I would not want to take on more debt and pay a higher interest rate to trade in a car in perfect condition with low mileage and nothing wrong with it.

Thanks! Looks like I’ll be making a trip to Santa Monica shortly.

Has anyone seen an M3P at a Tesla sales gallery yet? I heard they may have on display somewhere in Los Angeles. Where else have they shown up?

What country is this for? I’m not seeing any price change on M3H in the US.

For those of you who can’t use summer tires all year round what is your plan?

Any insight on why the M3P is only available with summer tires but if you click on “learn more” it shows all three options. It wouldn’t make sense to ship a car with summer tires to the North East region.

LOL. That was fast.

I was hoping the new M3P would not qualify for the tax credit. Now I’m tempted to buy it. That’s a lot of car for $46K!

I think it’s a good idea to keep a spare tire in your garage when you are driving locally. Worst case you flat bed the car home and then change the tire. For longer distance trips you have to live with it in the trunk or the back seat. It’s not ideal but it is what it is.

Just installed the Teslaunch All-In-One rim protector for 21” Ubertine wheels. Wow, I’m impressed. The color match is perfect. You can barely tell they are on. And installation was less than one minute per wheel. Great product!

MY pricing has been better than M3 pricing for a while now. When I was shopping for end of quarter deals an MYP after tax credit was the same price as the RWD M3.

Tesla is not really all that different from the car dealer tactics we’ve all come to know. They don’t negotiate individual deals like dealers do but they change their pricing and incentives so frequently that you have to know how to play their game to get the best price.

I did not get the acoustic version, just the regular 4S.

The LR AWD gray/black was $44K with the inventory discounts in March.

Tesla just dropped their MSRP on Model Y by $2K a few minutes ago.

Do you mean EAP? Owners with EAP still have to pay the full $99/month if they want the upgrade to FSD so it’s not a great investment at this point as it would take five years to recoup the cost over renting and you still don’t have full FSD.

Thank you. I just ordered a set.

Is the Teslaunch product a single piece or multiple pieces? I’ve seen some review videos showing it being a single solid piece but on their own website it shows multiple pieces being installed per wheel like the Magbak product.

I spoke to a sales advisor today and he said they have A LOT of Model Y’s in stock so I think it’s safe to assume supply will exceed demand at end of Q2.

I was manually parking in a spot that had a curb on my right and I thought I could rely on Vision to guide me in. Vision showed I had plenty of room but the curb decided otherwise and I incurred minor curb rash on the front wheel. It left me wondering, if Vision was inaccurate in estimating the...

I passed by a Tesla sales gallery today so I stopped in to ask a sales advisor if he had any idea what’s happening with the discounts. He said the discounts just went away one day without any warning to the employees, and they still have not heard from anyone at Tesla what to expect moving...

Good point. I probably lean more toward comfort so that might not be thick enough for me.

I’ve been reading a lot of reviews on air mattresses for the Model Y and the one that looks interesting to me is the LightEase memory foam mattress. It does not require any inflation which I would prefer just to keep it maintenance free. Has anyone tried it...

I think the complaints vary so much because people are used to different levels of comfort based on what cars they drove previously. I have a 2024 MYP with stock 21” tires. I read so many complaints about the comfort level of this configuration that I almost did not buy it. But after driving...

Reducing the MSRP, at least on Model Y, would also make him look ridiculous because he insisted that prices would go up as of April 1 by at least $1K.

So any guess what the strategy is here with removing the discounts when they have so much inventory? I know they will probably come back end of quarter but it’s only April and they still need to sell cars between now and end of June.

Prices briefly dropped to $47K for the MYP for existing Tesla owners via the paint credit at the end of March. Otherwise $48K was the low. I think we’ll see those prices again end of June, if not sooner. I went with the MYP because of the discount and tax credit. I test drove the Highland M3...

