Issues that he had with the car, or just things I noticed?
Thanks, @gene very interesting. I love these 'man on the street' kind of reviews by previous owners. Does your new model 3 have 18" or 19" wheels? I wonder if the stiff ride some people are reporting is a function of the wheel size.But, the Model S is smoother riding even with coil springs on the S. ..............My plan? Sell my 2013 Model S, drive the 3 for awhile and if/when a refreshed becomes available with a clean interior like the Model 3, I'll sell the Model 3 and get a new Model S........................... It is AMAZING!!! Once these are available for test drives, it's going to have a wait list of not 400,000 but 1,000,000. Every last Lexus, BMW, Toyota,.....etc...etc... is a dinosaur compared to the Model 3. This car will turn the world upside down.
I agree. And it will be the "Oh, by the way" part of the Model Y reveal.Thanks, @gene very interesting. I love these 'man on the street' kind of reviews by previous owners.

i think Elon realizes that once people can drive a model 3, the floodgates will open and MS/X sales will suffer. Consequently, in my opinion, a refresh of the MS/X with the model 3 type interior (but with an integrated U.I. screen and HUD) and 400+ mile range is just around the corner, probably by summer. That scenario might even entice me! These are truly exciting times! We are not only witnessing history, but participating in it, warts and all!
Jalopnik lists problems of his road trip so far.
1. Air bag light. 2. Tire pressure sensor. 3. Charging lid. 4. Wipers knock. 5. Music system noises. 6. Service response malfunction. 7. Loud pop in back and warning light. 8. 12v plug not working. 9. Low quality wiper blades leaving strikes. 10. Time zone recognition. 11. Mistakes in charging rates calculation. And low quality “upgraded” music system.

I have the 18” wheels. Experience has taught me that coil springs will soften up a bit with time. I don’t think there is much osborne effect of the 3 on the S. The S does look way better and the S feels more luxury like by a fair margin. I laid awake last night and pretty much decided I’ll sell my FLAWLESS 2013 Model s with 20k miles left on 100k warranty. It is dolphin grey S85. I’ll keep this Model 3 until a refresh Model S comes and then buy a new S.Thanks, @gene very interesting. I love these 'man on the street' kind of reviews by previous owners.

My mini review. Received my Model 3 this afternoon in Marina Del Rey. I have 85 miles on it. Mind you that I have been driving a $95,000 Model S the last 5 years. Model 3 beats the Model S on handling hands down. In the corners this car sticks like glue! Model 3 interior makes the Model S look like so old battleship.
When I remind myself that the Model 3 is a $35,000 to $50,000 car, nothing, I mean nothing touches this car. It is AMAZING!!!

It is white. I will be at the El Capitan State Park exit, meeting someone to hand off some merchandise at exactly 4 pm today. Just in case you want to see it.Thanks for the review. Sounds like exactly what we want.
Now there will be at least one Model 3 in Santa Barbara to look out for, since I have yet to see one.
What color should I look for?

We Hitched A Ride With The Tesla Model 3 Road Trip
I met up with the Tesla Model 3 Road Trip and drove their car. I wrote about how that went for InsideEVs.
