Okay, mine is much ahead of yours. I took delivery in April 2018. Maybe that’s why. Anyway, I haven’t really cared because driving experience has been phenomenal. Back to this CT issue, I’m a bit concerned, because I’m looking to take long road trips shortly after I get mine (RN#11275xxx, 12/16 order, AWD, Virginia, still no VIN).

Build quality (panel gap, fit & finish) on my 2018 M3 is a joke, but the battery and powertrain have been problem-free till this day and after 105K miles. We still get 300-mile (rated) on a full charge. Never had any 'critical' or major issues that stopped us from driving it. The only annoying issue was the upper control arm/ball joint noise which SC replaced both sides free of charge.
Yup, we had one of those and it was a great car. Maybe best all around fun car we've ever owned. Dependable and great range. Wish they would sell a M3 RWD LR today with the same, or better range, and performance. Tesla way underrated the 0-60 time on those cars, saying it was 5.1 seconds, but was more like 4.6 -4.7 seconds. Wiith what little money Tesla gave us for our M3 RWD LR Trade-In, in hindsight I wish we would have kept that car for a second vehicle.

Wish they would sell a M3 RWD LR today with the same, or better range, and performance. Tesla underrated the 0-60 on those cars by about half a second, saying it was 5.1 seconds, but it was more like 4.6 seconds. We traded it in for a 2021 MYP and I would probably trade my 3.5 second 0-60 time for 300 real miles of range and 0-60 in 4.6 seconds. And with what little money Tesla gave us for our M3 RWD LR Trade-In, in hindsight I wish we would have kept that car for a second vehicle.
I have a near mint condition 2018 Model 3 LR RWD with only 57k miles on it that I will sell you. I am probably going to have to let it go in order to get my CT depending on how long it is to delivery. I have an order and waiting on a VIN but also trying to figure out how to set aside enough money to keep both.

Thanks but with our current situation, the Cybertruck is actually going to be our third vehicle, since we are not trading in our MYP, or F-350.

BETA TESTING WITH ALL FS - CTs! I love you pioneering spirits, and your individual sacrifices to Tesla / Elon's hubris! Software they can fix, but firmware, meh...

CT beta, like FSD beta: you pay a premium to test tesla development projects. If you have issues with the CT you should return the vehicle using lemon laws.
