I wonder if the people that are changing from the long range to a performance after months of waiting really know the differences and want them or they are just doing it out of emotions.
I completely understand "I want what I want and I want it now!"
my niece ordered a long range about a month after I ordered mine, and then she started saying she wanted it now and she was going to switch to a performance, I asked her if she knew the differences, like the front and the back tires are different sizes, they're not going to last very long,( maybe 20-25k, depending on your right foot) and they cost about $2500 to replace.
Not to mention the reported rougher ride(don't know because I have not driven one) and I'm quite sure the insurance is a bit more.
I too like the Performance, but it makes no sense for me, I'll be driving average 3500 miles a month, plus road trips, so the tires alone would kill me.
My entire reason for the Model Y is very low cost of maintenance vs my current 2019 Honda Passport EX-L( bought new May 2020, now has 84,000 miles) not to mention at current Calif gas prices it's .26 cents per mile for fuel alone. A Model Y will be much less, even with the high PG&E rates here in the bay area.
Emotions are a bad thing when moola is involved.
