New Model 3 Performance news

Was thinking about replacing chrome badging with black on the M3P. What are the options, do the badges get replaced, or are there covers that clip on existing badges?

Also looking for the same and can’t seem to find. Had black clip on ones for my wife’s model Y. They’re awesome

I replaced the badges on my current M3LR with black ones. I just ordered black badges from AliExpress, took off the chrome ones and stuck the black ones on. Easy to do and they have stayed on for the two years I’ve had the car. The other option is to PlastiDip the existing ones. Just look that up on YouTube. Plenty of videos telling you how to do it.

Well this confirms it. They’re here and offloaded in BNE. My VIN appears under the RAV search. Awesome

Mine also is on the RAV.

It is interesting that they rate it at 461kw on government paperwork, although that's just the maximum motor power, not the battery power.

Pretty exciting for all you M3P owners!
Please drive safely and if you DO use any spurts, don't piss anyone off!!
We want to avoid any Tesla hate, so we can all continue to FLY (but under the radar)

Aussie review, 3.16s 0-100 km/h. The review came across as fair and balanced.

My only gripe and this is a pattern forming now across a few reviewers.

Reviewers want it to be more playful at the limits but don't use the very mode that allows this.

When they review say a M Car, they don't just ignore the M mode that makes it playful, they engage the RWD only modes, they drive it in a playful manner. It's not a HUGE deal, but it is a bit odd.

Would love to see an official 1/4 mile time for the LG battery version of the model 3 Performance.
Has there been an official time done as of yet ?

Same here. Seems a shipment issue rather then to do with your individual car.

I reckon it will be very close to 2 July unless the Turandot is delayed getting into port. It is about to leave Port Kembla now so should be offloaded by Monday, plus about 7 days to delivery that appears to be happening in Brisbane and Sydney. Having said that, it doesn't yet show on Melbourne port schedule but there are boats on it which haven't left Pt Kembla until later today....that can change though
