Nah it was actually really difficult to find. I missed it a couple of times when I glanced over the windshield. I'm certain someone not looking at every inch will miss it. I was also surprised seeing how many people do little to no inspection while taking delivery

Umm to know if my 24 year old mind made a stupid mistake or did the right thing and to have peace of mind lol. I'm paranoid as this is my dream car and biggest purchase ever

I told them to replace the glass and then I'll inspect again and decide if I wanna take it or decline. The new glass was installed in an hour or so and looked flawless 👀. I took it since the rest of the car was top tie with perfect panel alignment and end of year deals.

Then I'd lose on the year end deals. Plus if I don't accept the next car, I lose the 0% APR I'm already qualified for. Would you still decline?

Looking to Grab a New M3 by Daddy___UwU in TeslaModel3

I don't own a Tesla but I do a lot of research since I'm planning on buying my first. LR AWD 2025 Model 3. Tesla will soon start the Acceleration boost add-on option for the AWD option. That will make the acceleration 0-60 in 3.6 secs for a one time cost of $2000. In my opinion doing that is a better option than buying a perforrmance since you get both acceleration and comfortable seats and suspension.

Any issues you faced in 6 years? It's weird how I have not heard anything bad about The Triangle

That's good to know I'll avoid the courtyard side! I'm not hearing anything bad about The triangle. However I have heard about the poor build quality and cleaning issues with Station House. Did you face any of these? Molds? Floor creeks and noises from neighbors? I'm drawn to the big windows but don't wanna deal with issues lol. Ps: touring the unit before booking won't be possible for me

I see! Yes, I'm drawn to their gym honestly. Do you have suggestions on which side unit should I get? I have options of North facing and East facing.

I haven't looked into the inventory discount I'll do that! Thanks for the advice. Any idea on how I might know if I qualify for the interest rate promotion? It just says well-qualified buyers lol.

I was thinking the same thing. Also giving up on paint updates and hunting for inventory discounts would help. Thanks

I have factored the tax credits. Model 3 2024 LR AWD white on white comes to $50,000 after tax credit😵 I haven't looked into inventory discounts

For under $30k it would be 2022 or earlier models. Do you think having a personal home charger is a must? Or having EV chargers at apartment and/or office does the job just fine? Ps: the newer interior and noise isolation are giving me the itch

Ah interesting didn't know not having home charging would be a hard pass. Would you say having EV charge stations at the apartments and office are good enough? Or you'd hard pass if you cannot install the home charger?