It’s hard to guess what Tesla is doing here given that we’ve been led to believe they have a massive amount of sitting inventory. And it coincides with the 10% layoff announcement this morning. The black/black MYP that i purchased on March 31 for $47,040 is now $53,270. Over $6K increase in...

The spread seems to have narrowed significantly from when you bought to when I bought. Just looking at LR AWD vs MYP now and the spread between the two is only $210. When I bought it was $3K.

So now the MYP is within $210 of the LR AWD. Southern California.

I’m referring to the price after the Federal Tax credit, but the spread wouldn’t change. It was $44K end of quarter for the LR AWD and $41K for RWD.

It’s an interesting discussion and I’m honestly still trying to understand from the perspective of the RWD owners why they made that choice. Once you are spending $34K for a Model Y, an extra $3K gives you a bigger battery, second motor for AWD, faster acceleration, and better sound. On resale...

Clearly. Speed is the major factor that affects range. The faster you drive the worse your range. https://electrek.co/2018/05/27/tesla-model-3-range-new-hypermiling-record/

Ah, under seating layout. Jeez, I never would have thought to look for a description of the sound system there. Tesla really needs to make this easier to find. They need a detailed comparison of the different trim levels. They used to have this at least on the Model 3 page years ago.

Have there been any updates to potential solutions for wireless charging on the MY? My IPhone 15 Pro Max will not charge at all with the case on, even when turned up side down. It does work with the case off but it’s too much hassle to remove the case every time I set it down. My case works...

Where did you find this screen? I’ve looked all over the website for a description of the differences in audio between RWD and LR and can’t find it anywhere.

I did a ceramic coating on our Model 3’s five years ago and after five years the paint still looks great on both of them. I haven’t experienced a lot of rock chips. I’m sure I could find a few if I look hard enough but I’d rather not try.

I can easily ride like I’m in chill mode by just being less aggressive. I see no point in ever using it for me personally.

You would be surprised how many people don’t even take the time to learn about the tax credit and just jump in and buy a used MY for almost the price of a new one after the credit. I see it all the time on Reddit in the MY sub. But I agree the used pricing for MYs on the Tesla site is...

People who live in very cold climates tend to complain the most, but in fairness, EVs take a big range hit when the temperature drops.

It actually centered the car perfectly. I just have to get more comfortable with the technology. I’ve only had the car for two weeks so I’m being very cautious about it. I don’t want to dent my brand new MYP.

I ordered my car on March 30 and took delivery on March 31. Things happen very quickly when Tesla is trying to make their numbers. The car was already in inventory so there was no transit time.

The difference in price between the RWD and LR AWD is only around $3K on discounted inventory models. I don’t understand why anyone would choose RWD for such a small savings. Even if you ignore the audio system differences, for $3K you get a much faster car, longer range, and dual motors for...

I used auto park for the first time today on my 2024 MYP. It was very difficult to give up control and hope the car knew what it was doing. It did a good job backing in to the space but it backed up to within a foot of a concrete poll. Considering I don’t have USS and Vision is not super...

I heard so much about the rough ride on the MYP that I hesitated for months about buying one. But after putting a few hundred miles on mine over the past two weeks I really haven’t noticed any issue with the suspension riding rough. I’m coming from a 2019 Model 3 LR RWD which had an even...

Since you specified AWD there’s either the LR model or the Performance model. P is faster but has less range due to the larger tires.

There was a post on Reddit with pictures from someone who did just this. https://www.reddit.com/r/TeslaModelY/s/kw8Dnuaj2A

I’m trying to decide whether to order the Modern Spare tire kit for my MYP. In the past I drove an M3 and just kept an extra wheel/tire in my garage figuring I could flatbed the car home if I’m local and swap tires at home. But with the MYP I would have to purchase both front and rear tires to...

They discount the cars more as they sit on the lot longer. It’s very common to see multiple prices on the exact same car. Sometimes they are in different locations but not always.

Mine just updated to two years - exactly one week after I took delivery.
