    Ground Clearance

    Most super cars have a front suspension lift button - F cars, Lambo, even the new vette. It would be pretty odd for the Roadster to not have that capability.

    Recalibration after windshield replacement

    FYI it might take 100 miles or so for AP to get things straight - I was hugging lanes for days. Then boom, back to normal.

    Tesla Model Performance Model 3 Sleeper Models $50k - value of upgrades?

    If you NEED better brakes, you are better off getting aftermarket.

    on driving a Jeep with TACC and lane assist..

    Can you use the TACC w/o lane keep assist being on? I do wish our Jeep had TACC and that might be a terrible excuse for us to get a Gladiator next year =) Shame they are SOOO ugly.

    From a Jeep to a M3?

    Just did an oil change on my JK while the Tesla say there and laughed at me. Having both is the best of both worlds, until we can get an electric Jeep =)

    Miles at 100% charge (P3D Long Range) -- 282 miles available.

    I had "high voltage fuse" problems due to "software issue" - after that, 100% charge was right around your number. Tried to SC it and threw an error. Care is now getting a new battery installed.

    P3D+ w/ 5% increase: 1/8 Mile Numbers

    Someone needs to get custom software on a P3D - the 60 foot times are so nerfed, this car would be a monster in the 1/8th - I'd be happy with the 60 foots I used to pull with my diamond star in the late 90s. I'm not even saying we need 1.49s - 1.6s should be fine unless axles are made of glass.

    Down to 265 at max charge after "high voltage fuse" repair

    Hello, and thanks for reading! Car had to be serviced after I got the "pull over now..." message. Turns out it was the "high voltage fuse" due to a "software issue". Hmmm... Did get a new 12V out of it. Didn't realize it at first but a normal charge to 80 was low - decided to go for 100%...

    Just ordered my P3D. Is there a break in period like ICE?

    About ten mins...

    Performance or LR Dual Motor for commute?

    The answer is always P. But with 18s or maybe 19s

    Traded in C7 Z06 for M3P

    People made fun of me when I said the 3P is the new DSM/EVO/GTR... But it really is. I can't wait to see what is out there in 5 years.

    Thinking About Selling Camaro SS 1LE For a Model 3

    You probably won't be happy with anything less than the P3D... Make sure you drive the car first.

    What tires are you running there?

    AP self-calibration after windshield replacement

    Posting this so that people can find it via search. After having my windshield replaced, AP was hugging the right line, even crossing over the line. At 80 miles post-service it was still terrible. At ~100 miles post-service it woke up and I'm back in business. If you run in to the same...

    Performance Upgrade Price Change!

    Thank you Elon. Will put the $5K towards a second 3.

    Performance Upgrade Price Change!

    Have a read here if you have not yet. Aftermarket is going to be needed, not just pads but the brakes are not up to the task: Tesla M3D review: split decision - Laguna Edition - Rennlist - Porsche Discussion Forums

    Performance Upgrade Price Change!

    Except the brakes on the PUP are really not good at all. They were toast after 3 laps. They are not what I would have expected when Elon promised this was going to beat the M3 around the track. They are going to need to be replaced with something aftermarket if you ever want to really track...

    Performance Upgrade Price Change!

    If you read that review of the P3 on the track over at Rennlist (the P forum), you will see that the P3 PUP brakes didn't last 3 laps... This is why I didn't go with the PUP. I wanted better wheels and much better brakes. P- owners knew they wanted better. Give us TM. Here is a link - good...

    Picking up P3D+ in two weeks and it's suppose to snow, what should I do?

    Even the high temps listed above are bad for those tires...

    Picking up P3D+ in two weeks and it's suppose to snow, what should I do?

    My experience - Drove my STI, with summer performance tires, in a dusting (DUSTING) of snow. It was bad. Really bad. Find a way to not drive on those tires if there is going to be snow.

    Anyone with CCW Wheels?

    And now I'm all misty eyed over my former Supra. CCW's and Supra or C5 Z06, mmmm....

