That makes total sense but do you think the rainy situation affects the acceleration? Maybe the car detects tires potentially slipping and lowers the torque? I assume these cars have software driven traction control but I did not see any icons lighting up on the dash.

Hi, They just replaced the rear motor drive inverter on my brand new car (~120 miles). The acceleration feels much smoother/less violent from the stop vs if I were to floor it in the 20-40mph range. You feel the torque much stronger when the car is already in motion. It's almost like the car...

My brand new car is in service and I feel like I got a lemon. Definitely not a great first time experience with Tesla. I was driving my M3LR on the highway and got the notification that the rear motor is disabled and the speed was limited to 64mph. When the car shuts off and restarts the rear...

I picked up my car today and I am happy to say that the car was almost perfect. Reps there sort of pushed me to accept the delivery before seeing the car and told me I still can refuse the delivery after hitting accept as long as I did not leave the lot with the car (which I did not believe to...

I am super nervous about my pick up tomorrow after seeing all these posts...

Mine also shifted right once again. From June 6-26 to June 16-30.

Tesla matches rates. If you go with Tesla you don’t need to worry about the delivery date.

You don’t need a VIN to get a loan quote. At least not in my case in the state of CA. They usually can preapprove and lock the rate in for you for 60 days.

I am also confused about this. Is there even a confirmed model 3 LR in US that has the 82kwh battery?

My dates moved into future from May 30-June 19 to June 7-June 27

Did you place the order very recently?

Another update. Now the range is May 30-June 19

Go to Completed Tasks. Click on Show Details under the car price. Your APR should show under Financing Details.

I ordered a M3 LR AWD yesterday. I have little confidence Democrats can pass this bill as it is without the full support of their own senators. i.e. Manchin. They will probably pass some super trimmed down version of it with support from Republicans. I would think at that point the EV portion of...

Got another update. Delivery range changed to June 6-26.

Why would the CA orders be fulfilled last? Cars are produced here.

Tesla just sent me an email saying that they matched PenFed offer.

Ordered a white exterior/black interior M3 LR (without FSD) yesterday (5/3). I am seeing an expected delivery range of June 8-30.

I just got approved for 2.49% for 60 months term in Tesla's website then applied to PenFed and got approved for 1.99% for 60 months. I emailed [email protected] to get a better rate. After following this thread it looks like I should have emailed [email protected]. Did I make a mistake...

I just rolled the dice and ordered. The range difference will be negligible. I was worried about getting the lower capacity LG battery but apparently that was never used in US made cars.

I think your battery is Panasonic not LG. LG batteries were only used in Shanghai factory for European deliveries (and for a limited time) as far as I understand.

I understand your rationale. How does Tesla treat these kind of upgrades for existing unfulfilled orders? If I place an order and they announce the new battery before my delivery, would I get the updated car? I assume there is no clear answer to this. I guess it really depends on when the...

Do you guys think it's irrational to order M3 LR in US right at this time before the official range increase is announced? I am worried that I'll take delivery and a week later, they will announce the car with the updated/better battery.

So these issues are common then. It is kind of sad to receive a new car and get it serviced immediately.

Hey guys. I want to place an order but I really got a cold feet after seeing videos like this: Did any of you who just picked up their vehicles have similar issues?

There is some info here but I am not sure: MY LR New Features

I see. So hopefully it is a matter of a few weeks to update their website then. I wonder if there is a procedure with EPA holding them back from announcing the extended range. Do you think it is likely that you get a 82 kWh battery but be software locked forever since the car was never...

Based on what you wrote, is it guaranteed that I would get a M3 LR with an 82 kWh Panasonic battery if I were to order now in US?

Do you know whether your car has the new 82 kWh Panasonic battery?

I see. I assume this is just an educated guess though. It is quite possible to get 82kwh battery with the long range but stay software locked forever. I assume Tesla would not unlock these cars since older LR users might be angry. However if Tesla were to sell an improved range Long Range, they...

Is there no information about the battery in the cars made in US? I want to order a M3 LR but do not want to buy one with these LG batteries. Thanks.

It is super unclear. So which battery are the cars shipping from Fremont coming with? The same it always has been or the LG one?

Just to be clear I don‘t care about the origin of the product but I do care about the quality. It sounds like there is not much of a difference between M3s manufactured in US and China.

Hello, I am considering ordering a M3 LR in US. I have a few questions: 1. I read a few threads mentioning that the production quality is better in Shanghai plant. Supposedly, the cars produced there do not have panel gap, paint issues. Is there any chance a US order would be fulfilled from...
