Hi, I'm new here. If this is the wrong place to post, please let me know and I'll delete. Here's my dilemma:
I've been looking at two teslas -
1: New 2019 Tesla.com ordered Performance Model 3 would be ordered with FSD & White interior at $66,900.00
2: Used Late 2016 Model S P100DL. It has all the crazy performance, Enhanced autopilot but it has that brown interior I'm not in love with. It costs $80,000.00.
So here's the problem. I REALLY want the P100D, but I'm very concerned about future proofing, it has free supercharging & I plan on keeping the car at least 3-4 years given Tesla's promise of even better autonomy. However, I'm concerned about the technology. It has Autopilot 2.0 hardware to my knowledge, and I know Elon has stated it is upgradable to AP 3.0 That the new Model 3 would ship with, however I'm not sure how efficient or immediate that upgrade can be issued. So, all you existing Tesla owners: what would you do? Go for the crazy performance and free supercharging? Or buy into a car that you know has the latest greatest, but doesn't go to 0-60 at 2.3 seconds.
I realize you can't make a decision for me, but any insight would be helpful. For those of you who will ask: no, I can't afford a new P100D, I wish I could! Thanks in advance - excited to get in a Tesla!
