    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Hello all, Every three months about this time I check back into this forum to see what's going on. I was in the M3P waiting room class of Dec 2020, ordering 20 Oct '20 and finally picking up Jan 4. It's good to see so many getting their VINs. I almost didn't. I actually think Tesla has...

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    I don't know whether to laugh or cry with you. You've been here the longest... and it still continues. Would have loved to be a fly on the wall for that first Tesla conversation.

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Hi Eddie I am wondering about how much the front lip lowered the front clearance overall. I have a very steep driveway and the transition when the car's front wheels are in the gutter before ascending the driveway leaves about an inch or two of ground clearance. I too have white M3 and think...

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    This happened to me, though they removed my VIN and delivery date before I actually showed up to the appointment. It all worked out in the end though. Had I not got the a car on Jan 4, four days after what was supposed to be my delivery date I would have been really pissed. As it stood I was...

    2021 Model 3 Problems

    My $0.02: I got a production ramp / end of quarter / end of year car built in the last day or two of Dec 2020 and the car itself has been (nearly) perfect. No mechanical or computer problems. No apparent panel gaps. The only small gripe is in certain light you can see a little more "orange...

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    On some email exchange I had with my SA who works at the Rocklin DC, the email cc'd "[email protected]". After I started using this email in all my correspondence things picked up significantly. There is probably an email box like this for all DCs so perhaps you can try...

    Potential new owner has a few concerns [potential purchase in belgium]

    1. I don't think people in this forum are down on Tesla=the car. Certainly a majority are down on Tesla=the company. They have a great product and can treat new buyers and owners any way they want as they have weeks and months of pending orders. With all the problems with Tesla=the company...

    If you click the link and it goes to the "Don't see the Tesla you're looking for?" it's because someone already snagged it. I find this site easier to use and appears to get the same info: https://ev-tsla.com/ Wish I knew about this back in December during my three+ weeks of soul crushing ultra...

    Audio connectivity, Qobuz, Hi-res?

    I concur. Took delivery two weeks ago and for a few days used Iphone over bluetooth and the quality was very unimpressive. I finally formatted a SSD, partitioning it for separate cam/sentry and music partitions (find the thread for this pinned in the most helpful posts of these forums). The...

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    I just finished putting on the soundproofing weather-stripping kit I bought back in November. There is a noticeable reduction in wind and road noise. And the car was pretty quiet compared to my last car to begin with. I highly recommend this kit for everyone

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    One thing. Thanks to everyone on this thread. Just knowing more people were in the same boat and all the trials and stories did help to know I was not alone. Good luck to all you who haven't yet received yours. Its worth the wait. For those in California if you truly feel you been...

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Could be, what day did you see it? I picked up in Rocklin near Sacramento 1/4. My SA has been good overall. Was good about getting back to me except on the crazy 12/31 and their closed (I think) 1/1. The problem is corporate which switches around cars destined for true customers to make...

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Hi everyone. Sorry it's taken so long but I did get remediation from Tesla on my car. After sending a scathing email 1/2/21 to my SA and the Delivery Center main address similar to what I wrote above, someone called me back within three hours. They said that the car with my VIN was in fact...

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Me too I'm livid. I tried calling the number that sent me the text saying car was going to be delayed.(a 510 area code) but it said it was disconnected. I plan on contacting the California Department of Consumer Affairs, the CA DMV and any other state or federal agency that helps consumers. I...

    checked My Tesla account on web that showed it.... then about 20 minutes later got text saying: "We expect your Model 3 to be built in the next 1-2 days! We have tentatively scheduled your delivery appointment for 12/31 at 5pm at ...." But since I already bought FSD what benefit does this 3...
