After reading this forum for probably the last year on a very regular basis, watching hours upon hours of YouTube videos for the past I don't know how long, I finally placed my order for a LR AWD M3 and am working with my SA on a post-June 4 build for the new version that comes with wireless charging and USB-C ports.
Looking at delivery, I know there are countless threads on what to look for and have those bookmarked. One thing I haven't really been able to get a clear idea of is at what point should I decline delivery? I've read some people just saying have Tesla note down the issues at delivery to ensure they're repaired and others saying decline if not up to standard. I, like many others, have not had to think about this sort of thing when getting a car in the past, so I don't know where to draw the line. I asked my SA about the process should I decline delivery and he basically said they'd try to get me a new car and not bother repairing the one attempted delivery on. Not sure if that's true or not.
My next step is to get a NEMA 14-50 outlet installed in my garage but I realized I didn't fully understand a few things about this. One, how long is the charging cord that comes with the car? If I need an extension on that, how would I get one? Also, do most people just keep all the charging equipment (cord/etc) at home and go about their way? I'm trying to picture how I would charge at a non-supercharger if I didn't have the equipment with me.
Finally, looking at accessories and things to buy for the car. Tint is obvious but are most people also tinting the roof? I thought it came with sufficient levels of tinting, but hearing people are still tinting it anyways. I know I need floor mats and think the general consensus is to go with the 3D MAXpider but as they're not available in Canada for 2020 versions yet, I'll need to hold off. PPF seems reasonable but are most doing it on their front bumper only, the whole front end or some other variation? I also need to figure out what to do with USB/SD cards for the teslacam now that I'll be using a USB-C port instead of the old USB-A and see if that changes my options. Any suggestions welcome.
Sorry for the long thread and tons of questions but appreciate the help in advance.
