I suppose we can all just laugh about it and wait for your next update, right?

I'm looking forward to it!

^ is there a car that you can trade your M3P for that will make the situation better, give work to some car salesman, and recover some of the loss ?

Judging by the quality of decision making that already happened I would imagine any decisions going forward will only make things worse. Making things worse, however, is what I'm here for.

I'm hoping to see a trade-in for a 2022 Model Y that leaves him another $17k in the hole and then a trade-in for a 2021 Taycan Cross Turismo after that.

pssshhh my lezbaru is significantly cheaper than his car, almost as fast, and wayyyy more practical and better built. I have absolutely zero desire for it to go any faster and to also have a gay ass elon product which screams im a neo nazi faggot.

what makes you guys think I regret getting the Performance? I am not going to back track and get another car.... I never even looked at the Y performance... its slower...I didnt look at the Taycan since its still in the $60,000+... lol I like my new to me used model 3 Performance...with the 17k hole and all... (10k of it was from my base model 3)

Add a couple more green trolls to rep his own family that is giving him a hard time too!
Ooo maybe dark wants to change his name to model3604 to follow in Acura604's lead as he buys Acura only and went through a bunch of 3rd gen TL's.

I heard the Model S Plaid/Ludicrous with free supercharging is a good deal, pulls harder than a M3P... a used one can be had for about $55K.

dark's deal is done and it makes him happy - it's not like he traded in his car to get into something wildly expensive. We probably have people in our lives who judge us for our car choices with equal scrutiny.

yah, next person that dumps on dark should be banned for a month.

it's just kinda funny, he sheepishly shared it here, a previous car dealer who couldn't walk away from his own 'not so good' offer/proposition, but he wanted honest feedback and took it all like a man, the congrats and the WTF's ?
