I just picked up a 21 standard plus for a daily car and it’s shocking quick. Not so much from a dig, but 30+ roll it isn’t like any other car, the instant torque is fun and never gets old, not to mention I got it for a STEAL!

In real life I hardly ever do kick down 0-60 kinda driving. The 30-75 is a "daily" activity and after testing all versions of model 3 I really can`t find any real argument of getting the performance version, not even the LR. I bought the 2021 SR+ and enjoy thinking how much money I did not have to spend to get a car able to go this fast. 18 inch is also the best choiche of wheels for everyday driving. They give sporty handling but still you have comfort and less noise.

I have tried both Model Y and 3 last winter and I'm the same, Model 3 all the way! It's slightly less spacious, but so much more fun to drive. I tried a SR+ Model Y and LR+ Model3 with a cold battery and the difference was huge.

You could get the LR then the software performance upgrade which is a cheaper route, doesn't quite give the same bang for buck, but certainly worth a consideration. It takes the 4.4 second LR acceleration to 3.9 seconds. You also need to consider the comfort loss with the performance version as the larger wheels with lower profile tires gives a hasher ride. That sort of thing is important in the UK where the roads are s..t, maybe the roads are better in Canada.

Great point as always Tom. I guess I need to go back and test drive a Long Range next ;)

[@JJ-sd4rl]

I doubt roads are better in Canada, maybe even s**ttier, especially in Ottawa. Lots of snow means lots of potholes. But yeah you made a really good point, M3LR + Acceleration Boost is less than 68k (65K+2.7K), compare to M3P 75k in CAD. Pretty good option for people who just want the extra fun from acceleration but not going too crazy like track mode.

Ça marche, ça marche ! Toujours un plaisir.

05:42 The autopilot is now temporarily limited to 120km/h for Pure Vision cars (no radar), I heard Telsa just pushed an update which increases the limit to 80mph from 75 mph this week, haven't updated my car to see what it is in km/h, probably 130 i guess.

[@TeslaCanadianDad]

Thanks for that info. Makes sense now.

[@snez18]

What a cliffhanger at the end!!! When is the next episode to find out what happens?

[@TeslaCanadianDad]

I accelerated quickly to get out of the way. Or else he would of hit me for sure. It was a very close call. He was thankful it was me there and not a newbie on a Seadoo.

[@SergeSeguin]

I knew you would want it if you tried the performance model. Always hard to not buy something thats fun like a fast car.

[@TeslaCanadianDad]

It's so fun. I want one now ;)

[@StormyDog]

Good idea not to switch.

[@cyruswu2744]

Haha, this performance doesnt have a radar.

[@TeslaCanadianDad]

Nice to finally meet you today. 😀
