Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

and she was a billionaire as well, pretty sad

Was she the cousin of Mitch McConnell's wife? I remember that story and she was in a Tesla but wasn't aware of the cause

Have we had a solid draggy run on a warm battery on a 100% SOC on a good road? I might order one on Amazon and have it ready to go. It seems like we don't have solid data yet. Thread moves fast, maybe I missed it.

I have the same feeling somewhat. Loving the white seats (have them for about 4,5 years now in my 2019 M3P), and was planning to order them again in my next config, but the combo with Ultra Red isn't that great as I thought. Like you said, too much going on, and the white seats distract from the awesome Ultra Red exterior. I saw a LR Ultra Red with white interior almost next to a with black interior, and the one with black was the better combo.

Still in doubt sometimes, because the white sport seats are looking great up close. But the door inlays are too big, and if you zoom out and get the Ultra Red in the same view, it makes less sense. I would take the white seats with every other exterior color.

I’m so close to switching this to Black/white ! Argh..from Red/black. I also saw a red LR highland today and it was ‘ok’. Back area was nice but overall it just seemed close to MC red just a bit deeper.

Oh and the red tail lamps also not the same Ultra red colour…normal brake light red. So now we have 3 reds going on…back tails, calipers and the actual Ure!

Black is starting to appeal…meaner aggressive look but also the contrast to white int works

Word of caution for everyone, I had enabled the auto shift out of park option. It was doing well until the one time I didn't look what it picked, I thought it was an obvious "I wanna go forward", but it thought backwards. Tapped the accelerator and was shocked at the backwards motion. It was clear back there, so no damage or anything, but it was an unpleasant shock to move in reverse when I wasn't expecting it!

If you use the feature, double check its choice! For me, switched off. Maybe I'll try again in a few more software updates where they claim to make it smarter.

Just keep an eye on the screen to see if your back up camera kicks on.

Did you try drifting your car yet? I kinda wanna know how drift mode is

Haha, I'm the last person qualified to do that!

If you are even mildly detail oriented - I would advise you to not get black (stick with your red on black order). Tesla's paint isn't great to begin with, and this is a solid black, with no pearl or metallic in it - i.e. its the hardest color to maintain, by far. Ultra red appears to be their highest quality paint, and red is naturally easier to maintain than black.

I will try to answer this again, they put 15 miles on the app to be default just to be safe, most likely your car is going to have less miles than that

Delivery finally happened today! Car is amazing! Delivery took 10 minutes, so simple and never even talked to a Telsa employee.

by this rate we really can get our cars all by end of June!

 

[arkhos]

Spirit twins then! Hah.

There was someone else in here whose screen name started with a "J" who I think was Cali I got confused with. There's not a bad color choice in the lineup, they all do look good.

10000%. This is one of the few cars I've seen where I like -every- color. I have my favorites, like some over others, but even the last color on my list would be suitable if that's all that was available, they're all just that good (in my opinion).

 

[jose3030]

Black/Black is my original order and I can still EDIT my design and pay the old price, apparently.
For red.
But seeing all the posted pics of the Black exterior is making me really want to keep it.
I was considering changing to red because red is ... RED.
But... man, this black. Clean? WOW.

Sad, but thank you for confirming. I have updated your entry in the spreadsheet.

@Starfy100, I see that your entry in the spreadsheet also has "VIN?" to "Yes". Is this accurate or a mistake as well?

Yup that's a mistake, somehow my row got over-written. Still no VINs on either of my orders , entering the first day of a 2 week window

 

[CheddarChiz]

To those who has already taken delivery, do you mind checking the Tesla Store and going to the HomeLink page? Does it tell you if it's compatible with the 2024 model? I asked an SA about this, but he said I would have to check once I take delivery of the vehicle.

Sorry to hear as well yeah, the spreadsheet is a bit of a mess right now.

I guess still no love for PNW. Not sure if they will be assigning VINs tomorrow, but hope next week would be better for us.
