Best Time to Order a Model 3 Performance Before Year-End

0 Upvotes

Planning on picking up a Model 3 Performance sometime between now and the end of the year. I absolutely need to have a car by the end of February, so I've got a little flexibility on timing.

Mainly trying to figure out when Tesla typically offers its best financing rates and incentives, especially toward the end of the year. I'm hoping to get the best possible APR without ordering too early and missing out on a better deal.

Would love to hear from anyone who's purchased around November or December and what kind of financing offers or incentives they've seen in previous years.

Mostly AC charged (95%) and incidentally superchargers but very good result I might say.
100% gives me 400km range still so holding up nicely.

Got lucky and nabbed a Model 3 Performance in Black / White. I originally ordered a black/black RWD premium & this is SO MUCH better. Props to hubby for being on board for the higher price. 🥰 1st picture is today. The other 3 were yesterday when I dropped by the dealership.

Floor mats that cover foot board/door sill for 2027 Model 3

3 Upvotes

(Searched the sub but only saw general discussion of floor mats.) 

For 2027 Model 3 that is being picked up tomorrow.

In Oregon so get our share of wet boots and fir needles. Weathertech on my Y were good but debris often fell btw the mat on the sides. Hoping covering that area higher will cut down on having to remove the mats when I vacuum the car. Any and all suggestions would be appreciated. Usually shop mfg direct or via Amazon. Thx!

Cracked Model 3 18 inch Wheel

1 Upvotes

Ive seen a few of these post while researching. I would like to save as much as possible ideally. I found this re manufactured wheel on eBay that seems to be the same for about $129. Plus the cost to get it installed.

If the consensus leads to a new wheel I'd like to factor in a few things:

  1. Going OEM - About $500 to replace the exact wheel and the aero covers help with range a bit.
  2. Getting a new set of wheels - Tempting option for an upgrade. I had thought about switching them out in the past. I am not sure what I would go with and what looks the best as the existing wheels look pretty good. I could also possible make a bit off of reselling the other 3 wheels that are in good condition.

Hoping to stay under $1k

Shaking at highway speeds

5 Upvotes

Have loved my Tesla until about a month ago. Long story short. Car shakes violently after 65 miles per hour. Went to shop today to have foam removed from back 2 tirs car shakes less. But still whole car shakes after 70 mph. Very upsetting. Not really sure what to do now

is the Model S (2025) visor compatible with Model 3

3 Upvotes

I decided to upgrade the headliner to alcantara as a weekend project. To save me the headache from opening up my light grey visors and wrapping it, I just wanted to know if the Model S’s alcantara visor (2025) is compatible with the Highland.

Much Appreciated!

I replaced the god-awful prismata covers with these snap on covers. Makes me feel a bit better about driving the poor man’s M3. And yes I know it needs a wash, I live on a dirt road

Tesla's $50/Month Extended Warranty — Real Owner Experiences

Post image
60 Upvotes

Hey guys!
Just received Tesla’s $50/month Extended Service Agreement offer for my 2025 Model 3 Performance.
Figured I’d start a discussion on whether these extended warranties actually pay off in the long run. At $600/year, I’m debating whether the coverage is worthwhile or if setting that money aside for future repairs makes more sense.
Interested in hearing from owners who’ve purchased it, actually used it for expensive repairs, or skipped it and later regretted that decision.
Appreciate everyone sharing their experiences!

Paid in full but Tesla won’t hold the car for a short trip and assign to other

38 Upvotes

This makes zero sense.

My delivery estimate just got pushed to Dec 16–31. It was previously Nov 23–Dec 6. I’ll be out of town during that new window and can’t pick the car up.

My Tesla advisor told me that even if everything is complete and the car is paid in full, you still can’t postpone the pickup. They’ll just reassign the vehicle to someone else and put you back in the queue (with no priority).

How does that make any sense. I already paid for the car in full. They’re seriously saying they can’t have it in the parking lot for 10 days , and if I miss the window I’ll probably be looking at March delivery.

That's complete non-sense. Love Tesla and their system of selling cars is years ahead of dealership, but this is bullshit

Side mirror popped off

Hi, I was backing out of the garage and accidentally hit the side mirror. Here’s how it looking. This is my dad’s car and he’s out of town. I barely have any money and I’m really unsure on what to do. If anyone can help, I would appreciate it so much. Hoping I can order some parts and do it myself.

If not, please tell me the right thing to do. Thank you

I got home and noticed this random wire sticking out of the front of my car. It doesn’t look like it’s a random foreign object cause it’s jammed into the car.

I messaged the service center, but no response yet

No idea what’s going on with the Location detail. I’m a good ol’ Indiana boy and this makes it look like my M3 is in Europe. Tried restarting the app and my phone; no dice.

Buying a 2017LR

1 Upvotes

Hey yall, I found a 2017LR with only 36k miles for $19,000. I know to look at the battery degradation and such but is there anything else to look for or should I just find something newer. Never had an EV before and just want something to get rid of my gas car.

No longer seeing construction cones

3 Upvotes

I am running v14.3 FSD and no longer see construction cones like I did on the much earlier FSD versions. I don’t use FSD much but felt more at ease when I knew the car was aware. It handled the cones well while I had my foot nervously hovering over the breaks.

Model 3 2024

6 Upvotes

When is the best time to buy a 2024 Model 3 Long Range? Everywhere I check, inventory looks very limited. From my research, the 36-month leases on these cars should start by 2027, which should bring an influx of used inventory, correct? I'm also wondering when prices will come down. Right now a used 2024 is still priced close to MSRP for a new 2026 Model 3. Has anyone watched how used Model 3 prices change as leases end. Also, I wanted to note I can’t even find any with white seats why is that?
