Ordered a new M3-LP

Yesterday I ordered a new daily: Model 3 long-range premium. Taking the plunge to electric and really looking forward to it.
White & white/black premium interior. 19" wheels.

Good friend of ours purchased a Model 3. Has had it only a couple of weeks and she loves it. I am installing Tesla (logo) door puddle lights for her they get here.

All the best with yours, and will be interested to hear how you like it.

Thanks B! I love puddle lights. Slated for delivery this week and I'll certainly update this thread as I spend time with it. Tint & PPF are being tackled as soon I get it home.

Picked it up yesterday. Literally a 5-minute delivery process as they say. Sign a few papers, digital payment via my phone - done. Tint and PPF happening in the next few days. Tape applied for the journey home and local driving until PPF.

I must say I am very excited to own this. It really drives well and feels incredible making ICE vehicles seem so dated. Welcome to the future.


Ready for transport....

Wow...Beautiful! Looks so good in white!

Our good friends have had theirs a month now and absolutely love the car. I jockeyed it around in the driveway, not a real drive, of course, but very different when you are used to hearing an engine sound.

We might look at an M3 too when wife is do for a car upgrade. Enjoy!, sure you will....

Is the front windshield dark due to the upper glass being tinted ? Did you tink the front screen? That's going to cause issues with cops not to mention driving at night...let me know. I've thought about tinking my front window but only for UV light, using a clear tint film..this will not draw attention to my car in a negative way.

Looks good though.

It looks dark due to the darkness of the other windows. I think I did a 22% on that windshield and it's clear from the inside. There are offering of even lighter % VLT if one is looking for the invisible look. I don't like 100% clear films because they don't block enough light and don't offer as much privacy.

Agree on the privacy...but for the front windshield I would do clear just for the legal aspect, but I did 30% on my side windows which basically match the rest of the car...it's all black so the look is very nice. Hence why I call it Death Star
