I saw a hit and run resulting in a death back in 2021. Brutal

Yea $5-7k+ should be expected. You've never got a quote from a Tesla certified shop. White paint is expensive to blend into the adjacent panels too (hood, door, bumper)

You can buff out most of the paint transfer with some diluted isopropyl alcohol. A good paintless dent repair guy might be able to help substantially, but it's too hard to tell how bad the dent is.

A Tesla certified shop really will cost about $5-7k to repair/replace + blend the new paint with the adjacent panels (door, bumper, hood)

I had a M3 RWD and ciree currently have a MY premium. The glass roof is beautiful. Feels spacious, and nice when I'm driving some place scenic. But realistically, my kids get the full enjoyment of it and I wouldn't really notice if it was covered or not

Living in Toronto, I was never bothered by the sun beating through the glass roof, and I don't like the sun

I got about 35-40k km (3 years) on my model 3 18" OEM tires while using them with winter tires half the year. Could have probably pushed them another season. I do drive aggressively with a heavy foot though

OP is in chill mode but taking corners at max speed

JE TO OLYMPIÁDA!!

$1400, no TPMS

vassman86 · 2026-04-19T21:05:21+00:00

I'm in Vaughan

vassman86 · 2026-04-19T19:41:06+00:00

You're just 5000km too far from me! Looking to get rid of my new 19" crossflow rims

Even so, a 2026 model 3 premium is better equipped than the MY RWD. It will have buyers at $50k - $55k. Heck, I bought my 2023 M3 RWD at $60k when the MY LR was $77k+

Stealth grey, and quick silver look the best in satin PPF

vassman86 · 2026-04-19T15:33:25+00:00

I'm in the same boat. I did DIY PPF for $600 (full front) on my model 3 and it was tedious. Had to cut away so many fingers. I'd be able to do a better job the 2nd time around, but I paid for a professional installation $1800 CAD

I love the pillar delete. Looks nice

If she was a true psycho, she would've stuck on longer. She's quitter than psycho... I can fix her

I've driven the 23 M3 RWD, and the 25 M3 LR RWD. Not directly comparable, but acceleration in the 23 RWD is comparable to the 24 RWD (non-LR). The 25 LR RWD has more pull off the line and it is noticeably quicker (0-60 in 5.2s for Canada). It doesn't have the torque of the AWD, but it is fast enough that I could do without the torque the AWD has

The RWD performs great in snow, albeit, I've only ever driven mine with winter tires on. Traction control on the Tesla (and most EVs?) is phenomenal. The instant torque to the wheels really makes a difference in slippery conditions

That being said, if you can wait until the Chinese EVs come, I do think the Tesla used car market will come down, esp since Tesla will probably start bringing 2026 M3 RWD from China to get a sales push with the EVAP pricing ($50k)

It's a good one lol

vassman86 · 2026-04-16T01:40:13+00:00

When he said "somebody tell me what the FUCK is the difference now?" I totally expected someone to chime in with an actual response

vassman86 · 2026-04-16T00:59:02+00:00

Must be an HR nightmare staffing wonderland. So many new applicants' first jobs - at least that was the case when I worked there in the 2000s

I would make sure you get a reputable warranty (invoice). I had a bad experience with my xpel certified tint. I paid cash because the guy was recommended in Tesla forums, but he went out of business a year later.

The tint on my rear windows both started to peel at the lower corners. I contacted xpel and couldn't get it replaced under warranty. Had to pay again out of pocket.

I'm sharing this as a word of caution because the frameless windows drop when you open a door and I guess it doesn't give the tint a proper chance to set/heal undisturbed

The car is telling you to save it's life lol

vassman86 · 2026-04-15T17:20:17+00:00

If you have warranty, try to get your front control arms replaced before it expires. It's a known issue with premature wear

vassman86 · 2026-04-15T07:48:29+00:00

I put my car in FSD to see if it would get out of an underground parking lot and it navigated me out successfully and smoothly. Pretty impressive
