I appreciate your feedback. I want to clarify that I didn't intend to click-bait with this video. I hate click-bait videos too. Your input has been incredibly valuable, and I will definitely consider it for my future videos.
you bought the wrong car if you start complaining about the quality issues. Stop comparing with cars that are 100k or 200k against 55k car before tax incentive. Tesla always got issues with their quality, but they are getting better year over year. Tesla Model 3 is not a hatchback, and never was. I don't know why you even complaining about this. Lastly, just pay $99 a year and call it a day. Dude, that's not even cost of couple coffees per month.
You are right about Tesla getting better year over year which I do address in the video but the quality still isn't completely dialed in. Being a new Tesla owner these quality issues are foreign to me and I feel even dodge being the budget brand they are have their build quality dialed in this time around. Super cars definitely wasn't the best comparison but you can definitely purchase a lightly used i8 or Porsche for less than a new model 3 performance and get better build quality. Lastly, I have a rather unique use case when it comes to using a hotspot with the car. Maybe I should make a video on that. The other thing is I'm tired of subscriptions and otherwise free services I could use on my phone shouldn't be paywalled unless it offered more like Amazon prime. For example if Tesla offered free Netflix or Prime with their subscription then I would justify the cost- hell I'd pay $20/mo for it but currently it doesn't really offer anything extra that I could otherwise use my phone for.
@@johnkim3018 so you saying unless you pay 100k you should get half ass product?
That's crazy. They've made cars since 2008. Get off your knees, you'll realize it's a near 60k car, there needs to be a standard, every right to complain about QC. Maybe why pay $99 when you got free hotspot. Have you even worked a day in your life? You must be a nepo baby or a keyboard warrior.
@@margauxlowery4324 comparing cars that are not in the same price range or tax bracket is not fair to say the least.
@@lu.sheng_ you are stupid. Try to compare tesla to similar 60 grand ICE car. Tesla has pros and cons. Quality is mediocre.
From all you said ... your the problem not the car 😂😂😂
What can I say I am very particular when it comes to cars lol- but, like I said in the video I do genuinely enjoy the car despite any flaws or opinions I have about it.
Calling a safety feature like a camera that shows exactly what's in your blind spot redundant might be the most idiotic thing i've ever heard.
Got to say, the things you 'hate' are at best dislikes. The use of the word hate is so overused.
I agree, and I also believe hate is subjective and like I said in the video I do actually enjoy this car and I plan to create another video about some things I love about the car but these are the 5 things hate currently.
Yes….it IS a nitpick. You are the only TH-camr who I’ve heard complain about the seats!
The seats are comfortable, no doubt. However, my main concern is with the bolstering-particularly how it will hold up over time with the friction from sliding in and out of the car. I'm hoping maybe that I could adjust my easy entry settings to help with that.
Stupid clickbait BS. No thanks.
This sounds like a you problem. I'm having a blast in my 2024 M3P.
Yeah... I'm pretty particular when it comes to not only cars but everything else in between so my opinions can be a bit decisive. I'm also having a blast in my M3P and I'll definitely have more positive things to say in a future video as well as my 1 month review of the car.
I am so confused on some of the issues this guy have. Paint, i understand but rest of it was just strange.
Others have voiced concern about the bolstering being perhaps too much too fit a wide variety of frame sizes so I think your complaint is valid and worth mentioning. Thanks for sharing your thoughts as we’re contemplating the purchase of one. Best,
Thanks for watching and yeah, the bolstering is pretty tight in this car so yes it is a rather valid thing to point out when considering buying a new performance model. My advice would just be to test drive one in your area and see how it fits you.
This video is hilarious because you're just doing quirky stupid shit.. hotspoting your phone... not wanting to see whats in your blind spot... Did you research the car? Why did you make this purchase lol...
Fair point, I have my reasons for pointing out the items discussed in the video. Overall I actually do enjoy this car despite the flaws and my personal opinions, and when deciding to purchase the car it was the only car that fit all of my requirements- being a fast daily with a smooth ride which it does indeed over deliver on my expectations there.
Def nit picking and can’t compare to 720s or i8. I sold my 2021 plaid S for the 2024 M3P and love it. Hands down best bang for you buck out there!
I totally agree. BMW and Mclaren have been around much longer than Tesla. I think being a newer car company they are definitely doing their best and in most cases going above and beyond to ensure their customers have a great experience by offering mobile appointment to fix issues. I love my M3P and I do believe there is no other car like it for the price which is why I bought this car. It's like the jack of all trades.
Please have some actual complaints if you're going to put "Hate" in the title to describe a product.
wait a moment, a bmw I8 to the price of a TM3 performance ??? which world are u living in, an I8 is around 2.3 times the price of the TM3 how did u get it to 60k ?
