I will never look at Teslas the same way ever again.

Trevor - what do you think of the Tesla? The acceleration is insane, and it’s quiet fast - the ZHP is a keeper though - it’s completely analog vs digital.

The X6M was supposed to go when my reservation came up, but I’m not ready to get rid of it yet.
Knowing that these are the really expensive Model 3s, they seem to be put together decently. I did notice some crinkling with the rear door seal at the bottom. Not sure if it’s a one of problem or a bad mold. The front seats are comfy and lots of cushion. Not quite the same feeling/firmness as a German performance seat. The back seat is totally opposite and I find that isn’t a good consistency. It’s as if they just designed it in last minute. But they do look nice and they seem comfy enough to be in for long trips.
Looking up in the back seat is what I love. If you own a convertible then maybe it’s not as much as a sensory expansion in my mind. Seeing everything under a slick shiny glass ceiling that molds to the shape of car is beautiful.
The front seat view is just as inviting. I’m sure it’ll take a while to get used to the only screen in the middle like a Toyota Prius/Yaris. It’s very responsive so that’s nice because most cars have a noticeable lag which makes the touch screen experience poorer than it should. It’s so simple up front that it’s just about boring. LOL. At least the sound system is really good!!
That’s all I could experience with the car. Since they are the first load to Vancouver, Canada and they are owned already I could test it. My friend gets the contract to work with Tesla because he’s really good at what he does. He did my car three years ago with XPEL and ceramic in between working with exotic cars often.

I’d lower the Model 3 and stance it. It’s way too high and narrow looking for its 350RWHP and around 400 torque? LOL
I’ve been in an S and X. And both feel super quick and punchy for their size. You’d never know how heavy they are by the way they accelerate and corner.
That’s what I think so far!!
Excuse my tires. I was off-roading in barely graded gravel for 1/2 mile before I got to my friend’s place. [emoji23]

Once you see it, you can never unsee it.
Your tires are not excused. Absolute filth. Get them off this clean forum.

@bmwcurves - actually Monaco Blue since it's a 2006, but it's essentially the continuation of Orient Blue. BTW, I love how your Orient pops in your signature pic - that's how I want mine to look; in photos, I'm a bit jealous of Mystic, but I love the deep blue too
I just completely skipped reading your signature like a complete dolt, could have answered all of my questions :facepalm
Monaco Blue is a gorgeous color. It's slightly different from Orient Blue but not enough to notice unless you have a keen eye. I actually have a shark fin antenna I'm contemplating putting on my car that's Monaco Blue.
My car does not look as good as my pic right now. I really need to have it paint corrected and then ceramic coated.
Mystic Blue has a special place in my heart, I really love the color, but I'd be hard pressed to trade my OB for Mystic.
I love Mystic and Orient so much (almost went to look at a Mystic sedan a few months before I started lighting up Peter’s inbox), but after driving a grey, silver, and bronze car my entire driving life, I needed something less subtle lol.
Actually, the last time anyone in my family had a car not white/silver/grey/bronze/black was in 1991.
