I'll save you a bunch of time - the answer is NO

Paint is holding WELL. Front bumper is flawless still...I'm honestly a bit surprised. I thought Tesla paint is not the greatest but here I am with no PPF and perfect front after thousands of miles.

I should add that I'm at 5100 ft elevation though I didn't think TPMS readings should be affected by that...

2021 Model 3P. In 2021, they switched to the new bluetooth TPMS sensors. I'm noticing the car is reading tire pressures low. On my uberturbines it would show 40psi when the tire pressure was 42. On my brand new set of wheels (with new Tesla TPMS sensors) it reads 40 when the tire pressure is...

Well good news is 4680 is on the horizon for 2022 mass volume. First in the model Y but if we're lucky maybe the model 3 Performance gets it by end of next year along with new motors to take it to the next level. Either late 2022 or 2023 it will. And being structural, these batteries will mean...

I would recommend the new for 2021 Continental DWS06+. They feel like a summer tire when dry (compared to my Pirelli PZeros that my M3P came with) and are quite capable in snow - same or better than Michelin PSAS4. Compared to the Michelin PS4AS they are 2% worse in dry traction but are better...

After a lot of research and 2 months digging into data including LRRs... My choices were down to these: Michelin PSAS4: Best dry traction (2% better than DWS06+), great in snow....louder and harsher than other 2 choices. Michelin CC2: Best snow traction, OK in every other category Continental...

Same. The model S is just too darn big for me. But I love the tech and speed in it. Hopefully they update the M3P in the next year or two.

I have that tire running on my performance on a 19x8.5 set of forged wheels in 240/35/R19 size. Excellent tire. Extremely comfortable too...it's about as quiet as the pirelli summer tires and very close in grip, if not more. As to your question - the diameter of the wheel+tire with 245/35/R20...

A note about the weight - the MPP rotors are only about one pound lighter than stock performance ones. It's not a huge difference so don't expect to be dropping a huge amount.

It doesn't make much sense to apply limits based on acceleration rather than amps or power. I agree there a computer limit but I'd be surprised if it accounts for weight in the car. Please post some data. Do you also get the same acceleration with 1-3 passangers? Do the lightweight wheels...

The model 3P is mighty impressive down low but above 60mph it's performance drops off a ton. Max torque occurs at 40mph. Max horsepower is at 60mph. Above that there's a steep dropoff....it's not much of a performance car at 90+. The new plaid is 50% faster in the lower speeds but gets to be...

Glad to see this fixed - now some of the most consistent performance from an EV in the cold it seems. Fantastic. It seems I can drive mine down to around 40% before it starts to slowly slow down.

I actually sent Manheart a letter and they got back to me. Here is the response. "Thank you for your interest in our Tesla Box. Unfortunately we have to inform you, that the box does not release the Power and we cannot tell you when the problem will be resolved. At the moment we cannot offer...

According to reviews and Michelin specs, the CC2+ has a 10% improvement in LRR over the CC2. No it won't be close to the MXM4...but it's closer-er

Not that I know of. And probably for does it make a difference. The uberturbiness are definitely aerodynamic (evacuation if super heavy). And pzero elects also have a narrower contact patch for a 235-wide tire, that likely affects the LRR a lot.

For sale Light Harmonic model 3 door speakers. These are a direct replacement of the front door speakers and require no modifications. More info here. There's a lot of reviews of these as well. https://www.amazon.com/Light-Harmonic-Specially-Engineered-Specifically/dp/B08QV4WYZZ?th=1 Condition...

You can find the times in the Model S section of the forum. But regardless, I took this a bit off topic and I'm sorry. Let's get back on topic. I hope we get another software update for 2021 refreshed model 3s with a tad more power. Or an unlock option. I also hope a refreshed M3P comes this or...

The base model S 0-60 is a true 0-60....and not rollout numbers. It's ~0.1-0.2s faster to 60 and it runs high 10s quarter mile which is quite a bit faster than M3P Sure it costs 33K MORE but I'd make the argument you get WAY MORE VALUE FOR THE MONEY than the current M3P. It gets ~25% more range...

Ok guys - you're right. I never said the M3P is slow. It's still faster than most. That's not my argument. But it hasn't gotten much faster in 4 years. The M3 LR got the AB which brings it much closer to a M3P. You can say the LR got a lot faster with that update and the dual 5% software...

The 2022 BMW M3 X-drive actually does a 3.0 0-60 - The 2022 Audi RS3 (yes the RS line is more of a competitor than the regular S) is in the mid-high 3s Mercedes' AMG coupe is now in the 3s as well. All of these can be modified to go faster still. The M3P does 3.1 (with rollout) and cannot be...

I mean I have a brand new performance 3....and years ago pretty much nothing came close and that was one of the reasons I wanted one. Now I finally could afford it....lots of cars come close, some are faster. It's still better than anything. But the gap has shrunk considerably. The fact it...

Bummer....Tesla is dragging their feet at this point. 3.3ish 0-60 was fast in 2016 with the reveal of the 3.... In 20201? It's "quick" but the industry has caught on a lot. The model 3 PERFORMANCE is now slower than non-performance ones like the new S...and likely new X. Not to mention some gas...

Sadly same issue after tint. Dried to yellow streaks though at least the tint is good. The best way to clean it is to take it apart and clean it. It's a BITCH to take apart since the entire rear of the car basically has to come apart to get there. I actually ordered a whole new set of Light...

Compared to the 20'' OEM M3P wheels, the 18'' EV01 OR aero wheels will provide around 15-20 more miles assuming SAME tires as the 20''. The aero wheels are not compatible with the M3P though, EV01 are. Efficiency of 18'' EV01 wheels vs 18'' Tesla aero OEM wheels is the same. There was an...

Just got a new M3P and seeing similar numbers. Efficiency is rather poor in real driving situations vs EPA ratings. Short trips when it's really hot outside (95F or higher) causes the AC to run full blast. By the time the car cools down, you park since it's a short trip. Do that a bunch of...

On a 2021 Performance 3 I routinely get 350kW/mile when it's 95F outside AND I do short trips of 3-5 miles. That's normal driving mind you and it's high mainly because short trips means the AC spends the whole trip trying to cool down the car on nearly full blast but then the trip is over. With...

6. Yes - gains CAN be made for both range and acceleration. The Performance 3 with it's 20-inch ankle weights can gain ~0.1s 0-60 when you switch to a fully forged wheels. However, usually this comes with a penalty on range as MOST lightweight forged wheels are not aerodynamic (stock wheels...

The Michelin Pilot Sport 4 (non-S) is a better tire if you're looking for efficiency as it has a lower rolling resistance than both the PS4S and the Pirelli P-Zero that come with the performance now. You will still retain MOST of the driving feel and stopping distance. No clue about noise or...

Still available?

Yeah, these in a 19x85 would be great...

I take that back...you also have to unplug the side mirrors...

Had the same issue with not being able to see at night after tint. Unplugged the rearview mirror per video here and now all mirrors do not dim anymore. Excellent. Removing that trim piece was a bitch...took me half an hour and 3 destroyed plastic cards but it came off. You do not need to...

The Michelin Pilot Sport EVs are a summer tire...

What is the first and second 5% bumps in that data? I thought there was only a single 5% performance boost that came via a software update for the 3 Performance.
