    incredible - makes the car pop. If I park next to an MY with real turbines u can see a difference, BUT - they still look “real” (rims), they don’t look like plastic. So worth it.

    New m3 rwd owner here. I took delivery yesterday and connected to Tessy right away. At full charge it’s reading 60.5 with a 274 range. I guess I got lucky on the pack.

    Peace! We picked up our car yesterday, one day early. From May to yesterday it was almost exactly 20 weeks. It WAS worth the wait - the car was perfect. We were side-by-side with a couple inspecting an MYP, and we kidded about our respective waite times. We all took an hour to go through our...

    I’m getting the same message. This morning my EDD was also updated to the 18th to the 28th. This is my first narrowing of the two week window of 14-28th. One thing you can do is call a dealership and ask what the computer says about a guesstimate for your Vin date. I walked into dealership in...

    Received text that they're currently planning to build my car

    I just received the same text. This might be new - I read that Tesla has more M3 and MS cars (Fremont) EOQ cars planned than people waiting. They said the 2023 rebate caused a lot of cancelations.

    I called my rep about the unsent mobile charger & he recommended I order one now from the Tesla store, then return the second one if it ever ships. I ordered one and already have a shipping label - should be here in a few days. Apparently when I ordered the car/charger in May they were both...

    The RWD L2 wall charger negatives: Almost the same speed (saves one hour in an overnight charge), is more money and is not portable. Positive: Looks cool. This will be our 3rd Tesla & we’ve only ever used the portable charger the car came with.

    I hope that’s true - but I’m afraid to chance it. My OD was May 2nd, I paid for a Mobile Connector on May 2nd, and have heard nada from Tesla. How would I even go about finding out if it’s shipped? I called my local rep and they told me to email teslaorders.com, which I did. Crickets. How do...

    My 2021 M3 SR+ lost 8% in the one year I owned it, and the tesla service department told that was normal. 1-2% per year? That’s just not true. Sold it and got in line to buy a Tesla with LFP.

    The M3 LFP battery only disqualifies the RWD model from half of the credit, & the rear wheel drive model would still get $3750 off. However I do expect TESLA to raise the RWD price by that amount, and to drop the long range model price to $54,990. until recently the price difference for the two...

    Just received my first “move up” EDD. My OD 05/02/22, previous EDD was 09/24-late November. Based on what I’ve learned here, it sounds like I might be getting part of the late third-quarter local rush of deliveries, as I’m in Southern California.

    I ordered my RWD in April when the long range was still under the 55k cap at $54,900. I wonder if I could defer purchasing my rear wheel drive until January, upgrade to the long range (which I can buy at the price listed when I first made my order) and get the rebate.

    The 2022 FLP HIGWAY range improvements are substantial. In addition to charging to 100%, you get an additional 26 miles of rated highway range. This combines to give the 2022 RWD a USABLE 72mph range of 205 miles. My old (sold) 2021 SR+ had a usable range of 170 miles at 72mph. 2021 Tesla Model...

    Performance winter tires for M3P and 18" vs 19" wheels

    Maybe you can help me with a technical question? 1. Why does the new M3 RWD only lose 2% range with the 19-inch sport rims, while the Long Range loses almost 7%? Do the RWD have different tires than the long range? 2. Is the range loss mostly in city driving or highway? I'm guessing city, since...

    I would wait. We had the 2021 M3 SR+ with NCA batt for one year & lost 9% of range even though we charged 40-60%, drove on chill and never supercharged. A Tesla tech told me 10% loss in first year was common ( though above average), then added that the only cars that didn’t happen to had LFP...

    I upgraded wheels to 19inch on RWD but have not seen my EDD move up. I’m tempted to remove the wheels (have B&W interior, but white paint. Any harm? I’m also curious as to why the 19 inch sport rims lower the M3 LR range by 24 miles and the M3 RWD range by only 5 miles.
