Model 3 Options Pricing

[bozo]

Yes, it is when YOU will get your car based upon queue and location.

THe $49.000 is because you MUST get the PUP in all the cars NOW.

 

[AZ-3]

Nope. Saves weight and cost.

I don't care about that. I care more about having no heated seats or heated mirrors and having to pay $5k to get them.

In our warmer climate, we care about having ventilated (or full air conditioned) seats so your butt and back aren't sweating against the leather / pleather after 3 minutes. The idea of "pre cooling" you car with the app is nonsense. Go park in a parking lot in Arizona and let your seats sit in the sun for 30 minutes. They will radiate heat for hours - doesn't matter what the interior temperature of the cabin is. The seats hold heat and act as a heater in the summer.

They just told me that the only cars that will probably be delivered this year will be the 310 battery all of which will be equipped with the Premium upgrade package. So they will start at $50,200 (including the mandatory delivery charge of $1200, even if you pick it up at the factory). Then you can choose wheels, color and AP.
Looking at comparing these to a used model S, make sure to get an S after vin# 50,000 so it will have AP1. That cruise control is THE best thing on the car.

I'd need at least 5 years bumper to bumper warranty on a S CPO before I'd do it. Out of warranty repairs on the Model S would eat up any price savings vs the Model 3 if you found a CPO noticeably cheaper in initial cost.

But S CPOs either get

* Used cars which receive the remaining battery and drive warranty and a two year, 100,000 miles maximum odometer pre-owned limited warranty

or

* Used cars which receive the remaining battery and drive warranty and a four year, 50,000 miles pre-owned limited warranty

Even if out of warranty repairs weren't an issue you would be looking at a different cost per mile just based on electricity alone.

I'm just not seeing CPOs cheap enough to make me think they are an economical choice vs getting a Model 3.

White will be available in the Fall, but that's likely only if you add the PUP, and white will probably cost extra.

Of course it will cost extra, it would be crazy to think of getting something extra from Tesla without paying an arm and a leg for every little thing.

Get ready to have a lot of black colored Model 3 on the road.

Bwahaha. Stick to what i actually said. WHITE PAINT AT NO COST!

Can't believe there are actually [people] that disagree with this. Car companies offer white paint for free. Tesla doesn't. That's wrong.

You realize you come across as very hung up on some minor fact don't you?

If paying for paint is such a problem then just get black or cancel your reservation so I move up a spot.

I suspect it's power seating, but not the 12 way power seating that you see with the premium.

Possibly a driver power seat only, (not passenger).

Will the M3 have the ability to pre-cool or pre-heat your car via the app?

It's something inarguably dumb/anti-customer that Tesla is doing. I will say it whenever I feel the need. I also don't think one-thousand dollars is minor (not saying that you will, but please don't respond with "if you can't afford it then it's clearly not the car for you". That awful "comeback" needs to be retired.). This is a message board; It doesn't matter how "you" come across. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Yes, included on the base model.

Car companies do not offer *anything* for free.
They often roll items into a base price though, so if it makes you feel better call the base Model 3 a $36k car with a free choice of color.

It's something inarguably dumb/anti-customer that Tesla is doing.

So what Tesla has done by charging for white paint is so dumb we can't even argue against it? We have to just take your word for it over a company that has over 400k reservations for a vehicle that it's only starting to produce. Hmmm, who knows best? You or Tesla? Now that's a difficult one.

I will say it whenever I feel the need.

Once is enough. We can't even argue against you, according to your logic, so why would you feel the need keep telling us over and over?

Some people here do care what people think of us despite most of us also wishing to remain anonymous.

Awesome, thanks !!!

Not complaining about the cost of the upgrades, but after seeing the prices (and knowing that things will be significantly inflated here in Australia, the Model 3 that I'd really WANT is just too far out of my comfort zone in terms of how much I'd typically spend on a car (in the order of $70,000+ in Aussie dollary-dooes). I'll continue to dream though.

Oh and to the people complaining about the white paint cost, this isn't the normal solid white that other companies might include in the price, this is "Pearl White Multi-Coat" paint.

Ok?

Obvi. But that's irrelevant.

Those "other companies" offer free white paint. Tesla doesn't. That's literally what people have been saying/discussing. Tesla provides no choice for a no additional cost paint color. Other companies do.
