring for the auto-dimming side mirrors.... not holding my breath for it.

Like many here, I was insured with Geico. I've been a long time customer (11 yrs) and bundled both homeowners and auto insurance with them. Then, when I was about to take delivery of the M3P, they increased my rate over $1000 for 6-months! No reason, super clean driving record. I spoke with...

Michael - Are you also picking up at Mt. Kisco?

Doesn’t look like I have auto-dim side mirrors. Don’t know production date, but it’s sometime in late Aug. Black interior and no FSD here, wonder what the magical order is to get them?

Mine didn't show up until after I took delivery. The SA needs to change something on their end to specify ownership.

Thanks! Saturday is just around the corner. Good luck!!

Thank you! It was an amazing drive home!

Yup!

Delivery is tonight at 5pm. Very excited and fingers crossed that there is nothing wrong with the car...

Received a text that the car is on its way to the pickup location and scheduled delivery for Wed, Sept 16.

Originally ordered a LR M3 7/30 and changed my order to a M3P 8/24. Got a text yesterday saying my car is 2-4 weeks from delivery. Should have just ordered the Performance initially....
