    Spoiler adhesive part#?

    I got some 3M automotive adhesive, but I wonder if the adhesive strip that comes with the spoiler has its own part number and if I can order it. It would make the re-install a little easier. Any ideas?

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room [2020-2023]

    Got my $100 check from GiveMeTheVin for not being able to beat my written Carmax offer :)

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room [2020-2023]

    @SkepTeach, the DMV replied back and told me the trade-in and purchase has to be the same transaction to get the sales tax credit. That's what I assumed all along, but it didn't hurt to ask ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    Model 3 Road Noise

    If you carry a backpack in the bottom of the trunk along with some other smaller items, would that take care of that enclosure - or would the foam board do more if still added?

    Pre-Pay Payments with Tesla Finance?

    I know this thread is now ancient, but I can confirm that this works with a Tesla originated loan serviced by US Bank as well. I've been making larger payments. Every time I accumulate enough to hit my loan payment amount, my next due date is pushed out one month. My next due date is now March...

    Downloading music (Tidal)

    Does anyone know if queued downloads will start when it connects to wifi, even if I am no longer in the car? Also, when I download a Tidal 'my mix', will it download updates to the automated Playlist?

    Spoiler coming loose; what 3M tape to get?

    Would you buy again FSD today?

    I think it still brakes by default. It just won't continue Well, if you order now you'll get the HW4 w/ Ryzen chip so that might help. Good luck with the sale. It's a good time to sell though, so you have that going for you. 👍

    Would you buy again FSD today?

    I think it still brakes by default. It just won't continue after stopping.

    Would you buy again FSD today?

    I've actually read posts from folks that claim you can. That once your vin is enrolled you can get it (back) anytime you enable the subscription. 🤷‍♂️

    Would you buy again FSD today?

    That's pretty much the same conclusion I've arrived at too. IF I even go ahead with this swap.

    Spoiler coming loose; what 3M tape to get?

    My spoiler is loosening up at the edges. I had it custom wrapped, so I don't want Tesla to just come and replace it. I'd rather take it off, clean it up and mount it myself. What 3M automotive tape do I need to get for this? I found mounting "foam tape", "molding tape", and "attachment tape".

    Would you buy again FSD today?

    Thanks. I've only ever driven with FSD so I went off (bad) memory. Quick question: with AP and no automatic lane change, I assume it also won't take on-ramps and exits by itself? You're right as far as EAP is concerned. The auto lane change is the only value there for sure. I believe I've...

    Can you order a Model 3 Performance without Uberturbine wheels?

    I'm with you. I ordered a Performance 3 and I don't like the looks of the uberturbines either. I wish I could swap my 2020 tires with the uberturbines and THEN sell it. But that's logistically not possible :( I keep thinking maybe they'll grow on me. Maybe? I also just put brand new $1,600 tires...

    Would you buy again FSD today?

    Basic AP isn't available anymore though, right? Wasn't that an early product? I thought all cars now ship with TACC (basically just dynamic cruise control). If you want to stay in your lane you need EAP now, or so I thought.
  18. S

    Is it possible to leave FSD beta and return?

    It's an operating system issue. The drive doesn't get mounted properly, which causes failures for reads and writes. I'm struggling with this almost daily as well. The easiest thing to do is to unplug and reinsert your drive after a second. Dash and Sentry will become available again. I don't...

    Are you planning to own post-warranty?

    Yeah. The new payment would be roughly $50 or so more per month. Just a list I came up with, probably not compete: 2400 sales tax 2k for ppf 750 or so for tinting Ceramic coating (don't remember) New mats everywhere Higher insurance premiums Higher property tax annually Not a...

    Are you planning to own post-warranty?

    My 2020 Model 3 Performance is close to running out of basic warranty. Did you sell before you went over? Were you worried but kept it? How did it go? I can get an equally equipped new Tesla for basically the same loan payment.

    Would you buy again FSD today?

    Trust me, I've thought about it. Maybe those rims will grow on me 😁 I'll give myself a few more days. My carvana offer is valid for almost two more weeks. Waiting on them right now anyway.
  22. S

    Would you buy again FSD today?

    I mean, sure. I kept my Tacoma for 10 years until some dumbass kid rear ended and totaled it. I don't expect to keep my Tesla for 10 years, but I wonder if freaking out about the 50k mile warranty is really warranted.
  23. S

    Would you buy again FSD today?

    And I've been thinking about that too. I think I'll just keep my car and cancel my order. My car has everything I need, including FSD (even beta!). If I get a new car, the payment would stay the same, but I'd roughly still have to spend: $2400 in sales tax 2k for PPF $600 - 800 for tint (going...

    Would you buy again FSD today?

    Yeah that's still weird. I know this allows Tesla to keep all the leases on their balance sheet as assets, but why in the world would they want that? 🤷‍♂️

    I think I just talked myself out of selling my Tesla 😂

    Would you buy again FSD today?

