Excellent carvana experience too. It feels good to be back in an EV, now to get my home charger setup

Just bought a 2021 LR blue as well! How many miles and how much $ if you don’t mind me asking?

otgixxer 2026-03-09 17:10

I love mine, been a great car so far.

Dhuce 2026-03-09 17:36

Get the acceleration boost!

C_mac16 2026-03-09 18:16

right! just gotta save up for it

C_mac16 2026-03-09 18:17

hey nice congrats, she’s got 80k miles and got it for $21k

C_mac16 2026-03-09 18:17

any issue with wind noise on the highway?

otgixxer 2026-03-09 18:24

yeah its louder than a normal car for sure. I have gotten used to it for the most part. I'm told the aftermarket seals dont really help, so i figured meh... just learn to deal with it I guess

Ill-Law-8142 2026-03-09 19:16

It’s louder because you dont have an engine 😁

C_mac16 2026-03-09 19:26

I never thought about it that way

Cool_Medicine_5857 2026-03-09 19:49

What does that do? I’m getting my new to me 23 model 3 next week and it says I have that

Mrslyyx1 2026-03-09 20:41

makes the car go vroom vroom, but in all seriousness it does make the car go a bit faster. It unlocks more horsepower that’s held back by a paywall, if yours already has it then your car will be pretty fast compared to a normal dual motor without it or a standard!

Ok_Childhood_9694 2026-03-09 20:45

Congratulations

uzings 2026-03-09 20:46

Nice I’m currently looking at 22 lr with 70k miles for 23k, 21k is a steal

Low_Faithlessness968 2026-03-09 21:06

I bought my first EV in august 2025 after my Golf GTE’s mechatronic went to H***, i researched a lot on what to get. Was looking at Ioniq5, audi etron 55(the Q5 version), and the Model 3. i landed on a white(wrapped matt black) 2021 M3 Dual motor Long Range. What an amazing car 🤩 I am not going back to ICE cars…

rjcarr 2026-03-10 00:47

I think it unlocks like 75 horsepower and drops the 0-60 mph time by like 0.5s. I inherited it but I drive on chill 95% of the time, ha, but yeah, it's crazy fast. It's basically faster than 98% of cars on the road.

Salty_Yesterday3845 2026-03-10 01:33

I just got one from Carvana today, has been a wonderful experience so far

Eyehopeuchoke 2026-03-10 01:48

I just picked up a 2022 model y awd lr from Carvana for $26k. It has 46k miles

Middle_Way246168 2026-03-10 03:05

Welcome fams!

Dhuce 2026-03-10 14:44

Shaves .5 sec from 0-60 down to 3.5.. then you can play the Rhianna song "shut up and drive"

Cool_Medicine_5857 2026-03-10 18:10

Can I play the monologue from lighting McQueen instead? “I am speed….”

Dhuce 2026-03-10 18:57

Wow buddy now your talking performance model lol

JustSomeDude1982 2026-03-10 21:44

I'm one of those people who always has the radio cranked, so I don't even notice it 😆

KingChoppa7 2026-03-10 22:10

75 seems low. I feel like its night snd day

rjcarr 2026-03-10 22:28

I don't think the figures have been released, only people doing their own tests. From AI: > Tesla's Acceleration Boost for the Model 3 Long Range provides a performance enhancement typically estimated at approximately 50 to 100 horsepower. But remember, even if it were 100, 100 electric horses is different than petrol because there's a lot of loss in the drivetrain. So the 100 might feel like 120 or 150.

JurassicTerror 2026-03-10 23:43

I don’t see this available in the Tesla app. I went looking for it before. Did they do away with it? I have a model 3 refresh (2024).

Ryands991 2026-03-11 00:27

Get a USB Drive in it for dashcam! I was at a supercharger the other day and someone rolled up with an absolutely wrecked model 3, that said they just got the car used and were involved in a hit and run accident. She did not have a USB and the car did not save the footage as an accident.

Potential_Purpose701 2026-03-11 00:59

Congratulations

Adorable-Software-69 2026-03-11 02:47

I’m expecting them this Saturday? What happens upon arrival? Do they park it

Midnightxx1 2026-03-11 03:37

I got mine last Thursday, literally they just bring the car to you as shown in the picture, they bring the car down and let you inspect it or drive it. Once satisfied you have to show your driver’s license and proof of insurance, in my case I had yet not added the new car into my policy which they accepted with just viewing my existing policy. At last you sign some documents electronically which the delivery driver hands to you and that’s it, a simple and smooth experience.

Adorable-Software-69 2026-03-11 03:47

Cool. I’m getting this one but it’s red same wheels and white interior 🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪

Adorable-Software-69 2026-03-11 03:47

2020

Midnightxx1 2026-03-11 03:52

Awesome, enjoy it!

Dhuce 2026-03-11 10:11

I think they're waiting to sell a few more performance before bringing it to highland

AdLivid1098 2026-03-13 16:05

I bought cheap rubber door/window seals from Amazon and I don’t hear any wind noise. I hear road noises but no wind.

otgixxer 2026-03-13 16:09

I watched a few videos and they all said it was garbage and didnt make any difference. I was hoping I could install them and help with the noise.

Duh_Vaping 2026-03-14 15:44