    M3P+ Close But Not Quite There for Track/Performance Use

    P3 is no track monster, not even close. Buy an old Miata until you can't improve your skills (which will likely take years). Then upgrade everything on it, spend more years getting faster. Then when you think you are good, buy something like a used Radical.

    Performance Upgrade Price Change!

    Free PUP while keeping FUSC, tempting (especially if you keep the Aero wheels to sell)... Losing FUSC, take the $5k and add better brakes and wheels IMO.

    I would have taken a credit against a future purchase

    Track mode coming to all performance model 3s!

    Sure it's worth it. You will have it, and if you ever want to upgrade the brakes, you can. There are great options that will work with 19s, and "better" options that will work under 18s.

    TSLA Market Action: 2018 Investor Roundtable

    This is the biggest point. Next time I'll probably wait longer before I pull the trigger. If all P owners get the refund, promised track mode, we see times on a track with the same driver beat M3 times (/S), all is well. But Elon, you have to think these things through...

    Performance Upgrade package now for free!!!

    P3D- after refund means you have $10k in your pocket vs P3D+ (ignore free SC). You will get track mode. So then if you WANT, go buy real brakes (better than the PUP brakes), better 19" wheels (you don't want 20s), choice of tires and have cash left over. Sell your aeros for a few dollars...

    Hello and thanks for reading! I have a brand new in box gen 2 wall connector (not signature). I would like to sell or trade for your somewhat minty (but need not be unused) gen 2 mobile bundle (or what you got in the trunk of your Model 3) + $75. Will sell for $400 OBO. Prefer someone local.

    Performance Model 3 now shows 3.3 0-60

    I used to pull 1.6x 60 foot times on my 2G diamond star, 17 inch wheels with the stock tires. I can't imagine the P3D is not capable of a 1.6. Come on launch mode.

    Crazy process of getting quotes for NEMA 14-50

    For reference: I had two 14-50's installed. One install was on the same wall as the panel, about 3 feet away, surface mount. Cost was $135. (Yes, $135). Second (different house) was in the garage, adjacent wall to the panel, about 22 feet run, surface mount conduit, with a controller for...

    Console Wrap Experiences

    WOW, that is trick. I installed the Kenriko last night. I did white so you can see a few issues on the edges. Once I get annoyed with it I'll be going with something like the EVwrap.

    Snow chains on Model 3 Performance+

    The stock tires on my STI were deathtraps with just a sprinkle of snow. (I took delivery at the wrong time of year...) I wouldn't get anywhere near snow let alone the temps with the stock tires on the P+. Get a second set of wheels and tires.

    Why is Tesla building Model 3 “inventory” cars?

    You have capacity to build XX cars in the final 7-10 days of the Q. But you can't get them in the hands of anyone outside of YY miles from the factory. If you want to boost deliveries, build something you think people will buy and see what happens. Yes, we would prefer they build cars for...

    Question about Devon PA delivery & state inspection

    Does anyone in the area have a suggested shop for inspections? I would hope they won't want to pull a wheel to check brakes when the car is close to zero miles... Would prefer not to teach them how to lift the car, although I do have 4 jack pad adapters ready to go.

    Question about Devon PA delivery & state inspection

    Re-posting over here in hopes of better visibility... Does anyone know if current deliveries through Devon are coming with PA inspection stickers? Or do we need to go and get our own done? Thanks for reading!

    Pennsylvania EV Rebate

    Question about PA (Devon) delivery & inspection

    Hello and thanks for reading! Has anyone had a delivery recently in Devon PA? Are they still not inspecting the cars? And are plates coming in the mail? Assuming they are not inspecting, does anyone have anyone in that area they like for an initial inspection? Kills me that we can't be like...

    First 1/4 mile time slip for P3D? 1.84 60 foot times

    While you are right, the P3D is going to attract the go-fast market. There will be a ton of money to be made. The hackers will come. Check back in a year =)