    I should have mentioned that while I can get 50k for my car, I still owe 25k. So only half would be available for the down-payment. I guess what I really need to figure out is if I need to get rid of my car before the warranty expires just because I can, penalty free (meaning my monthly payment...

    Would you buy again FSD today?

    EAP would be fine. That's why I changed my build from FSD back to EAP.

    Would you buy again FSD today?

    Y'all are echoing many of my thoughts and concerns. The only reason I'm even thinking of selling my car is because I can get $50k for it, I'm 2k miles from running out of basic warranty, and an equivalent new car w/ FSD would be the same monthly payment for me. Honest question: all things...

    Would you buy again FSD today?

    I'm getting ready to sell my Model 3 Performance w/ FSD (beta, even). I took delivery in late 2020. I paid 6k for FSD. My current order is due probably November. I'm not so sure if I'll spend $12k on what I've been driving with for almost this entire calendar year. It's just not worth it. I...

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room [2020-2023]

    I'm not even using CarMax. Carvana was 2.5k more for me. They told me they'll let me know if they can get me more money or send me the $100 🤷‍♂️ 😁

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room [2020-2023]

    Well look at this! Let's see if GetMeTheVin will own up to this promise. Their offer is $2k less than my valid CarMax offer. I emailed them a photo of it. $100 ftw 😁

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room [2020-2023]

    @SkepTeach : Tesla replied back that they're only willing to adjust the taxes if I trade in with them, and they only accept trade-ins on the same day as delivery of the new vehicle. Waiting on the DMV. 🤞

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room [2020-2023]

    I mentioned my highest offer and then also mentioned that I just put 4 brand new tires on this car about 2k miles ago. That's $1,600 I'll never get back. We'll see where this lands. I'm already almost done with the Carvana document process ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room [2020-2023]

    I got quotes from Carmax (in person), Vroom and Driveway and Carvana. Carvana was the highest. I just submitted GiveMeTheVin and their offer was the lowest by $2,500. I guess it's either a locality thing or the market has adjusted.

    Replacing 2022 Performance uberturbine wheels

    Those are the rims I have on my 2020 Performance. I like them a lot. They're also easy to fix. I wonder how much Carvana will reduce my offer by if I decide to keep the wheels lol. They do have practically brand new tires on them too 😞

    Replacing 2022 Performance uberturbine wheels

    It's mainly because I'm not sure about the looks. But ride quality (more rubber) and energy use (less weight) both play into it. I've driven my 2020 Performance for 2 years now, and it could be a little less stiff. That said, I did read somewhere that the current Performance 3s aren't as low as...

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room [2020-2023]

    You actually made me ask our NC DMV that administers and collects this vehicle tax if I can offset the price if I don't trade in at the time of the sale, and ask if I can request a refund for the difference. I expect it will take a few days for them to get back to me. Maybe you just saved me...

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room [2020-2023]

    Afaik it has to be done as a trade in at the time of the sale. But I'm not 100% sure.

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room [2020-2023]

    Hi, what's up. I'm back in the waiting room. Ordered a red Performance to replace my 2020 MSM Performance. Estimated delivery mid Oct through end of November. Have a Carvana offer ready, but waiting on a Tesla offer. If it's close enough I take it. In NC you can offset the new vehicle...

    Waiting for trade in value

    How long did it take you to get a trade in value for your Tesla? I submitted my existing Tesla as part of my new order. Took pics and sent it in. It's been a couple of days now, but I'm an impatient bastard 🤷‍♂️😁 ETA: Interesting. They seemed to have pulled the existing balance of my current...

    What Did You Do With Your 20” Uberturbines?

    I'm in the same boat, and considering selling mine too when I get my Performance somewhere in Oct/Nov. I assume folks just sell the rims after they swap the tires to whatever new set they bought? Or are sets with tires usually what ends up behind sold? I don't particularly care for the...

    Replacing 2022 Performance uberturbine wheels

    What is the weight, offset and bolt pattern I need to look for to replace the wheels that will come on my 2022 Performance? I'm not a fan of the uberturbine look and am looking for alternatives. However, I've never actually replaced wheels before so I want to make sure I get something that fits...

    What do you think of the uberturbine wheels on the M3P?

    Perhaps. Do you have any favs? I'm really looking for some gallery pics perhaps. Haven't searched yet. Doing the lazy internet thing, where I ask for everything first before putting in any effort :)

    What do you think of the uberturbine wheels on the M3P?

    Looking for reviews got me here, so let me resuscitate the thread. I just ordered a new M3P. My current one has the 2020 20" low profile tires. The look better than the turbine wheels, but even with those I got to know my local rim fix guy pretty well during my two years. Even got my own rate...

    Credit Unions with good rates that accept applicants anywhere within the US?

    Since all offers are similar for me, I have to assume there is a mild market correction going on for second hand Teslas, or perhaps it's a regional thing. I'm in NC. 🤷‍♂️
