Can't decide: New Long Range Model S or used Plaid?

Can't make out what wheels these are?

Forgeline all

Do you used. This is my first EV and I'm not looking for deals. I'm looking for what makes me happy and that's a new Plaid with Track Pack, adjustable camber arms, fully Xpel'ed and top shelf forged wheels.

congrats
Was just giving some advice that there is nothing wrong with buying a used Tesla under warranty, no different than buying a used ice vehicle.

Nothing wrong to you. Wrong to me. No worries.

Used low mile PLAIDS can be had for less than 70K now. That’s a ton of technology and bang for your buck for the price.

This is the move. If you can wait maybe a couple more months or even late next year the savings could be even better! Who knows what type of price cuts the X/S will receive

I have 4 or 5 friends with Plaids, they beat on them constantly, I would be concerned buying a used plaid for this reason.

I drive mine in chill mode 99% of the time. Haven't even used Cheetah mode or launched it for that matter. I really have to watch myself with the power. I have my moments.

The owners I know that have Plaids definitely drive them less aggressively than the peeps I know who have AMG and M model cars.

Hey all, thanks again for the feedback, I went with the used Plaid. Love it. Now I am ruined, I can never not have a plaid lol. Now just looking at bigger brakes, dont plan on tracking the car, but I want the brakes nonetheless.

Also, Ive been keeping it in Chill mode most of the time.

Track Pack brakes are a must. It's like skipping leg day. I wouldn't own one without.

Yall know if they fit on the 19" wheels? I want to be able to swap wheels back and forth for long trips if needed. Also, I need bigger wheels!! HAHA. But first, brakes.

They will clear aftermarket 19" wheels made to accommodate BBK's.
