People who hate on the plaid and its design can’t afford it or have never been in one. Everything doesn’t need constant change when it comes to body style. My opinion of course..
Or they know that Tesla is an awful company that under pays and over works and the quality is anywhere from worth what you paid to an absolute joke with broken plastic sticking out the sides Not to mention they're trying to cancel a warranty on a model "because the cars got wet in a car wash". Tesla is a joke company sold to morons by a moron.
Yeah I actually love the body style of the Model s. Honestly, I don't love the model 3 body style though. I feel like it's a little bit too bulky for me in terms of styling even though it is a smaller car. But the model s and 3 is such an amazing value for what you get. I think the next closest car that has 1,000 horsepower cost like $600,000 (the Ferrari sf90). How can you beat that for the money?
Congrats on your new Tesla🎉🎉 I took delivery of my refreshed M3 LR !! First EV. I absolutely love my car !! Not as fast as a Plaid 😂but my LR is pretty darn fast. Puts a smile on my face every time I get inside it. I love the tech and minimalism.
Also keep in mind the Model S LR is an even better buy. For those who don’t want the ridiculous acceleration the Plaid offers for $75k you can get the long range which gives you 670hp/738tq, 0-60 2.8secs, 1/4 mile of 10.6@129mph. Can’t get the carbon fiber trim but everything else is virtually the same as the Plaid but with dual motors instead of the tri motor carbon sleeves in the Plaid. It also has 405 miles of range.
That's also plenty fast too! I test drove it and it was quick! For an extra $15k though might as well get the extra motor because the speed difference is VERY noticeable between the two. Since the build quality isn't great I feel like if you get a model S might as well get the plaid otherwise you're better off getting a model 3 performance. That's the best feature of a Tesla is the speed IMO. It doesn't feel as premium or stable when you're driving it then a Mercedes or BMW but it sure blows them away from a power standpoint
@@AndyColeman Here’s my thought process on the Plaid. First, I will never get even remotely close to the 174mph top speed so that’s a waste of money for me. Not buying the track pack which is another $20k just for tires, rims, ceramic brakes and unlocking the 203mph top speed. Useless. The LR is already a bit much for city streets and the Plaid is even more. I’m not hot rodding the car. I prefer to buy what I’m going to use and although I love speed I’m not paying an extra $14k for performance I’m not going to use. Love the Plaid but I have no need for the ridiculous performance it has. The LR will destroy a M3P after 60mph and it has a bit more room which I need and it looks better and still has more tech than the new M3 so the M3P is not an option for me.
In that case, why not just get the new Model 3 Performance? It's 53k and qualifies for the 7,500 tax credit which makes it even less money. It has 2.9 sec 0-60, vented seats, etc. Why get the 75k S with no 7,500 off? If I make enough money, I'd get the plaid, if I don't, I'd get the Model 3P. Why get the base S?
I appreciate that! It took me a very long time to find that person to share things with and a ton of heard work to be able to afford cool toys like this!
Hmmm I would say the prices are coming down still so maybe wait and hope for an even lower price and refresh with LED lights and slight redesign! What are your thoughts on waiting though?
@@AndyColeman I keep hearing about a refresh and if I get one now, I worry about buyers remorse when the 25s come out in 4 months. I will wait and see what they do.
@@ChosenMJ oh really, are they actually going to put the LED lighting in the new model S's? I thought that was only coming to the model 3s but maybe I was mistaken on that
@@AndyColemanyess sir, if you go into settings. Put it in track mode and it will say like 7 or 9 minutes preparing for max performance, make sure acceleration is in plaid mode and hold the brake and the gas all the way until it says going in cheetah stance then it will say ready for launch and you’ll get a cool visual and you’ll be launched to space LOL g force is 20x more than a freefall apparently
Thank you! Yeah I was debating between getting black on the outside and white on the inside but I just love the clean look of all white. And when you get tints it looks absolutely sick incredible! The yoke is essential imo... it makes it feel a bit more special and unique
Ahh I had heard it cuts some power when low on miles but I didn't know 100 miles was the cut off... it does feel faster after charging it too. I'm definitely going to try it again on a full charge and see the difference. I can't imagine it feeling faster tho, even under charged it felt insane
It's actually not bad, it's nothing like my BMW M3 though. There's a big difference between bmw and tesla because I hear a lot of rattling and it makes a lot of noises. Also some of the panels have gaps in them but not super noticeable. All in all I feel like Teslas are better for speed and low maintenance and cheaper to drive. Not the best quality but good enough
No I actually didn't. I wasn't sure that's something they could even fix. Why have you heard that this is something that people have complained about and gotten fixed?
Actually I just checked and that is the cost with the gas savings which is just theoretical. If you unclick that it's still the same price. Basically it's like 88,000
@@AndyColeman it's still too much for a 24 when you can buy a 21 for 50,000 with barely any miles on it the only advantage to the 24 is the hardware 4 fsd otherwise almost exactly the same car they haven't improved the brakes they haven't improved the suspension or the steering nothing
