I can confirm the supercharger is indeed operational at Metter and it is also a v3. Just drove from Atlanta in my Model 3 Performance. All of the chargers have an audible fan running even when not in use which is interesting. Charging peaked at 1,004 mph at 246kW and then settled in around...

Exact same config on mine - same series of events, but got a call as well. Ordered on 5/24 - waited in line on the east coast to reserve on the first day, also a Tesla owner. I just talked to my delivery advisor. She sent me an e-mail with my vin and called me about an hour later. Delivery...

In a similar boat as you (waited in line day one - ordered a P3D about a month ago). Just thought through this logic a bit. The estimates are likely based on a rough approximation of the P3D/AWD orders they plan to receive - all being built in Q3 (first P3D just came off the line). They just...

+1 for ludicrous. Elon did say way back in the day that the Model 3 would have it: Watch Out: Tesla Model 3 Will Have Ludicrous Mode Makes me wonder if they will ship it on the Model 3 performance as a surprise or have it as a paid upgrade later like they did for the P85D. Really hope they...

You are my hero by the way - I am pretty sure you single handedly got Elon to add the aluminum pedals to the performance. Way to go! Running out of wishes, but maybe ludicrous speed? Nice work asking for the first one :-) you never know.

I never got an invite to configure my LR Model 3 for some reason either. Just logged in earlier this year (Feb as I recall) and saw a 3-6 week delivery quoted. I did as a salesperson about it and they said some folks were not getting mails. Could be because I selected the AWD preference? Not...

Totally agree with this logic. If you want a 3 second car, this is the most affordable way to do it (in a new EV at least). I understand everyone thinking that the performance option is priced high - but you need to compare performance models to other cars of a similar quickness (M series BMW...

I hate to encourage constant refreshes - but I never got an invite. Just went into the configurator (going directly to my Tesla and clicking on the reservation) and the options were there suddenly last Wednesday night. Been a week since I ordered my P3D and still no e-mail. I get plenty of...

For those of you that didn’t see it on other threads, the Model 3 performance will indeed include sport brakes and red brake calipers according to Elon.

Only two options for the wheels in the performance configurator were 18 inch Aeros or the 20 inch sport wheels in silver.

Have not seen this posted anywhere, so wanted to share. I did get a picture of the P3D spoiler in the confiugrator when I was changing my color to red yesterday. Didn't notice it when I originally configured it on Wednesday night. Had not seen it before so I took a screenshot:

When I placed my P3D order it said 12-16 weeks on the configurator. Might have been reservation specific?

I have never had a red car - this will be my first and I am surprisingly excited. I also was in love with the blue for some time, then had a brief affair with midnight silver metallic. Walked the local Tesla lot today (must have been 50 Model 3s awaiting delivery), blue looks great, but boy...

You made my day Ryan! The P3D in red with the red calipers is going to look pretty sweet. Wasn't expecting him to let us know what kind of brakes were on it. Might have to take this puppy to the track!

Edited mine twice today already. Was told today by a sales person that you can’t use the edit function after 3 days have passed. Then the order locks and it is $500 for a change. Going to find out for sure in a few hours.

Yeah - it reminds me of blurry-cam leaks of cell phones back in the day. For all I know the insert is aluminum in those shots that have surfaced. You really can’t tell at all. I also wonder how the inserts on the door panels are - they look like the synthetic leather on the Model X/S door...

Gotta agree here. If you are not excited about it, don’t buy it. No fun if you are not excited.

In total agreement with you. I have an X, sat in a model 3 for the first time today. I was pleasantly surprised after hearing everyone say how cheap the interior was. Very minimalist - but solid. Seat was comfortable. Touch screen interface seemed fine to me - very fresh feeling compared to...

Appreciate you asking Elon about the brake calipers - really should be red given it is a performance model and all. Having him say it might be faster than 3.5 seconds wasn’t a bad thing though. Fingers crossed on the calipers! Same config coming as you - big thing I want to see up close at...

I also changed mine (online). Went to see MSM myself today - the red color looked amazing on a P100D right next to the MSM model 3. Changed my performance with white from MSM to red.

Big fan of your config! Ordered the exact same thing and am very excited for the MSM/white combo. Our single remaining ICE is also on death watch! Cannot wait to do a final cleanup of grease stains in the garage and never look back.

Same here - tried this afternoon and was able to successfully select my location. I too have been debating about colors all day! I am sticking with MSM with white interior so far. Problem is all the colors look pretty great... glad they were able to change it for you without an issue.

Reservation placed on 3/31 around 10am ET as I recall - waited in line. Never got an invite, but went to the configurator on my Tesla under my model 3 reservation around 11:30pm ET on 5/23 - performance and AWD option was available. Ordered performance midnight silver metallic, sport wheels...

Did not get an e-mail, but logged into my Tesla, opened up the configurator, and the performance option was there with 12-16 weeks delivery (was in line on the first day when I placed my reservation). Went for a performance model, midnight silver, white interior, sport wheels. Had the same...

