    Martian Wheels MW03

    Just got the 8.5" X 19" Martian wheels installed with the Continental ProContact RX 255/45-19 Tires. Much more rim protection now....

    3rd A/C failure

    We had to get our super manifold replaced because the AC was not working too. No issues since they replaced the super manifold. Out car was at the SC for a month.....

    How good is the air conditioning really?

    Agree. Our Model S and Model 3 worked great. Probably better than any other cars we had owned before. Tesla has awesome AC. Ours just has a problem that they are fixing and I'm sure it will be awesome when it's done. We are not at all worried about it. The SC has been fantastic with...

    How good is the air conditioning really?

    Tuesday evening they called and said they figured out it was definitely a software issue. My wife asked how long it would take to fix and they said they didn't know because the software has not been developed yet. They said we could actually pick up our car and drive it in the meantime, but my...

    19" Tire Choice

    Did you get your wheels and tires put on? I would like to see a picture of them because I was also planning on doing the Martian 8.5" wide 19" wheels....

    How good is the air conditioning really?

    We have our MY at the service center now for AC not blowing cold air. They say it's likely a firmware issue and they have escalated it to their top engineers. We are supposed to get an update today.....

    EAP to FSD - bite the bullet now or risk it?

    FSD will work pretty good someday, but it's got a long way to go and it's going to take a number of both hardware and software improvements. Figure it's like buying a Commodore 64 computer in 1982 and paying, in advance, for a modern day 4K 3D video game, that they say is in the works and...

    Martian Wheels MW03

    Could you please send me the discount code? Picking up a MY this weekend and need to swap out those heavy Uberturbines for something more efficient.

    Any delivery in Florida?

    So, this morning, I emailed them (in Las Vegas) and asked if it would be any quicker if I changed my order to include the PUP (instead of the Gemini Wheels) and they said that may help but there are no guarantees since they "Can't See" what vehicles are available. So he sent me an email to...

    Any delivery in Florida?

    Please ask Brian Nash where mine is, if he's still the delivery guy in Jax!

    Any delivery in Florida?

    I'm in Ponte Vedra and ordered in March 2019. MSM-Black Interior, Performance without PUP, No FSD. Was supposed to get a March delivery. Got the trade-in and financing all done about three weeks ago and still waiting for a VIN and delivery date.... Maybe it's a strange configuration to not...

    Tesla shutting down Fremont factory beginning March 23rd

    I’m in Florida, supposed to get a March delivery and still waiting on a VIN. I’ve had the trade in and financing done for over two weeks and still waiting for a VIN.... I figure if out MY has not been “born yet”, which seems likely the case, that it’s getting to be highly unlikely that it will...

    It's coming!

    I got a 2.99% rate from Chase, through Tesla, about two weeks ago. Had a 2.99 rate on out M3 and they came back with the same thing for the MY.

    Confirming Delivery Performance Model Y

    Been waiting for a Vin and delivery date for like a week and a half. Dude, Where’s My Car? MSM, Performance without PUP, No FSD. Gemini crappy wheels (the wife loves the curb so we can’t have nice things).

    $100 Order Fee Charged by Tesla Now on Top of Purchase Price

    With 500,000 Cybertruck orders @ $100 a pop, they figure they would be better off counting that as money in the bank. That's like 50 million bucks.

    Got a text from Tesla.

    I didn't have a trade-in option available when they first sent me the text to complete all the "tasks". So after scratching my head for a few days, hoping it would appear, I sent them a text back and told them I could not see anything for a trade-in. They sent me an email back the next day and...

    If I order today... when do you think I'll take delivery?

    Has anybody gotten an email offering a March delivery for a non-performance?

    Got a text from Tesla.

    Same here, as Post #10. I did not have an option to enter anything for a trade in.

    BMW F80 M3 v Model 3 Performance--From Someone that Owns Both

    If you don't like using the phone Ap. You could try the optional Model 3 Key Fob. I know they are often out of stock from the website, but if you can get one they work great.

    Model 3 Homelink not working

    I had a problem with my Homelink not working and it turned out it was because we had LED light bulbs in our Liftmaster garage door opener. The LED light bulbs interfere with the signal. Changes the bulbs to non-LED and everything worked fine.

