    The 7-seater option is now available for order on Model Y

    Looks like the 7 seat variant isn’t available with performance, anyone else disappointed by this? I’m a single dad who wants to be able to move his kids and friends around in one car, but when I’m on my own, I wanna punch it and go as fast as possible... anyone heard of whether or not this will...

    Milton, On to Cape Breton, NS, Roadtrip!

    Hahah, a fair statement. I know, I drive a Tesla, but Im also divorced with a couple of young kids, so keeping expenses down is key, and also, it might sound like torture, but many a fond family memory is created on the back of a long ass road trip, so thats what Im hoping for here! :)

    Milton, On to Cape Breton, NS, Roadtrip!

    Yeah sleeping in the car! My kids are relatively young and in a dry run, it worked well.... not quite as spacious as when they jump into a queen with me, but it'll do for a couple of nights. We are actually using these thin inflatable air mattresses from Sail as we have so much other camping...

    Wiki Canadian Trip Planning

    Curious how this goes! I am going from Toronto to Cape Breton as I couldn't muster the strength to go further and take the ferry, I am saving that one for a future year! :)

    Milton, On to Cape Breton, NS, Roadtrip!

    Hi All, I am planning my first real road trip with my two young kids for just before Canada Day, with a reservation at Cape Breton National Highlands Park for July 1. I plan on splitting the drive up over the course of 3 days/2 nights and with this high level plan, had a few questions I was...

    Are Canadians still getting Model 3s right now?

    I believe so as I see more and more on a daily basis!! Love it every time I cross another Model 3's path! ;)

    Elon says AWD and Perf orders start at end of next week!

    I agree with you 10000000%, I think orders in the US will take precedence again quickly and dont think Canada will see AWD until late fall, early winter.

    Canada VIN thread and Delivery Thread

    I don't know, I get that its irritating but at the same point in time if its something we can do ourselves and allows them to focus on other work to get cars delivered, Im all for it :)

    ToughPro floor mats for Model 3

    Heres hoping its soon as Id prefer to get the top quality ones off the jump, as opposed to having to purchase some interim solution out of paranoia for the floors getting messed up! ;)

    VIN Assignment

    Thank you and yes, I have added the details to the spreadsheet! As to why Silver is so unpopular I cant quite say - though I will note it was my second choice after Multi Coat Red :)

    VIN Assignment

    Up right outside of Toronto, configured on March 27th, Multi Coat Red with Sport and no VIN yet... no VINs have been assigned to Canadian configs yet as I understand it... waiting as patiently as I can :)

    Model 3 Canada - Confirmed Orders Only thread

    TrevP posted on the Model 3 Owners Club Forums that he has heard Canadian deliveries will start in the next couple of days... and odd that VINs haven't yet been assigned... really hoping for pre June 8!! Please!

    A REAL wireless charging pad for the Model 3

    Anyone preorder and have any updates? I haven't heard any updates for a week or so, with production slated to start this month. Anyone receive any recent updates about delivery? I do see the website was updated and the product itself has been updated, and the Tesla logo removed.

    Thanks to all of the replies on this thread, I am now convinced that I have to bring my two kids with me for the delivery.

    Two totally ignorant questions...

    Hi everyone, a couple of totally random and unrelated questions, for which I am hoping someone can educate this poor sap: 1. Given certain conditions, I ordered the currently available Model 3 a couple of days back, but I had always wanted the dual motor variant. So, with what we know from...

    Canada is being flooded with invites

    After an hour of serious questioning and whether or not I could reasonably wait for AWD, the expected retraction of the super generous 14k rebate is expected in June, and with a projected 4-8 week delivery window, I just couldn't risk losing the rebate... so I ordered! Multi coat red with sport...

    For what its worth the delivery estimator on this site says I will get my invite in april, with delivery in june. I ordered online before the reveal

    White Interior

    I fully and completely rescind this initial post, except for the white dash piece. Was at the Yorkdale store today to quickly spy the Model 3, and saw the Model X with the white interior and white door panel pieces; it looked exceptional in person. Will almost assuredly be going with the...

    Model 3 is Arriving in Toronto (March 2) at Yorkdale Center

    Got this email today too and I’m totally stoked. To me it gives me a slight confirmation that the Canadian, and GTA area first, are going to be seeing deliveries in a few months, of things go to plan. So stoked!

    What aftermarket accessories are you ordering?

    Is there any reason to wait until the purchase of the actual car, to purchase the wall connector and have it installed? Thanks! :)

    What aftermarket accessories are you ordering?

    The Qi Phone Charging pad is a must, but honestly, I don't know that Ive ever wanted to actively seek out some of these items as much as I do now, for my forthcoming model 3. Cant wait.

    A joke, or just plain incompetence?