Just had this happen today - pulled it out all the way as you suggested, rotated, and fed back in. Worked like a charm. Thanks!

Excellent to hear - appreciate the feedback. You wear jeans a lot? Has occurred to me that maybe I should just diversify my pants collection a little.

Thanks for making these videos by the way - bought mine with white seats after seeing your initial stain test video and really do enjoy them. I saw a little tinge of blue jean on mine after a while - I do wash all of my jeans before wearing them... but when I say slight tinge it is really...

Anyone know it scotch guard or something like that would be a good idea on the ultra white seats? Also - best practices on regularly cleaning them and the specific cleaner you use? Mainly concerned about blue transfer from jeans. This video is frightening from Bjorn...

Had a similar issue - don't know how to explain it. Similar time of day, same road, same firmware... none of the same AP2 issues came up as in my original post except for the car really wanting to get off at every exit it sees if you are in the far right lane. No issues with TACC doing a...

Same here.

Agreed from my end too. Had the Model S for 3 weeks as a loaner. Missed the auto presenting doors more than I imagined. Missed the windshield on the X and riding up higher as well. No contest for me - I would only go for the X in the future unless they made major changes to the S (auto...

Why would you say perpetual beta? It has only been a few weeks since the main rollout started. When you enable auto steer it even has a big disclaimer you need to accept - I assume that goes away in a few months when it is more stable. On one of your points - I want to be fair though, the...

I agree 100% with all of this. I have a HW2 car and had some experience with it today - and I shared some feedback directly with Tesla about some edge cases I encountered. These threads make me not want to talk about the experience - everyone is so critical of Tesla for a feature they clearly...

Just got the car back - took a bit but they went out of their way to make sure everything was right. Two parts are on order still, but those were minor items they can do during a later service. Bottom line is the car looks great. They resolved everything I asked to be fixed and did a really...

Got my MX 90D in December. If I had the chance to trade my 90D with ventilated seat, unlimited SC, and obeche gloss wood with 100D with non ventilated seats, no SC, and dark ash wood... I would be incredibly torn. Would likely want to keep the one I have. I will only use the extra range 2-3x...

The reasoning I heard is the 100D pricing takes into consideration that you don't have unlimited supercharging... additionally, makes the 90D owners (like me) feel a little better about having unlimited supercharging and not waiting for the 100D. Would not be surprised if the 90D option...

Yeah - will keep you all posted after they are done with it. Keeping a positive attitude. All the other posts and stories I have found indicate the cars were basically perfect when they finished with the fixes. Hoping to have a similar experience with the repairs.

Some advice from somebody in a similar situation. So - I went eyes wide open with my purchase. I knew it wouldn't be perfect. I did however read all the threads ahead of time, knew what might be wrong when I took delivery, and saw one consistent theme - Tesla always fixes the car if you give...

I feel the same way. One other fun thing to think about... if the current cars really achieve level 5 and can drive across the country autonomously with no driver... how cool would it be to fly out somewhere and have your car waiting for you for free? I seriously doubt it will happen. Would...

Just got 2.52.120 tonight - says bug fixes in the release notes. Cannot tell any differences so far on my HW2 MX 90D... might be in shadow mode until they flip the switch for AP. No ability to turn on any AP features yet for me.

Same here. Even owned it for a few weeks without even noticing it... then saw something during some night driving - put the dots together with these forum posts.

HW2 Model X 90D with cold weather package. 29XXX VIN. Same thing here. Only red lights - mostly LEDs at night. Noticed it on the highway at night. Definitely gets worse if you sat in the seat taller than me. Not a huge deal honestly - unless I heard there was a definitive fix I wouldn't...

Same for me with a HW2 MX 90D with 2.50.180. Tesla support tried to do a refresh for me and it did nothing.

Does 2.50.185?

Agreed - just remember to watch some videos and get excited about it again a few days before the delivery happens. I always try to remind myself that these are real people at the end of the day and these things happen despite everyone's best intentions. Nobody wanted that windshield to crack -...

Nobody can perfectly predict the future... but unless they really ramp-up capacity history may repeat itself again. Probably depends on the changes they announce next week. If it is something major like HW2 it might push things out. They may indeed build it in Feb though - just would likely...

Based on the deliveries I am reading about, unless you get spill over from the previous quarter (built in Q4 but delivered in Q1 due to delivery issues) the only way it works is end of quarter for US deliveries. Cycle seems to repeat itself. Non-US deliveries beginning of quarter - then US in...

I cannot believe it - so sorry! Only thing I can assure you of is the car is worth the wait. Just keep hope alive. I have had some terrible experiences with windshields (last time I had one replaced it did take two replacements) so I guess it can happen.

Thanks for the info. Out of ideas at this point - hoping the next update fixes whatever is messed up.

I am finding that turning always connected off and energy savings on makes a big difference. I connected teslafi.com so I can track the specifics (I have sleep mode enabled too). During sleep time (when always connected is off it can go to sleep) I am seeing virtually no range loss over an...
