M3P ordered

psvase | 2025-12-24 06:06 | 170 views

Finally ordered a Model 3 Performance! I can’t wait for the delivery. The Diamond Black color with the performance model looks amazing. Btw, are those all-weather mats etc. really necessary? Any tips & tricks from highland Model 3 Performance owners are welcome.

Grats! Yes the stock removable carpets don't stay in it's place and will start curling where the dead pedal is. But honestly the all weather floor mats are so much nicer anyway - much easier to keep the car clean. I use the 3d max kigu ones and I like them a lot, but they're sorta expensive. Maybe something less expensive on Amazon might do the job still?

psvase 2025-12-24 06:36

Yeah, I’ll order those mats then. I don’t think the original all-weather mats from Tesla store are really worth that much.

I had terrible luck with these wheels specifically. If you drive a lot and are anywhere with potholes, either subscribe to the wheel and tire protection plan from Tesla or buy some new wheels. Cracked one, bent another within 15k miles, never done that before. I upgraded to some Road Warriors from Unplugged Performance and expect to never have issues again. If you're at all interested in them, you get $1k off if you send them back your OEM wheels in perfect condition, so do it right away before you curb them 😉

Nice! Not waiting for the 16” UHD Display and Vehicle Load Charging?

psvase 2025-12-24 08:10

That is indeed a problem. Also with the price of the rims/wheels at 20” size is worth the insurance.

Look at the 3W all weather Mats, got them in my M3. Absolutely brilliant!

Jazzlike-Tale-3595 2025-12-24 09:42

Stock mats are trash. Definitely worth the upgrade

Jupiterringzz 2025-12-24 12:56

Congrats! Best car decision. You won’t regret it. I took off the caps on the rims. Looks much better.

psvase 2025-12-24 12:57

Thanks for the tip!

jcreed77 2025-12-24 13:05

What’s load charging? This coming to a future model?

RobertDSlagger 2025-12-24 13:20

The MYP has it, can charge/power other things off the tesla using the charge port

My new 2025 Highland didn’t even come with the carpet mats — which I thought was strange but I would’ve tossed them and replaced them with WeatherTech mats anyway lol

osuljj84 2025-12-24 15:15

Is there a rumored eta on this?

actuallylemoncurd 2025-12-24 16:06

Did you get 19 or 20in UP RW’s?

Honest_Annual8802 2025-12-24 16:12

Have the exact same config. Love it realy much. I’m so happy I went for the performance one. Puts a smile on my face every single time I look at it. Floor mats are a must have. I got the Taptes ones from Amazon. They like 180€ including a mat for trunk and frunk plus seats. They are really nice. For wheels, take the big aero caps out and leave the small ones in. Enjoy

Yea. I got 2nd tier mats bc they were about $120 I think. Just front and back floor. They're textured, protective, and look ok; but drivers mat has slightly warped and slides out of position an inch or 2 each time. Not bad but shoulda gone M3. ah well no biggie 😒

TonedBioelectricity 2025-12-24 16:48

19s for comfort, I road trip a ton. I was very worried they would look too small on the car coming from 20s but I honestly can't tell at all, they look great.

actuallylemoncurd 2025-12-24 16:48

That’s awesome. Nobody has photos of 19 UP RW’s on a perf, can you please post a photo?

1Madarchod 2025-12-24 18:24

Likely Q1. It’s already on China M3P

osuljj84 2025-12-24 18:27

Good to know.. ty

AJHenderson 2025-12-24 19:38

Note that taking off the caps costs range.

psvase 2025-12-24 19:46

Well, if those will arrive on Q1 cars I might or might not get them. Definitely not a dealbreaker for me, the new front camera is more important.

dragonovus 2025-12-24 21:18

Feb 2026 is super late?

Bakura_1993 2025-12-24 21:32

I thought this wasn't coming to the M3P, just took delivery 2 days ago.. at least I got the turn signal stalk, front camera, bigger battery and black emblems. Could you give me a link for the confirmation of QHD for China Model 3 Performance? Hopefully I could retrofit the screen later on.

Sfkn123 2025-12-25 00:26

https://www.tesla.cn/model3-performance >15.4-inch central touchscreen Doesn't look like it has the new screen. Edit: of course when I googled to see where this rumor came from, first search result was from people on Reddit telling you that it doesn't come with the new screen hmm https://www.reddit.com/r/TeslaModel3/comments/1p0dk30/new_model_3_performance_2026_spotted_in_china/npkn407/

psvase 2025-12-25 07:10

Yes, it is. It’s the earliest possible estimation right now. Maybe the reason lies with the upgrades?

Do people typically remove the carpet mats before installing the all season mats?

Sfkn123 2025-12-25 13:25

Yes! The all season mats otherwise doesn't sit properly.

Electrical_River6978 2025-12-25 17:27

I recommend to add Front grille to protect the radiator. That'll be appreciated in the long run. Google it and easy to install.

psvase 2025-12-25 17:29

Thank you, I knew some people put those on pre-Juniper MY’s.

Sorry-War1862 2025-12-25 18:20

Best car I’ve ever had, insanely ridiculously fast, there is no reason I should be able to race mclarens and win, while having every luxury feature u could want in a car

dragonovus 2025-12-26 02:48

Yea I think mid January would be the correct timing 😊

hteng 2025-12-26 09:51

Get some rim protectors / covers, I scraped mine within a week of taking delivery, completely avoidable. That said, I also got rock chip damage on one of the wheel spokes, don’t even know how it got scraped.

Hot-Accountant-4425 2025-12-26 17:57

Welcome to the club… 100% grab the mats, the carpets are thinner than a slice of salami…

Hot-Accountant-4425 2025-12-26 17:58

My tossed them right over the carpets… seem fine to me…
