    Why did you cancel your Model 3 reservation?

    I cancelled mine unwillingly but our financial situation is not prepared for a +40.000 eur car (VAT included). Furthermore, we needed a second car so I decided to cancel my reservation and get a second-hand Mitsubishi I-Miev. Maybe in 5-6 years, there is a second hand Model 3 that I can afford...

    -What will be the 1st song you play in your Model 3-

    I Would say Do or die from Thirty Seconds to Mars with Afrojack:

    MyTesla Image with Vairous Paint Colours

    Exactly my favourite colours! I think Titanium stands better against dirt and I'm not a "clean your car everyday" guy so... The blue looks awesome when it's clean though :-), tough choice If I cannot afford the extra cost of the paint, I would go solid white.

    Model S/X Owners Have Priority Model 3 Orders Over Non-Owners

    I totally agree and I think the tax incentive may be extended more than initially planned. Something like creating a 'pool' with all the remaining cars granted with the tax incentive from all the OEM's once the first one hits 200.000 EV's sold so any automaker can 'use' them. I know, more...

    Tesla Model 3 KW packs and specs ?

    50 and 70, Model S/X by then will have 90 and 110.

    Model 3 reservations ($1000 down) will be accepted in Tesla stores....

    Exactly, that one, the game is the same for everyone.

    Model 3 reservations ($1000 down) will be accepted in Tesla stores....

    Nobody can stop Tesla from creating some stock and increase capacity of its factory even if that happens at the same time that the federal tax credits gets on the phase out period. They could even sell the car half-baked and the you would need a visit to the service center for "inspection" :-)...

    Model 3 reservations ($1000 down) will be accepted in Tesla stores....

    Tesla could produce a lot of Model 3's without "selling" them while delivering a small and controlled amount of cars to the US market. When the 200,000 mark is very close, wait for the first day of a quarter and then flood the market with thousands of Model 3's and divert all the "stock" and...

    Saw the Model X in Buena Park today. Fell in love. Will the 70D be enough for me?

    Just a dumb question: why not an S? Faster, more range (at same battery size), more 'utility', you can have it right now, more mature product, cheaper,... What makes you decide the X over the S?

    What to choose......

    Just so you know, there is a post on the subforum Marketplace - Tesla for Sale where user DougH sells his fully loaded P85+ with AP for $83.5K with 11.5kmiles, go check it out! Maybe it's "too loaded" by what you've been saying but it's around $20k less than a similarly equipped 90D. *...

    What does 35K get me?

    On the performance front, I think we're being too optimistic. I'm leaning towards 200hp maximum and 0-60 mph in 6.0-6.5 sec and the promise of 200 miles of range. Supercharging will be extra for sure. I don't think it will have any aluminum, maybe just a few critical parts. 4G or LTE will be...

    Does it make sense to reserve a Model 3 asap if you want a base version?

    I know, I'm just not that excited about the reveal. I was planning to stay awake and refresh the website tirelessly until the option to reserve was available but some of that excitement went away with what we learned about Model X configurator. Nevertheless, let's hope Model 3 is a hottie and...

    Does it make sense to reserve a Model 3 asap if you want a base version?

    I'm as excited as anyone here that March 2016 is so close that I can taste it. I was ready to reserve a production Model 3 within the next minutes of the reveal because I didn't want to wait more than necessary.The recent release of configuration details of the Model X, though, made me wonder if...

    It's official, Bjørn won the Model X for Europe!

    Congratulations Bjorn!! Now I get the name of your new X: you win an X so it is an X-win :tongue:

    X instead of S - Why?

    I think the DS's have instructions of NOT selling the X and I think it's a good strategy for a good reason: Waiting 8-12 months for a car (when you have already been waiting for ages) might be a little nerve-wracking so they try to please customers that are not entirely sure they should wait...

    Bjørn's Tesla Model S videos

    Hello Bjorn, First, thank you very much for your videos and support to Tesla. If I had the money, I would buy a Tesla and, although I was convinced before finding your youtube channel, your videos helped me a lot understanding how the Tesla Model S worked. Since you were talking in your last...

    Spain

    Bienvenido Moetriax, no podrías haber elegido un coche mejor. Si ya estás convencido, lo único que necesitas es servicio técnico, la tienda no te va a servir de nada. Tengo entendido que no tardará en llegar pero si quieres más info, provar o alquilar el coche, mirarte uno de segunda mano...

