My brother has the performance model, it’s fast as shite. I had a ~700whp Supra and his car was definitely faster through 80mph or so. After that I’d real him in, but stoplight to stoplight there’s not much that can hang with an electric car.

Other than the performance aspect it’s kind of a boring car, but if you like the novelty of it being all electric I guess more power to you.

I'm just joking I like trolling you Tesla guys you're going to that guy that tells everybody about his car. Everybody that owns them likes them.

Well, those two guys who just crashed into that tree and got burned alive probably don't like it so much.

Will remove a lot of decision making from your life, you now get to take trips on routes that will take you to charging stations instead of where you might want to go.

I guarantee you that even the Model 3 Tesla will absolutely leave any muscle car you choose in the dust.

New Model 3 long range AWD. Midnight metallic silver. Standard wheels and interior.

Delivery date estimated Jun 6-24th. I’m anxiously awaiting.

I got floor mats picked out, a screen protector. Scheduled to get a ceramic coat of paint once I have it.

Any other accessories or anything else I should think about before delivery? This is my first EV and first ever car purchase in general (previous two cars driven were inherited), so I’m super pumped






Yall took the bait harder than a gator on swamp people sha.


If he's being legit, supercharger for the house. You'll need it.

Also, shoulda got the fully automated package. It'll make your drives on our shithole interstates much more bearable. Better than basic lane assist and assisted cruse control for sure.

Don’t plan on riding shotgun with no one in the driver’s seat.

Where are you locating your solar panels to charge the battery?

Model 3 comes with the option of dual motor all-wheel drive, 20” Überturbine Wheels and Performance Brakes and lowered suspension for total control, in all weather conditions. And a carbon fiber spoiler improves stability at high speeds, all allowing Model 3 to accelerate from 0-60 mph* in as little as 3.1 seconds.



Demon 0-60 is 2.1 seconds. Model x is 2.9 seconds.

From a stop on the street, yes easily.

That car needs a prepped surface and drag tires to get its numbers. Tesla has AWD and amazing traction control
