2026 M3P

770120437 | 2026-03-07 17:02 | 279 views

Picked up my new 2026 M3P on Monday. Coming from a 2023 M3P it’s a very nice upgrade and the build quality is significantly improved. Was stuck between the quicksilver and stealth grey. Ended up going with the stealth grey as though was a bit more aggressive and so happy with my Choice. Looks mean All tesla logos now blacked out as well which suits the car

Congrats Dude! What interior you go with? Now that I’ve gone White, not sure I could do different. Hopefully they don’t charging again for it in 2028 when I trade in my ‘24 M3P lol.

770120437 2026-03-07 17:28

Cheers dude. I went for black interior I’ve kids so the white made me a little nervous lol, You got stealth grey as well ?

I’m 55- and this is the best car I’ve ever owned by far- at least in initial quality. Hoping it will hold up for the long haul. Looks tough- especially with the blacked out emblems (I did mine aftermarket) and removed wheel inserts. I definitely think it looks better that way as well! Enjoy!

I love it. I have a 2025. I wish my badges were blacked out 🥹 question to all: what’s the the most effective way to achieve this??

770120437 2026-03-07 18:02

Yeah removing the inserts completely transforms the car IMO, first thing I did when I got it home 😃 The blue looks really nice!! Congrats man

770120437 2026-03-07 18:03

I was looking at it before I realised that it came from factory like it. You can buy blacked out caps that clip over the one on the front. Not sure about the rear though?

Cute_Conference_2262 2026-03-07 18:20

Is model 3 a good choice with kids, I keep hearing Y is better suitable in terms of space with kids.

Cute_Conference_2262 2026-03-07 18:20

Rear caps also available from spigen!

deej628 2026-03-07 18:21

Spigen makes front and rear covers! Look em up on Amazon or from their site directly!

Ultra red sister over here

770120437 2026-03-07 18:29

🔴👌 Such a nice colour!!

_______o-o_______ 2026-03-07 18:37

Do the new models include the black headliner, larger 16" screen, and turn signal stalk? I'm teetering on the edge of deciding to get the M3P later this year... and this Stealth Grey looks great!

Visible-Pay1181 2026-03-07 18:38

you put PPF on it?

Nomarhits400 2026-03-07 18:52

No PPF!!!- though I might do the front end and front quarters at some point.

Seansong82 2026-03-07 18:57

No, I’m Black on White but sorta wish I went with Grey or Quicksilver because Black is sooooo hard to maintain and not look dirty all the time lol.

patrolmanEmbiid 2026-03-07 19:06

that’s a sexy car.

buddybe1 2026-03-07 19:15

Can’t wait for these to hit their depreciation curve in 2-3 years and pick up a nice used one from an old lady/ guy. Will definitely be fun until then it’s my reliable 2023 model 3 doing the daily driving

770120437 2026-03-07 19:46

My 2022 was black and loved it although like you say nightmare to keep clean. I prob would have got another black tbh but wouldn’t have felt much like a new car if you know what I mean.

770120437 2026-03-07 19:47

Mine hasn’t got the 16” screen or the black headliner and it a brand new 26 plate As for the M3P I can highly recommend it, I’m on my second one..what a car. Great for kids as well if you have them

770120437 2026-03-07 19:57

Cheers dude 👌

wrathslayer 2026-03-07 20:04

Black headliner and 16" higher rez scree are apparently coming later this year per some of the more well known Tesla YouTubers.

Seansong82 2026-03-07 20:16

Totally lol. Enjoy the ride ✌️

fire-d-guy 2026-03-07 20:52

Sickkkkkk

770120437 2026-03-07 21:03

No I haven’t done any PPF either

770120437 2026-03-07 21:05

It’s the perfect family car for me tbh. Plenty of room for the whole family and plenty for luggage and then also perfect when I’m out on my own. Love it I’ve got a 17 year old and a 9 year old btw

770120437 2026-03-07 21:06

Yeah I did read that as well, it think the Y’s already have it ?

770120437 2026-03-07 21:07

Yeah that’s a good shout, you can defo pick up some amazing deals, and like you say once the highlands hit those prices it’s a hell of a lot of car for your money!

770120437 2026-03-07 21:07

Cheers bro. Loving it!

