Model 3 Highland Performance/Plaid Speculation [Car announced 04.23.2024]

[SVDNN]

I contacted Tesla today and they said they are not doing demo drives for M3P yet. They said they have some to look at in Walnut Creek and San Jose.

Saw the one in San Jose - Santana Row. You can be placed on waiting list for demo drives- was told likely in about 2 weeks (but who really knows).

Two Elon weeks is like 1 dog week.

Some would argue dog years too (i.e roadster)

In Bellevue they've started a list at least.

Ok, so you're just guessing with no actual evidence.

Plenty of evidence out there if you look.

So will the refresh model S LR be able to beat or match the new 3P 60-130? Hmmm now that will be interesting to see.

Stop the daydreaming guys. You will be badly disappointed. The MS LR is a beast, you think a "+20% things" rear motor overcomes the front one and cheap battery pack?

Well we can assume the 3P takes it off the line to 60 and IF it can sustain it to 100/110 even…
Maybe the SLR starts to catch up and they are neck and neck …time will tell.

What does the LR do 60-130? 2022/2023 (non throttled reduced max speed version.)

You should chime in on this thread: Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

i've seen others do 6.7 ....

Technically that’s 62-124. In combination with the downhill, that might be enough to account for the difference.

Good market for them, lots of fancy cars there

Too bad it costs $9,500 more! If you select red you are no longer eligible for the $7,500 tax credit.

Only relevant if you’re eligible for the tax credit in the first place.

Wait an hour and check again. Prices change all the time. It’ll be under the $55k cap again once Tesla clears out the initial demand

I would imagine most people who can afford a M3P are eligible.

I do indeed check every hour
