Hey everyone, I'm moving to San Diego so will no longer need my OEM Aero wheels. I currently have Goodyear Ultragrip ICE snow tires on them. (235/45/R18). See pics for tread/wear. Only used them for two seasons. No scratches on wheels, also includes Aero covers (never used). Does NOT...

Honestly, I've not had that many issues with the wipers in the rain, and specifically with the auto function. But, this week I had to deal with a snowstorm that had me swearing up and down at the wiper design. Three times on a two-hour snowy commute home I had to get out and clear ice from the...

Anyone know the approximate wait for an AWD M3 for a current M3 owner?

It wouldn’t be so bad if it was just bug fixes. But it’s also new features like WiFi, Summon, camping mode (!), etc. So to me it's like having the latest smartphone but only being able to run software from two years ago. The potential is there but you frustratingly don't have access to it.

This. No issues for me here in NE. I guess the biggest gap is the lack of waypoints for me.

Same here!

Looking for a recommendation on a good aftermarket shop (i.e. ceramic, chrome delete, etc). I'm in Merrimack, NH. Willing to drive a few hours (of course!). :D

Uh, I'm in trouble then. :cool:

It has one.

Hello folks, Looking for some trusted recommendations for aftermarket work, i.e. chrome delete, ceramic, calipers, springs. I'm in Merrimack, NH, so anywhere from northern Mass up to Manchester would work. Any help would be much appreciated! John

I know right? That sucks! I also hate when I take my wife's ICE to the local Mobil station and all the stalls are full, even when the car reports that they're empty. Oh, wait... :D I'd be much more worried if it was inaccurately reporting empty slots instead of full ones. John

Can't wait to get mine in red! :D

Did you paint those calipers yourself?

Have had my M3 "Watts" for exactly a week, and am loving it! I'm in Merrimack, NH if any non-owner or reservation holder wants to see one.

There's a Tesla kit for sale that includes both a compressor and sealant for $80.

Just had my electrician install my HPWC last Friday. Had to come up from the basement and into my garage, about 30' of conduit. Wall mounted the HPWC and got all the permits. $950 (I'm in NH).

Version? I've not seen that on 2018.21.9.

Now that I would try if it works!

I just did this! I have to do some touch up on the pass, and the paint isn't an exact match to the "gunmetal" gray of the back on the screen, but I think it's better than white and up near the mirror. John

Picked up my car today, and this is the version it had.

Fabulous. They’ve cut delivery times for new orders but extended delivery of existing folks who have configured out until July. :mad:

So here's my dilemma...configured on 5/6, but no VIN yet. But I really want DM...so I'm torn on how long it would take to change my configuration and for me to get my car. Depending on how many people deferred for DM in front of me, I might not get my car to August. Decision, decisions! :eek:

Love the white! Can't wait to get mine!

What I REALLY want is TACC for those stop-n-go traffic jams during my commute. I wish I could pay something like a grand just to get that...

Given the current focus on EAP and media attention on crash fatalities (warranted or otherwise), I'd like to see them double down rather that lose their top executive covering that area.

Not sure if this is good or bad, but the timing is certainly suspect... Tesla Autopilot chief departs, may be headed to Intel

This is what I'm kinda worried about. I've lived in NE for almost my entire life and know how to drive in the snow with RWD...with AND without snow tires. But I am curious as to the impact regen braking will have on the experience.

I only suggested adding the coolant question to the delivery checklist because of this thread: "I asked why it was low on coolant and basically they said they fill them up in CA before being shipped, it's warmer there so when it got here, the coolant may have contracted just a tad. I'm hoping...

Aaahhhh!!!! Bricked! There's that word again! :eek: Seriously, welcome to the forum and thanks for posting. As others have mentioned, it sounds like they have taken care of you (Model S loaner) and will look at the car soon.

And then there's our (in the US) preference for small SUVs, which is why I think the MY will be even more impactful than the M3.

VP of IT Infrastructure, working in the Biotech and technology industries. Ask this question a decade (or two) ago and you'd get very different results. True, you don't need to be good at math or technology to own/drive one, but it sure helps. How many ICE drivers know the ins/outs of a...

The video is worth watching if only to hear him chuckle at the start of the 0-60 test. :D

Yep, my bad guys. Sorry about that. Didn't realize there were two different bumpers in play here...:(

Holy moly! Almost $8K for what first appeared to be some decent scratches? :eek:

Congrats! Same here with the wait. I'd prefer a LRAWD, so I might wait to see if anything materializes in June/July based upon recent news/events. But that's great! Wait in line to...wait! :confused:

Stock springs? Gap's pretty huge...

I emailed them about local installers in New England. They replied: "We will ship you the upholstered skins in a box and refer you to a local upholstery shop that can install it for you usually within one day. You can also take it to any upholstery shop you want if you prefer."

Looks awesome! As I live in NE and will have snow tires, I'll probably go with EVT or TSportline gray turbines on my main set and keep the aeros (uncovered!) for my snow tires.

Look at TSportline. I know it's extra, but who knows if the official white interior will ever come.

Got my invite on 4/6 as well, will probably wait to configure until after my condo closes on 4/30, but I am also considering a short wait to see where AWD falls... Who am I kidding. As soon as the ink is dry on my condo paperwork I'll be configuring. :D

Let me know how it goes...I'm strongly considering their red diamond-stitch interior (white exterior).

I am considering waiting a bit for AWD, but then again we all know how TSLA are with stated timelines... :eek: My configurator says Mid-2018, and Elon has said July, right? I've waited for two years already, what's another two months? Well, if there are lots of people ahead of me deferring...

Paid shill! Paid shill! :D

First of all...you're a test pilot...did you serve? If so, thank you for your service! (A veteran myself). :) Second, considering if what you said was true (they reference some sort of compensation), you travel a lot, and have referred other customers, how about some Tesla luggage?

It's interesting that some folks see Musk's sleeping on the factory floor as "...making everyone nervous to have the CEO on the front lines...". Personally, I agree with his assertion that it shows he is committed to his employees and leading by example.

Dimensions? Pics of inside?

Uh, do you remember the original iPhone? No MMS, no apps, no cut/paste, etc. And they've had their share of problems on the journey to world domination: antenna and battery issues, new iOS versions bricking phones (oh no, there's that term again! :eek:). Sure it was revolutionary at the...

Okay, perhaps since I've driven white cars since the dawn of time, I'm accustomed to the look. Then again I wash my cars every week, so I never let it get that dirty. But I'll admit, living in NE, the winters are tough on black/white cars.

If forced to make a choice between silver and midnight silver, I'd go with the latter. But only if paired with a white interior. Personally, I'm going white. What made you eliminate that from contention?
