"not considered used" Check a recent thread about a "new demo" performance model 3 being sold, and what happened when the prospective buyer ran a Carfax Model 3 performance dealer discount

Today I learned that when you buy a "new" Tesla directly from Tesla, you need to run a Carfax to have a little more comfort that the manufacturer is not defrauding you by selling you a used car as "new". I'm sure there ate federal trade and consumer laws being violated, but more importantly it...

SR+ now $2500 upgrade over base

Agreed. The extra range only comes in play if you're taking a long distance road trip, or you have an ungodly distance commute in an area that gets crazy cold. On the regular day to day basis, you will rarely need to charge. The difference between 240 miles and 325 miles is not a factor as...

Based on the limited picture, you can see the sides of the seat base are leatherette. Same appears for the side bolsters, and possibly the shoulder up to the headrest too.

My analysis of the SR vs SR+ Top speed 10mph increase - could care less 0-60 0.3 seconds faster - I drive on the 405 in LA. could care less. 5.6s 0-60 good enough for me 20 mile extra range - intriguing, but honestly since I charge at home, this will do me nothing. 20 miles isnt long enough...

We have one picture to go by for the base SR interior textile seats and door cards: SR Model 3 owners getting more than they ever could have hoped for Looking at the seats, it looks like it will be a combo of the leatherette on the bolsters and outer thigh support, with the multi pattern...

So I'm debating putting in an order for an SR base, and had a question about the $2,500 non refundable deposit. How does this jive with the 7 day full refund policy? My main concern is that if the SR base is not delivered before June 30th, and I lose out on half the tax credit, I simply would...

So if I have a white or green sticker, its still free? But red it's not? I cant find any language showing that they've implemented tolls on EVs, all news articles mentioned late 2018. Anyone have any updates? Still a bunch of red stickered folks riding the 110 express lanes?

Update posted - they will mail us the applications. Clean Air Vehicle Decals - High Occupancy Vehicle Lane Usage Note: White CAV decals are valid only until January 1, 2019. New white CAV decals are no longer issued. Vehicle owners issued white decals on or after January 1, 2017, who are...

It makes me wonder if this would work: Apply for new stickers now, saying current stickers are lost. Would you be re-issued white stickers? Or would they check the original sticker issue date, confirm that it is post 1/1/17, and reissue red stickers? Here's the concern - if current...

Anyone have guesses as to when they will roll out the information on how to apply for a new sticker for those vehicles who previously received a sticker between 1/1/17 and 12/31/18? The ARB website currently states the following: Owners of vehicles issued a Red, Green or White HOV decal from...

I've been watching this bill for some time now in anticipation of Governor Brown signing it. My guess as to how they'll implement it: 1. For stickers issued with an expiration date of 1/1/2022 - this will apply to all cars that were initially issued a green/white sticker between 1/1/17 and...

It actually has about the same passenger volume as the Model S 2017 Chevrolet Bolt EV vs. 2016 Tesla Model S 60 Comparison

FYI - Chevy's recommended maintenance schedule is pretty awesome for the first 150k miles Chevrolet Bolt Requires Almost No Maintenance For First 150,000 Miles Basically a couple of brake fluid flushes (diy a few bucks assuming they don't have a fancy computer that requires dealers to...

A couple more additional thoughts on how to "maximize" the tax credit: For those who have sub $7,500 tax liability, or if your household is purchasing two and have sub $15,000 tax liability, another thing to consider is the sale of investments which would trigger capital gains taxes owed. Then...

FYI - you can get a bottle of Iron-X for $20 and it should help remove the orange spots in the paint in a safe manner. Amazon.com: Carpro Iron X Iron Remover 500 ml with Sprayer: Automotive For white cars, Iron-X is a must. Anything Iron-X can't remove, a quick claybar will get it done...

Never believe the internet. On car forums - Everyone is "for sure" going to buy it, as long as X, Y and Z are included. Manufacturer creates a vehicle with X, Y and Z, forum posts lament lack of ~. Or, too expensive, I'm going to buy a used 1999 model for $3k. On Craigslist - Everyone is...

When I first read this thread when it was posted, I was in absolute shock that there weren't more comments. The idea seemed so far fetched, yet the more I thought about it the more I felt this would happen. And it did. You correctly predicted what Elon would do, albeit in the form of the...