Jesse on fire has a Tesla plaid awesome 😂 Seriously though amazing car. I just picked up the 24 Y performance and I absolutely love it. It's already impressive so I know that plaid is absolutely insane. I also find the build quality to be spot on.
Lol. Yeah it really is for the money. I don't think you can beat it at all. I bet you just got an amazing deal on the model y! Congrats! It's even hard going back to a gas car cuz I still have my bmw M3 It just doesn't have the same pop when you hit the pedal
🔥Congratzzz on your new competition Killa!🚀 Great video, I appreciate the overview, good car color combo & camera work. Yes, that front plate definitely had to go!😂👍🏽
wp bro S is not a bad car and for like 60k its prety good car since they depreciate like crazy its a great buy for someone whos looking for an ev (which are not many people rn but yeah)
Yeah it's dropped like $6k already since I got this... Which is wild I didn't think it would go down anymore this year but it'll probably keep going down. Leasing these is the best option imp
I want to see what they do for the refresh if they put in those cool LED lights and if they change anything else up or even make it faster... Even though honestly, it's too fast as it is and the car feels a little unstable once you smash the accelerator, but it is so much fun
@AndyColeman the tesla Roadster will probably be the only tesla faster than it. 0-60 in 1.9 like the plad but it has a faster quarter mile at 8.8 secounds with a top speed of over 250 mph which is insane.
Lol I know it is still a lot for a car. I just meant compared to the original price of $140,000... getting $50,000 for the exact same car is a bargain if you have the extra cash. I bring in about $40k-$50k a month as a real estate agent so I forget how blessed I am sometimes. I will admit it's irresponsible to spend so much on a car, however I don't spend money on anything else silly (like designer clothes, expensive dinners)... this is my one vice!
That's funny. You said that I was at universal 3 years ago when they were building that roller coaster and I've always wanted to go back and try it. It's just so crazy how a car can give you the same feeling as a roller coaster and you get to drive it every single day. Never thought I'd get to experience that in a vehicle!
On the build quality and why BMW has got better; they basically got schooled on Toyota build processes when they collaborated with Toyota on the Supra. Just thought that would be interesting as you also have an M3 BMW.
I didn't know that! Yeah the BMW m3 is so significantly better in terms of build quality it feels like it's in a different league. Next video I'm actually going to do a direct side by side comparison since they are about the exact same price!
I like the Model S but it could still use a redesign though. When I test drove it I wish it still had stalks for turn signal and wiper, maybe also for AC. From an ergonomic point of view I want to be able to get physical feedback and keep my eyes on the road. I do recommend the 19’s over the 21’s for range purposes. I’d like to test drive a Model S with a yoke but I had no issues with the regular steering wheel on the Model S Long Range. It’s going to be very interesting with a lot of the EV competition incoming. I am very interested in the Ionic and the new BMW EV’s. Also coming off Toyota I wish Tesla would get to that build quality level.
Yeah the horn and turn signals are not intuitive and I really don't like them... someone almost crashed into me the other day and I couldn't even find the horn fast enough to beep. Definitely 19s too, the 21s look better but less speed and less range. I love the yoke! It makes the car more unique, definitely a must if you get a plaid. I want this kind of power in a BMW M3.... that would be the perfect car IMO
I know that is actually a good amount for a car. I just meant in comparison to other hyper cars or supercars that have similar speeds like Porsches and Ferraris etc.... those are like 3-5 times the price
Bro it was more than 100 k Like 160k 150k or 140k compare to those price it s more affordable and compare to many other car for what you got with that I think it s fair
@AndyColeman oh it's still a great car but it needs a revamp. 48v, steering by wire, Lucid efficient motors, better battery tech and better seats. A new exterior would be nice too.
Have you driven one? I mean the actual plaid. I would try driving one first even if you don't want to buy one. Just the experience of driving. It is really mind-blowing
@@AndyColeman Yeah, once. I still think its a gimick. 99% of all car buyers would never use how quick it is off the line in normal conditions. Its a novelty regardless how cool it is to drive
i wouldnt show the speed tho i swear youtube be on your ass ab that , i seen big youtubers always block the speed once it passes 60 mph,not fully sure but just saying incase love the video tho
@AndyColeman its question what other car dont have better/more modern design and absolutelly much better inside because interior of Tesla are simply for puking good only!! so asketic and cheaply !! Chinese cars are rolly Royce inside in compare to Tesla

@@Cruor34 the S is more comfortable maybe
They neutered the LR by changing the tires and jacking the top speed. 150 is ok, but not 130. 130 is a joke.

Sorry man, anyone that owns a Tesla is gay, absolutely has to be
Def made my jeans move weird
Dude the only think I hate about tesla is how many dork bags do vids on them. I'm so glad drag times did the plaid justice
Cancelled my 2024 order because of this video.
And the battery was low when you floored it so it was a little slower. I bet it is quicker when it is at 80%

Nice build I have the same build with cream seats. Only thing you have to do is drive it pretty much maintance free.
