Sweet! I'd say it's end-of-quarter and Tesla needs to hit delivery metrics..! Spoken as a sales guy currently going through my own end of quarter madness.

The Model 3 for America is only made in Fremont. So they build in batches for shipping locations. Where can I lay my hands on 71 large? Hmmm, gotta figure out this one little detail...

2.9 on the street is incredible.
It's confirmed Canada and Euro spec cars are slightly slower.

Most people aren't going to do 2.9 second runs and most are not even going to come close to tapping the available power. Most people that aren't named AMIRZA786 that is 🤣

I rarely get to a light or stop where I am first and I can tap into the available power but when I'm rolling, it's all the time for me.

I am not sure how many people have been in a 10 second car, but if you switch to Insane mode, this car is violent. Only way I can describe it is like a roller coaster. If you use this mode, tell your passengers to put their head against the headrest and brace themselves. I asked Sue to try it on a back road with no other cars around. I was not ready for it; it snapped my head back and hurt my neck. If you have ever been boxing and got hit squarely on the chin, you know what I mean. It tries to separate your head from your body. Warn your passengers.
510 HP, AWD, 2 motors. Adaptive damper suspension, P-Zero staggered rubber. Battery runs axle to axle; very balanced and low center of gravity.
There is much more to the car. It is so much upgraded over our early 2018 Mid Range. The 1st thing you notice is opening the door; the quality is undeniable. The seats are amazing. The driving dynamics are on another level. If you are interested, go drive one. For 55 large no car is even close.
When the Model Y gets the 3 upgrades, watch out world. Everything else will fight for a distant 2nd place.

Congrats on the new car. Trust me, you will get used to the power. Sometimes I feel like I need more.
If a passenger isn’t ready they will hit their head hard and be pissed. My wife and my kids get pissed if I don’t warn them when I hit it, like seriously, not jokingly, pissed. As a driver you don’t realize the effect it has on passengers sometimes.

Congrats! I know from all the reviews it's an amazing car. I can't wait to test drive one. If a Y Performance comes out next year, who knows. Enjoy 😍