I should of specified but a used i8 can be bought for under $60k. The i8 I bought was used with about 25k miles on it.
@@BlackbirdProductions ??? how you can get it at 60k with only 25k miles while the base price is 140k minimum ?
did u use the influence of your channel or something like that to get it at this price ?
and even with that you're still comparing a 60k TM3 to a 140k I8 in terms of build quality. I have a 2019 model S and the build quality is more than acceptable, theres's always some minor defaults but nothing that you can see instantly when going in the car.
@fracorbas that's when it was new
@@BlackbirdProductions yeah, that's what I'm talking about, you're comparing a used I8 with a brand new TM3, that's nonsense.
if you wanted to compare with a BMW try comparing it with a new M2 (even this one is too expensive).
You're comparing different type of cars for different lifestyle.
Tesla is more "it works, it's simple and it's fun", the I8 is like "the perfection in every single space". The first one need almost no repair, the second one will have one every 20k Km...
@@fracorbas The repair part simply isn't true, but I do get where you're coming from. The i8 is a "super car" that offers a drastically different experience than a Tesla. The other thing I thought about was that BMW has been around much longer than Tesla. Tesla is still a very young company in comparison so the two can't really be compared which makes sense to me now.
I have the refreshed M3 LR and I absolutely love it. My first Tesla. Have it over 4 months. No issues no squeaks rattles or creaks. Runs great. Just enjoy your car. It's faster than 99.9 percent of cars out there.
Why did you get the worst color for the M3P? That’s the consensus in the entire Tesla community, the Tesla black is a non-metallic, and has the least coats out of all the color options. If you wanted a dark color, you should just get stealth grey. Multicoat and metallic. But for m3p, the red is the correct choice. Either way, the rest of the complaints and comparisons are ridiculous.
I Already put 9500 miles on my 2024 LR. Just got back from a 2800 mile round trip. Here is a real opinion, not whiny bs..
Pros: super comfortable, nice seats & interior, amazing sound system, fun to drive, fast!
Cons: Autosteer can be very whiny, slight wind noise from driver side window, can’t turn off rear display, I still miss turn signal stalks. 9.5/10
Negative reviews always get the 'clicks', everyone knows that. It's all about the money.
Mine begun to have a little ticking sound, have you had that issues? It’s maybe from the seats?
No, I haven't heard any sounds like that yet.
@@BlackbirdProductions I found out it’s the bucket seat’s squeaking 💺
I'm close to two months with my '24 M3P. I love the car. I was lucky with the build quality. I only took it into service to get the game apps to download properly which I was almost embarrassed about-but it worked out as a way to become familiar with the service center.
My three gripes:
(1) The turn signal buttons can occasional jam. It happens more often with my wife who has shorter fingers than I do. It can a several hard presses to unjam.
(2) The phone charges tend to overheat my iphone. I've tried rotating the phone upside down but still no luck. I wish Tesla would dump whatever Qi charger it is using and switch to MagSafe to make sure the charging lines up perfectly.
(3) Dandruff can get stuck in the seat vent holes. Wiping doesn't work. Vacuuming mostly works but not perfect. I may need some kind of soft brush.
I heard about turn signals getting stuck. Thankfully that hasn't happened to me but if it does I'll for sure be scheduling a service appointment because despite what everyone says I actually love the turn signal buttons.
I’ve seen the orange peel paint in a few videos and was a bit concerned about it.
I was in the Tesla showroom earlier this week and checked out their showroom and demonstrator cars. None of them had this problem.
I’m EU based so we get German and Chinese built cars. I’ve ordered an Ultra Red M3P and would honestly reject the car if it turned up with paint like that having paid an extra 2K for the option.
You should try asking your service advisor where your model is being built, but if it's ultra red I can't imagine the orange peel being as noticeable as it might be on a black car especially since their ultra red is a multi coat paint with a darker red layer on top
My Tesla Model 3 Performance 2024 the light bar on the driver's door has those defects. Just had my new car for a couple of weeks. I noticed the defects of the light bar in bright sunlight one day. I think it's manufacturing defects in the plastic, not the adhesive. 2 of my defects are in the plastic itself using a magnifying glass.. At night with a light bar on I can't even see the defects, but off yes I can. My trunk trim right side has fallen. I have to go in for service for that. Also noticed after delivery the front splitter has scuffs on it underneath on the sides, not the front. Online posts by other customers regarding scuffs I think are caused by delivery trucks. Didn't notice until I got in my cool garage. It was like 100 degrees on black asphalt delivery day so I didn't lay on the ground, I should have. The rest of the car is OK. I actually bought a $17 assist aid to help get in & out of the car. The car cane attaches to the door latch & makes it easier to get over the bolstering of the seat. I also did a Stealth PPF wrap on my black car.
