@90k is this a steal. You can easily find a used Plaid wirh 5-6k miles in mid to low 70's now. Unreal value.
They just released the track package which gets you new wheels as well plus ceramic brakes; they also unlock 200mph peformnce and maybe others. $15-20k. Most won't be driving fast enough to need it, but it's there for those that want that level.

Purchased a Used 2018 P100D, Came from audis/bmws/mercs as well and its crazy how much better it has been! I'm loving Tesla so far. I'm curious how life would be with a Plaid and the yoke but I would def consider an upgrade within a few years for sure. The P100D Is a lower slower but it's no slouch obviously.

At the end of the video you said the stores will let you drive a plaid. Will they? They must have changed it from before. I have test driven/rented combined about 12 different teslas. The first one was a model s at a store in 2018, they went with you then and would not let you drive a p100d unless you were absolutely positively buying one. So I just drove a regular model s, then a couple weeks later I got an overnight with a regular model s. Then I drove a model x p100d (they said the only demos they has were p100d, that's why they let me drive it). I have rented a p100d model s and x since then, and also a plaid model s. I have not tested driven either at the store, but I have test driven a model y and 3. The 3 was a performance even though I specifically asked for a long range. The model y was a long range- they don't go with you anymore- or at least they didn't me at my 'local' store. Maybe because they know I have never had a single issue with the overnighters I had? (Total of 4 nights - two with the model s and then 2 with a model x p100d..). Next year I am hoping to purchase a model y. Would prefer a model 3, but I can't stand that the front floorboard is not flat, and it hurts my foot because that (where the hump is) is where I naturally rest it.

I think that must have been the discretion of the sales person or so. I’ve test driven a few different models at the same facility near the tesla Fremont plant and each time it was different. One time I walked in and they told me to go out and drive it on my own for 20 minutes or so. Another time I had to make an appointment and the advisor literally had me drive around the block, a total of 2-3 minute drive. I really think it’s just up in the air and how the sales people are feeling that day. I dream of having a plaid model x (I need the extra space) but currently have a base model 3, which I absolutely love and am happy with. I used to think tesla vehicles were expensive (all cars are in 2023) but compared to all the other brands releasing EV vehicles, teslas are by far the cheapest available. The Bolt Is cheaper but I don’t feel you get as much as the tesla or other manufacturer models so I don’t really include them in the price comparison. Going on 3 years of ownership and only rotated tires and replaced the cabin filters. NOT BAD AT ALL!
