    Tesla Model 3 Moments

    Last week pulled up to stoplight like every other morning. One morning in particular a lady in an older 2000 something suv pulls up in the left lane next to me. Most of the time people who do this try to gun it and get into the right lane on-ramp. (Aka the lane I was in). Light turns green, I...

    Summons Fail - Crashed - Body Shop Repair Estimate

    It is scary to use when there are objects around but last night was first time I truly had to use summon. I went inside to grab a bite to eat with the gf. Come outside and someone parks next to me over the line leaving no more than 5-6 inches between my drivers door and his passenger side. Of...

    How do you carry house keys?

    I have the same smartlocks but my mailbox isn’t locked. No keys at all for me. I like it. Keypad deadbolt that is battery powered. Have them on 2 doors just in case power goes out for garage door and batteries out on keypad.

    No offense, the current card/phone setup is utter *sugar*

    Or be smart and get battery enabled locks on front and back doors in case of power outage. <— no more keys needed. If phone battery dies I can still walk up to door and use battery powered deadbolt touch pads

    InsideEVs: Key Fob free to current owners!

    Agree. I’ve gotten rid of every key other than the car key. The model 3 completed that process and it’s great not having to have another item in my pocket or something to lose/forget. Phone is on me 24/7, so I’m happy to use it. If free I’ll take a fob but just leave it at home.

    No car on delivery day... :(

    I’d recommend calling the local delivery center a couple days before. I ended up stopping by a few days in advance to check the car out and everything was good for delivery.

    From 340xi to Tesla dual motor Model 3 - mini comparo.

    Add me to that previous bmw or Audi sports sedan owner that has switched. Years back when I took my first test drive of a p90d model s I was sold. It made me push my car at the time m235i on the highway but it didn’t bring that smile/grin like the Tesla did. I knew I couldn’t afford that model...

    Picking up this weekend. Still No VIN?

    You don’t need an insurance policy with your model 3 on it before delivery. Most insurance companies provide a grace period to add on a new vehicle. Just show proof to Tesla you have insurance and you’ll be fine. Add the vehicle when you take delivery and arrive home.

    Staggering amount of issues found at/after delivery. Considering returning the car.

    Forgot to mention if everyone thinks other car brands are perfect, they’re not. You may get a great car but take it to a detailer and let them inspect it. They’ll find issues with it. My detailer had a brand new Ferrari in and the paint literally had bumps all along the door that felt like...

    Staggering amount of issues found at/after delivery. Considering returning the car.

    That’s because the dealership already sent the cars into the body shop for repairs and repainting before they “usually” put them on the lot. <— 2011 335xi previous owner

    Delivery Day Trade In Process

    This was exactly it. I just drove my old Tahoe to the service/delivery center. I started to look at new model 3, a Tesla rep came up and asked for keys for my old trade incro confirm mileage. That was it other than hand him the title and sign it over.

    Key card you do have to actively lock and unlock car. I’ve read people have the same car on separate apps but I cannot confirm. GF only gets 2nd key card. :P

    AWD front motor sounds

    I hear a whine from the front motor as well on my AWD. Has anyone made a video recording the sound? Would like to know what’s okay vs what’s not okay according to other owners and Tesla.

    Delay delivery

    Happens all the time. They only hold a car that matches your requested options. It’s not your car until you pay for it. Average time is about 3 weeks for reassignment and delivery. Search the forum. You’re not the first.

    At delivery you can make a ACH transfer using their iPads. I did that after inspecting vehicle for an hour.

    Inside sales delivery advisor - Radio silence

    From what I’ve read and seen your original order date will keep the prices as long as you don’t change anything that price has changed. (Paint, etc) Their system takes awhile and remember they’re understaffed. There are good ISAs , unfortunately they’re dealing with 100+ people calling or...

    Decided Against PPF? Regrets? Pictures?

    I got my full front done and picking up Monday. I’m glad I’m doing this as that front bumper is a magnet for bugs and rocks. My previous car m235i in white, after babying it for 3 years, always washed with two bucket method, never automated washes unless touchless, ceramic coating, etc. I...

    AWD delivery thread

    Yep I just mentioned I needed it to add to my insurance and received the VIN the same day as my request. I also had a great IDA who helped me get a signed copy of MVPA for my credit union and even made sure I got a delivery date that matched my vacation schedule. I think the car arrived earlier...

    AWD delivery thread

    You can ACH at delivery. I did that for my big down payment. I spent an hour checking out the vehicle and then made the down payment. No need for trip to bank. Picked up vehicle on Monday so I doubt they’ve changed the policy.

    Ohio M3 AWD(non-P) Waiting room

    Picked my car up Monday and it’s a blast to drive. Already said I’m not going back to ICE. I took an hour to review the car, showed up 30 minutes early and kinda walked right into the delivery center as my delivery guy was still setting up. Overall happy but I will say i felt I had to repeat...

    Order Today, get it by End of Year? Options to avoid?

    No one truly knows but orders are moving quickly. Order what you want and the sooner the better the chance at delivery by end of year. AWD do appear to take longer though but it’s worth the wait

    Final cost question

    Ask your IDA/ISA to get it signed. I sent an email asking for it saying it was required for my loan. The IDA will get the appropriate person with a license for that state to sign the document that has your esignature on it.

    Should I add EAP before or after I get a VIN?

    I added EAP after receiving a delivery date. Did not push my delivery date back. No extra fee, just the $5000 for the option.
