Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

[SnipeAT]

SA's don't know anything. It's like asking the guy who makes fries at McDonalds when the McRib is coming back.

this is the perfect analogy, it is exactly like this

I didn’t get it for my purchase of my 2023 MYP I bought 12/2022!

thats surprising, people were talking about that in long threads about summon and autopark not being available for quite some time.

Do PPF shops (not wraps, the clear stuff) typically use kits, or do they custom fit and shrink? I'd like to get PPF on day one, but another post on here led me to believe that there might be precut kits involved and of course, they aren't produced for this yet.

A legit company would be using rolls and cutting everything themselves.

I think those are all available now, correct?

Well I don’t “work” for money as I’m lucky enough that my money works for me so I guess I have time to do things like this. Cleaning a car and prepping for ceramic coating is easier than the pros will let you know! I have friends that do it for a living and I know their techniques…you would be floored by how easy and simple it can be if you really know what you are doing. Recently Yvan LaCroix started sharing his secrets on YouTube on detailing vehicles…he’s a Jesus of sorts in the detailing world as he’s worked with all the big companies in the field and is responsible for much of the modern techniques and products used today. Having said that I don’t typically polish a new vehicle when coating as it has absolutely nothing to do with how long the coating lasts. Polishing only makes the paint look better and if I’m already happy with the way the paint looks then it’s a waist of time. I have polished a new black vehicle I bought before but there’s a reason I don’t usually buy black. Then again if it were a show car then I would polish it prior to ceramic coating. My point is you don’t need to polish the paint on a daily driver if you are happy with the way it looks because you won’t make the coating last longer by doing so. Simple as that!

You should stop replying on this topic. No disrespect, but it isn't a good look. And it is disrespectful to the detailers that you call your friends. Do it if you want to. There is no need to rationalize it. Next time just say you like working on your car or something.

Not on vision only model 3s that I am aware of. I don't think it will work on the highland, either

 

[YForMeee]

yes and dont worry.. No Tesla since 2022 has USS only Tesla Vision. Our 24' Y just got the free FSD trial and the only thing lacking is summons

Agree - this is NOT new.

I was on a week long business trip early last year and company rented me a Hertz Tesla, it was a RWD model 3, I remember during that trip the car had a big update that enabled vision park assist, it was kinda buggy at that time but I tried it. Don't know about smart summon

Yeah I think so, but new cars are not delivered with the latest firmware version so I am not surprised at people getting that notification from Tesla.

Auto Park is. Summon and banish still aren't but will be when actually smart summons comes out hopefully this summer.

Park Assist is working. Just no Summon on Vision only cars

Looks like we are doing the same thing. I'm trading in my 20' Y performance white/white for a 24' 3 Performance. Except I went with Red/Black

Is the distance measuring using cameras pretty accurate now? It was all over the place last time I tried it.

 

[jjrandorin]

Thanks for the correction, @Jangy @AJ Henderson

Normally I would agree only a small percentage are performance but with the bizarre factor of only the P model qualifying for the federal rebate right now and therefore it actually costing less than the LR AWD model I don't think there is any way to guess.

It backs into a parking spot decently. It is slow to commit to it, though. But no near misses or anything. I don't use it often because I like to put my car flush to one side of the spot to avoid the other side but summon puts it in the center.
