    Heated Steering wheel

    I'm a 3 owner that's driven through 2 Chicago winters. I thought I'd miss having a heated steering wheel, but being able to preheat the car via the phone app works perfectly for me.

    P85D(L?) for $45K at Tesla Used

    I’m being offered 2 years of fusc if I take an inventory 3 by the end of the month. They’re dealing.

    Finally the used P100D price cuts are here on Tesla - starting from $67k

    There was a used 2016 p100dl with 35k miles, pup and subzero on Tesla.com this afternoon for $63K. Crazy!

    2016 - Model S 75D - Deal Check?

    Is the owner a pilot that’s out of town a lot? There’s been a similar scam floating around for the last year or so.

    Performance or LR Dual Motor for commute?

    Floored from a standstill, the AWD elicits a "whooooaaaaa," whereas the P3D creates uncontrollable screaming, laughter, and "holy sh*t"s from first-time passengers. I love my AWD, but have minor buyer's remorse over not getting the P3D. I agree with the other posters who said to wait til the end...

    Any Model 3 Deliveres Scheduled this week? Chicago?

    Sounds like the experience hasn't improved any from when I took delivery last October. It's normal. They're awful.

    Anyone get their Wheels and Tires (Seasonally) Changed at Tesla?

    Hey brodyc (or anyone else in Chicagoland), if you need a place to store your wheels off-season and handle swaps, I whole-heartedly recommend Top Store. They used to be in the West Loop, but are out in Berkeley now. My 3D has all-seasons on it so I'm not currently doing business with then, but...

    Help me time my M3 purchase.

    Don't give them money until it's much closer to June. Delivery times are much, much shorter now.

    Downsides of Performance vs Long Range?

    If you drive on crappy roads, the 20"s are much more likely to blow out when you hit a pothole. Also, they cost more and wear quicker.

    Any advise on purchasing a used Tesla from the experts;-)

    Just watch it for a few days. They will keep lowering the price. They’ll lower it quite a bit, but then if it doesn’t sell they jack it up again.

    What would be a ok winter tires for who have 20” summer tires?

    You really want a smaller tire for winter usage. A smaller road contact area with more weight on it will equal better traction. It costs around $250 to have a set of tires mounted and balanced, so keep that in mind when you're figuring out the cost of a 2nd set of wheels vs how long you think...

    WTB: 75D with AP 2.0 & Free SC

    Nice username! Even though I love my Tesla, I miss my 997. Best of luck with your search!

    To Performance or not to performance... AWD? P? I can't decide!

    I got the AWD after having a slightly modded BMW 335i and a 997 C4S. The AWD is faster than both of them for normal use. Anecdotally, the Germans pulled harder when you get up into "go to jail" speeds, but for normal use the AWD kicks their asses. I sometimes wish I'd gotten the P3D, but would...

    Has anyone taken delivery at Westmont, IL?

    I got mine from there. I was rescheduled once, and they ended up driving it to my house (15 minutes away.) The car was perfect, aside from 2 tiny paint bumps on the passenger doors, which Tesla will take care of at some point.

    I got a notification from the app on my phone. There's nothing about v9 in my inbox.

    I ordered a Performance 3. The car at delivery was an AWD.

    I took delivery of my car tonight and wanted to have your dumb luck more than anything, but sadly it was not meant to be. The AWD pulls better than my 2011 335i though, so it's all good.

    AWD delivery thread

    That's ****ing ridiculous, and I'm sorry. They make a great product, but large portions of their company need to be cleaned out with a flamethrower, or better yet be run by people who know what they're doing. My friend's brother bought a p3d whose hood was scratched badly at delivery. They...

    AWD delivery thread

    Aaaand I have a car. It's amazing. Hang in there, everybody! It had 3 small paint bubbles on the passenger doors, which were noted in the due bill by the Tesla rep that delivered my car and will be fixed at some point in the near future. I live 15 minutes from the Westmont, IL SC, so the rep...

    AWD delivery thread

    I have a VIN but no car yet (it's supposedly being delivered to my house tomorrow night.) I was supposed to take delivery at Tesla Westmont last Saturday, but they cancelled on me the night before via text. I'd already insured it via USAA Friday afternoon, and the Model 3 trim choices on their...

    AWD delivery thread

    There's no difference between AWD and P VINs. The insurance companies can't know. I suspect this means that P drivers will pay a little less than they should and AWD drivers a little more.

    AWD delivery thread

    I have a vin and a signed mvpa, and thought I was gonna get a car today. I got a text after midnight last night that no, they wouldn’t have my car ready. What a clown show. I’m at least rescheduled for delivery next Thursday.

    Model 3 Order Agreement

    I got the same thing and had the same initial response. Upon closer inspection, they're just moving numbers around. The Premium interior and Long Range battery are now "included" with no additional cost, but the cost of my AWD upgrade has gone up to $20,000. The total purchase price is the same...

    Who has noticed any p3d or 3D for sale?

    I called him and talked to him a few weeks ago. His asking price is very close (maybe 1k more?) than list + Illinois sales tax - federal tax credit, and the pictures look like they were taken in the suburb he claims they were, a few miles from my house. I didn’t make an offer because I want AP...

    Who has noticed any p3d or 3D for sale?

    There are a couple on cars.com and Autotrader. A guy near me in Chicago had a white/black p3d with no ap enabled for like 64K.

    Tesla loan comparison spreadsheet - auto updates hourly

    I was texting with my delivery person yesterday and they said the best they thought Tesla could do was 3.7% for 72. I guess it can’t hurt to ask?

    Tesla loan comparison spreadsheet - auto updates hourly

    I just got approved for 3.49@72 months from USAA. Not as good as those engaging in CU min/maxing here, but better than I thought. They will do either 110% or 120% LTV as well for those considering.

    Given that the AWD is a software-limited version of the P, I hope that's the case as well.

    Silver Metallic Exterior / White Interior pics

    I love the white interior on MSM and deep blue exteriors, but am not sure how it looks on silver. I’m having a devil of a time finding photos of cars like this that aren’t either cg renders or of the launch car. Can anyone point me to some? Apologies if I’m posting in the wrong sub forum. Thanks...

    Silver AWD configurations and deliveries

    No argument there. My wife asked last night if I thought we'd get free t-shirts or whatnot for buying the car. I told her that based on my experiences dealing with them thus far, we'd be lucky if we got a punch in the stomach.

    Silver AWD configurations and deliveries

    I thought that was the Tesla kool aid name for sales person. My bad. I meant “sales person at my local Tesla store that will return my calls.” I’ve been dealing with him since I test drove the 3 two weekends ago. If they didn’t feel like they could accelerate silver/black production, why...

    Silver AWD configurations and deliveries

    Hi all! New Team Silver recruit here. I reserved in 7/17, wanting to wait for an AWD. Since the awd pricing and options were announced, I’d been hemming and hawing between a new 3 and a used S at the same price point. The Tesla email about them doing a final silver and black push got me tempted...
