Hello! My Model S was just totalled and I'm back in the market for a new EV. I thought I would just get another Model S, but I was curious about maybe getting a performance M3. Anything about the M3 that makes you want to go back to the MS?Recently sold my 2016 Model S75 for a RWD Model 3 and I knew they'd feel different but surprised at how much.
Ask away!
I like a lot about the M3 too, but some things I prefer about the MS:
Twice the cargo space
More shoulder room for 5th passenger
Possibility of 6 and 7th kid passengers
Slightly better ride
Quicker at each comparable trim
Two screens allow nav overview and turn-by-turn at the same time
Larger screen plus two screens lets you put up more info at once - AP plus nav plus media plus rear-viee cam, for example
It has a key fob - more reliable and can do summon quicker
Free supercharging
Can use CHAdeMO adapter
Sunroof that opens
Adjustable suspension
Biohazard mode available
Better looking IMO
Don't have to tell passengers how to use door handles (inside and out) as often

I used summon a ton in the S as it's so simple with the key fob. Never use it in the 3 as that couple of extra seconds opening up my phone, launching app etc. then hoping your connected becomes an obstacle.Is Summon more capable in the MS (and X?)? That’s what I heard but not sure of the differences.
Does the S have heated steering?Doing the same moving from my 70D to a 3. I road trip a lot so even though 310 Mi will be amazing, I'm thinking I will miss the Trip tracking function on the 3. The other thing will be no steering wheel heating in winter.
By the way 3 dB is double the sound level and most people with normal hearing can hear that difference; however, measuring with just a dB meter is inadequate to tell the perceived noise difference. For example a 3 dB difference at 12 kHz vs a 3 dB difference at 3 kHz is noticeably different and the latter will seem louder because of the Fletcher-Munson effect. Our ability to hear 3 kHz is much better than our ability to hear 12 kHz. It really depends on a) how the noise spectrum is distributed and b) your own hearing ability. Ever notice how women will hear you no matter how quiet you are trying to sneak in? They are more sensitive to noise than men in general due to better high frequency hearing.
