Video Summary

- Car has paint protection film (PPF) and ceramic tint, which saved it from scratches and paint damage.
- Aftermarket wheels increased range by 40 miles.
- All-season tires provide more comfort and more sidewall, which help improve performance in all weather conditions.
- Build quality has improved compared to earlier Tesla models. Only two factory issues were found and fixed by Tesla (bubble in the top glass and a fold in the passenger door).
- Model 3 Performance now rides better than any other Model 3, due to the adaptive suspension.
- Modern Tesla's have secret storage compartments. TParts sells storage bins, so you can easily see what you're storing.
- The car’s infotainment system is so well done.
- The car has a new bezel, which gives you more space and feels better.
- The sound system is better.
- Tesla software updates add more features.
- Over-the-air updates handle most recalls.
- An AMD Ryzen processor speeds up the display.
- Sentry Mode records events around the car.
- Owners should try full self-driving for $99/month before buying.
- Autopilot works very well.
- Stock seats clean well. But those with fabric are more difficult to clean.
- Steering wheel is ergonomic and an improvement.
- The car now has Amazon Music.
- The reviewer advises to shop around. With deals from Tesla, its recommended to get the color and interior you want, keep it for a while, and then run it until its worthless.
- Tesla's are famous for full self-driving, and that is getting better and better because there are 6 million Tesla cars on the road that they can pull data from.
- The driving dynamics and handling of the vehicle are excellent.
- The car’s design (front fascia, rear diffuser, newer shaped spoiler, performance seats, carbon fiber) helps differentiate the vehicle from other Models 3s.
- The double-paned glass helps insulate the vehicle, improving sound.
- A new software feature allows the movement of the passenger seat from the rear screen.
- A TParts wireless game controller can be hooked up to the infotainment system to use while gaming. You can use code GJEEBS to save on TParts products.
- All of this is very usable, and the infotainment, sound system and all of these different apps - of which you can move - are super useful.
- A downside to the seat material (staining the seat).
- Wheel creasing can occur. However, these can be minimized.
