Stakless because when FSD is ready you wont need any ever again. I have the model 3 2019 model but after having tried this new model I can't stop dreaming about it , is is awesome. Just the soundsystem is worth the price alone. I will get the performance this time .

Excellent review, and I've watched them all....

I LOVE my new highland model 3. incredible build quality and comfort and tightness.

I jumped on the car and was able to get a red/black version with the rebate. It's absolutely gorgeous inside and out. The Alcatera is lovely on the side doors. And the way the sun reflects the Ultra Red leaves shadows which emphasize the contours of the sports sedan. Now the trouble is wanting to wash it all the time to keep up the good looks 😅

Honestly the Y is ugly as F. The model 3 performance doesn’t look to bad now that they removed the duck face.

funny your friend schmutz on the headliner coming out of the Aurora service center; I had the exact same problem picking up my M3 from the same location!

Great video! Do you have a video on realigning the charge port door by twisting it like you said?

Can't wait to see the Satin PPF - That is my plan eventually.

I absolutely love my 2024 M3P but definitely some build/paint issues reported by a majority of new deliveries. Had to have Tesla repaint a couple panels and give me a service credit on another. There was a paint chip, dirt inclusions and paint drip. Interior accent lighting has some “delamination” like issues. Right sub woofer rattle at some frequencies. Driver dash with a subtle rattle at some frequencies of road vibrations. Many report their pulling heavy to the right. Mine drives perfectly straight. Unfortunate so many people having issues on delivery with things Tesla supposedly sorted out on prior releases.

Picking up mine in Aurora Monday

It looks alot better in person, and if you are getting this car make sure the exterior contrasts the wheels. I wouldn't get the gray bc it doesn't accentuate the wheels or the other body modifications it has. A Red, White, or Blue makes the cars extra body mods pop out more.

I've had my 2024 M3P for a few weeks now. Overall the build quality has been pretty good. However, I had to take it to the service center to deal with rattles in the driver side dash and noise from the aero caps when driving at low speed. Panel gaps and paint were pretty good with only some minor flaws.

awesome!

Glad we can at least get white interior now and stay within the tax credit.

Hey I have a question for you guys! I just got a brand new model 3 a couple months ago and that black trim turns oil slick looking after I wash it. How do I stop this from happening and how do I get it back to its original black look? Thanks

I've been driving high bolster vehicles for 15+yrs. I miss it now that I have a 21 Model 3 LR. I was always very careful how I got in and out not to squoosh or rub the bolsters. You can avoid hurting them 99% of the time. I've 111,000km on my 3yr old Model 3 and the bolsters are little creased here and there but they are still fine with no wear. Surprised I am.

I'm also a one handed driver (left hand only) but as much as I love the look of the model 3, I struggle with having all the controls in a screen on the right. And now no stalks. How do you accommodate this as a one handed driver? Might be very different for you as a right-handed driver but still curious to know.

That's an improvement over my gray '23 M3RWD. Tesla gave me 14 dust nibs at no extra charge.

First thing I noticed on the new M3P was a the rear seat room. It's noticeably more cramped back there, I thought it was the sports seats taking up more room but I think you're right about the seatback angle or the seat bottom height.

Are you saying in general? I’m specifically comparing it to the last Model 3

This is an amazing car in everyway. Driving is the key, who the hell cares about these tiny grips, you can take ANYCAR and fine tiny grips. This car drives like nothing else.

Around the 16:25 mark, is the passenger side mirror where it attaches to the glass supposed to be sticking out like that?

How do you recommend removing emblems from PPF? I am concerned about using goo gone or isopropyl alcohol to remove sticker residue as it may damage the film and aversely affect the film's hydrophobic coating.

New wheels are forged. Which makes them stronger and lighter. This adds to range and performance

This is Tesla’s best car for the buck, hands down !! It’s completely re-engineered & drives amazing. My complaints are also the turn signals, they do get stuck. IMO.. this may become a recall as a safety issue. Everyone had a problem & it needs to be addressed !! I didn’t notice the black trim being glossier or different. My M3P Paint is flawless, there are 3 panel gaps 2 on the driver side & one on the right side of the trunk. I also noticed the frunks struts sounds weird like they are broken pieces inside. I did address all of these with Tesla. Other than that the car is absolutely amazing 🤩⚡️

Great compact sedan. I just test drove a Model X, which is more my size. I did rent a 2023 Model 3 for a week while my Ford was being repaired after a mishap. Nice, but too small. Do they finally have Apple CarPlay?

gotta look out for this ty

In regards to the rear light situation, it wasn't that Tesla was required to put the lights down low on the bumper like that. It's a federal motor vehicle safety standard. If a car is sold in the US, the tail lights are required to be on a fixed body panel. If they're on a movable body panel (i.e. rear tailgate or trunk like here on the refreshed Model 3), a secondary set of lights are required as a safety precaution in case you're stuck on the side of the road with your trunk open so cars coming up behind you can see you. One question I have though. In the center storage areas..... did they change the material used from the previous generation Model 3 and the Model Y, or is it the same kind of felt? Hate how that seems to kind of just shed little black fibers all over whatever might happen to rub against it when it's in that little storage area in my 2023 Model Y.

I'm guessing Tesla will either reduce the price by $1,000 or make other colors a no cost upgrade by year end to move more cars. They don't need to do that yet since demand is hot.

Yes, I would remove that Ludacrous badge also. In fact, I'd debadge the whole car.... more stealth!

Let's not get carried away regarding Tesla build quality improvements. As Out Of Spec Dave reported, his brand new refreshed 3P has a squeaky center console and a rattle in the dash. As far as the spoiler, it's cheap of Tesla not to have a bolt on painted spoiler like the Model X has. There have been fit and finish issues reported by Cybertruck owners too. I'm surprised the NTSB allowed Tesla to remove the turn signal lever. I can see that cause issues in real world drivings situations.

Any color other than Stealth Gray costs an additional $7,500 (lost tax credit) + $1,000 - 2,000 (depending on which color) = $8,500 - $9,500!!! Obviously Tesla does not want to paint any color but gray….

80% of quality is engineering. You can’t fix the poor ergonomics decisions made by the engineers. The center console that drivers have to use to access most features of the car can’t be fixed. The lack of real turn signals stalks. Decisions like that plague the car.
