nice video!!

I love your videos. Is there a particular MY year I should be looking at. I know that 2021 upwards for M3

Great points and yes these are at no cost to owners which is amazing. Love our M3 RWD 2024 🇦🇺👍

The OTA updates provided by Tesla are certainly game changers, arguably revolutionary, in the industry. I purchased my ‘21 M3 SR+ online (!), and the car was delivered to my house after waiting just a couple weeks. That entire purchase/delivery experience: mind blowing! It took, in total, about one hour of my time - not the entire day-long battle involved in going to a dealership to buy a car. And then, lo and behold, came the OTA updates. Over the 3+ years I’ve had the car I’ve lost count. The latest one was yesterday, for minor fixes. Hey, I’m happy to get those as well as the big ones. They’ve all added up to a car that is vastly improved in so many ways: safety features, driving experience, and entertainment! I’ve heard the supposedly derisive comment re: Teslas, that they are “iPads on wheels.” My response is, “And…? What’s your point?” That’s a huge advantage in my opinion. I live in the 21st century last time I checked! Good video as always, Adam!

pffff i drive an id3 and dont lik eit. i am gogin to test drive both cars as i have to let our car guy who manages the company cars. so in a way i am in the same spot. have 2 kids in booster seats and go on car holidays. i was thinking of getting the model 3 and use a tow bar for holidays. as now it is just to small. and i will be using this car for the next 5 years. @adam i was wondering what your experience is with car holidays and have to take a allot of stuff in the model 3. the booth looks very unpractical. i like the blue though :)

I recently took my M3LR Refresh on an approximately 850-mile round trip for the first time, and I am impressed with its performance. What I particularly liked was that I only had to stop once for charging between destinations. If you prioritize range and comfort, I would recommend the LR over the performance model. The performance wheel is not as comfortable as the LR, but for a more stylish look and a more enjoyable driving experience, the performance model would be the better choice.

Red Y premium sound is fantastic, 11monts later still fantastic, I know a lot of people that trade 3 for Y as a family changes and as I am 50+ back issue can't do the 3 as its to low , I have 30,000km MSM RWD....in 11 months 😂

Model y all the way a red y from Berlin.... with the blade battery or quick sliver .....

for me Family car = space and easy use = Y

Patience is a virtue. Just hold off and wait for refreshed Juniper, so both you and your wife will be happy for next few years.

Unless you're absolutely needing the new car now, I would wait. I've driven the new model 3 (highland) back to back with the old model 3. It's quite lovely and a noticeable improvement on the old model 3, but IMO, it's not worth upgrading just for the new features unless you can get a great deal. While great, the Highland is still a model 3, it's not a Rolls Royce or a German / Japanese luxury brand. I've also driven the 2024 model Y, which is great. Not as good as the highland, but by far the best Y I've been in. Again, while Tesla is blowing out inventory of the existing Ys, they're only going to get cheaper when the Juniper model is released. That might really be the best time to get one. That should also in theory depress the price of the 3 Highland a bit. Remember that all Autopilot / FSD software is still based around Hardware 3 (HW 4 cars run in emulation), so a hardware 4 car offers no advantage at the current moment except for the better camera images on the center screen. If you can have patience and wait another year and live with your existing 3, that's what I would do.

Love the Highland in Ultra Red! It looks like Ferrari red. And the new features are nice to have. However, with two little kids the practicality of the Model Y is simply unbeatable. I'm sure glad my kids are all grown up 😅

I was at Fully Charged in Harrogate today… decided to set ‘Fart with Indicator’ on the new TM3 on display 😄.

I ordered the M3P in stealth gray I just can’t decide on black or white interior. Please help haha

Great comparison. Your work is appreciated 👌🏽

This video misses so many important differences.

wait till the y gets the 3 upgrade. it is not worth it to buy it right now.

£200 for 16,000 miles??! Wow wow & wow

When i look at the performance model on Tesla it says 298 , are these revised numbers for the range ?

Does anyone know why front tires wear out so much faster on Model 3? I mean it's RWD, and I expect the distribution of weight to be 50-50, so they should wear pretty evenly

Adam, you didn't mention anything about value for an older Model 3? they're about 15k now. Would you recommend it?

I have a 2022 Model Y LR, which will be two years old in June and has covered 36,000 miles. Tesla's mobile service recently conducted a tire rotation for me, and there's still approximately 5/32 inches of tread left on the tires. I intend to replace them in the fall. I must admit, I'm completely captivated by this car, every time I step inside, it brings a smile to my face

Most reviewers predominantly focus on range as the primary different between SR and LR but this somewhat misses the point. Yes, the LR has longer range but it is a considerably quicker car. If you did a similar comparison with an ICE care with two different size engines, not only would the larger engine be quicker but it would typically have SHORTER range!

Thanks- will be interested to know how much the car has deperciated since you bought ?

M3LR - replaced my 1st set at 26k personally I dont need any bigger, the car good enough

Tell you one thing I'm sick of - white Tesla's. I think 8/10 Tesla's must come of the production line in white, because Tesla charge a ton for any other color. I also think 8/10 Tesla's total are probably company cars.

