I've thought this from the day they released it and no full reviews were available (still aren't). And as soon as rivet-gate happened on the CT, I thought... they probably don't want another release glitch like that. It must be something that's holding them up even if it's unlocking a little more power or something. It could even be something silly like a child seat latch position or something (as happened I think in Australia). Just dotting their i's and crossing their t's. They must be close given the EDDs we are getting.

That's just it. These "demos" seem to be "look but don't touch" garage queens that you're not allowed to drive. One or two SC's might have let one go out for a test drive but I bet afterward... someone got fired!
Not a fan of either colour as I think white is the best
But I would go red.
Agreed. It's also a waste of power that could be used for literally anything else.

2021 MYP+ 2023 M3LR + 2024 M3P in Grey + Whife
Am I showing my old man tendencies when I tell the board that I purchased tire chocks that I plan to keep in the trunk so that my wheels will never get closer than 10 inches from any curb?Can’t wait to curb those wheels

Mine's going to the track.
Let's talk discount numbers! I'm game. I've had 2 "miles but first title" vehicles of the Model S variety and well worth it.
I don't know, I'm the earliest pre-order according to the current spreadsheet and I know enough people who were earlier than me that I highly doubt the tracker has 1/16 of the total orders so far. Looking at the sales numbers from 2023 is also misleading because a lot of us have been waiting since 2023 for this thing. In 23, the Highland had already come out globally and people didn't want to buy an already outdated car. I've personally been waiting since October for the M3P.
Also, anyone that followed the market at all knew to expect the M3P would be discount eligible, so I suspect a fair number of people that wouldn't normally get a performance trim waited for the discount. It's a lot easier to sell someone on a performance trim when it's cheaper than the LR model.
Finally made an account after lurking for weeks lol. Wanted to point out that one of the first demo M3Ps (in Santa Monica) is ultra red / black interior. Hopefully that means my stealth gray / black EDD is accurate
Those are the original demos. All of them were black. Initially, the black interior was to launch first since all Highland white interiors have been on backorder. The last week, everything changed as new VINs and new sightings are ALL of white interior. It now seems that the highland white interior MP3 is going first.Finally made an account after lurking for weeks lol.

This will be a software update similar to the performance boost we saw. My bet.To make it actually Ludicrous
The new M3 doesn't have a module, it has MYQ. I like it better, having both. No need to swap it.
I saw that but Carlsbad doesn't have that kind of a parking lot. The building is in the center and there is a single row of spots around the building. Thiis picture is either a satellite lot or a different Center. I am going to go check out Miramar today. I'll go back to Carlsbad tomorrow and ask but last night they said they were expecting a White on White next week as their demo. It would be sweet if these two were for local delivery. I just want to check the seats out
I just absolutely refuse to pay Chamberlain to use my own network with my own hardware to do something that costs them absolutely nothing and only does stuff they previously promised me I could do with my door. Trying to now charge me $30 a year is profiteering BS and I don't care what it costs, my next garage door opener will not be made by Chamberlain/Liftmaster. I was a MyQ early adopter and instead they've now lost a customer. No way I'm paying more for 10 years of MyQ than I pay for my garage door opener in the first place. It's insulting.
In addition to that, it didn't even work reliably for me in the trial.
Not to nit pick, but maintaining servers to operate a cloud based service does indeed cost money. The opener is just a universal device that sends a signal, it's not a garage door opener. Without it, you can just carry your garage door opener in the car. It's pretty handy really, I like that I can also open with my phone for neighbors etc. Amazon link: https://a.co/d/0jvAHVU
