Good to know. thank you

On the pod, Mike (I think) talked about how he still had his old M3P when he got his new one and compared the two (unscientifically).

I posted several links to threads regarding this in this thread but you'll have to either dig thru my profile or use the search feature. If you're interested in geeking out in more detail, search for "lower" in this thread.

My original point was because they’re still advertising June on the site when we’re halfway through the month and clearly anyone who orders right now will not get their car in June.
I muted him awhile ago. Seems all. He wants to do is troll people. Obviously people on a forum literally named the waiting room are exited and impatient to get their car.
 
Ordered 3/29 pickup 6/6

Pickup was today in West Palm Florida! Happy to report no surprises. As far as I can see the body and paint are perfect and there are no noticeable gaps whatsoever. The white interior is 99% good with the exception of a strange mark on the passenger headrest. (Pic attached) I’m not even sure if I’m going to report it but I think I will as I’m in my 3 day 100 mile window. More curious to see how they handle it than anything. Afraid they’ll do more harm then good. Unfortunately it’s not dirt.

The did a great job prepping it for my arrival. It was super clean inside and out. The car is wonderfully interesting to drive as everyone in here knows. I feel like I went from a iPhone to a android as everything is foreign, but I’m sure I’ll get used to all the functions and the screen as I drive more. It’s going be fun to explore everything I don’t know about the car and sift through the manual.

Coming off BMW M cars I was even taken aback by the acceleration. Literally made me a bit nauseous and I didn’t even put the pedal down all the way. I didn’t hear or feel the road noise or wind noise was anything out of the ordinary as people tend to report here. I didn’t find the ride anymore jarring then my current BMW when I have it in Sport Mode.

I did get my first dose of Tesla hate though 😞. I stopped on the way home to get a coffee and strategically parked in the middle of nowhere only to come back with a car parked right next to me and purposely parked off center so I could barely get in. Of course I was scared of a purposeful door ding but dodged a bullet after checking (pic attached for reference) I came back with a notice of a sentry mode recording but I still haven’t learned how to view it. I did push the notice button to see if anything would happen but it didn’t. So I’ll read the manual to find out if I can view it somehow. There is an “x” by the dashcam icon so I’ll need to read up on that as well.

Overall very pleased especially after having so many concerns going in after being on this site way too much. THANK YOU to everyone in here for such great information and help throughout the waiting process!
Updating this post. They are replacing the entire seat due to the “imperfection” on the passenger headrest. Above and beyond what I was expecting so we’ll see.
