Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

[bavenda]

Regarding the aero wheel inserts, I will be using Gyeon Rim ceramic coating on my wheels so if I ever decide to put my aero inserts back on, the wheel should be better protected. I've used it on my 2018 M3 19" inch wheels and the wheels remain much cleaner than without the coating.

Just got VIN! EDD still hasn’t changed from July 27 - Aug 31. Blue/White. Michigan

You need to decide because the longer you leave them on while driving the more you subject the wheel finish to scratching.

Good point! I think I'm going to head over to Discount Tire (my buddy is the location Mgr.) and have them dismount and remove the blades from the rear, as suggested above, to see how it goes. If the residue comes off, then cool. If not, then I can a) place a service request and see if they will replace (doubtful), b) put them back on. :-0

Looks like there are some movements on the Bay Area deliveries. Just got an update EDD of June 24 - June 30 from late July to late August.
White/White ordered on 5/17.

My date went from Aug 16-Sep 27 to July 2-July 30. Stoked!

I don't know about y'all, but I actually like the aero covers on the wheels...

Agreed, wheels without the aero covers look weird imo. Brake discs way too small to have no aero covers

The saga is finally coming to a close soon. Vin has finally arrived on my sg/black order in NY from 45 minutes after orders went live. Sadly delivery is not until July 10-19 currently.

Congrats. Hope that means my VIN is coming soon. Same order as yours maybe just a little after

I think the front looks great open, but the rear calipers are a bit small to be exposed.

It wasn't me. Odd that someone would take an ICE out if they have a P. It'd be pretty boring. Probably more laps though.

I got a hot brake warning first, and I can't remember what the rear motor did. I'm pretty upset about it. I lost that telemetry. I tried to zoom in on the original video and no luck. My 2020 mostly had battery heating issues, never the motor and this battery never had a problem, but I didn't push it to the max either.

I had the factory brake rotors and the track pads on the 20, never any brake fade. The factory rotors are bimetal units which are thousands of dollars if you try to aftermarket it. It's mostly pads and fluid, and this comes with the track pads so I just need to change the fluid out when I go back out in August.

Good info, thanks!

Ok, what are you guys driving that have brake discs that are the size of the wheel in the rear? You don't need a large rear disc, all of the stopping power is in the front, the rear will just lock up.

Congrats homes!

Yessirr haha car is super fun to drive
I do have one noticeable panel alignment between right rear fascia and quarter panel
Plus there was this weird rattling when I was driving but I couldn’t find where it was then it disappeared ahha
Welp service appointment I go

Anyone on here living in Belmar in Lakewood CO? Saw a gray new M3P leaving the complex next to where I live with temp plates and curious if they’re on here lol

Your VIN is imminent. Same thing happened to me, had the ability to set delivery appointment with no VIN, then I got the VIN the next day.

Strange... In the app, the delivery date was just changed to 6/25 from 6/24. They even sent me a calendar invite for 6/24.

 

[nonvinp3d]

Got my delivery rescheduled to 6/25 at Stockton. Gonna set up financing tomorrow, hopefully no delays in getting the check. It's going down on Tuesday!! Lol

Part of me wants to go to the SC and look at the car right now! Kinda wack that I wouldn't be able to drive her home though.

I wish mine was the 24th, my date conflicts with my home charger install and the city permit guy coming by ugh.
