Which car do you like better?
The S and 3 are very different. I have and like both. Pros/cons to each.
The 2017 would have AP2.0 (early) or AP2.5 (~aug or after). Supposedly either can support FSD. Just like the 3. Vapor ware at the moment. No one Really knows what will happen.
If that's your price range, I'd buy a brand new Long Range Model 3 in a heartbeat without FSD. This is coming from a 2018 Model S 75D w/ "FSD" for what it's worth...
I'd go with the S, but verify it is FSD capable. If so, it's a better car all around and that is a deal. This coming from someone with all of them.It will be my first Tesla if I do buy. What would you recommend? Is the model S a better deal or the model 3?
Sorry to the 3 owners but the 3 was designed to be an inferior car to the S on purpose. The S is the flagship. It's like comparing a 3 series BMW to a 7 series.The model s has enhanced and autopilot with some good upgrades. Is model 3 still better?
NoMoGas is right - make sure it is not a salvage. Have it checked out carefully and see if Tesla can give you any info.
The cars are so different there is really no right answer. Have you driven both? Do you frequently travel with a lot of people or stuff? The S holds more, smoother ride, harder to park. The 3 drive is more sporty. Smaller cargo capacity and rear seating isn't as comfortable w/ 3.
The new 3 is clearly the safer bet. New car under warranty and no surprises.
The S is a great price, still has warranty left (if not salvaged or been any any sort of accident that Tesla cancelled the warranty) and has already taken that first huge depreciation hit.. 2 years left on the warranty should make that one OK too.
Do you know the build month of the S? It might have older hardware (AP2.0) that would have a slower screen and some limited functionality like no sentry mode (AP2.0 has a fake sentry mode - looks like it is doing something but unable to actually record video).
Me to - Mine's Jan or Feb.I have a Jan 2017 S90D build that came with HW 2.0. I also have the FSD option.
It’s true that Sentry doesn’t record but it at least still gives the warnings and flashes the lights when someone is near. I have separate dashcams for recording anyway with higher res.
Me to - Mine's Jan or Feb.
I just didn't want someone to hop in the car, see the "sentry" icon, and assume full functionality.
Only a very small chance that a 2017 S90D would have transferrable unlimited supercharging. @SO16 might know exact dates w/ a Jan build. Mine is not transferable.
