Today I removed the aero covers. Took the wheels off and was able to get them out without breaking anything. There were a fair amount of scratches on the wheels. I took a Dremel with a felt wheel and some Scratch X to them. That worked really well. At 575 miles, the amount of brake dust was...

I'm not sure that the charging time is representative. Even though I had the Supercharger in the navigation, it waited very late to start preconditioning. The battery might not have been at the optimum temp.

On the range test, I did that today, because I wanted a base line on the battery as new. I chose the 72MPH setting as a compromise between efficiency and boredom. If I were road tripping it's very unlikely I would drive that slow. So I see it as a best case scenario for the conditions. I tend to...

Real World Range / Charging Test. Methodology: level 2 charge until battery stops drawing current at 100% SOC. Start testing immediately. This is a highway range test. Conditions: 69 degrees, 47% humidity, N wind 10 mph, gusts to 17 mph. Route Is mostly E / W with the turn around at 50% SOC...

4/23 order, first hour. UR/BLK, changed to W/BLK. VIN 6/14, delivered in downtown Chicago 6/22. Complete blast furnace weather down there. Build quality is good, 2 issues, hood needs some adjustment and for some reason I can't make phone calls. BT paired fine, phone works as key. I've removed...

Still no VIN, but I did find something interesting in the 2024.14.8 update on my 2022 M3LR. The wheel configuration now includes the 18" Photon and 19" Warp wheels. If someone who has actually taken delivery of a 2024 M3P could look into the wheel configuration tab of the service section, I am...

No longer UR/B, changed my order to W/B today. It didn't change my EDD, still 6/3 - 6/17 FWIW. The app let me change it using the 4/23 pricing. Might have to change my handle to dojoalbino. If anyone here has taken delivery in downtown Chicago, I'd like to hear about that experience.

I was looking for something to take the edge off the VIN OCD. I started digging into the 2024 M3 parts catalog and found a few tidbits. The 19 inch wheels are actually listed there. The front is 8.5x19 ET34. The rear is 10x19 ET45. The aero covers are different obviously, and their mountings are...

My 1972 Black 4 door Town Car with the 460 V8 rode really nice. MPG not so nice. You could sleep comfortably in the back seat. I think the car was something like 21 ft long.

The defect that got my attention isn't getting fixed with a buffer. We're talking sanding, painting & finishing. Everyone has a threshold for what is acceptable. I'm certainly not a hater, I own the car, and the stock. I believe in the mission, but as long as the customers accept bad QC, it's...

UR/B, ordered 4\23, no vin, EDD 6/3-6/17. I'm really not in a hurry to get it now. Seriously. I went to the Orland Park, Il gallery today, to look at a UR/W display model. Very disappointed with the QC on the paint. Orange peel, small fisheyes, and numerous artifacts in the paint. As I walked up...

Sooo........ Fremont fire? From what I can find on the net, apparently an oven in the paint shop. I hate to wish bad things for other people but hopefully it was on the MY line. Otherwise I'll put on the big boy pants and wait. Repeat after me, I'm not really in desperate need for a...

My EDD just got pushed till..........After The Apocalypse?

Thinking of changing my handle to KickAssDruid.

I was told by the SA that if I wanted to make any changes to my order, and I wanted to keep the tax credit, I could have SG and either Black or white. Think I'll keep the UR.

New guy here, RN12153xxxx, ordered UR/Black 4/23 first 45 minutes. No VIN. EDD 5/23-6/20. I was at the Tesla Gallery in Lisle IL this morning. They have a SG/W M3P there. It's unprepped, not on display yet. They were nice enough to bring it up for me to look at. SG certainly hides in the crowd...
