That's great. I guess that's different than ordering new, where Tesla is trying to simplify the process, thus not wanting to deal with price changes.
You'll know if the display shows the Dual Motor with the red underline. Otherwise, acceleration is your only way to know. And it won't be the "real deal" performance because it will lack track mode, but since not everyone uses track mode, you'll be fine. The 18s will get you close to the 20s in straightline acceleration, but will lag in cornering and possibly stopping.

Confirmed - Performance w/ 18" wheels is $2k more than LR AWD. My area has a few Red on Blacks available but no Red on White unfortunately
$2k is a fair amount for the acceleration bump.
i'm so close to buying it but man I sure hope those aero wheels look better in person

Remember that there are pretty darn nice wheels *under* those aero covers...
Tesla, for the love of god take my money so I can upgrade!!! lol
And..
Is this not proof that an AWD and P are exactly the same from a motor/inverter/etc standpoint?
Best,

They are just covers. They come off...and underneath are very nice (IMO) wheels.

Don't be. Just do it. If this car was available when I bought mine (the full P3D+, or whatever you want to call it), I would have gotten it instead.
Order placed on a M3P-. My OA says these are still unicorn cars and one cannot order to build but handful of these were made accidentally at the end of last quarter and Tesla is only selling those inventory cars. So the swap the 18 inch wheel option for Performance will probably disappear after the stock M3P- cars are sold out

I don't think thats true.. I think these are software upgrades. They have too many of these 'unicorns' around the country.
I asked my SA to let me know if a P3D- matching my LR AWD order shows up in inventory. For me this is a "wouldn't mind having it" but I would pay the $2k extra to get the car sooner.
However I'm torn because I wouldn't modify my order and lose my place in line just to get it, the LR AWD is more than fast enough for me, and I can spend that $2k elsewhere like another Tesla in the fleet in a couple years or a new bicycle.
Am I the unpopular opinion in this thread? I like to think I'm being logical.
