Welcome to the Internet!

Stop talking to Tesla and find a lawyer, however it’s unlikely you would find one due to the previous 5 failed attempts.. You’ve made many mistakes.. Listening to the sales pitch, the highland news was all over the places by the time you took delivery. Tesla's Worst-Kept Secret: A Comprehensive...

I totally agree—if your car has been problem-free for the first month, you lucky bastard have clearly missed out on the full hardware QA experience. My own rollercoaster started within a week of delivery. Sure, some remedies seemed to help at first, but they were more like slapping a band-aid on...

Today marks the end of an era, or rather, the end of a rather tumultuous relationship with my '22 Tesla MS Plaid. After 21 months, 8,000 miles, and more trips back to the shop than I care to count, the car is finally being picked up by Tesla. It's been a ride filled with more drama than a...

Get full service records, test drive the car. If you want to buy sight unseen, stick to late 2023 build after the ultra red release.

Oh boy..

Red on white, 21 inches are not exactly great for resale. In fact you will probably have a hard time even at the same price compared to a black on black. However, you should be able to get 1k - 2k more for FSD selling private.

I have to move the plaid once in a while - still waiting for Tesla to pick it up for the repurchase. That smell is sour and rancid. Guess I was blinded by the acceleration. Never have I had a car smells like this after a rain yet is still considered within specs.

If loaner cars were in similar condition, you are in for a surprise buying sight unseen from them. I looked at “Cosmetic and Mechanical Standards”, and noped the hell out of an inventory demo.

I think 2023s are better than 2022s especially those before 2022/05. Just look at the doors and the gaps, the black windows trims were never aligned

In 2022, when the average cost of a MSP, unadorned by the FSD / Elmo tax, was a mere trifle at $119,990. In 4 years which is 2026, you'd probably need to throw in a complimentary charging cable and a heartfelt plea to get someone to take it off your hands for $65,000, assuming it's still in...

In 3 years, it will probably still come ahead of the plaid or guys who bought a plaid 2022 - early 2023.

Is you order canceled or still open? The Sales guys will lie about anything to get you take delivery sooner. Historically, once previous MY ends, it will move on to the next MY automatically. Unless there are changes that affect the product negatively, then you will have to agree to their new...

My 22 MSP had all the rattles before it was bought back - 40mph steering column, front suspension passenger side, passenger seat back, rear seats headrests, rear seat latches… there’s also the whistling noise above 70mph and a broken window regulator that lowers/raises the rear passenger side...

What’s your next car? Any replacement in mind?

MSP on 19s. Per teslafi, It did 300 Wh/mi @ avg 74 mph and 325 Wh/mi @ avg 82 mph. So roughly 270-300 mi on a 90% charge for me in California.

noise came back a month later or so, but it was probably the old design.

unfortunately this is very common when I brought my MSP in for a frunk repair they dented the hood smeared my carpets and white seats with dirty hands and missed a bolt that freaking bolt nut was left in my door pocket and it wasn’t even that small

I’m finalizing the repurchase of my MSP. Not sure if I want to try my luck for a second time…

New BMW: Interiors born aged, exteriors screaming mid-life crisis.

Tesla agreed to repurchase my MSP. Should I get something else or another MSP, 90k is a really reasonable price.

I initially asked for adjustments to the rear bumper because there was a 1 cm gap on the left side near the trunk when I first received the vehicle. Although they rectified this issue at the time, a year later the clips on the rear bumper are coming loose. In addition to that, there are multiple...

Could be a reject from previous delivery attempt.

Please don’t take it. It was likely a reject by someone else, it took the SC a while to get it fixed. Save yourself some time from lemoning it 3 months down the road.

I’m in the same boat. I requested a SC visit for noise and rattle. Here’s the quote of $637 I had to approve. Surely I won’t be approving it until I have spoken to the SC manager. Sure, the chat agent promises not to charge if it’s not impact related. At this point I have no problem lemon the...

While I appreciate your perspective on the i4 and m3, I must admit that my experience with the m3p is rather limited, and I have not had the opportunity to drive an i4. However, I did try the EQS in February 2022, and my experience with the EQS left me with a sense of bewilderment. The excessive...

Most luxury cars often feel like they are "trying too hard" and usually come across as tacky. It's like comparing a croc skin Vertu to an iPhone.

Great post, I feel the same about sportiness about S and 3. But my experience was a bit in the reverse, I have a 2022 S P and once got a 3 P as a loaner for about a week. As the driver, I quite liked the 3 if I could ignore the interior for a bit, while my wife wanted to throw up in the...
