These look terrific...did they come with the Tesla center caps as well?

I ordered mine on 10/13 - registered, no trade-in, financing completed, I haven't heard anything as of yet. I was in a car accident and totaled my IOINQ 5 on 10/7 so I'm really hoping this doesn't take too long. I hope this RWD isn't just a "once in a while" production thing.

These look incredible! I'm looking for something just like them. I see they are American Racing 924s. When I look at these on pretty much every website, they all say they wont fit the Model 3 even though the bolt pattern is the same. Can you tell me if you had to do anything special? I'm...

SR+ picked up 6/19 - rear heated seats went away this week.

SR+ rear heater access has been disabled on both APP and in-cabin

I commend you for that, Kenriko. I was scouring the web trying to find a template for the repeaters, but I cant find anything. I have no intentions of selling and/or undercutting any company producing these kits. I ordered a roll of 2" x 50' matte black and a sheet of 1' x 5' matte black and...

I'm literally at a loss for words...

I think that is incorrect. At my delivery appt. the specialist asked if I had already downloaded the app, I said I had. She pressed some items on her iPad and paired my phone to the car and it showed up instantly. I have to imagine they have that option at all delivery appointments. I didn't...

Same as 640k - My car showed up in the app at my delivery appt.

I'll take your advice (for now).

I don't have white - but I applied Hydrosilex on my seats and its worked really well. I also applied to my exterior and glass, it works really well.

Admittedly I've not owned "fast" cars. My last car was a Q50 (which I felt was fast) and before that was a 2015 Mustang Turbo 4 (which I also felt was fast) I have ridden in an Enzo back in the day and that was absolutely insane. - I think, at least for me, part of the reason it feels fast is...

Agree totally. The speed of my SR+ has totally blown my friends/family away. I'd love to try the AWD or AWD Performance. My 8 mile round-trip commute and negative equity in my trade-in dictated I go with SR+. Glad you're loving the car.

$370.30 per 6 months w/ USAA.

That's all that matters, my friend! Enjoy!

THIS x100000. I see photos of the red and think it looks incredible. I see it in person and hate it!. I don't understand.

The answer is "it depends" I did my own chrome delete on my Q50 and I was quite happy with how it turned out. The Model 3 is a bit more difficult in my estimation because of the chrome under the mirror. I'm going to attempt it with the Tesla Bros. chrome delete kit releasing this Friday. If you...

Just applied my first coat of Hydro Silex Recharge, love the stuff. The car shines like crazy and it only took about 30-45 mins to apply.

Mine had upgraded aftermarket 19" rims and tires and I was afraid of the same thing. My suggestion would be to take off the easy stuff and sell it. You probably wont get much for it, but you'll get nothing if you trade the car in with it attached! I really wish I would have bought an old set of...

I hope you're correct. The faster charging speed is the ONLY thing that I wish my car had vs. the LR models. Everything in my car is perfect and I absolutely love it.

Traded in my 2015 Q50 a week ago today. They sat in the car, wrote the mileage down from the dash and that was it. They never started or drove the car, it was INSANE! I saw someone post of photo of their pickup from the same showroom 3 days later and the car was still parked where I left it...

I will be hitting a supercharger in Wythville, VA this coming Saturday (6/28). I have the SR+ build date 06/19 and just received the latest software update (2019.20.4.2) last night. I will report back my findings as well.

I ordered a universal garage door remote on amazon ($19, prime shipping, battery included) boom, problem solved.

Picked mine up June 16th, mfg date 06/19, also on 2019.15.103

Looks amazing!

Ordered 6/6!

Yep, I got the delivery txt message, logged into my account and the VIN was there already. Along with the date of my delivery appt.

UPDATE 2: Got a txt this morning that said my car was in transit and I needed to make a delivery appt. I chose 6/19 @ 6:00 PM, wow am I excited. I hope this last batch of cars weren't too terribly rushed. I cant believe i'm going to be a TESLA OWNER!!! WAHOOO :D:D:D

Update, Carmax offered me $11,500 they dinged me for having after-market wheels :(

I placed my order 6/6 SR+ no options, black/black/aero - Im in Charlotte. Have a trade in, nothing has moved in my account since I ordered. You had a great turn-around time.

That's interesting, certain cars must be targeted, Im trading in a 2015 Q50, Carvana offered me $9,500, Tesla offered me $12,100. I'm going to visit CarMax tonight, it'll be interesting to see what they say.

Really? I never even considered that as a possibility. I assume I'll get offered something different that what I ordered, (upgraded paint, wheels, etc..) but not money off.

Well that really sucks! My contact at the SC assures me it’s not being help up by the trade in. He even suggested to take my car to Carmax and have them give me an offer and they’ll match it (which I plan to do tonight). He also guaranteed I’d get delivery before by 6/30.

My “manage” page in my account has been stuck on “prepare for delivery” with was seems to be my trade-in holding up the process. It says “a Tesla advisor will review your trade in vehicle details and will contact you within 24 hours when your valuation is complete” It has been this way for 3...

For sure, they will be happy when this is over!

Ordered SR+ black/black/aeros on 6/6, still waiting on someone to call me and confirm details about my trade-in. I was told at my local SC that as long as I placed my order by 6/9 I was guaranteed delivery by 6/30 (I'm not convinced). edit: no VIN

This color, my goodness. Is this the Galaxy 3m ?

Many thanks! I plan on purchasing the SR + just as soon as I get my current car sold. Dealing with all of these tire kickers is maddening!!!

I appreciate all the info. I think it definitely makes sense to do the wall charger, especially considering the rebate.

V Retired electrician. And I was trying to do the legwork for him so I could just tell him what I needed. Thanks for your input!

The cars no longer come with the UMC, correct? So technically I’d have to buy one anyway, even if I had the wall charger ?

This is probably true! The main reason for my consideration is, my electric company in NC has a $500 rebate for the installation of home charging equipment, this would essentially cover the cost of the Tesla wall charger!

I’m reading about charging volts, amps, connections etc. My uncle is an electrician, but is completely clueless about EV charging. He’s happy to install whatever I need, however, he’s looking to me for that information (naturally). My panel is in my garage, literally right next to where I’ll be...

This is what I like to hear! I did check out Abetterrouteplanner that’s a pretty cool site. Will definitely be using that in the future.

Makes total sense. Heading north we do have a pretty decent elevation change, but we don’t go to Ohio in the winter! I appreciate the input.

Thanks, I’m not familiar with that but I’ll give it a look.

Great post, billionaire. I have to say, I've been chomping at the bit to get my INFINITI Q50 sold and get my Tesla Model 3 order in, however, reading this gives my pause. My budget allows for the SR+ and while I work a mere 4 miles from my home, we do take 2-3 road trips per year, to Cleveland...

This is exactly what I’m afraid of. I don’t wait to wait too long and suddenly the price goes up 10k and it’s unaffordable for me.