    Respectfully here, but you're more than welcome to try to start your own EV company and bring such a quality car to scale, quicker. I get it, its frustrating, I am a day 1 reservationist, but come on... no one has done something of this complexity, to scale.

    White Interior

    I have been jonzing for the white interior since I heard it might be an option, and I feel like I had finally settled on my colour choices, but then I saw some of the pics from Model 3's in the wild, with the white interior... and the door panels have a white cutout, and the current faux wood...

    Petition to add tow hitch to Model 3

    I never thought in my life I would consider getting a tow hitch for a trailer, but I fully expect that there will be instances where I have to tow a small trailer for a trip... so yeah, Im with you... would love one! In Elon's tweet storm from yesterday he stated the hitch wouldn't be standard...

    When is your Dual Motor All-Wheel Drive due for delivery, mine is in late 2018?

    Im in Toronto, reserved online a couple of hours before the first reveal on March 31, 2016, and ALL options for me are saying late 2018. I had really hoped that I would get the car around this time next year, and I can tolerate late 2018, but man, I really hope it doesn't slip much farther!

    Sorry for the ignorance here everyone, but can someone show me what the standard 18" wheels look like with the rims? What rims are standard with the 18" wheels? Thank you!

    Final Model 3 reveal may not happen before production begins in July 2017, per Elon

    I suppose as this depends on what your definition is for "in line." I based the 105,000th piece off the fact that I ordered before the reveal, and at the end of the reveal, Elon stated that there had been 115,000 reservations to that point. So I might be a little off but from a strictly date...

    Wiki Model 3 delivery estimator

    Apologies as I should have said I pulled the numbers out of thin air, and didn't really put any thought or reason into them, but the points about number of employees and California saturation are very fair. With only 35k employees or so there is a natural limit there, but with California having...

    Wiki Model 3 delivery estimator

    Posted in a couple other threads as I searched for the appropriate place to post it: The one thing about the reservation system which I think they have to be transparent on, is where are the proverbial lines in the sand being drawn?

    Final Model 3 reveal may not happen before production begins in July 2017, per Elon

    Im not bothered by the July-ish timeframe of the 3rd reveal, its almost been 11 months since I preordered and while some days made it seem as though the wait was going to be eternal, it has passed relatively quickly, and the final few months until July will likely be the same. It breaks up the...

    What kind of options/upgrades are you considering and why?

    I am a Model 3 reservation holder and was not aware of this, so then the premium package,is that just the upgrade to leather or vegan leather? I got my sights on those white leather seats!

    The Dreaded Exchange Rate (CAD/USD)

    As long as we take delivery in the first 3 quarters of 2018, we should be save. Given that the election occurs in October 2018, I would maybe even expect that we will likely have until early 2019, before any incoming party removes the rebates... given that there are probably a few other...

    The Dreaded Exchange Rate (CAD/USD)

    Hey dchuck, no for sure, I am aware and thankful for the 14k rebate (and there is talk of the HST being waived as of 2018), and while I will be happy *settling* for a base Model 3, I really wanted to add some options, the bigger battery and dual motor to help hedge against range loss in our...

    The Dreaded Exchange Rate (CAD/USD)

    I don't disagree at all about the fairness factor, I understand why they're doing it and how they do it... I don't know if the difference is that GM had plants in Canada, and is a little more established (here) so that they hedge against the currencies more to ease them during fluctuations such...

    The Dreaded Exchange Rate (CAD/USD)

    Thanks Jeff! I hadn't even considered the impacts of Trump, NAFTA, etc, now I'm even more worried! I don't have the cash at the moment, so can't just buy the USD outright now, but do have the ability to borrow the funds... just not sure what the best approach is right now! Appreciate the...

    The Dreaded Exchange Rate (CAD/USD)

    I am becoming increasingly concerned about the state of the CAD/USD exchange rate, and the impact on the price of the Model 3. If market projections are correct, the 35k USD may be 46-49K CAD, by the end of the year. I believe that GM doesn't use a straight exchange rate when it comes to the...

    Final price on Model 3? ...not concerned

    I don't know that I think it doesn't matter, a few thousand maybe would be acceptable for most folks, but at the same time... $35k to begin with is a lot of coin for a lot of people. Ultimately I wonder if the $35k becomes $40k, whether the total average sales price would increase, or just stay...

    3rd Reveal

    At the end of the Q and A today for the Telsa SolarCity merger voting and such, someone asked (very softly, off camera) when the next Model 3 reveal would be, and Elon stated in "early Spring," in "3 of 4 months." So this puts us around February - March. Thoughts?

    Elon about Model 3: "free long distance" Supercharging "not free local"

    I would presume in this case the software would recognize that you're making your way from some long distance (with repeated and consistent SC stops along the way) and making your way back to your "home." Thus you wouldn't be charged as you were on a long distance trip and couldn't make it all...

    How many are going to pass on the Enhanced Autopilot and Full Service Driving
