    Yes I really want the Model Y for the larger and easier to get in to etc. But I love the Model 3 especially on country drives. Technically on paper I can get both but mortgage and inflation is a little of a worry

    An easy $5000 more expensive than new. and these are 1 -2 years older. So you would be better off selling it after delivery. I bet you could get a premium price for a "As Delivered" near 0 KM version with the current specs for those that cannot wait