Yeah... I'm not 100% sure about the light bar. I could put in a service request for it but I'm not sure what good it will do if it happens again. I haven't seen any manufacturing defects in any of the plastics. I had my trunk molding replaced under warranty which is something I talked about in another video. The stealth black PPF I'm sure looks pretty cool. I didn't mention it in any of my videos yet, but I did get full front clear PPF installed on my Tesla which is still curing but I'm taking the car to get the PPF install inspected and adjusted tomorrow since there are some edges coming up and they may have to redo the mirrors. So we'll see with that.
a tad over touchy responses to your video. It’s great that you are pointing out the details, overall the model 3 has come on leaps and bounds so touchy fanboys can now relax. It’s a fab car but has room for improvement
Totally agree. I'm happy you resonated with some of the details discussed in my video. Most are nit picky and rather decisive so I plan to create something more clear and concise for next time.
I have one for a few weeks now (build in China) I have none of these quaility issues. I don't have a single flaw on the car.
Yeah... that's what I'm hearing more and more about. I'll just have to settle with what I have. Which I definitely can look past the flaws since overall it is a nice car.
well yes but the fremont cars get more hp 😮
@@jonfrench7133 Yes. But because of the battery. The drives have the same power. Its said to have a better endurance while driving hot. I don't know if its true.
@@desasch1687 that’s definitely the case, goes into the tesla version of limp mode after 2 hot laps. Crap as a track car but i never track my cars or irrelevant, plus in the UK running hot not exactly an issue
Yes, I did hear the batteries are better for the Fremont built cars and apparently the Chinese built cars are using an older battery platform with slightly less range which is so odd to me since they seem to have top notch quality in every other part of the car.
Quitting this video midway. Not good.
Not watching this based off the comments. Do better and try not to clickbait.
Fair enough, I hate clickbait too, but while putting this video together I didn't think it would be so decisive. I'll take this feedback into consideration in the future. Thank you for your feedback otherwise.
Wow... at 9:56 that orange peel paint job has more orange peel than the orange peels from my orange.
Yeah... it's a common thing with all Tesla's but not really that noticeable in person.
Hotspotting your phone? Why? the connection is free in the Tesla! I am not surprised the technician looked at you confused...so am I!! If you mean you want access to the premium content, why should Tesla allow you to access their services through your plan?? You want their services, you pay for their plan!
My use case is rather unique and somewhat complex and it's why I didn't explain it in the video but essentially I'd like to run all of the internet traffic coming from my Tesla through my self-hosted vpn for privacy and security reasons. Additionally I don't think standard connectivity includes stuff like Spotify since it requires the car to be connected to an internet signal.
@@BlackbirdProductions not really fair to 'hate' something that was never available though, is it?
I kinda feel bad for you 😂 you are getting cooked in the comments. I love my refreshed M3 LR. I think these are nit picks. I do enjoy how your not getting defensive in the back and forth. So there is that 😎👍🏻
I have pretty thick skin and some of the comments are good feedback that I do plan to take into consideration for future content.
TLDR: Personal grievances about minor details. A single instance issue with the paint on his vehicle. Lightstrip bubbling when car is placed repeatedly in extreme heat.
Side note: Back up from your mic bro jesus. Also work on segmenting your different points so things don't feel like a run on sentence. Maybe start putting defined tabs in your video(s) so people can get a better idea of the individual points you're trying to get across.
Thank you for providing this feedback. Definitely not my best video. I will take your points into consideration for future videos.
Well it's a 500+ horsepower car with acceleration times that you couldn't get even in million dollar supercars if you go back a few years. It also gives a M3 a run for its money now with the new suspension setup and better brakes. And that's not easy to do if you've ever owned a M3 you'd know. I'm not a big EV guy. I don't think I even like them that much but what Tesla have done here is pretty impressive. Lamborghini Revuelto levels of performance but without the price. I'm not sure that I would buy it but the numbers don't lie. I understand the annoyances though. Tesla should sort that. Still I don't know that I would complain that much about a 500 horsepower monster like this. You ever try an early 90s Nissan Skyline GTR? That was a rough car. Monster performance but rough as guts. We've come a long way since then. Put new brakes on this and take it to the track. For every day I think maybe the long range model is a better choice I don't know.
I have seen some of the Skyline GTR's before, but never once been behind the wheel of one. I think they are brilliant cars if you can find a good deal on one, but the power of this Tesla is something I will be highlighting in my next video because it truly is next level compared to everything else out there and unmatched for the price. I also have a friend that owns a new McLaren Artura so if you're interested in super cars definitely stay tuned!
