    Condensation inside tail light

    My 2021 M3 was left out in the rain last Thursday and I noticed major condensation in the taillight, which is still there today, Monday. Shouldn't be happening on any car much less a new car. I hoped it was a fluke, but based on my search and this thread, it's not? I set up a home service...

    Delivery / Service Issues (panel gaps, delivery delays / issues / Service problems etc)

    Took the car in for service for the paint "thumbprint". Unfortunately it will require some paint work - but it's so visible I think it would drive me crazy to see it every day. Our particular service center is a little rough - the building, that is. The staff all seem to be doing their...

    Who here financed through Tesla without verifiable income?

    I have a credit score tickling 800, I only paid TT&L, so I financed the full amount of the car. I put down our household income and was preapproved at 2.49% for 72 months without documenting anything. I don't think I've ever had to show proof of income on any car transaction I've ever made.

    Any one know what this does?

    You might check under the seat? There is a slimline sub by Kicker that can fit under the seats of some cars - we have one in our Jeep Wrangler - has a very similar knob.

    Delivery / Service Issues (panel gaps, delivery delays / issues / Service problems etc)

    I took delivery on Saturday. It was a breeze. Panel gaps and paint were perfect - until I got home and it sat under my bright garage LED lights. I found one imperfection in the paint, right above the B Pillar on the drivers side. It almost looks like a thumb print, a slightly dark shadow in...

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Picked my car up this morning, the delivery process was a breeze. Only took maybe 45 minutes to an hour. I couldn't find any flaws - I looked at all the regular panel gaps, glass/panel gaps, headliner smudges, etc, and couldn't find any issues. The rest of my day will likely be spent...

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    This morning I got an email and a text about my delivery - plus my account now shows that I need to make my payment, etc. Delivery date officially set for 8/21. Bummed it's after the EDD range of 8/14-8/18 but I'll make peace with it. To recap: Didn't really think I wanted a Tesla. Lease...

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    This morning it was 8/17-9/06. Just checked again at 2:00 and it showed a VIN and updated to 8/12-8/18. I knew since I was within a week and it hadn't changed that I had to be due a VIN at any time....

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    My EDD has been 8/17-9/06 for at least a week now, but no VIN. Ordered 7/5. I keep refreshing that order page like a crazy person waiting for the VIN to show up. Seeing all these people get theirs is making me jealous but excited!

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Ordered 7/5, LR, white/black/18" wheels. Originally 7-10 weeks, then was Sept. 20-30 for about two weeks, now no date or range of dates. I did the help chat on the website and they weren't particularly helpful.

    What do you think of the uberturbine wheels on the M3P?

    I like the look of the uberturbines, but I just got out of a car with high performance wheels and tires - 21" Pirelli PZeros on an Audi SQ5. I got sick of spending $1600 on tires every 12,000 miles, so I went with the basic 18" wheels on this car.

    How does Tesla choose who gets their car first?

    My delivery date keeps changing, so I'm going to just stop looking. It's too frustrating. lease on my Audi SQ5 ends July 31 so I will be sharing a car with my partner for who knows how long.

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    I ordered my Model 3 LR last night! I have been driving typical Acura, Lexus, and Audi cars and suvs for years. The lease was coming to an end on my Audi and I just was not excited about anything out there, and dealer inventories are low, so they aren't willing to negotiate on the bloated...
