    ISO: AutoX video of M3P vs. Corvette Z06

    A few weeks ago somebody posted a video of an M3P and Z06 on an auto-x course, where the video was edited to show both runs concurrently. However, I can't seem to find the thread where it was posted in. Maybe I'm using the wrong search keywords, or searching in the wrong place? Can anybody point...

    P100D+ may have just cracked a 7:23 on the Nurg

    Model X vs. Wrong-way driver

    Just saw this pop up on my news feed, hopefully it's not a repost. I believe that's a Model X that a wrong-way driver collided with. Fortunately the Model X driver sustained only minor injuries, though the other driver didn't fare as well :( Amazing how well the X held up, considering the...

    Tesla Meme

    Got bored at lunch and just made this one. My apologies, if this is in the wrong section -- I wasn't quite sure where to put it.

    Will the Mod3 PXXD be quicker than the S?

    Just eyeballing the cut-away images from the Mod3 reveal event, it looks like they're using the smaller front motor out of the Model S (indeed, as Elon had mentioned multiple times prior). So just throwing some numbers around in my head, if this smaller motor is the next iteration of the Model...

    Must-have Aftermarket Accessories

    I'm planning on a few accessories to add immediately after taking delivery, though I'm wondering if there are any others that I should add to my list. So far: Clear bra of some sort. Front fascia, leading edge of hood, headlights, side-view mirrors. Window tint Optimum Opticoat (any other...

    Who is going to be "that guy" camping out on March 30th?

    I've always chuckled at those hardcore deal-seekers who camp out for Black Friday, but I admit that when it comes to queuing up overnight for the Model 3 pre-order date I've given the idea more than a brief moment of thought -- probably far more than I should have. Anybody else thinking about...

    Model 3 Electric Motor

    As I understand it the Model 3 will employ the front motor found in the D versions of the Model S. Does anybody know how much power potential this motor actually has? I remember reading that the front motor is a lot more efficient than the older rear motor, and I strongly suspect (if from...

    0-100kph (~62mph) in a scant 1.779 seconds! This thing scoots.

    Possible Model 3 test mule sighting?

    I saw this posted on my FB timeline: IMHO I doubt it. It looks like there are some exhaust cut outs at the rear, but that could be just to throw people off (?). What do you all think?

    Was anybody able to order a P85 with the 470hp motor?

    I'm sure everybody knows that shortly after the P85D announcement there was a brief window of time (maybe just a few weeks?) where the RWD P85 was still available, but the motor was listed at 470hp. I'm just curious whether anybody was able to order one of these, and more importantly are they...

    What are those flaps ahead of the front wheels?

    Hopefully R&T allows hotlinking. If not, just click the link and you'll see what I'm talking about. I see a lot of newer cars come with these rubber'ish flaps ahead of the front tires. Anybody know what these are for?

    Tesla Model 3 P+ vs BMW M3?

    Ok, so it's been established that the Model III's target is the BMW 3 series. But that begs the interesting scenario of the extreme upper end of each respective model: The P+ and "M" variants of each line. If the P+ is to match or exceed the performance of the M3/M4 (which can hit an 11 second...

    Off-Road Ability of Model X?

    I'm really excited about an all-electric SUV because of the available torque anywhere in the motors operating range. But I'm curious about this ute's off-road capabilities. Are there specs available for ground clearance, approach/exit/break-over angles?

    Aftermarket modified motors?

    Anybody hear anything about aftermarket modified electric replacement motors for any of the Tesla cars yet?
