    There are still Long Range RWD models available

    $2800 for AWD is not a bad deal. I own a LR AWD and driven my sister’s LR. You can really feel the difference. AWD is not only faster but feels planted. Drive both before committing.

    Tesla service loaner policy

    I dropped off my Model 3. There are a few paint and other issues that were identified during delivery. I was told in advance that Teslas might not be available, which I was not excited but I understand. What I don’t understand is why I am getting a $15k dollar rental in place of a $60k car. It...

    Help with Ultra White Seat Stains

    My Model 3 has about 3k miles and I already have a stain on the driver’s seat. I went to up to the mountains for the weekend and somehow on the way home I managed to stain the seat. I tried everything from alcohol to magic eraser. I was able to get about 80%, but I can see it and really bothers...

    AWD delivery thread

    I haven’t driven the performance, but own an AWD. It has so much punch that I don’t regret not getting the performance (+ my wallet and wife are a lot happier). The only reason I considered getting the performance was the performance package, but for the cost difference I can modify the car...

    AWD delivery thread

    Picked up my Model 3 today from the Tempe AZ delivery center. Overall, it was an okay experience. Knowing is the end of the quarter, I expected Tesla to try to get customers out of there as soon as possible. Entire process took 25 minutes. 20 for paperwork and five minutes for inspection. Car...

    Arizonians, did you get plates for next 5 years?

    Picking up my Model 3 next week. My registration balance shows $150. I assume this is only for one year. I want 5 years and custom license plate. My delivery advisor is too busy right now. Wondering if someone can shed some light on this. I assume I will be able to make this changes during...

    Tempe, AZ delivery went well, from thrilled 1st time owner!

    I am glad everything went well. I am picking my car from same location next week, and also hoping to get a near flawless car. Is that delivery center busy?

    Logan has also been assigned to me. After receiving a similar email and not hearing back from him for about a week, I got an email from him with my delivery appointment. Be patient. Tesla is a mad house with all the deliveries

    Palm Springs delivery - Black Non-P AWD with White interior

    Clearly Tesla is rushing. That is a very poor detail. There are a lot of scratches in the taillight too. If only Tesla covered all this cars with vynil after assembly and prep them for delivery the same day a customer picks it up, all they need to do is just a basic car wash. A polisher can do a...

    New employee at the warehouse, I guess. I have order a few items from the Tesla store. No problem at all. Usually get the FedEx package the same week I ordered.

    Non-P AWD with White Interior

    Reserved 4/2 am. Ordered 6/28 Red, AWD, sport wheels, AZ. Changed interior to white as soon as available. No changes since then. Still have the edit button. Called this morning. No VIN yet.

    New order vs Reservation number

    Blue is nice and a smarter choice. If you chip the paint, you can easily repair it yourself. Multi-coat red will be difficult. I don’t event think Tesla sells the chip repair kit.

    New order vs Reservation number

    Don’t pick black if you don’t want to wash it every weekend and polish it twice a year. I am getting rid of my black car for a red Model 3.

    PPF in Phoneix area

    Is it a custom installation? If that is th case, the price is reasonable. I would not pay much if they don’t wrap the edges. Try Smartfilm in Mesa. Good luck.

    AWD delivery thread

    I am excited for you. I really need to replace my car and I am hoping to get a VIN assigned soon. It shouldn’t be much longer as a 4/2 reservationist, I hope. I should give them a call too. I assume you call the sales number, right?

    AWD delivery thread

    Interesting. I reserved on 4/2/16 and order 6/28. However, I modified my order to include white seats as soon as they were available, and I believe that’s killing me. Live in Arizona.

    Change My Mind: Thinking of Changing from AWD (non P) to RWD

    I recommend you stick with the AWD. I did it for a few reasons: safety, handling and motor redundancy. If one motor goes down, the other can get you out of trouble. I did not get EAP. Sure it is convinient, but I rather drive and have a fun with the M3. Plus you can always upgrade later...

    Costa Mesa Delivery Experience P3D Aug 5

    Just curious. What were your findings in your friend’s RWD? I wouldn’t reject my car if it is something that can be easily replaced later on. Paint defects that cannot be corrected with a detail; well, that is a different story.

    Red - paint quality issues

    Do not install the protection film until the paint is perfect. Any paint defects need to be corrected. You want to see a perfect paint finish every time you wash your car. To me, that is what makes PPF worth it: the fact that your vehicle will look perfect for years to come.

    Costa Mesa Delivery Experience P3D Aug 5

    I wonder how many cars Tesla is delivering with defects and people are just letting it go due to the excitement. I want Tesla to succeed. However, they need to have better quality control in order to thrive as the top EV manufacturer when the established premium brands have EV vehicles and...

    Model 3P Performance Upgrade spoiler install process?

    I suggest you install the spoiler first and then apply the ceramic coat. The 3M adhesive needs to stick to a more durable finish. Clear coat has a stronger bond than ceramic. I hand wash my vehicles and still have to reapply ceramic coat every 15 months to keep them protected.

    Supercharger - Benson, AZ

    I emailed Tesla about restablishing the supercharger in Benson. The new location in Wilcox is not going to work for most SE Arizonans. Tesla replied and said they were going to look into it. Maybe they will listen if enough people reach out to :)
