This refresh seems to have solved for the fit/finish, ride roughness, and road noise issues that plagued the first version. According to the video reviews I've seen at least.

Test drove M3 Highland recently and I agree the suspension and road noise is greatly improved. Car pooled with a buddy for a 500 mile trip in his 2024 MY and it was great Less road noise and better ride than the Honda I'm currently driving.

First quarter Tesla sold the most EVs in the US, the next 10 makes combined didn't equal Tesla.....and all EVs depreciate quicker than ICE cars.

I got my 2022 model 3 new and I bought it because I wanted a quicker car. Well I did get that. The road noise and ride quality from that year definitely needed improvement. Other than that my only complaint is that I wasn't anticipating as much of a drop off in residual value as I have. I have 64k total in the car with taxes and some upgrades and my car is worth somewhere in the $20's with 20k miles. That's ridiculous for a mint condition 3 year old car of any brand My point is, even with their zero or 1.99 percent apr, the rapid decline in residual value outweighs that low apr. just know what you are getting into if you buy this car.
I am exactly in the same boat with you on my model y, 20k miles, LR,2021 mint with not a single ding or scratch. I owe 26k books at 24k tesla offered me 23,800 they are out of their mind. I said to the Tesla sales person, sell me a 2021 with 20k miles at 23,800, sarcastically and the guy said, oh I have a 2020 with 66k been in An accident for 27k???? Smoking crack.

Get an insurance quote before you buy one of these. Setting any politics aside these are way more expensive and lower quality than your other EV choices. And on top of that their death rates are outrageous. I wouldn't consider one even at -25% APY.

Yes they are slightly higher than a normal car.... but i pay about 110/ month. Full coverage for my 2023 model 3. For reference i had a 2022 prius prime before this and it was like 90/ month.
the tesla also cost about 10k more... so id say about the same in the end

Gonna be a lot of cars shipping back from overseas that they can't find buyers for soon too. If you're interested you might want to wait for the buy one get one free Tesla sales.

You do realize teslas largely are made in the us, right?

Have a M3 for year and a half now. Zero complaints! Love it. Everyone I know who owns one also is very positive about theirs. Seems like a lot of fake negative reviews

Yes? With how much demand is dropping pretty much everywhere else in the world where do you expect then to send them?

bruh forget 2%, Acura, GMC, Chevy, Chrysler, Dodge, Honda, Hyundai, Jeep, Kia, Lexus, Nissan, and Subaru all have 0% APR offers right now

It's one of the oldest tactics to sucker people in when a shitty model is selling poorly

I know, right? Imagine changing your feelings about a person when they turn out to hold horrible views or your opinion about a product just because it ends up being really dangerous and horribly overpriced. Who would ever do such a thing?

Goodluck getting that 0% worth after you play chess against stealerships. They'll just "add" mudflaps, alarm system, tint and etc. in the "real price" even though they are shipped with. You havent been to stealerships that much it seems.

Total BS. You have rock chips/small scratches on the car! Just go look at the rear wheel panels near the rear doors. I guarantee you will have a lot of the rock chips and small scratches in that area. So full of BS!
