It looks like we are inching closer... https://www.teslarati.com/tesla-model-y-performance-owners-track-mode-update-musk/

The Model has had a heat pump since it was first released. Just don't want anyone to be confused.

Now just imagine if it had track mode!

Tesla will not be lowering prices in the US anytime soon and in the context of the Model Y, probably never. The floor has been permanently raised.

I owned a fully loaded X3M Comp and while some areas might be subjective, the sound system in my MYP destroys the premium HK in the X3M. It is by far the best stock sound system in any car made right now.

To each their own, but I had a 24 hour test drive of the iX and HATED it, and this is coming from a BMW brand loyalist. The styling is horrendously overdone inside and out. I was hoping the grill/frontend would grow on me, but it is horrific, like generationally horrific. The other crazy...

Would you rather carry around a 10 gallon jug that can only hold 5 gallons of water or a 5 gallon jug that can hold 5 gallons of water?

If you think depreciation is bad on the MYP, be prepared to be floored by the IX. We're talking close to 40% in the first year or so.

Where in PA? I'm being offered low 50's for my essentially brand new MYP with less than 1k miles lol

Resale values are down 20-30% since July.

Is it just me or does it feel like Elon's quote is being taken out of context a bit? Everyone is looking at it as confirmation, but he clearly said that they have had issues implementing it.

Source on the motors being maxed out? Everything I've heard in the past is that they are anywhere from 75-85% capacity, far from maxed.

I mean, they could make it faster today if they wanted to. Most speculate that the battery is still only around 70-80% of its realized potential. Not to mention adding track mode.

I've hit 11.8 in my MYP multiple times. The fact that a "professional" driver only hit 12.3 here is sketchy. Seems like a rigged comparison. That said... this is another example of why we need track mode. Ridiculous that a Genesis of all cars gets it and we don't.

Um yeah, take that offer. Here was the offer I got for my MYP with 700 miles on it: FOR SELLING 2022 Tesla Model Y Performance 4D SUV 700 miles ESTIMATED VALUE $58,300

IDENTICAL issue on my wife's Model Y. I've steamed the hell out of them and still dirty. Don't want to go too abrasive as to damage the fabric but maybe a magic eraser?

Lol, I wasn't referencing you in regards to the imbecile comment. I meant the people that view cars as appreciating assets. That said... Model S and X notwithstanding, the 3 and Y have both been at the top of their class for resale for years now. In fact I think the Y has led that category...

Forget about appreciating assets, that’s just painting with a broad and frankly imbecilic stroke. I think the thing(s) to be concerned about right now are 1) the fact that this correction is impacting Tesla significantly more than other brands (i.e. Honda/Toyota have barely been affected)...

Carmax just offered me 58k for my essentially brand new MYP. I'm not looking to flip for a profit by any means, but one of the main reasons I bought a Tesla was for the resale and knowing that I could "escape" from the car relatively easily if I wanted to. And I locked mine in two price...

Offer Date: 9/15 Company: Carvana and Vroom Region: North East US Year/Color/Model: 2022 black MYP Mileage: 1100 Offer: $58,500 from Carvana 59,900 from Vroom

So many more useful features than this. Literally bottom of the list

The reckoning is here… down 30% from last month.

62k for an MYP with 500 miles is nuts, even in this slightly depressed market. They were going for 77ish a month ago.

I’m with you on this. It’s ridiculous that it hasn’t been released yet.

Agreed. The number I've heard most is that the 2170s are at about 80% of their potential. So that would probably leave us with about 10% to be unlocked since I doubt they'd want to go full bore.

Funniest part of this thread are the people arguing that the MYP doesn't need to be fast or have better performance because it will be "dangerous". You realize how stupid that sounds when we are literally talking about the Performance variant of the car, right? Definitely some odd ducks on...

Per the article, the GT button activates drift mode. The power is available at all times.

So is it fair to say that the 2170 is tapped out at this point? It may be naive, but I find it hard to believe that Tesla would see competitors like this and just sit quietly.

LOL, what? Can't tell if you're ignorant or just trolling. The EV6 GT absolutely exists.

Bordering on ridiculous now that the MYP doesn't have some sort of track mode. EV6 GT is getting it out of the box and will probably blow the doors off the MYP. Such a missed opportunity.... https://www.caranddriver.com/reviews/a40756379/2023-kia-ev6-gt-drive/

That is ridiculous logic and shows an innate misunderstanfing of how market logistics and demand paradigms work hand in hand. Toyota and Honda have sold more Camry's and Accords than any other cars in the world, does that mean that the prices have dropped every year? Quite the contrary, as...

naivete is a hell of a thing... maybe they de-content some models or release an alternative base model, but to think that anything existing will drop in price is comical. Go look at the Accord and tell me when a new model was cheaper than the outgoing one. I'll wait

Eurospec cars having different features/options than their American counterparts isn't endemic to Tesla. This has been going on in the BMW world for decades, different markets demand different things.

Goodness, that red is absolute fire. Ceramic I assume?

My understanding is that the parcel shelf will be an optional retrofit that can be bought and installed, similar to the garage opener. I was told we should see it this month or next at latest.

My friend works at Fremont and they are not shutting down anytime soon

Someone just posted pics of their Austin Y on fb and the QC seems worse than usual. Horrific paint, speaker falling off, etc.

Tested plenty of them and yes, all garbage. Talk to me in 6 months and let me know how it’s working. You get what you pay for. I’ve owned cars that are well beyond the MYPs price point and would never again let the Amazon junk touch it. To each their own though. If you like it, that’s...

I for one, welcome the Austin LRs. Less people switching to the MYP now, which for me is a good thing. Every report/indication (from Musk himself even) is that they will be identical 2170 non structural packs, so no harm no foul.

Easy fix for a mobile service appointment. Probably about the same work involved as installing the garage opener.

The Amazon stuff is garbage, so there’s that. But yes, if you can get your hands on a good product and have cover available for curing then it is absolutely doable yourself.

All of these people pining for the full casting are going to be bummed when their car is deemed a total loss after a minor fender bender…. Can’t wait for those posts. Lol

That's very fair. Similar packages are usually in the 4k range.

If by superior, they mean cheaper to make and objectively worse performing (for now), then yes do tell.

If they are really building MYPs out of Austin days after I took delivery of my Fremont car, I’m going to be livid, lol. I waited a year for an Austin car and finally pulled the trigger.

This. If you care about the appearance and/or ease of exterior maintenance, then ceramic/PPF are no brainers. That said, it is not a necessity and I certainly wouldn't splurge for it if it is stretching the budget.

Unpopular opinion in some circles, but I really do think that the Y is significantly better looking than the 3. The larger proportions just play nicer with the lines, bulges, etc.

Come on guys, don't feed the troll, You're better than this, lol.

I love the MYP, but I would have a real hard time selling the original MY SR. Such a unicorn in price and overall availability (prob only a few thousand made). That thing may legit be a collectors item one day.

Had an overnight test drive of a GT PP a few weeks ago and the way that the car basically shuts off after you hit 60 mph is comical. I've never experienced anything like it in my life. The dealer also asked me not to try charging the car because they were "having issues" with the charge port...