Still can't get past the fake wood on the dash. What were they thinking? 😂 These are coming onto the market used with decent prices now.

In the Netherlands, the RWD puts you well under €45K (base: 41K), and you can get a €3K subsidy this year. So effectively you pay €38K, which makes the gap with a LR version even bigger.

I enjoyed your M3 long-term review for this reason - I’m trying to decide if I should buy or lease the M3P I ordered last week. My thoughts are if this 2024 M3P ends up being a fun, reliable, practical, & safe car, then I plan on keeping it for many, many yrs. And In that case, I’d just buy it. Any additional thoughts? Also, what’s the deal with the full autopilot? Do many Tesla owners pay the $$$ to get full self-driving feature? A friend, who owns a Model Y, told me to not even think about FSD as I can always add it later.

Terrific video, Adam. I’m eager to see how 3 v Y discussion ends 😄. Happy wife = happy life.

You managed a lot better on your tyres than I did, mine were ready to replace at 18,000 miles

Great video. How many miles did you do on the original tyres? Did you rotate the tyres? Do you drive in chill mode, I do? My M3 RWD is 26 months old and done 13250 . Thinking I should be rotating tyres. What’s the filter that needs changing? Sorry for all the questions.

I have the same dilemma I currently have a 2021 model 3 standard range + but that deal on the Y got me thinking of getting the Y long range. I love my 3 and it only has 34k on it I just had the CCS adaptor added and new tires. Don’t know what I should do.

Just ordered one, my gtech really doesn't pickup very well so hoping the corded shark has that much needed power!

I bought a LR the day after release, waited until April 6 to settle on a RWD with no white interior being produced at the time. Great car but not what I wanted, The n the Performance came out. I did the math and decided to order one with the White interior. The tx credit made it possible and now I really don't care when I get it. Paying a few dollars more but well worth it to me because I never dreamed I would be Driving a Performance Model.

Good video. I think you forgot to mention the tires. The M3P has staggered tires, which you can't rotate.

The lease price for RWD start at $299 is a deal

Got lucky. Had set aside cash for a 3 performance back in January. Ran out of patience on March 22nd and bought Tesla stock at 143.22. On Wednesday they released the 3 performance... Brilliant. But then the stock popped to 194. Sold enough to pay the car and ordered the model 3 performance in red. Was just under the limit so got the credit. June 14th to 30th delivery. Will post Vids when I get it.

Half the features shipped disabled or broken like wipers. Matrix should have been day 1. The increased range and power was held back. These are not things you get free these you paid for but didn’t get. Day 1. Waze has speed cameras on bmw free plus android auto and car play. My self driving bmw system does speed limits but Tesla wants £3500 for it. Tesla has fake leather. Then wants £1100 for white fake leather. BMW doesn’t charge for coloured leather. My bmw also doesn’t need £1000 of new suspension bushings and doesn’t rust like suspension on the model 3. The auto wipers actually work. High beam assistance is included in the tech pack on bmw. Larger wheels are included in standard. £50k bmw would never come with 18’’ wheels with ugly plastic caps. Nor do they want £2000 for paint colours. Flat black should not cost £1400 either it’s not even metallic 😂 the Tesla doesn’t come with adjustable seat bolsters or thigh support either. You can’t add that via software. In the tech pack you also get a HUD Tesla doesn’t even give you a binnacle you can’t even add a HUD which is better than that ugly screen you get. No indicator stalks now. No easy way to use high beam and no gear selector. The car is £50k and basically comes missing basic features that come standard on cars half its value. Only reason to consider a Tesla is running costs are lower but then the depreciation is rubbish. The LR M3 only holds 22k of its £50k price after 40k and 4 years. That is total rubbish. Losing 30k on a car isn’t cheap. Wipes out all the fuel savings. A fast BMW such as a M340 or M3 doesn’t lose anywhere near that which means you fuel is essentially free. The second hand EV market will be a car crash due to all the cheap leases coming to an end over next few years. It’s already started.

Take the Y now and save some money 💰.

I wanted the rear-wheel drive with a white interior, but there are loooooong delays in delivering those here in the U.S., so I went with the long-range with a white interior. Can't wait to pick it up!

Is Model 3 performance same good with suspension like another Highland models ?

Do you have any idea why the Power Meter seems to have disappeared after the update????

I'll sum it up myself. Base=lame Long range=great Performance=AWESOME!!!

I’m thinking of getting the LR RWD dyou think it’s worth getting over the LR AWD? From what I’ve read the only difference is obviously the one less motor and a subwoofer the rest is all the same…

Model 3 performance is a no brainer in the US with the tax credit. It’s far more expensive in the UK, around 30k US more factoring in that tax credit. Just nuts.

Order the performance the day after it was announced. Should be ready in June.

I drove the Model S Model Y and Model 3 Long Range recently. The model 3 LR was not as good as the model S but for the cost difference the model 3 was good enough. I was about to buy and the guy told me to wait for the performance model 3... which I did... and I now have it on order. Cant wait! Get here already!!!

Fantatsic detailed and thorough explanation. Thank you.

Been waiting for someone to finally create this content! Nice job!!
