thanks for the info ]hlin07 has hit a huge sticking point. I couldn't have said it better. For an overall experience, the Model 3 Long Range is probably the best model with most of the benefits of the performance without some of the minor shortcomings of the SR+.
Other than that:
1) Test drive one and make sure Regen is at the highest setting
2) Stay in contact with your SA
3) FSD used to be cheaper when you ordered it ahead of time, that is no longer the case.
4) When evaluating your charging situation, I would recommend against getting a Tesla wall connector. If you need more than a standard outlet, have an electrician install a NEMA 14-50 in your garage or wherever you put your car.
the performance will save me about 400 in a care payment lolThe only thing is DON'T GO BEYOND YOUR MEANS. If you're coming from a Honda Accord and are stretching for Model 3 SR+, it's fine since the overall ownership cost is around the same or slightly lower (assuming your insurance company agrees). I know someone showered himself with a performance, sure it's fun to drive, but he was close to be forced to sell his car because of the monthly payments and insurance was more than anticipated, AKA outside of his budget.
Other than that, you'll love this car. Even SR+ will leave 99% of other cars in the dust when starting from stop.
yah i was going to skip it , im more interested in the monthly payment plan once you can actually use the FSDI agree with all the above. I recently went from a 2020 SR+ to a 2021 LR. My payment did jump up $200 a month about so I cut some monthly bills out in order to make sure I would be fine with the payment.
In my opinion, skip FSD as well, as Elon answered a tweet not too long ago stating it would start to be a subscription based thing early 2021. Would be worth it then for the times used like long trips, etc IMO.
im getting rid of a way more expensive care for t he model 3 performance
But are you allowed to use it without touching the steering wheel? If not, it's hardly any different than AP. You're basically paying 10 grand to show off the car can come to you. And then there's the issue when you sell the car, Tesla cancels it on the new owner.In my opinion, skip FSD as well, as Elon answered a tweet not too long ago stating it would start to be a subscription based thing early 2021.
i have a 1,000hp mustangCurious as to what car this is.
