hope Trump increases import tax on steel and aluminum won’t effect price of model 3.

I don’t care if Tesla increases 1-2 grand as long as they can ship the car to me faster to catch up the rebate

It looks good. Didn’t bother with the wait. It was well out of the store and it was going to be more than 1hr 15min wait.
For barely 2min of examination.
Lots of the people there were reservation holders.
People can’t wait to get their cars.

Yeah I'm going to take a day off work in a couple weeks and head down during the day. Definitely don't have time to waste lining up right now.
I was there around 10:30Am today, not many people, no line waiting. Spend some time in side, turn on the music, sound looks fantastic.
Both me and my DW agreed it worth waiting and worth continuing waiting.
One place the Model 3 is not on display is the Quebec City auto show which opened to the public today. Peculiar decision by Tesla, but consistent with what they did with the X in 2016. Since the QC auto show is only a one-week deal and the 3 was already at the Toronto show, I don't know why they wouldn't prefer the 3 in Quebec City this week. Or, better yet, they could have brought another 3 from the States just for the Quebec event.
January 2016: No X at the Montreal Show.
February 2016: X present at the Toronto show.
March 2016 : No X at the Quebec show.
January 2018: No 3 at the Montreal Show.
February 2016: 3 present at the Toronto show and afterwards at the Yorkdale store.
March 2016 : No 3 at the Quebec show. Nothing at the sole Tesla facility in the province, either.

Another data point: I was there around 3:15 or so this afternoon, with no line. There were a dozen or so people around the car and talking to staff, but no issues checking out the car in detail.
Agreed, it’s worth waiting for.
Interesting thought. They sold the S in Quebec for over five years before offering the option for French, so I don't think a non-French menu in the 3 would be a show-stopper. Besides, I would expect the public wouldn't be able to enter the vehicle at the show.
Wow that died off faster than I thought maybe it's still busy after traditional work times.
Most people there are holding a reserveation, once those all have seen, it will cool down.
Agreed. The car isn't going to pull in people who aren't already interested in seeing it, particularly with it at the back of the store. I'm sure Tesla will do more to promote it in store once they have their backlog down to a small size, but right now, what would the point be? The cars are in stores now for reservation holders to look at.
I popped by Yorkdale first thing yesterday. About 5 people there but I easily got to spend a fair bit of time in the car.
A few thoughts:
- seating a bit tighter than the S laterally (obviously) but more comfortable seats than my Sig S
- screen was frozen and needed to be rebooted to work. Edmunds and others are likely right that they may be rushing these out the door before everything’s ready. Although I’m pretty used to holding the middle buttons once a month, 500k other people probably aren’t....
- the frunk is pretty small, and on observing that one of the Tesla people said it was the dual motor version. Instead of arguing I was surprised that he’d say that since they haven’t made any. Unless of course they are keeping the same size frunk for all and we haven’t noticed that some are AWD. Doubt it.
- everything else is solid about the car. However I’m unsure if I’ll convert the reservation...we'll see final price and rebate situation. I’m fond of my S and with all the part replacements I pretty much have a new car.