    The new nose

    I don't love it yet but I think it'll look better with the front plate. Also, it differentiates a bit from the style of the MS. Sometimes, depending on the angle, the front bumper of the MS looks cheap so I think it's an improvement. We are so used to the grilles and rev noise that we need to...

    So what happens when multiple X's park next to each other?

    It will be better than with a normal door because they both have sensors and won't open if there's a probability of collision. How many times you've accidentally "touched" another vehicle parked at your side? A lot in my case. Even cooler, as the doors can adapt until it gets inches away from...

    Model X Mule Sightings

    Is it just me or this falcon door is single-hinged?? The opening and closing time seems fast enough. About the final thump, I also think it's nothing to worry about.

    Volkswagen Is Ordered to Recall Nearly 500,000 Vehicles Over Emissions Software

    They should force VW to install one fast-charging spot (AC and DC) for every diesel car sold and one home charger to every owner of those diesel cars so they have an incentive to switch to electric. That would be the best way to invest the money.

    Que Dios Elon te oiga. Creo que empezarán con una tienda en Madrid, es lo más lógico a nivel geográfico. A mi me da igual mientras haya un service center cerca de Barcelona y la tienda ya te haga todo el papeleo. Que si el model 3 cuesta lo que dicen y aún hay movele, tendremos...

    New renderings of storage space and 2nd row seats! (9/15)

    I'm confident there is a rational reason why they don't fold flat. We'll know in just two weeks.

    No dijo Mark en Drive&Dream que el coche hay que ir a buscarlo a Tillburg? Quizá han cambiado las cosas y no me he enterado... Qué ganas de reservar el model 3 y de ver los vídeos del model X cuando salga. Veo que mucha gente que reservó el X se lo está pensando por el tema de la segunda fila...

    Upstaged ... by my WIFE!

    If I was her, I'd buy an XP90D: still faster than your S85D, when driving side by side she'll be in a dominant position (women like that:cool:) and, if you missbehave, she'll hit you with the falcon door. Is she also in the forum? Hahahaaa! It could've been worse, for example, the new P90D of...

    Will MX fit in my garage?

    I don't know if this has been pointed out in this thread or the others linked here but just in case. Didn't Elon said that those doors wouldn't go higher than any hatchback or tailgate of other SUV's? I googled how high was the Q7 with the tailgate open since it was the one Elon was comparing...

    Any X-Sig reservation holders who don't want Performance?

    If I were you, I would send an e-mail to Jerome or/and Elon himself explaining the situation. After putting a 40.000$ deposit and waiting 2 more years than originally scheduled, I don't see why they can't put you at the front of the non-sig reservation holders. Maybe they don't want the X-sig...

    Reasons you might cancel your MX reservation

    I reckon the title may be interpreted as negative or malicious, a better one would be "Why the **ck (as for heck:cool:) would you even consider cancelling your MX reservation??". Can I change it myself or it must be changed by an administrator/moderator? I just wanted to know which are the main...

    Reasons you might cancel your MX reservation

    As I said, I just wanted to know why would someone cancel. There's been a lot of discussion over these 2.5 years of anxious waiting and we know a lot of people were waiting for the final design and characteristics of the vehicle, some still need to see it and test-drive it to finally decide...

    Reasons you might cancel your MX reservation

    I think anyone should enjoy&love his/her car, especially a 80.000-130.000$ one. Us hardcore teslarians would trade all those things for the amazing tesla ride but there are others on the softcore side that are not that convinced. Others have storage or towing needs that cannot be avoided. We...

    Reasons you might cancel your MX reservation

    Now that we know some info on the characteristics of the Model X, I would like to summarize in this thread what are the reasons that have made or will make you think of canceling your order. Some have been thoroughly discussed but the point is to gather as much info as possible on the acceptance...

    Four reasons owning a Model S has been bad for me...

    Completely off-topic but I remember a National Geographic documentary explaining the differences between cheetahs and leopards (Night & Day was the title) and I'm pretty sure leopards were the loners and cheetahs lived in family groups. If that's so, the comparison is still matching perfectly...

    Four reasons owning a Model S has been bad for me...

    My wife made me go to therapy because of Tesla and I don't even own one! For the non-owners, I would add that knowing about Tesla and having test driven one Model S makes you single-themed in conversations and, especially in Spain where practically no one knows about Tesla or EV's, it makes you...

    Touch ID for the Model 3

    Hello everyone, I'm new in the forum although I've been devouring the valuable info you all pour in here and I thank you for that enthusiasm.
