This is exciting for those who already have a delivery date. I was curious whether we can call someone to change if the delivery date does not work for us? I would suspect it's a less flexible vs. at a Tesla delivery center since car shipment may be based on city and route that the truck takes...

Just got my text, 3/21 - 3/29. Day 1 reservation, already have a M3, SR+, SoCal.

Is this an email or you had to check your Tesla account?

Does anyone know whether the standard range option have heated seats? It says cloth but I have a feeling it has to be upgraded to Partial Premium Interior to get heated seats. I am OK with cloth but really would like heated. Can someone confirm?

Slightly different question, I already have the front and rear mats. I am waiting to find out when the 3D cargo mats would be available. Does anyone have information on this?

I am curious whether anyone has done this? The car will be under two family members. However, due to the primary person not meeting the income limit for the CA tax rebate, I am wondering whether the federal tax credit filing can be under one name and the state rebate be under the name of the...

I recently updated to 2018.21.9. I have noticed that when displaying the traffic overlay onto the map/navigation, it quite often shows green and not much traffic. I am in SoCal. It is actually misleading because only when I pinch and zoom in then all of a sudden most of the freeway traffic...

I see the settings now on the security and the notification on the app. I was trying to test it but not sure how I can get the alarm to go off. If someone is sitting in the car and has the card key, then the car won't lock. If no one is there, it will lock and I assume it will arm itself. I...

I know that there's GPS and all but if the car was broken into or vandalized the car, most basic security car alarm would sound. I can't seem to see where there is this feature in the M3. If not, I am really surprised as it would be nice to have it sound an alarm but also with the phone app, it...

I am not sure what the exact material that is used on the M3 seats, and for that matter the various door panels as well. But what I have noticed is that any little oily finger or mark will leave a very obvious shiny stain on the seats. It doesn't help that the seats are black and more of a...

Looks nice! As you mention sometimes an overcast day makes it look darker than in normal instances. Do you have a picture ona sunny say showing the light transmission through the car windows? Thanks

I think once it senses weight, the seatbelt may have to be buckled before being able to shift and drive. So until then the car is “off”. I remember not being able to shift until I buckled in my seatbelt. You may want to try the sequence that GregRF noted as that’s what I do and don’t have a problem.

I know that there's been several threads about tinting, including different brands, shade, etc... For this thread, I was wondering if anyone has done their tint and would be willing to post a couple of pictures that would illustrate what it looks like from a side or 3/4 view. I am undecided as...

I was at a highly rated (by Yelpers) tint shop in socal Orange County. They said that they have not been able to obtain in writing from Tesla the exact factory tint specs. Also, most factory tint does not have UV protection, mainly just privacy and some heat rejection. I was originally not...

It seems using the USB stick to play music from is a bit of an issue in a couple of ways. I normally use bluetooth but also like the fact that I can use the USB and have the ability to see all of the songs from the USB shown on the screen. Otherwise, using bluetooth I would have to pick up my...

I am going to be picking up my M3 this weekend. I had read that I should have the Tesla app installed on my iPhone so I can test it out when I pick up the vehicle. I have installed the app but don't know what username and password should be used. I've tried using the same logon information as...

Hi, I will be getting my first electrical vehicle soon, M3. I always like to plan ahead and am considering how and where I would like the 14-50 outlet(s) in my 2-car garage. There is possibility that I will buy another electric or plug in electric hybrid car (likely BMW) in 2 to 3 years from...

Got my email shortly before 1 pm PT to configure and place my order. Estmated 3-6 weeks for delivery. I am non-owner southern California line waiter at Costa Mesa center, probably around lunch time on 3/31. Can’t believe it’s happening. I have a second reservation that I am still holding off...

When mentioning a new institution in this thread, it would be helpful if we all put the full name of the bank or credit union. Using abbreviations sometimes makes it hard to figure out which institution it is.

It looks real nice, thanks for the video. A couple of questions I have: 1. The rear windshield - is the tint only up to a certain point? It seems that the actual rear windshield is factory and you didn't tint it. So when you say the rear glass, it's only the portion that is over the rear...

I spoke to my AAA orange county office and something seems wrong for me. If I add the M3 to my existing two vehicles, just for the M3 it would be annual premium of $2500 alone. Most of this amount $2200 is for comprehensive and collision deductible of $250/$1000. I am wondering why this is so...

Although I don’t have my M3 yet but I was thinking to buy a wireless charging pad that would either charge one phone or possibly find one that charges two phones simultaneously. This way no need to worry about making it fit to the connector just right. I have iPhone X but I think a lot of other...

Can you clarify the $80/yr increase amount? Was it a typo and you meant $800 per year for the M3 with full coverage?

Just wondering once an iPhone is synced with a M3 (or I suppose MS or MX) through bluetooth or maybe even direct connect with USB, what features would be show up on the touchscreen? Would I see a caller’s name, phone number, or picture? How about music would I control my music playlist on my...

I may have missed this but I know that currently there is only black interior and at some point will have white. What are the chances that Tesla will make cream/beige color, similar to MS, available? Or even gray, which would be my preference?

It seems this thread is now being hijacked by other topic rather than what the original intent was, which is about configuration of the M3. I think those that want to talk about something else should start a different thread so that we keep this one focused.

I am still a bit confused. I understand that if there were no constraints I should buy a few HPWC. But the real question I would like to find out is what the cost vs. benefits of getting 2 HPWC as compared to one HPWC and a 14-50 outlet. The way I see it there's a cost of $500 for an additional...

I am getting ready to get my first Tesla in early 2018, based on Tesla website. I am new to this and before calling electricians for estimates, I wanted to be informed so that I can ask the right questions and not have a fast one pulled over me. My situation is as follows: Planning to have 2...

Sorry, I pasted an image of the rates table but it didn't come through. Will try again, hopefully it works. 2 yrs. .74% 3 yrs. 1.74% 4 yrs. 1.74% 5 yrs. 1.99% 6 yrs. 2.24%

Saw some pretty good rates for a credit union in so. Cal, Unify FCU. The rates are lower than I've seen most places. I don't know the exact requirements to join. However, even going from 3 or 4 years to a 5 year is only .25% more, which is pretty minimal for one additional year. But as others...

So it would seem that there has to be enough federal tax liabilty to cover $15k for two cars. If both cars are registered under the wife's name and my name jointly, then I would assume that either can claim one or both? Would it be best to put both names on both cars or only one on each? I live...

I was curious if anyone knows for sure or have experienced buying two Tesla's (I supposed it could be any two EV's) in the same year. And would you be able to get two $7500 credit towards your taxes (for a total of $15000)? Or is there a limit of one credit per taxpayer per year? Thanks.

I have reserved for two, with the intent of buying both. The odds now are not as high that I buy both. I have read this post but really am at a loss on what I would do should I only need 1 car. I suppose getting a refund is an option at some point. Although it would be effort wasted for waiting...

I am able to view the source code in various browser like IE, Firefox or Chrome. But doing a swarch does not show any reservation ID. Am I missing something?
