Best winter vehicle I ever had. Was curious how this would work out as it repalced an Audi A4 Allroad, which is a pretty darn good winter car - but the Model 3 works great in the winter too. Particularlty love that it heats up so fast - a coplue of minutes and the snow just melts off it.

Not that i'm surprised, but traction and stability are much better than I expected. Where the Audi shines is the quattro traction, but I am quite impressed by how the Tesla just isn't bothered and just feels like accelerates slower where the Audi would snake and shift around as the traction control did it's thing. I do notice the regen pulling on the rear wheels sometimes but never had any issues.

Saved the best for last - track mode! At 25/75% this thing will do beautiful sideways laps around a car park and flatters teh driver by making it so easy anyone can do it. A nice big scandinavian flick into fully sideways for as long as you want. I honestly thought my old Audi was pretty much the master of that excercise.

I mean, your AR has half the HP that the M3P does haha. There are good and bad qualities of both Quattro & Tesla. I still have my B8.5 S4 and SQ5 along with the Model 3 dual motor. The benefit of the Tesla is being able to preheat the car in the snow. The drawback of the model 3 would be the decrease in range for colder climates. That being said, I think I would likely take the SQ5 into the mountains here in CA over the Model 3 just because I have more ground clearance despite it being lowered.

I missed the sale but plan on getting the Boost 50 for my 2019 LR AWD the next time it's on sale (hope I don't have to wait until next year's Black Friday sale).

In the meantime, I realize HOW you drive it will affect your efficiency, but does simply having the module installed negatively affect efficiency?

Yes, ground clearance is definitely an issue with a lowered M3P. Even when sticking to roads I do some shoveling for the county at times

Coming from a Subaru STI I too am curious about winter diving. I don't see a ton of it but I looked forward to snow days in the STI. Picking up M3P in a week and winter tires/wheels already waiting.

Well, compared to the STI it's drawback that you need to go into track mode while the Sube is always ready to play. And the sound. Wish I could have kept the soundtrack of the 03 WRX I turned into an OEM+ STI part by part way back when. (obviously cant seem to recall how many gearboxes and engines it went through )

I would love to buy your wheels from you if you are wanting to selling them.

Can you please tell me which aluminum pedal covers those are and/or where you got them from? Thank you so much!

Changed up the badges to gloss black.
Thinking of lowering the car some more and adding sway bars. The wheel gap still bothers me.

3rd day of ownership, first time I’ve seen it in the daylight!

Had ceramic tint done yesterday, 35% ceramic. Rear window is one giant sheet.

Paid $750 which is pretty typical in the Bay Area.
