Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

[CHB12312]

Neither of us. We're both going to get our VINs. Stay positive.

Appreciate the optimism, but after seeing how things have went this past week, the odds are definitely not in our favor lol. I am just going to hold onto my 6/20-6/30 EDD hope until the EDD powers that be take it away and replace it with August.

Ceramic? That should help a little

Maybe from stains but not indentations from installation of car seats. I’ve used the so called seat protectors for car seats and they help only a little. I did torque my kid’s car seats down to no jiggle whatsoever! I guess car seats are considered installed correctly even with a bit of wiggle room to them…read the owners manual for your car seats to confirm just don’t take my word for it!

Taking delivery tomorrow at 3pm - Mechanicsburg, PA Tesla location.
Ordered 4/23. Gray w/white interior

I have a set of 19" T-Sportline 19" wheels/tires that i use as my winters... I'm going to try and see if they will fit on this. They worked great on my 2020 M3 Long Range.

The 19s should fit BUT please post pics after you mount them

Does this brake pedal position seem correct? Going back and forth between my now sold '18 M3 and my new M3P it seems the brake pedal is slightly misaligned and too close to the accelerator pedal. I measured 5 1/4" between the center "tunnel" and the brake pedal which barely leaves room for my 4 3/4" wide shoe to fit. Unfortunately I failed to also measure the distance in my old M3 before I sold it but it never felt this tight. I'm leaving for a camping trip so I don't have time to visit a dealer that has a M3P to measure and compare.

Could someone with a new M3P check their brake pedal position and let me know if I'm just being paranoid?

Other than this issue I'm thoroughly loving my new "hot rod" M3P! Many thanks.

Mine is also 5.25” from the center tunnel. I thought it was tight too with my size 14 shoe. Definitely more narrow than my 2023 MYP I was previously driving daily. A few days in and I don’t really notice it all that much. Some shoes are better than others!

Excited to see what the drone captures on Thursday from Mr Freemont drone man

Funny I saw a beautiful Audi RS5 that I was thinking of just going for instead!

Big mistake if you ask me!!!

 

[cptnslo]

Big mistake if you ask me!!!

Especially when he eventually lines up against a M3P in the wild and gets smoked lol

Does anyone for sure drones Fremont regularly ?

I remember when the M3P was first announced and we had a few users who waited 5 months+ for their SR/LR highlands I thought to myself “man, that’s really unfortunate”.

Well that looks like it might happen to some of us. It looks like July will be the month of the Model Y. Then August/September for M3P

I ordered my first Model 3 on April 30th, 2016. It was delivered September 22, 2018. Totally worth the wait.

I'm guessing that T-Sportline will start categorizing their wheels/tires on their site as compatible with the 2024 M3P.

It seems like he does one every week.

It looks like March LR orders are still pending. This further leads to my suspicion that Elon hired a monkey that pulls orders out of a hat all day.

I hope the new highland APR incentive will help pump out our M3Ps or it will worsen it

I'm hoping we are in the exact same batch/delivery. 4/27 order (also Phoenix)- SG/White. My dates were 6/18 to 6/30 and moved in to 6/13 to 6/27 on Saturday. I'm assuming that since the dates moved in, they won't move back out again, unless they're trying to be sadistic. Are you also set to pickup at Raintree in N. Scottsdale?

Also in Phoenix. Blue/White ordered 5/30. Currently showing 6/22-6/30 (original EDD was 6/12-6/22). My delivery location currently shows my home address for whatever reason, but I'm about halfway between both Raintree and Glendale locations. Fingers crossed.

Prior trade submission expired (submitted 4/23).
Re-submitted trade like a few weeks ago.
Just now did they respond w/ like 3500 less than the previous trade offer.
Oh boy.

Yep mine went down by 2k. I have a feeling they are going to do it every month.

Up until last night, I was major stressed out while waiting through 9 EDD changes. I was starting to consider: This is dumb. I have a beautiful 2022 M3P with FSD, all paid for, tinted windows, PPF on the front, ceramic coated +++++. Why go through all this.?? I'm 82 and sure don't need this.

But all of a sudden within two days, all's done and will be finished in 2 1/2 hours.

I'm no longer stressed. My heart beat has slowed down but probably pick back up when I hit the Tesla service center

Hold up, your car looks awesome, getting baby shark vibes but my fav part is the tinted headlights, I want to tint my headlights on my m3p to purple but no idea how or where to start looking

 

[ATAG (ATAG)]

Same. Ordered 4/23 Midwest state. EDD 6/20-6/30. Each time I refresh I am completely expecting it to move out to July-Aug but it hasn’t yet. I almost wish it’d would just change and get it over with lol

We are getting like 2 VINs a day. At this rate, unless you’re in CA, a lot of us won’t be seeing delivery for a while.

no way didnt realize it was this bad, i was without a car since January, thankfully took delivery at the end of May but man, I dont think I would have survived even another month, cant imagine 2 more

My wife heard the same noise from mine when I was backing out of our drive while she stood next to the car the other day. I heard it today myself in the drive-thru at Wendy’s getting my frosty after I ditched the kids for a quick “drive”. So you’re not crazy brother!

WE need to ge to the bottom of this, I wonder if the plastic just needs to "break in" a little bit. Maybe the tolerance is really tight and just needs to loosen up

 

[ATAG (ATAG)]

Just adding some more pics for those who are looking to tint. All ceramic 45% windshield and 20% windows. First time I did my windshield and I'll never go back to not tinted. Edit: Thoughts on tinting my headlights too? or is that unnecessary
