2024 Tesla Model 3 vs The Cheapest Model 3 You Can Buy

Find digitally fit floor liners for your car with WeatherTech here: www.weathertech.com/floorline...
The 2024 Tesla Model 3 Long Range Dual Motor AWD ($47,740 USD starting, $66,003 CAD starting) and a very well loved 2018 Tesla Model 3 (~$20,000 USD) are facing off for our very first episode of new vs old with an electric vehicle. The new Model 3 has been heavily refreshed this year, and has seen some pretty serious new upgrades and changes. These include a much quieter cabin, a new exterior design, ventilated seats, ambient lighting, better speakers and more. But are all of these changes worth the hefty price jump over a used one? Thomas and James are excited to see how far the Model 3 has come, and just how much car you can get for the price on the used market. We hope you enjoy the episode. And then subscribe, silly.

    Rented a Model Y and Model 3 from Hertz after getting into a car accident. The condition of the vehicles were unlike anything I’ve ever seen from a rental agency. They both felt like vehicles with over 150k miles. Outside of the speed, there weren’t any redeeming qualities. I was left feeling like they’re way overpriced.

    For reference flop refers to how drastic the color change is when light is directly shining on a painted surface vs when it is just illuminated by ambient light. Think Pearlescent paint. Soul Red Crystal looks so good because it gets really dark when light is not shining directly at it, meaning it emphasizes the design more. Source: automotive design grad student

    Flop is derived from the use of the term “flip-flop”, which is often used to describe a paint finish which changes hue notably as the angle of observation changes, “flipping” from one hue to another. Calling it “flipping” paint just would not do. So the colloquialism “flip-flop” entered our lexicon, no longer just foot wear, but now, obviously derived from that ubiquitous term for an ultra informal shoe, but a follow-through to round out the a term for paint which “flips” color. A flip-flop paint job is one that can appear perhaps black in certain lighting, then raven blue in others. If the industry used the term “flop” for perceived changes of hue depending upon the angle of observation PRIOR, to the custom paint world coining this term, I will stand corrected and beg forgiveness for steering anyone wrong. But in the automotive finishing world, flop is indeed the alteration of the perceived color by way of viewpoint, and is generally a derisive term, and is an attribute of inferior paint or paint application. Not generally desired. The question of whether paint flop is desired or not, can quickly be derived by the uniformity of its effect. A finish showing this “flop” only in certain areas is evidence of poor mixing, whether color mix or reducer or even hardener, poor distribution of pigmented solids in the basecoat itself, or improper application, often via irregular air pressure, or simply, being drunk on the job. Beer goggles doesn’t only apply to late night selection of prospective mating partners. With beer goggles, even poor trim work, carpentry, or painting can look first rate, till morning comes. The light only lies a little bit.

There is a lot of wind noise at high speeds but it doesn’t really bother me the speakers are great at drowning it out. If anyone is interested in buying a used model 3 just make sure the seller took care of it and didn’t just treat it like a piece of junk because mine held up well for a lower-end ev. It’s also wicked fast not too many cars in traffic can catch up I love driving it.

    I have an identical 2018 M3LR (even in blue!) Owned for 5.5 years and 40K miles on it and it is still pretty much new. I don't know how that one is so beat up! A few weeks ago I test drove the 2024 LR. It was nice. I loved the quiet cabin and the quality of the stereo was better but there is something wrong with the spatial imaging of the speakers IMO. I don't feel surrounded by the sound as much somehow. I don't get a wide sound even messing with all the settings. If I'm comparing the stock suspensions between both the 2024 is MUCH better. However, I upgraded to adjustable comfort coilovers in my 2018 and the ride is very close with the 2024 a little bit more comfortable. In the end, my 2018 is just about paid off and it's still a great car so I've decided to keep rolling with it. Maybe the federal tax credit will come back someday and I'll consider it again but for now I'm keeping my 2018.

    I've also got a 2018 with 50K miles on it, but mine isn't nearly as beat up as that one. My seats are still supportive. My trim isn't falling off. My paint isn't perfect, but it's not covered in paint chips either. The trim can probably be fixed with some new clips, but new front seats would probably be pricey.

    The reason the early Model 3s (pre-mid cycle refresh) are depreciating steeply like the one rented here is because there was some nice updates around 2020-2021. The updated Model 3 got a new center console, updated front interior door design, a heat pump, double pane glass in the front, and in 2022 switched to an AMD Ryzen processor and a 16v Lithium Ion LV system. The early model 3s are easy to spot because they have the chrome trim, and the interior has the old glossy center console and the dash trim doesn't extend into the front doors.

    No, the reason is the price cuts that Elon decided was necessary to drive more demand at the cost of profit margins. Also the price cuts began about 4 months before he bought Twitter.

    A turn signal stalk remains in the same place. Heck, even the old 1960's thing where the turn signals were a switch on the dash meant they _remained in the same place._ You know where they are. You know where they are going to be. Putting the turn signals on the wheel means they're going to move around and never be quite in the same place all of the time, every time.

    One thing to consider is consumers like myself. I’m driving a 10 year old car that I bought for $11k new. It’s small, weak, loud, and almost entirely bereft of anything that could be considered a ‘feature.’ I imagine even a 50k mile rental base model 3 would still feel like a rocket ship compared to what I drive. Of course, it’s a scale of quality and affordability, but I don’t exactly need a 2024 to get a massive upgrade from what I’m currently driving

    I own a '22 M3 Dual motor/LR and drove the highland M3 Dual Motor/LR a few weeks ago. Surprisingly I got used to the stalkless design within a few minutes. The interior is sooooo much quieter which I loved, but I didn't care for the softer suspension. I like the go-cart feel of my '22. I also didn't care for the interior aesthetic compared to my '22. I too like the faux wood. If I didn't own a M3 already I would have no problem buying this and I'm sure I would love it as much as I love mine. The depreciation is real now. I paid $57K about two years ago and it's worth around $30K with 30K miles.

    I had one of the first 3P which came to Norway, from 2019 to 2023, it was my second EV after having an X from 2017-2018. Then swapped to the 2023 YP. I must say that a lot has happened to the Teslas from 2017>2023, but it should also be said that the 3P I sold had 85.000 Km and it was still looking good and working as it should. I had some initial issues that were taken care of. The Model Y has been just two small issues with, which mobile service has fixed when the car was parked outside my house. I got a berlin YP :-) I was luckilly not one of the first few ones with heat pump issues.. Now about 26.000 Km into the YP, it looks still good in paint, interior etc. The YP on 21" is actually more comfortable than the 2019 was on 19", I did also run the 2019 3P on 20", but got custom made forged wheels. Ended up doing KW V3 coilovers on the 2019 3P as the OEM shocks where too "bumpy".

The Model 3 is more efficiënt and thus more range, obviously way faster charging. And the Bolt struggles to get the power down. But yeah, the Bolt is made by a regular car company and ours is 6 years old and I haven't seen issues in our car with fit and finish or things falling apart. That and the new battery means the Bolt should be good for 10 years from now.
