Awesome. If you had to only choose one car, which would it be? I only weekend/joy ride and I'm considering Plaid/Taycan/911. A part of me wants to enjoy a 911 because I have the rest of my life to drive electric cars.

Anyone have pics of an MSM M3 with black aftermarket wheels? Feel like it might look good

Thoughts on the Taycan? I find the "Sport Sound" to replace engine noise is pretty satisfying and fills the void better than Plaid's. Love your car btw, very tasteful.

dang, i was buying MSM specifically because i thought it looked good when dirty lol

I'm noticing MSM model 3s that are a few years old - the color looks different, not a sparkly/bluish, and doesn't look as good, quite frankly. However I see newer MSM model 3's and it looks great. Did Tesla start using a different paint recently or does MSM age poorly? I'm currently considering...

Ideally less than 20k miles. Paying in Cash in the Austin Texas area. Thanks!

Yes, all those cars have FSD, not interested

yes we're talking under 1k miles. I would only lose $250 by canceling reservation

Hello, I really want a Tesla model S soon, my reservation is in September! I am seeing some slightly used Model S's for sale at a good price out of state at a Chevy dealership. Since Tesla's warranty is so extensive, is there any real risk here in buying this way and having it shipped without...

Long story short I am looking to buy a model S from someone posting here. They seem legit. I dont have time to fly out and inspect the car/drive back. I plan to purchase it and get it shipped here. I'm not entirely at ease with the process, but I cant wait for 6+ months for a car. -What method...

Hello, I am planning on buying a reservation from someone on this site. Can I buy a reservation and change the location? The original buyer does not have his VIN yet, but delivery is in a few weeks. Thanks in advance, I'm new to this!

So you're not gonna tell us how we can cop them? ;) lol

Any pics? curious what these look like.. especially on a car

Curious if you have any of those pics of arachnids in gloss black? havent been able to track them down. thanks

Looks great! How much did this run you?

Still available?

Beautiful. Do you still have spacers on in these pics or is the car just lowered + wheels? Looking into something similar... thanks.

it is a huge waste. i think i might just not get a car or something :/

Why do I have to keep it plugged in? I live in a condo and only planned to charge it when it gets low (every few weeks or so)

What do you have planned? Thanks for the write up, informative!

I've read some about the car still staying "on" when not being driven. I only drive my car about once a weekend or so, probably put about 150 miles on it a month. Is a Model S not a good idea for this kind of driving?

About a month ago I placed it. I am thinking of just buying a M3LR, as I see them for sale for ~list price with <5k miles. If I feel the need for a Model S I can always upgrade later

Ha, I mean I see them slightly used <5k miles for sale around me. Can't find any MSLR non-plaids

I'm currently carless, ordered a Model S Long Range and delivery date keeps getting pushed back, now August-October! I've been researching purchasing used, but 95% of the Model S's I see are Plaids, and I don't want to pay the $30k premium for a car I don't want. I also don't trust Carvana/Vroom...

I canceled my model s for similar reasons. I live in the city, I prefer smaller sports sedans, and model 3 is plenty fast. Plus, I like a steering wheel LOL

I live in an apartment and dont have tools. What is the best way for me to install these mud flaps? Pay a shop to do it for me?

I've never even had a telsa or driven a fast car really. I'm planning on driving in "chill" mode for a while until I get the hang of it. Any pointers or getting use to this crazy machine?

Just want to give an update -- I'm getting a plaid NEXT WEEK. After making this call. Thanks so much, so excited. It was in a city about 200 miles away, my exact configuration, 40 miles :)

Will try this, thanks!

I did not

Hello, my Plaid delivery date through Tesla was pushed out from November to March. I see there is my exact spec available for 1k miles for sale at a BMW dealership near me. It's about $15k more expensive, but thats OK with me. Is this a terrible idea? I'm new to teslas and i have two concerns...

@vic55 looks great! no ppf? as you as new to tesla, any issues with rock chips on sides of the vehicle?

Seeing a lot of issues with rock chips on sides of the car and paint damage. Will MSM be much easier to maintain over black?

Is MSM just as difficult to keep clean as black? Saw one in person today and looked very dirty. I'm also trying to go for this look - what would i need to do? I hate how the stock tail lights look with MSM. Screen-Shot-2021-11-08-at-8-39-03-PM

I'm supposed to get mine in a few weeks. I plan to take off the front emblem and replace the back with a black emblem.

3exxxy. stock height or lowered? @SocalM3P

So MSM 3exxxxy. How old is your car? Any PPF or wax treatment?

thank you, i got the 21 inch wheels and will keep the stock wheels. apparently i should get mud flaps and hopefully it keeps it in decent shape

Thanks. have you had any issues with rock chips? From my reading, the wheel position has been causing some issues with rock chips in paint. Because I'm so new to tesla and not a car person, I'm not comfortable with getting my car wrapped in PPF. Do you think it would be OK without any? I've read...

@WilliamG Thanks for the response. I'm worried most about the wheel position and getting paint damage on the plaid. I've read about PPF but this also seems like such a nightmare - costs money, might need to be replaced in 5 years etc. as i said im new to tesla, and always own crappy cars so im...

I'm completely new to Teslas and have only driven slow-luxury cars. Money is no object, so i was drawn the Plaid, essentially to say I had the best tesla available. However I am not skilled at driving fast (big) cars. And 0-60 2 seconds seems like it would be scary fast and probably a danger to...

Just wanted to say your model 3 is sexy as hell. I was thinking of getting a model s, but instead getting a model 3 and going for your look here. Very tastefully done my dude

Hello, I am in new to teslas, ordered a plaid in black arriving soon. Am i insane NOT to get PPF? Is my car going to have a bunch of paint chips beyond what a normal car would have? I would ideally not like to spend another $8k on the car.. thanks

Anyone have any pics of a refreshed MSM with stock aero wheels and lowered? Would love to see. thanks!
