    Model 3 Ride Comfort Poll - AWD vs P-AWD

    Hi All, Made an order for the AWD (non-performance) today (yay!) on the 18" aero wheels. Wondering if the ride comfort with the non-performance AWD would be better or the same as the performance AWD version. I assume the performance version would be a 'stiffer' suspension, for a more sporty...