@@BlackbirdProductions They're a bit rare here because they weren't exported until after 2010 I think or somewhere around there. But I lived in Australia during the late 90s and all of 2000s and they were plentiful there. All of my mates had RX7's and WRX's and stuff but there were a few GTRs too. Mine was one of them. I think it was about 30 grand I paid or maybe a little less I can't remember. The R32 version. It was cool but definitely a rough car. That Tesla looks way more refined and a car you could live with day to day. One of the reasons I switched to BMW was they're still a lot of fun but the level of refinement was far beyond what the GTR was. It's interesting Tesla have kind of marketed that Model 3 Performance into what could be a day to day car. I wish I had 500 horsepower in the my GTR and that it was a better daily so when I see the Tesla videos it's like oh yeah I get it. Not perfect but 500 horsepower in a car that's 50 grand that's pretty good. Yeah it's not as refined as BMW or Porsche but it's also a little cheaper and still okay for the most part. Like I said good times we're living in because this simply wasn't possible even just ten or so years ago man.
@Screaming-Trees oh yeah definitely good times we're living in for cars! Here rx7's and now also GTR's are a dime a dozen. I see them at local car meets and cars and coffee all the time here but every build is unique that is what makes them so cool to me. The reason I settled on the model 3 performance is because for the price it gives you everything you need. Power, distinctive styling, practicality, and it also drives super smooth when you want it to. I couldn't think of anything at the time of my purchase that could meet so many needs in a single car.
@@BlackbirdProductions Nice one. Those 90s and even like, late 80s sports cars were pretty cool man. Just kind of rough like I already said. Good to know they've proliferated since in spite of them not being exported for a long time. To certain markets I mean. Yeah this Model 3 thing seems like a good all 'rounder really. Like I said if it's a performance/sports car then nothing really else should matter but the performance. The GTR interior rattled and the glove box was fucked and it was all around kind of shit as a daily car. If I could have afforded another car I would have bought it and just kept the GTR as a sports car. Anyway it was fine but compared to levels of refinement you get today even in a shitty Tesla (by shitty I'm just reflecting on your comments about build quality) it was pretty rough. I can see why you went Model 3 performance. It's the car I wanted back in the late 90s but it wasn't available.
@@Screaming-Trees Yeah I felt the same way with my i8. The car was a perfect daily, but it was a show car which elicited show car problems like unwanted attention, less than stellar storage, and overall not as practical, but I have a number of personal reasons I sold it as well. Overall, I'm happy with my purchase though and if I want to go back to gas I might either get another i8 or another motorcycle in the future.
Please watch 'How To Reduce Plosives In Your Recordings' by Podcastage2. The plosives were too much.
That's good feedback, I'm still trying to dial in this new mic. I'll take a look at that.
You can say you weren't trying to Click Bait, but simply saying it doent make it true. 😂
I'm going to give you a like but some of thsoe were a stretch bro 😅
I appreciate it. This definitely wasn't my best video and with the feedback I received I do plan to take the points into consideration for future content.
Not a good video and I don’t even own a tesla *unsubbed*
Thank God we have Chinese and they will give tesla run for the money.
I hear the BYD is doing very well that market. It's a shame the states won't allow them to come over seas.
@@BlackbirdProductions they can prevent them only so long…
@@margauxlowery4324 Agreed
I LOOOVVVVE the automatic blindspot cameras! You shouldn't be darting into lanes. You signal before you change lanes
I do signal before changing lanes. The only difference is I don't use the automatic blindspot cameras because in my opinion they are distracting. Instead, I just look out of my rear view mirrors and use the new blindspot indicators in the speakers.
@@BlackbirdProductions whatever you prefer. Its nice to have options
Sell the car and buy something else.
It’s the best car I’ve ever owned by far.
Unsubscribe
I stopped watching when he was comparing a 50k car with the most advanced tech in any vehicle with a 200k dollar ICE car from 2014. He even says those would be comparable. Is he delusional or something? Or comparing a mass produced vehicle with a McLaren?
Sorry, I should have clarified. Cost wise they are comparable in today’s prices since the i8 depreciated to rock bottom and you can buy a used one for the same price as a new M3P, but after reviewing the other comments and the video I still don’t believe they are comparable since the i8 is more of a show car with some practicality but not as versatile as a Tesla.
Sounds like you are too snobby for a Tesla, time to go back to Lexus and BMW bro
The choppy editing and the out of sync audio are super distracting. Had to quit the video midway.
Sorry about that. This definitely wasn't my best video, and I'm working towards providing better more consistent quality along with more organized and valid content.
@@BlackbirdProductions Other than those fixable problems, the video production is pretty good. Keep pushing, I see your channel doing great things.
What did i just watch god damn
Your acting like a little ... well.. you know!
Quality of USA made teslas are horrible.
Yeah that's what I hear. They are great cars, I just hope they get the quality completely dialed in sooner than later. I understand not every car is perfect but this is a brand new car in 2024 with 2008 dodge quailty issues.
They actually are not horrible quality at all.
