We still have a used S we bought last year but just picked up a LR RWD 3. I am experiencing buyer’s remorse. The S or X makes a better family vehicle for sure. I thought the power hatch and presenting handles were gimmicky. Now, I understand why the 3 doesnt have it. It puts the S in a different class.
New is not better. Things may change if more AP software/features are released but at this time we should have just bought a used X through Tesla or bought a used 3 one/two years later. Well, if money is bo object the point is moot.
My advice, dont get another 3.
Wait until you buy that used AP1 MX. Everytime I go from the X to the S, I feel like I lose even more luxuries. I never fail to feel like some sort of stuck up snob when I try to explain to someone that I'm waiting for my car doors to open or close themselves (when I'm not in the X)
With that said, we really do love our S and our X. Both capable family cars (S has rear facing seats) just in different ways.
