    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    How do you all feel about taking it to automatic car washes?

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Just wanted to provide my thoughts on the car after three days of ownership for anyone who was in a similar position as I was while waiting on the car / deciding to order one in the first place... It really is a great car. First things first, acceleration: Yes, the car is ridiculously fast at...

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Thanks all - was able to get a 220V installed today for $350. More than I was expecting or hoping to pay but it is what it is... It is the 14-50 style plug, so will be getting *hopefully* 30 miles per hour when the adapter comes in.

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Have any of you decided to go with 220V charging instead of the Tesla Wall Charger? I've been calling around for estimates to have a 220V outlet installed in my garage and am pretty surprised at the $600-$1,200 quotes I am receiving...

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    That’s what I thought! Rims do indeed seem alright thankfully... It looks like a huge nail/screw. After reading this forum I thought the noise I was hearing had to do with some window gap/panel misalignment so never thought to look at the TPMS. Then I heard the pop and sure enough the system...

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Well.... 2 hours after picking up, I got a flat tire! Was pretty surreal after waiting 8 weeks. Hope you all never have to experience it, but Tesla Roadside was amazingly helpful. Was very cool to see how they knew I had a flat before I started talking. Sent the tow truck to me free of charge...

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Got mine today! Was surprised to see the SC wasn’t busy with pickups... Was so excited that I barely inspected the car, but will definitely find the time to do so in the next 24 hours.... The car is soo fast, but for me, the best parts of the car is the livability of it. Autopilot in the city...

    Thanks. What exactly is the difference between reporting issues during the 3 day 100 mile period versus during the warranty of the car?

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Picking up my car tomorrow afternoon! It seems front passenger side door, wheel alignment, and frunk closure issues are some common observations in these recent builds... Anything else I should look out for?

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Here in Dallas and did the same yesterday. My car arrived Thursday but delivery is scheduled on Sunday, so hope I get a call to come early... Don't know what it's like in Houston, but no ninja suit was necessary for my recon! The lot was so busy that they didn't even notice

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Same. Was originally scheduled to pickup 9am Sunday, but they will now be delivering it to my house 9am Sunday... Did not receive a notification about this, just found out by looking at my account. Would much rather pick it up than have someone drive it to me.... Don't see how that's an...

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Agreed... Performance is an obvious money grab and lack of differentiation to justify the added cost over LR feels lazy.... That said, here I am waiting to pick mine up on Sunday 🙃 .. Air suspension, cooled seats, bucket seats (current seats are very comfortable but feel the performance should...

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    So interesting to see the varied takes of the ride quality. Of course everything is relative to the cars we are coming from, but nonetheless all of this is very helpful! Great to hear the ride is nice coming from a history of Audi's. Likewise interesting to hear about how the car feels at the...

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Sounds amazing. Jag and Porsche seem to have created some cool sounds but I prefer Tesla’s approach. By the way, I’m in Plano! My last car was a Civic but have spent time in friend’s Lexus/BMW/Audi’s so was hoping to emulate that refinement.

    That’s great to hear, thanks! Overall cabin/wind noise is good too? Hopefully we pass each other on the roads in Dallas, you’ve got a great spec.

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    It’s me again, the annoying guy dreaming about air suspension.... To those that have accepted delivery, can you please speak to the ride quality of the car? Is it overly rough? Or stiff in a sporty way? I have never driven the Performance... Thanks Eddie for mentioning your thoughts!

    https://www.teslarati.com/tesla-model-3-model-y-adjustable-suspension-update-owners-manual/ The icon I'm referencing is the one right about the red "Brake" icon. The fact it was included in the last batch of updates has me either concerned or excited?? I've noticed some 925 VINs, I wonder if...

    Model 3 Performance Changes [in suspension and tires]

    Actually the opposite.. From what I understand the new Uberturbine wheels are 0.5 inches too wide for the tire they are mounted on, so the tire is "stretched" to compensate. There are a few videos on YT comparing the old wheel/tire combo vs the current, and the conclusion is that it is a harsher...

    Model 3 Performance Changes [in suspension and tires]

    Yeah, I drove the LR but it just felt a bit sloppy when pushed... The store unfortunately did not and has not had a Performance available to test drive for the past two months, so I ordered the Performance without ever driving it. I've read a lot about the ride quality on the new Uberturbines...
