    Thanks it’s actually glossy carbon but it does have a darker tone to it compared to the other carbon bits.

    How bad is this damage to the rocker panel?

    Just get some cheap side skirts and live with it I had a similar damage on my last car, but mine was from being an idiot and jacking it up wrong 🤣

    Selling price 22 M3P?

    Man I hope those Plaids keep dropping I am waiting for the $50-60k range, hopefully in a 2-3 years, then I will upgrade my M3P.

    {Feature Request Model 3/Y] Chill+ would be great. 3rd option needed.

    You guys asking for a Chill+ mode while I am looking for a Sport+ mode to unleash more powaa 🤣

    2024 Hyundai Ioniq 5 N

    True. That's one big downside to me. All these new performance EVs weigh 500+ more lbs. more than a M3P and feel that it's a little piggy already. I might just pick up the new GR86/BRZ manual as a weekend car to fulfill that need.

    Tesla 3 sounds like plane taking off. Normal or not?

    It's going into super saiyan mode!

    2024 Hyundai Ioniq 5 N

    “The Ioniq 5 N will produce 601 horsepower and 545 pound-feet of torque—and it has something called N Grin Boost that raises output to 641 hp.“ MSRP should be around $63k. Anyone else pumped about this performance EV? I haven’t seen any other EV compelling enough to make me want to upgrade...

    Anyone tried the "Active Exhaust" systems?

    Has anyone tried this out? I don't want fake exhaust notes, I prefer the actual motor sound to be amplified in cabin. I feel like it would make the car more engaging! I would obviously turn it off when the wife is in the car 🤣

    Anyone getting bored with their car since there are few performance mods?

    I break my neck every time I see a Taycan, hands down the best looking EV.

    Anyone getting bored with their car since there are few performance mods?

    Simple, buy a weekend fun car, I am choosing between a ND Miata or a 124 Spider, manual of course. Seems like fun to rip around the streets and backroads without breaking too many laws.

    Would you buy another EV?

    This is why I don't miss living in the Bay Area, I moved from San Jose to Sacramento, have SMUD now and pay $0.135/kWh off peak summer rates vs. PG&E at $0.38/kWh off peak summer. That is almost triple! Not to mention the cost of living,

    Looks like Taycan prices are dropping rapidly as well

    Holding onto my 2019 M3P for another 2-3 years, looking to dump it in year 6-7 before warranty expires. I will be deciding between the Plaid S and Taycan Turbo/ Turbo S as my next EV. Heavily leaning towards the Porsche as it is the best looking EV in my eyes. Keep coming down!

    Sweet Spot for Replacing Model 3

    After these price cuts, drive till wheels fall off is my sweet spot

    Traded my M3P for an RS3 - My thoughts on both cars for what it's worth

    Buy a used ND and turbo it, you will be in the 300whp range, more than enough for a lightweight car.

    Traded my M3P for an RS3 - My thoughts on both cars for what it's worth

    I chose between a RS3, Hellcat Charger, and an M3P 2 years ago. I sometimes regret not going with the former 2, but I was looking for a daily driver, road trip car, and given Cali's premium gas prices, I think I made the right choice.

    Effect of wider tires on range

    I saw a drop of 10-15% range switching from stock 18 setup to 265/35/19 Falken FK510 with 19x9 flow forged Verde VFF02s, but it is SO worth it. Car feels way more planted!

    Anyone purchase an ICE after your Model 3?

    I am considering a manual ND Miata, I can't even floor my M3P for a couple seconds without breaking a speed limit, would be nice to go WOT all the time, banging through gears and not worrying about it. Plus it weighs 1700lbs less, would make fun for the twisties!

    Thoughts on the BMW i4 M50?

    All true but the M50's 60-130 beats the M3P by around 1.5 seconds. Hopefully Elon see this and gives a boost up top lol

    Thoughts on the BMW i4 M50?

    With all the recent price increases to the M3P, the difference is very minimal in price especially factoring in the $7500 rebate with the BMW, it would be a tough choice. The thing that kills me is the car weighs over 1000lbs more than a M3P and has a 25% higher energy consumption which will...

    Chill vs Sport in a 3P+

    You probably just have a heavy foot, EVs require more precision on the go pedal than ICE cars as their is no buildup before accelerating, once you get used to the instant throttle response though, it will suck to go back to ICE, my wife's C300 feels antiquated after driving my 3P. All noise and...

    Best speed for road trips?

    Based on Bjorn's video it is 118mph, I would advise you to buy a radar detector if you plan to do this :p

    M3P- metal popping/tapping noise

    I am having a strange popping/tapping metallic sound coming from my passenger/front wheel well on my M3P-. Sound only happens below 10mph, and it is very inconsistent, no pattern. Happens going straight or turning. I don't see anything scraping in that area. I do have coil overs, F/R Eibach...

    Torque and Horsepower upgrade kits on M3P?

    Elon forgot about us M3P owners! Pretty sad that an LR with boost upgrade beats us from a roll. If I didn't get my stealth at the same price as a LR AWD 3 I would be pissed.

    Model 3 Performance feels slow?

    My M3P feels slow after watching those Plaid S videos, can we get another boost upgrade? Paid or free, I need more speed!

    Model S Plaid Performance Thread

    Man, watching these videos makes me feel like a peasant in my M3P. Keep them coming!
  33. Sukhshanti

    Plaid S now $129,990, Plaid X still $119,990, order now if you want one I guess!

    Pre-ordered, shouldn't a Plaid X be $140k since Plaid S is $130k considering the base X costs 10k more than the base S? Hopefully I can afford it by delivery date 😆
  34. Sukhshanti

    What cars are more fun to drive than a M3P?

    I will admit my M3P- stock was not fun or confidence inspiring on any road that wasn't a straight line. However, once I added some wider tires (265s), coil overs, and stiffer sway bars to the mix, hands down, this is the most fun I have ever had in a car period!

    Why are people buying new ICE cars?

    Lack of home charging was my major hurdle. I bought my first home 2 years ago, lived in condos and apartments before that where I would have never considered an EV

    Sold my Tesla yesterday - No Sellers Remorse Yet

    Sorry for your loss? I couldn't fathom a better daily than my M3P, cheaper to own/maintain than a Prius and performance equivalent to a C8 Corvette. That minor issue of wind noise is somewhat annoying at times, but I forget about it as soon as I stomp the GO pedal.

    Model Y Perf or BMW X3M?

    Just sell it! I bought my M3P- about 9 months ago. My 2011 Audi A5 is still sitting on the street in front of my house, battery dead =( I thought I would honestly keep driving it after my M3P- because I thought I would miss my good ol' ICE car. It does have a full suspension and upgraded K04...

    Success with Unplugged Performance Coilover Suspension Kit

The car already feels planted and no body roll on hard turns. I am just trying to figure out if its is worth the...

    2021 Model 3 Performance vs Long Range (rolling)

    Tesla really needs to give M3Ps a performance boost. Kinda BS that the LR AWD wins from a roll. Track mode is great and all but that's not enough to differentiate.
