    Any details on seat material in the Standard Range Plus package?

    I would prefer the cloth seats but only if they are equally comfortable and functional, probably too much to ask.

    The Dreaded Exchange Rate (CAD/USD)

    I am concerned about the exchange rate and I honestly made the reservation anticipating that it would improve by the end of the 2-3 year wait. I also firmly believe that President Trump will be a good thing for Canadian dollar/economy. Therefore I am hopeful for my Model 3 future! Trump took...

    Surprised at dual motors cost for Model S

    Anything more than $2999 for dual motors in the Model 3 is too expensive for a non luxury car, especially here in Canada where we are cheap :rolleyes:

    Nova Scotia Super Chargers on Model 3 Unveil Screen

    I'm a Model 3 booker in Halifax and I've been dying to find out if they will announce superchargers in Nova Scotia or at least in the Maritimes. I was watching the Model 3 unveil again (the news updates are a little few and far between nowadays) and when Elon was talking about doubling the...

    NEMA 14-50 outdoors

    Hi Aaron, I know that you posted this a while ago. Is that your primary charging set-up? Is that the Tesla 240V mobile cord? Thanks

    Aerodynamics Won't Help Range Loss in Cold Weather

    I forgot to include the factors that will actually make this worse, such as driving in high wind, snow accumulation on the ground, needing to use the heater, or lots of stop-go city driving where the aerodynamics won't help. There is just purely less energy available to be used to drive the motor.

    Aerodynamics Won't Help Range Loss in Cold Weather

    Tesla has said that the base Model 3 will have a battery pack of less than 60 kwh, which is fairly low, but a range of 215 miles since it will have very low drag, lower weight etc. We also know that the cold affects the battery power output, effectively lowering it's capacity. One of my concerns...

    Would you let your M3 make money for you?

    I would bring it to a car show or let people look inside or get rides for charity maybe. I guess that isn't making money :D

    Post Warranty Ownership, Repair Parts, Parts Costs, DIY?

    Thanks for your message and enthusiasm! I am excited to own this car and help push the envelope for electric cars. I am hoping that there will eventually be an Eastern Canada service center and at least superchargers by the time the car arrives.

    Post Warranty Ownership, Repair Parts, Parts Costs, DIY?

    Well I probably won't be getting the car right away. I ordered after the 300,000 mark, I live in the north east and I probably won't be getting a high spec model. I'm guessing 2019 at the earliest. Hopefully most major production issues will be worked out by then.

    Post Warranty Ownership, Repair Parts, Parts Costs, DIY?

    I live in Nova Scotia Canada, which is over 1200km from the nearest Tesla store/service center. I pre-ordered the Model 3 and I figure that I will be doing DIY repairs out of the gate since I am so far from a service center. I am basically gambling that nothing major goes wrong with the car in...

    Is anyone getting a base model?

    I live in Canada, in a Province with no rebate so I also have to keep the costs down. I can’t believe the number of people saying they are going to max it out! Assuming that the upgrades are similar to the Model S and Auto Pilot can be added after the fact, I will get one upgrade… Supercharging...

    Tesla (Model 3) in the Maritimes

    Well that's great! where will you be living in NS?

    Tesla (Model 3) in the Maritimes

    Yes $40,000 would be great. How optioned out will yours be? I am thinking: supercharging + winter package. To keep the cost down I will probably have to pass on the AWD or bigger battery. I'm not as tempted by performance models, premium sound or air suspension.

    Tesla (Model 3) in the Maritimes

    Sounds good. I am also happy to have a bit of time to save also and I need to milk my Mazda 3 for all it's worth since I've it paid off. Also hoping for the Canadian dollar to rebound a little.

    Tesla (Model 3) in the Maritimes

    Yeah I was wondering the same thing, I imagine there must be a few more. I would join a group for sure. I figure that my order is around 310,000-320,000 so I'll be waiting a while longer than you. Although they said that it will be starting in the west and moving east, and we are about as far...

    Tesla (Model 3) in the Maritimes

    Ok never mind I see that you provided a link to the tracker, so clearly you have already done so! Congrats on ordering everyone here, we are breaking the ground for more to come later.

    Tesla (Model 3) in the Maritimes

    I live in in Halifax (Middle Sackville), and I reserved a Model 3 on April 6th. I'm not worried about a service center being built in NS and I doubt it will happen soon as there is no government electric car rebate. I'm betting on a supercharger in Truro and hopefully a couple in NB so we can...
