I am a day 1 Model 3 reservation holder that has been wondering whether to get a new S or continue to wait for the 3. I love the design of the S, extra acceleration and extra storage space is nice. However it seems the 3 has a faster touchscreen computer, longer range for me as I would get a LR 3 vs 75 or 75D S. Interior improvements like side pockets, lighted vanity mirrors, coat hangers, adjustable seatbelts are perks for the 3 but not quite a deal breaker for me. I would either be getting a 75/75D with EAP+color+vegan seats and have some inventory options which seem to be discounted a couple $ thousand and around $74-80k. If I got the 3 it would be with LR+PUP+EAP+color+wheels for a total of $56.5K. I am in no rush to get a car now as I have a extra i3 at home and I drive a 435i myself, but would consider getting the S this year to get the $7500 bonus tax incentive if it is indeed axed for sure. Financially can afford both, but put $80k as my max as I feel its foolish to spend more this early in my career (dual physician home) when I can invest elsewhere and am purchasing a home soon and planning for a family.
So my question to owners is would you still get an S over a 3 knowing the specs and seeing some early reviews? What would lead you to pick the S over the 3 again? Posted in the S forum because the 3 forums seem a bit too skewed and biased and wanted to get answers from owners. Thanks in advance!
