When I was getting a quote from progressive and geico, they didn't have different trim selections for Model 3. It was just model 3 and there wasn't any way to quote for specific trim like either performance or long range.
Is this normal? or it might change based on VIN?
In 2018 and 2019 all AWD versions, both LR and P, had the same VIN code.
As of 2020 P has its own.
I have been seeing people mention "stealth" version. What exactly stealth model 3 is?
So back in 2018 when the P was first available the base model was
exactly the same HW as a LR AWD, and there was a software unlock to give the P performance.
That (they're the same HW) remained true through some of 2019, but eventually the LR AWD rear motor was swapped for a less capable one during 2019.
Anyway back in 2018 if you ordered a P, you had the OPTION to add the Performance Upgrade Package for $5000 more- THAT is what gave you the spoiler, slightly different springs/shocks, and 20" wheels.
The easy shorthand for this was P3D+ and P3D-, indicating Ps that were + or - that Performance Upgrade Package.
But some P3D- owners disliked having a - associated with their car name, so instead use the longer to type "stealth" designation for the car.
Anyway, later in 2018 Tesla made the PuP standard on the P.... it became the only version you could get.... (and did so without raising the price). Anybody who had already bought one before that got the option for a $5000 refund, if they were willing to give up the lifetime supercharging that also came with the P originally.
So for a while, you couldn't get a P3D- at all.... then a couple of times in 2019 batches up them just magically appeared in inventory, at only a small ($2000) markup to the LR AWD.
Nobody ever explained why officially, but some folks were able to get those. On the website only the P3D+ continued to exist for ordering.
Then late 2019 AB comes along a little bit after the last unexplained inventory batch of P3D- cars had shipped... and after that you the P3D- was suddenly available to order on the website again.... but at full P price. You could add or remove the PuP, your choice, but the car didn't get cheaper if you removed it.
Then a few months after, that choice went away and we're back to you can only order a P3D+
I dunno if inventory - cars ever showed up again after or at what price.