    Reports of slower accelleration after latest update.

    That was a bad joke. Sorry.

    Reports of slower accelleration after latest update.

    Well to be fair, Elon Musk did say "At Tesla we don't make slow cars".......but remember he never said anything about not slowing them down AFTER they were made....

    Model 3 Performance - low budget!

    Where are the vented rotors? Maybe coming later in OTA update?

    Enjoy that Volt. You deserve it.

    Current Tesla owners low take rate on reservations

    I agree. After the hype dies down, the $7,500 tax credit is gone (price goes up by $7,500), the competitor's quality EV cars start coming out (and they will), the demand WILL go down. Furthermore, Tesla WILL need to start tightening up on the quality & QA, or people are going to go elsewhere...

    Please help! About to configure but I don't know if I should upgrade to the 19" wheels?

    We chose the sport wheels, but that was our personal preference for aesthetic reasons only. If you are unsure and go with the aero wheels, you can always buy similar aftermarket 19” wheels later for not a huge a price difference... at least it’s not something that you can’t change if you want...

    S/3 Comparo -- Driven Back-to-Back-to-Back

    Here's my back to back comparison....We traded in our 5-month-old 2017 MS 75D and picked up our new M3 yesterday (White, Sport Wheels, EAP). We got the 23rd M3 delivered in Jacksonville, Florida. Drove the MS from our house to the SC and then drove the M3 back home.... Then we drove the M3...

    Let's talk financing rates

    We had financed our 2017 MS through Chase Bank, arranged through TESLA, for 1.99% for 72 months. We are taking delivery of our M3 on Friday and financed through Chase Bank again, again arranged through Tesla for 3.14% for 72 Months. We have had a credit card with Chase Bank for a good while...

    VIN Assignment

    Just got a call from a Vegas phone # and let it go to VM because I thought it was a solicitor....it was my Delivery Specialist calling to introduce himself and let me know our car was out of production but still in CA. Ordered on 2/14, Pearl White, VIN # 81XX. The VIN # was not there this AM...

    Financing question for owners - Tech CU

    I found the Term/Rate info on their website... says 1.99% for up to 60 months.... that's a good deal! I "checked the box" that I was going to finance through Tesla, but should be easy to change and go with Tech CU, huh? Need a VIN #....

    Financing question for owners - Tech CU

    Could someone please let me know what the Tech CU Rates are for excellent credit scores? Term and rate? Thanks! Think I read somewhere that through Tesla it's around 2.5% for 60 months? Is Tech CU better?

    I am now planning to get the full self-driving option and here is why

    I configured on 2/14 with EAP and kind of wish I had not opted for the 5K EAP option.... we have it on our S and don't think we've gotten anywhere near 5K-Worth out of it. My wife has never used it and I've used it just a few times on longer trips..... So on one hand, I feel like it was a big...

    No recent VIN assignments?

    I too configured on 2-14 and ordered white. No Vin # yet.....

    No recent VIN assignments?

    I'm just a RN, yes I'm only a RN, and I'm sitting here checking MyTesla account again and again... I hope and pray that I will, but today I must still, wait and chill....

    Flash Poll for US Owners: Can you configure your Model 3?

    OK, so seems like Tesla invited all the remaining US prior Tesla owners to configure which means that most of the first production LR orders, from prior Tesla owners, are in and configured... but the math seems a little fuzzy... I placed my order on August 2nd 2016 and thought there were around...

    Take the ( 725) call ...

    Congrats kwoo4424! Does your M3 seem easier to park without worrying about scrapping the front bumper? That's my only gripe about the MS.... the longish nose and low bumper.....
  44. Bartman1

    East Coast timing

    I mean.... I would like to get the car this month, even though I have not been contacted yet, and nobody else on the West Coast, who reserved on day #1, and owns a Tesla, has got their M3 yet.... at least tell me a somewhat believable lie!
  45. Bartman1

    East Coast timing

    My delivery estimate is also Dec 17 to Feb 18. I'm in Florida, own a MS and reserved in August. Seems like these dates in the Delivery Estimator are worthless.......
