OP, something that will almost certainly skew your results is the fact that this the model 3 forum, with people who purchased model 3s. Hang with me for a minute.
While there are likely many people who COULD buy a 90-100k car in this section, there are likely many many more who could not. The base price of this car is roughly 40k, give or take. So, while some could afford to do it, plenty wouldnt be able to from a cost perspective.
In the model S and X forums, the base price of those vehicles is 80k ish, give or take. Someone who can afford an 80k car can almost certainly afford a 100k car. Whether they want to or not is a different story. There are plenty of people who purchase model 3s for which this is the most expensive car they have ever purchased. Thats likely not the case for people buying 90-100k model S and X (in general).
So I think your question will be skewed here, because there are likely not a lot of people who would want a model 3 at that price, as they are now punching in a different class so to speak.

Sometimes, yes (I would say "much" of the time). Sometimes, though its just making conversation / interaction / curiosity / wishing. My BS meter is pretty good (not perfect by any means though) and the ones I feel have that kind of slant I usually avoid, unless I have to moderate something in them. I kind of felt this one was just conversation / wishing, though.
No I wouldn't pay 90k for a model 3 plaid, because it's not a luxury car. The model S is a luxury car. $70k would be an absolute cutoff for a plaid 3 for me. $90k maybe if it had a 500 mile range with the new cells.
Well, I think it goes without saying that any Plaid Model 3 would have the new battery cell technology. That, combined with the much lower overall weight compared to the Model S, would almost certainly mean a range close to (if not higher than) 500 miles for a Plaid Model 3. For reference, the recently announced Plaid+ Model S will have a range of over 520 miles... Crazy and exciting stuff, heh??
OP thinks about driving dynamics when driving fast
I think about range, and driving comfort on long trips. So while I dislike large cars in general, I appreciate their advantages on long trips. A 400 mile cruiser is something to think about; the extra 120 mile range in the plaid+ is awesome but not worth $60k to me. When a 500 mile Model S is under $90k I'll give it serious thought.
A Model 3 plaid would not tempt me.
I drive my SR+ in chill acceleration mode like an old lady.
I’m sure there’d be a market for something like that, but that’s gonna be a no for me dawg.
I miss my Miata.A long range AWD Model 3 platform as a two seater convertible would be pretty close. I really miss my Honda S2000.
Nope.. I hardly ever put my "foot to the floor" in my model 3P as it is. I dont have to, I can already accomplish what I am after without going "full throttle". Only time I do, is when I (used to) take people for a ride around the block for them to see what its like.
