Last Friday placed order for RWD, this Tuesday submitted LOU to Tesla and DA replied me to patiently waiting for VIN number assignment. Anyone has any idea roughly how long it'll take to get VIN number assigned?

And in the meantime, should I proceed to sign loan agreement without VIN number (or are we able to at all)? About the insurance, just gotten quotation, when is the good time for me to make payment for the insurance? Sorry if question is noob, first timer need some advices.

Do you think Tesla will adjust the price down soon ? Both usd and rmb have been depreciated against myr for more than 5%

You get savings on loan interests not the car price… your calculation is incorrect. The car price is the same, starts from RM181,000, with or without 0%. With 0% promo, the total amount you paid (DP + Loan Amount) is exactly the car price. Without 0% promo the total amount would be more than the car price (DP + Loan Amount + Interests).

Means nothing. Its better for them to just drop rrp prices like in Australia (we usually follow Australia pricing since the start of tesla here)

I see. Not too bad also. But can make more worth of my money if 10% dp with 9 year loan since 0% interest.

go floor the hardest u can. its ur hard earn money afterall. just make sure u avoid accident, as we only have 1 life.

hi all, I have just received my VIN as well, M3 SR. Just wondering, what is the typical time frame from VIN allocation to delivery? is it 2-3 weeks?

Also, quoted 10k sum assured for windscreen from Etiqa, is that a reasonable amount? Thanks!

Overall it was smooth. I arrived 40 mins ahead of my scheduled, but they allowed me to check in early, which was nice. After a 5mins or so quick briefing we were shown to our cars.

If i would have to point 1 feedback, it would be that they didnt allocate enough DA/Staff to guide us through the car's features. There were around 6-7 new owners that day buy only 3 available staff, one of whom was a newcomer. Thankfully, i had done my own research and was already quite familiar with the car's operation, so I only had a few quick questions before i was on my way. Car was flawless btw.

Saw a few ultra red performance, it was glorious. Look even better under the sun. The black and quicksilver is not what i expected though. If i had to rank the colors from best to worst.
1. Ultra Red
2. White & Blue
3. Black & Quicksilver

I have 2 questions on the Tesla App

1. Why I'm not seeing the upgrade option for EAP / FSD in the Tesla app? I'm only seeing the premium connectivity subscription option, but not seeing EAP / FSD at all.

2. Why am I not able to use the Trip Planner for navigation in the app's "Location"? Once I clicked on destination, it shows error "This feature is not available in this region."

Any sifus has any ideas on the above?

Tesla's FSD is still classified as L2...
I understand FSD is not yet legal here. I believe EAP is legal to use however.

Just wondering why isn't the subscription options available in the app, but you can actually purchase them during initial car ordering at the website.
Guess we have to wait until the day they release it as an subscription option in M'sia.

Not confused. FSD has never reach L3, although it works like L3/4 with the current version but it’s not yet. Do a simple google search.

There is some fake news going around claiming that EV can be hacked into and turned into a bomb. Something to do with pagers exploding apparently.

Please take note that Tesla invest a lot in cybersecurity to ensure the system is secured. They also have a bug bounty program which rewards people who find vulnerabilities.

So if there is any bugs I'm sure they will patch it up fairly quickly.

I got no luck all the TDC i see always full 

Ok that makes sense but that means that China's CLTC which claims to be using the benchmark for city driving is even more ridiculous (I heard some reviewers say that China's CLTC/NEDC were meant for China city driving conditions).

Tesla is also cheating customers by using the higher WLTP range which is unattainable in their promo materials. Nowadays cannot trust any companies.

Finally pulled the trigger on M3 LR after a lengthy consideration.

Would like to ask few more questions here.

- Have gotten the VIN but not the motor number. How long is the waiting period between VIN and motor number assignment?
- Anyone has gotten the metallic sputtered tint like Vkool and IRIS pro? Does it impact GPS/ mobile signal?
- What are the tested and must have accessories?
- Charging practice for LR to reduce battery degradation. 80% is the recommended daily limit for LR, but some well-known youtubers mentioned even lower limit like 70% or even 60% if only doing frequent short trips daily. Would like to hear the opinion from actual owners

Any news if tesla my will lower prices just like tesla sg?

Arrive just before mall opens up... other than that is just knowing people who is leaving and you grab their spot, else just roll a dice 

I noticed some free chargers require you to bring own cable.
But which ones on shopee/lzd is good?
Also, is our tesla charging at 16A? So get those 11kw 16a is good enough?

If the car "detected" there's obstacle in front, it would gave warning beeps.

If sudden slow down, like my case, it was due to the speed limit while going under the overhead pass. The speed limit was a hard impose, meaning you can only go 10km/h max over the limit.

The LDP one, I think it was reduced to 50 km/h, or even certain stretch.

If you look in the manual, it says COP is just for user comfort. Not for the taking care of the car.

Up to you, this is what is stated in owner's manual.

"Cabin Overheat Protection prevents the cabin from getting too hot in scorching ambient conditions. While not necessary to activate whenever you leave Model 3, the climate control system can reduce and maintain the temperature of your vehicle’s cabin. This can prevent the cabin from getting too hot after leaving it parked in the sun, making the vehicle more comfortable when you return. Cabin Overheat Protection may take up to 15 minutes to enable once you exit the vehicle. This feature is intended for passenger comfort and has no impact on the reliability of your vehicle's components."
