Thanks!Yes, you will pay taxes to your county tag office when you register the vehicle most likely. I would call the tag office and discuss your situation to get an accurate answer.

I either lift or lower all of my cars. I was hoping this one would come with a decent suspension and not need it.Regarding ride height:
It really doesn't matter what we feel has happened or not. Tesla will deliver the car as they make it right now.
If you are the person who lowers most of your cars, you will change the suspension regardless of what Tesla ships it with.
I can't think of anyone who is taking a non-modifed family sedan to an autocross event, but maybe I don't know enough autocross people.
When I got my used 2019 MX-5, I knew I needed to get rid of the horrific fender gap and body roll. I took it into a Mazda dealership for a service appointment right before the bumper-to-bumper warranty was about to run out just to see if anything needed looked at under warranty. Once everything looked good, I ordered the coilovers and had them installed. I knew any future suspension-related repairs would be on me at that point. If you do any kind of performance mod, you have to do it with the knowledge that the manufacturer warranty will most likely no longer apply.
Thanks, I am thinking of going to my credit union and seeing what their rates are before locking in with Tesla. I was gonna just go thru tesla to make it more seemless but it doesnt seem like a big deal turning in a check from my credit union.Currently, U.S. wise best rate is 3.24 from Tesla if approved. You can get as low as 1.99-2.24 at various credit unions (DCU, Affinity, etc) if approved. APRs listed are for 60 month terms.
Even the lowered Performance suspension left a lot to be desired. It was slightly more sporty than the non-Performance trims but was nowhere close to anything like a BMW M3 or similar.I either lift or lower all of my cars. I was hoping this one would come with a decent suspension and not need it.
What is your VIN range?Finally got a call from dealer in Matthew,NC. THE CAR IS HERE!
the fastest we can pick her up is Thursday 12 at 10:30!!!
OD : 02/26 M3P White/Black no FSD
Just something to complain about. Non-issue lolEven the lowered Performance suspension left a lot to be desired. It was slightly more sporty than the non-Performance trims but was nowhere close to anything like a BMW M3 or similar.
Ya, I'm the one over dramatic. Pottle kettle black.
I've seen reports where someone measured his old model 3 and new one (both performance) and they indicated that the chassis height was the same. Where is the evidence that the suspension has been nerfed?
Thanks. That confirms for me that the suspension has changed. I guess if I wanted to stay in Super Street class for autocross I could pick up a used M3P stock suspension. Still psyched to get the car, but too bad they made this change.I don't know if you are familiar with these guys but they are Tesla enthusiasts and know the cars pretty well. They discuss here that they feel the suspension has been changed. Yes it' anecdotal but ...
It's not the people, it's the SCCA rules. Lots of people autocross cars on the stock suspension - Miatas, BMWs, Teslas, Hondas, Subarus... Suspension changes beyond one sway bar bump you to a higher class.Regarding ride height:

Yeah the difference between the two was not that big to make this a huge ride dynamics change if the Performance indeed doesn't come with the lowered suspension anymore.Just something to complain about. Non-issue lol
Unless you’re autocrossing and then it’s a significant issue. I am intending to run this car at Autocross. The car will get killed in super stock without the performance suspension.Yeah the difference between the two was not that big to make this a huge ride dynamics change if the Performance indeed doesn't come with the lowered suspension anymore.
Anyone who cares that much would be pursuing aftermarket suspension anyway.
I'm not familiar with autocross is that some form of rally ? What class do you compete in or what should I be watching on youtube to watch the bestIt's not the people, it's the SCCA rules.

No it's miniature technical tracks made from cones, often favoring nimble cars rather than powerful ones.

Fair enough.Unless you’re autocrossing and then it’s a significant issue. I am intending to run this car at Autocross. The car will get killed in super stock without the performance suspension.

No. Why would I drive the LR? They are in significantly different classes.Fair enough.
Have you tried the LR vs the Performance?
I'm asking if you've tested the real life differences between the suspensions.No. Why would I drive the LR? They are in significantly different classes.
Nope. The SCCA has already determined the P to be the better car. the LR is classed with family cars. The P is classed with sports cars. I’m not even remotely interested in an LR,I'm asking if you've tested the real life differences between the suspensions.
