    Can no longer purchase AP?

    I never bought Autopilot when I purchased the car, though I was thinking about purchasing it in the near future. With autopilot becoming standard, the option to purchase it separately has disappeared entirely. Do you guys think this is intentional or they're just reworking the website to account...

    Model 3 Steering Wheel Squeaking

    We've had our model 3 for less and a month and, all complaints aside, it's hands down the best car we've ever owned. The only issue we've seen actually occur so far has been this sort of "squeaking/creaking" that seems to be coming out of the steering wheel when turning at low speeds. After the...

    Model 3 Reliability/Issues?

    Do you think this has to do with the fact that yours is an early 2017 model? I haven't heard/read of similar issues with cars delivered after August.

    Model 3 Reliability/Issues?

    I'm having some doubts with my upcoming delivery date after reading some of the forum posts/videos relating to the Model S and X and their overall reliability with the several repairs people have had to go through. Here are my primary issues - I want to keep the car for 5-10 years, will it...

    Model 3 Dilemma

    I appreciate all of the responses. For the sake of clarification, when I meant that my son and I would be sharing the Model 3, I meant that he would only be able to drive it if I was in the car. Sorry that was unclear. Aside from all else, I am very much looking forward to my model 3 delivery...

    Mid Range waiting room

    Delivery scheduled for this Saturday. I've been assigned a VIN and the location is claiming that the vehicle is on the ground at their center. The delivery was previously scheduled for this Thursday, but I chose to push it back because of convenience. Hoping for no delays and no issues with the...

    Tesla Model 3 comfort?

    For anyone that's 6'2 out there and owns a model 3, have you had any difficulty fitting into the car? Is leg space an issue? I've heard many mixed reviews coming from people that are 6 flat saying it's a bit cramped and 6'7 people saying that it's as much room as they could need. I'm really...

    Model 3 Dilemma

    Just wanted to let everyone know that we decided on purchasing the Model 3 and have already scheduled a delivery for this Thursday. Hopefully, everything will go as planned (no delays) and the car will live up to the hype! It was also one of the only mid-range models they had on the ground near...

    What safety features does the Model 3 come standard with?

    If I was to buy a Model 3 without the enhanced autopilot for 5k, what features come with it standard? For example, rearview camera, lane departure, blind spot, etc

    Model 3 Dilemma

    So here's my current situation: I currently have a 2011 Toyota Camry which works perfectly fine and has run into no issues during my ownership of it. On the other hand, I'm currently looking to buy my son a car for his birthday. We've currently found a 2015 Lexus ES 350 loaded with all the...

    Tesla Model 3 Cancelation

    Okay, so I ordered my Tesla model 3 about two weeks ago. I'm now thinking about canceling my order for undisclosed reasons but am wondering if the 2,500 deposit I put down is refundable? My order has yet to be matched with any car. The only thing that has happened is me submitting my order...

    Model 3 for college kid?

    I realize this is an old(ish) threat, but a lot of people have viewed this so I thought I'd ask this here: Yes, the decision still stands. I will not be sending my oldest child off to college with a Tesla mainly for convenience reasons. But that doesn't mean I'm going to cancel my order all...

    Model 3 for college kid?

    After all the amazing responses, and consulting with my son, I have decided to say no to the Tesla. This is mostly for convenience sake, nothing more. Although it does seem like a reasonable car. I've already had it reserved for quite some time now so who knows... I may just end up keeping it...

    Model 3 for college kid?

    Again, Thanks for the responses. I still have some time to make the final decision so I'll use it.

    Model 3 for college kid?

    I appreciate all the responses so far. They have been extremely helpful in contemplating whether or not I want to send him off to college with a Tesla. Note: I did mention that he is pitching in 15k of his own money, as well as the money he will be earning this year by working. If we are one of...

    Model 3 for college kid?

    Seems like there is, but there isn't much information given as to whether or not it's located in a garage. There's only two chargers installed anyways so I'm guessing it's going to be pretty difficult.

    Model 3 for college kid?

    It's not about that. It's about the convenience. I trust my son completely to assume no wrong doing will come out of this car. I just want an overall explanation, preferably from someone who owns a Tesla in college (which I'm guessing there are very few of), telling me what life with a Tesla is...

    Model 3 for college kid?

    I recently reserved the Tesla Model 3. My question here is, would it be reasonable to gift this car to my son as his first car? He has saved up 15k so far and his mother and I have agreed to pay for the rest. He's obviously very excited about the car seeing all the hype it's caused. I'm just...
