    Confused about Autopilot discount

    I paid about $2K more in August then if I were to order today. But since I can't order Enhanced AP today, it is not exactly the same (+$1K with FSD or -$4K with just AP). At the end of the day I could have gotten FSD for the price I paid for EAP (or I could have gotten AWD instead of RWD for...

    Call and ask about Dual Motor badge

    For me, I don't like badging and have taken it off of the last cars I have owned. I just don't find it necessary to tell everyone on the road the trim level (or engine/battery size) of my car. Badging is outdated. Do you see an X (or whatever is the latest $1K phone) on the iPhone?

    Need advice regarding EV Federal Tax Credit

    The other person is at risk, but the other person got the tax credit. Depends on how/if they plan on sharing the tax credit. For me, I wouldn't do it. I would be mad at myself for not getting this straighten out last year, heck, I have nightmares about forgetting to tell my tax guy to take...

    Wind noise at 70+mph

    I had a problem with what I called wind noise and went to the SC. The noise sound like someone was tapping on the roof above the front passenger door. The tech diagnosed it on the spot. The front wheel well liner was loose. Sure enough, when you tap on the liner it made the same noise. He...

    EAP and HOV lanes changed behavior in 42.3

    I had my car in for service yesterday, on my way home I hug the right side of every lane I am in (HOV, standard lane, and exit ramp). The screen clearly indicates that I am not centered in the lane. I upgraded to 42.4 a couple days prior to my appointment and I had not problems. While in for...

    Chrome delete in Toronto Area

    I did the chrome delete myself and tried and failed at PPF. Chrome delete is MUCH more forgiving. I give my chrome delete job a 7 out of 10. The mirrors are a nightmare and took me over one hour for each mirror (I took one off and did the other on the vehicle, if I were to do it again, leave...

    Tesla loan comparison spreadsheet - auto updates hourly

    If Lightstream approves your for unsecured loan, you never put Lightstream on the title as a lien holder. If they approved you for a secured loan, they will probably want to send the money directly to Tesla.

    So my 3's climate system crashed...

    Similar thing happened to me. Needed to do the hard reboot, not the 2 steering wheel buttons but a full reboot of the entire car. Don't remember exactly how to do it.

    Estimated Depreciation after 3 Years

    OP, do you not pay sales tax in your state? Of course this is all speculation because there are a lot of variables. If there is a Model 3 with 400 mile range, our resale will drop (I wonder what happened to the resale for any other plug in with less then 150 miles of range when the Model 3...

    wtb Model s with autopilot under 35k

    Won't prices increase a little after the tax credit goes away? When I bought my M3, I compared new M3, new S or used S. I compared what my out the door cost would be on all 3 vehicles, and with the tax incentive, new was the way to go by far. I would assume when the price of new models...

    Picked up 3 days early

    I was able to pick up my M3 3 days early just by calling the delivery center and asking. On Tue, my advisor scheduled delivery for the following Monday. After I completed all of the paperwork, I called the delivery center on Wed to see if I can pick up the car early. They let me know the car...

    Tesla Trade In Amount --- Tesla will match Carmax trade-in offer

    One of the concerns that I had with waiting on my Tesla is should I sell my car or trade it in. Without getting a trade-in offer from Tesla until a few days prior to taking delivery, it was hard to make an informed decision. To get an idea of my vehicles value, I took my vehicle to Carmax and...

    Pre-purchase Questions

    You can delay delivery by getting back in line with no loss of deposit. I ordered about 3 weeks before my mortgage re-fi was closing, expecting it to be 2-4 months for the car. I got an email a week later said my vehicle is a week away. I spoke with my adviser and told her my situation, she...

    Is this a record?

    I am coming from a pick up truck to my Model 3, its been a long time since I have owned a car, but, the Long Range RWD is exactly what I wanted. I would probably not purchase a short range and I certainly would not pay for AWD. Living in Phoenix, I didn't even look at the price of the AWD...

    Good price to buy used?

    I ordered a Model 3 about 2 weeks ago (estimated delivery 1-3 months). With autopilot and tax I will be about $60K, less the $7.5K rebate. I looked at a couple used Model 3's, some with as little as 1k miles (the guy wanted to upgrade to the performance version). Asking price... $50-60K...
