The M3LR is such a great all rounder- beautiful, sporty, very fast, comfortable, practical, great tech/ very smart, excellent sound system, great value, economical and of course has its own fantastic charging network.
Quick tip regarding the boot liner…..heat it up gently with a hair drier and you should be able to mould it back to shape.
good tip!
Great tip, thanks! 👍🏼
@@WiZe1972 you’re very welcome mate! 🙂
Thank you for the thorough review!
Thanks for watching 😊
Great video. Very informative. Thank you.
Thanks for watching 😌
Thank you for this presentation. I hope ours is from Shanghai also.
I'm getting my M3P tomorrow. I'm Zürich based. Let me know if you'd like to make a video with it ;)
Beautiful car. Lovely in white with all of the black contrast. Build quality is very good - totally acceptable and way better than the US built models.
very in depth and good vid, curious to see the cars made in BERLIN
Thank you! Same here, really curious to see if there are further improvements
Nice video. Still i do not get that even after producing this model for over 4 years, there are not able to have proper panel alignments. Especially at this price point.
What are the WIZE customizations that you're considering as I'm guessing you are thinking of some? Looks great btw
I plan to put some 20” wheels and a maxton kit next spring
At 1.58, the right side near the side mirror looks different from the left side. Not sure if its just the angle though
Not sure it's correct to say that build quality is better in Shanghai because the factory is more modern as the plant and tooling will be the same. Its more to do with the AQL in each of the factories and the quality ethos. This is symptomatic of most US cars they simply are not built as well as European Japanese or Korean cars.
How do you find insurance? I am thinking that as they cast bigger and bigger sections that they will become more expensive to repair, therefore insurance will go up to compensate this. Great video 👍
Insurance rates aren’t base on that over here, its more about the value of the car, how long have you been driving and your behavior
The castings wont be an issue with insurance. If you have crashed the car so that the casting is damaged, the casting has done its job to protect you and the car will be totalled. This is the same for cars without castings. They will be totalled aswell in that situations. Fenderbenders wont impact the castings at all. Hope that it explains the question
Also, about your trunk mat. Use a blow drier to heat it up a bit and the kink should go away ;)
The scenery is amazing! The quality of the chinese M3 looks great.
It does look very good. Had no issue with it
Apart from the mud guards and the slight misalignment of the trunk it’s not bad. No noticeable difference in paint shades either!
Exactly! I’m actually positively impressed
@@WiZe1972 its a very nice car too!
The Chinese government insisted on the highest build standards for its citizens if the Shanghai factory was going to be allowed to exist.
Then thanks to the Chinese government 😊
its literally day and night differcen vs fremont m3
At 5:50 the color's look way different
It’s actually the 11.digit in the vin number that tells where the car is made C=China F=Freemont USA 👍
Come on... Build quality of a BMW, VW, TOYOTA is not even close... When was the last time you got a Yaris for example with panel missalignments and paint issues... You are all so gendle to Tesla and their crapwork.
Go touch the plastic into the Golf 8 or Skoda Octavia (or even Audi Q4) and then do the same into the Model 3 😅
@@WiZe1972 Audi Q4 is way better not even compairable, be fair! Golf and even better Octavia will not set me back 60K! Besides both cars do not have paint issues, panel issues or interior issues on delivery date. What are you talking about? Since I started checking on Teslas I forgot the very fundamentals of what a car should be as new...
@@dmpanis Your opinion, I’ve got mine
@@WiZe1972 Quality issues on a 60K car is not an opinion. It is a fact!
Tesla is ramping up production and right now when austin texas factory and berlin factory are running the quality is just becoming close perfect in future... its fact that fremont made cars have worse quality and more panel gaps than shanghai factory but now they have austin factory which is new and will be much much better quality cars. Also fremont factory is not so optimized factory which is the reason for bad quality. pretty sure in future when austin texas is doing volume production they will optimize fremont or rebuilt it etc
Go back to Audi.
What’s the point of saying that.. I think that he does whatever he wants, at the end it’s his car not yourse…
@@alexrodriguez270 better build quality and shut line tolerances are generally better.

Build quality and structure solidity better with Audi vehicles
@@Cookie2k 5% better build quality with Audi, but then at least 50% worse efficiency, lower range, limited, old and laggy software and much slower 0-100km/h. You need to be crazy to go with Audi for double the price. Heck, i wouldnt go with Audi even with same price point...
