Greetings!
I posted a similar thread a few months ago, asking if I should trade my 2018 LR M3 RWD to get a new Model S AWD today. My car has about 26K miles, and has served me well. When I bought the Model 3 in late 2018 the Model 3 had less range than today, did not have the upgraded suspension that it now has, and the new version 3 computer is an added bonus. The model S also has a smoother ride (air suspension) coupled with greater range than the Model 3. What's changed is the $5K drop in price for the Model S - a significant drop and one that has me considering upgrading.
I expect that my Model 3 has depreciated by $12-15K since I bought it, and I'd expect that the Model S will depreciate even more in the coming 2-3 years as an interior updates and battery pack upgrades are expected. Despite that likelihood a 400 mile range Model S with the improvements noted seems like a good overall package.
The question is simple - make the trade or not?