Separate-Dig7170 2026-03-07 21:30

Just got the 23 M3P how long did you have that before upgrading and do you think its worth it to shell out the extra cash for the refresh? It’s like another 10-12k even used for the 24’s. Beautiful whip

770120437 2026-03-07 21:44

Was a typo in my original post, my old one was a 2022 so had it 4 years. It’s a big upgrade IMO but I always lease so tbh it’s a harder choice if your forking out £10K + for it

fire-d-guy 2026-03-07 21:45

I bet! I have the 2018 M3 AWD LR (non performance) and it's still amazing and fun to drive. I do want to upgrade to a newer model year for the upgraded hardware but it doesn't make sense financially.

Saratj1 2026-03-07 22:18

That thing looks clean, man I should have got black. I saw a guy put little greenish accents I think would look great on your car. My grey looks bad with almost every color except black.

770120437 2026-03-07 22:24

Looking at the pic it does look black but this is the stealth grey .. its looks black in quite a few lights which I like (my previous M3P was black)

wrathslayer 2026-03-08 01:32

Yes. I test drove a new Y a couple weeks ago and it had the lack headliner and new screen. It looked good inside, especially with the white interior.

SuperSayainSkincare 2026-03-08 09:17

Hey Im planning to buy a new M3 Performance as well. Does it come with a turn signal stalk?

770120437 2026-03-08 09:48

yes comes with a turn signal now and also front camara

bigup7 2026-03-08 10:24

Congrats mate! Got my 26 plate Model 3 LR AWD on Friday.

770120437 2026-03-08 10:34

Cheers dude. Enjoy the car!! Is this your first Tesla ?

FamousStore150 2026-03-08 14:48

Congratulations! The M3 is a great vehicle. The day will come when I move on from my ‘21 M3P, but right now I love my car. https://preview.redd.it/7jau9kgq3ung1.jpeg?width=1083&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=674642aaab628c8d4ea70dc710598677d27fbec5

Federal_Invite_4320 2026-03-08 15:02

Congratulations on the new M3P! Welcome to the 26 M3P club! I just picked up a 26 Ultra Red M3P in January. It is an amazing car. I too plan on keeping it for the long haul. Did you put PPF on the car? I have full PPF installed. https://preview.redd.it/pz8obp486ung1.jpeg?width=5712&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6160847673c5e5dd3e5921f272e6c5a6b859f852

770120437 2026-03-08 15:58

Congrats man!! What a car No I haven’t done any PPF at all.

Suvi2k 2026-03-08 17:38

Man red calipers on the grey, silver and white variants of the performance look absolutely stunning! Did you get the tint done yourself or did it come like that with the front windows missing?

Montero_torero 2026-03-08 18:33

Stunning, dude!

Montero_torero 2026-03-08 18:35

I’ve got an used ‘23 model with 42.000 km. I think is the best car I’ve ever owned

tom_w45 2026-03-08 18:44

This is prolly (for me) the best looking Tesla ever made. Facelift M3P preferably in Black

SuperSayainSkincare 2026-03-08 19:46

Dam I actually like the button turn signals maybe I can find someway to remove it.

genesysguy 2026-03-08 20:35

Plasti-dip

MostPotential111 2026-03-08 20:47

I’m BRAND new to Tesla so I’m sorry if this is a dumb question, but you can remove the inserts? How do you do that? And second, any difference in range?

VicAltman 2026-03-08 22:26

https://preview.redd.it/fun3spmfdwng1.jpeg?width=5712&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c79e8e4928007e1104e8039eaf7347bfa275d921 Not a performance but here’s my baby 😍

770120437 2026-03-08 23:04

Yes you can just pop them out, I got some plastic tools from Amazon. As for range I’m not sure tbh but have read it does reduce range slightly

770120437 2026-03-08 23:05

👌

770120437 2026-03-08 23:08

Yeah the red callipers really pop especially on those colours and with the new warp wheels you can see them A lot better. Yes got the tints done myself. Model Y comes like this from factory so not sure why they dont do on the model 3?

Suvi2k 2026-03-09 00:30

Didn’t know the model y comes with factory tint. Why didn’t you do the front windows, legal reasons?

NoPresssure4 2026-03-09 06:14

This right here I second

Federal_Invite_4320 2026-03-09 15:40

Thanks! Keep us posted if you do, or have any questions. My car has full PPF. Have used the product for years. Treat it just like paint in terms of care and maintenance. Spoke to a TESLA senior tech and he stated this is needed due to the TESLA paint thinness and brittle nature.
