    Trade In M3 with FSD Beta for Model S FSD

    I am about to take delivery of Model S Plaid in January with FSD and considering trading in my M3 with FSD Beta (10.5). Does anyone have any idea if the Safety Score attaches to driver or car? In other words, when I trade in the M3, will I have to go through the Safety Score process all over...

    Safety Score: parameter dependence

    Not sure how driving along PCH is going to help my score since I have no choice but to take hard turns to stay on the road.

    I wonder how many people have cancel their reservation at this point?

    Placed a reservation for the Roadster when first announced (believing 2020 to be a real date, having dealt with TM since 2012 I should have known better) and plunked down $50000 deposit. Plaid was announced and I made a reservation and figured why do I need a Roadster, and in any case, if I...

    Who needs a roadster when you have model s plaid?

    I totally agree with you. I ordered Roadster in 2018 and plunked down $50000 deposit. Once Plaid was announced I ordered Plaid with just $1000 down. The trick now is trying to get my $50000 deposit back. For the last 3 weeks I have been getting the run around (there is no cancel icon). Now I...

    Supercharger charging at half the speed it was the previous day

    Your display looks a bit off. Why does battery SOC at top right corner show "82%" whereas your mileage SOC shows 194 miles which is closer to 65%? 72 kW is awfully low for a SOC of 65%. You may want to have someone look at it.

    Supercharger charging at half the speed it was the previous day

    The reason I bring up tier 1 is that the cutoff for tier 1 is 60 kw and the charging rate initial increase ended abruptly at 60 kw each time. Coincidence? I am going to charge at another SC in a few days. Be interesting if it repeats. Agree it makes no sense to throttle.

    Supercharger charging at half the speed it was the previous day

    Same thing happened to me today at Petaluma. I have a P3D+ that has free supercharging and today was the first time I used it. I was expecting 110 - 120 kW (SOC was about 30%) at least at the get go. I noticed the charging rate started as usual but then abruptly stopped at exactly 60 kW, went...

    Wind noise seems somewhat obtrusive

    Did any of you that spent $30 on 1/4in neoprene cord, renamed "Model 3 Windshield Wind Noise Reduction Kit", realize that the same "kit" can he had on Amazon for about $1? Seems all they did was buy neoprene cord, measure out a specific length, glue the ends together, put it in a plastic bag...

    Free Supercharging for Performance M3? It will be 3 weeks.

    Having just taken delivery of one of the first Performance Model 3s, my profile page still indicated pay per use for Supercharging. Called Tesla service and asked about Supercharging, his first response was pay per use, when I reminded him of the latest update, he was completely unaware, took...

    Refused M3 delivery Marina Del Rey

    I guess you missed the part about the Model 3 being my sixth Tesla since 2012, so lack of trust is not an issue.

    Pickup Tesla 3

    1. Do NOT pay before you take delivery. Try to find the car in the lot and give it a pre-delivery inspection, especially the paint, in good lighting conditions. Don't let them scare you away. I went with friends a couple of weeks ago and while they were in the store, I found the car in the...

    My experience so far after 2 Weeks for Owning a Model 3

    Just took delivery of one of the first PAWD (red/white fully loaded). The delivery was flawless, fast, and easy. Car was driven from Fremont factory (about 5 miles away) on time and in good order. All paperwork handled in about 10 minutes. While I was handling the paperwork, the owner of the...

    May AWD/Performance Orders -- VIN / Status Thread

    P3D white interior (no performance upgrade package) VIN updates

    Tesla seems to be batching VINs according to specific configurations. In particular, I noticed that PAWDs with 20in wheels have VINs in the 55xxx range whereas same exact configuration with 18in aeros are randomly distributed in the 6xxxx-7xxxx range ( I am taking delivery tomorrow of PAWD with...

    MXWing: "The idea that 1 out of 1000 deliveries where someone withholds a $60,000K check from Tesla thinking they have any kind of leverage I find amusing." Instead of being a sucker and sheepishly taking whatever is handed to you, try it sometime, leverage I mean, or didn't you think of it...

    Refused M3 delivery Marina Del Rey

    Somewhat similar experience at Rocklin Service Center. I made 2 reservations on 3.31.16 and friends of mine used one to order RWD, Blue/black (standard build, nothing fancy) and I used the other to order PAWD (home delivery Thursday 8.2, update to come). I have been a Tesla owner since 2012 and...

    Rejected Delivery...New ISA?

    Had to reject a delivery on Wednesday. I was able to pre-inspect the car prior to actual delivery (I mooched around the parking lot at Rocklin Service Center) and found a few defects (large paint chip, door gasket problem). Since I hadn't taken delivery, I had the option of getting a replacement...

    Home Delivery

    Since I live in Bay Area I was given (not offered) the opportunity for the car to be delivered to my home by an "expert". That being said, has anyone had the car delivered to an address other than home, such as office, or in my case my detailer (not too far from the Fremont factory)

    New June invites coming “in the next few days”

    the fact that the deposits (both reservation and order) becomes non-refundable makes it revenue for Q3 regardless if the car is delivered or not, if the order is canceled TM keeps the money on top of that from the person that eventually gets the car. Check the fine print, TM states the $2500 is...

    Don't expect an invite to configure until July 1, that way $2500 x number of configurations is counted in Q3. I also expect that Performance will be delivered in 3 - 4 weeks max in CA (sorry East coast although first to configure you will be last to deliver that is a fundamental law of the Tesla...

    Slow Supercharging & Incomplete Charging

    Please explain to me why you continually want to charge to 100%, that alone does more damage to your battery than anything else. Sounds like a self inflicted wound. I suggest you read your owner's manual and hire a better attorney.

    Copy of social security card requested for Alliant loan?

    Pick up P100D on Wednesday, used Alliant with no mention at all of SS card. They did ask security questions in order to assure my identity some of which went back to my childhood. It may be that your on-record history is not as robust as they like and they want secondary source.

    Looks like they are finally batching factory pickup orders, I confirmed August 29 (VIN 159XXX) and was pushed 4x to December-early Jan. Status changed (after 4 months) from "in production queue" to "in production" 12.5 (from My Tesla, no email for TM or DS).

    I only found out about the white seats in September when I got a call from TM (not my DS) telling me that if I wanted my car sooner, then I would have to forego the white seats. Luckily I declined (not knowing about about AP2.0), then I got caught up in the TM EOQ factory pickup vortex.

    For me it was not my choice (I got lucky the first push). This is my fifth Tesla, and this pre-delivery experience has been by far the worst.
