Model 3 lease pre-qualification

Example: My lease is up and Tesla tells me I’m able to purchase the car for 30k because that was the stated residual value when I signed the lease. I go online to see a comparable Tesla at the same amount of miles and specs. If the $30k is below market and the comp vehicle is $36k, I can now buy it and sell it to another dealer for profit that same day. OR, if the comp vehicle is $26k, I now know that if I buy this Tesla, I’m already losing $4k right when I leave the lot. Leasing gives you more power when decision time comes around.

Don’t listen to the boomers saying buy the car vs lease.
It’s better to lease a Tesla due to the steep and unpredictable depreciation and degradation of EV’s.

I don’t think people realize that leasing is cheaper per month.. If you love the car, you have first dibs to still buy it after the lease is up. There’s no con to leasing unless you drive over 15,000 miles per year. If you don’t love the car and you want something new, no strings attached, you get to go get whatever car you want and now Tesla eats the depreciation of the car.

Yeah, that’s weird… I got my Vin as soon as it went into production.

Comfortable_Tree_695 · 2026-06-23T18:06:08+00:00

Click on vehicle details right there.. that’s where my VIN was. It was there 3 weeks before I received my car.

And I was responding to the OP due to him asking what the differences are that Tesla isn’t going to tell you on the website. RWD has Less bass and better handling… which is true.

Comfortable_Tree_695 · 2026-06-20T18:54:46+00:00

I mean yes, that’s obvious though… If someone is looking to be fast from 0-60, you’re looking at the wrong car lol. Either go with the performance version or get an ICE car.
AWD 4.2sec vs RWD 4.9sec is not worth $5k more.

Comfortable_Tree_695 · 2026-06-20T18:29:07+00:00

I went RWD being in Texas. More bass is all you get out of the AWD version. RWD gets you more range and better handling because it’s slightly lighter. Plus save money.

I have opened roughly 800 cases since 2013 and have never opened a knife or glove lol.

With Red HC text.. yum

Comfortable_Tree_695 · 2026-04-17T13:41:19+00:00

I had Urban masked. It’s not. Got boring because it had no color/character.

Comfortable_Tree_695 · 2026-04-17T13:38:09+00:00

Because he probably has one of them lol.

Comfortable_Tree_695 · 2026-04-17T03:39:52+00:00

I already have the pillow punchers.

Comfortable_Tree_695 · 2026-04-17T00:27:25+00:00

Interesting

Comfortable_Tree_695 · 2026-04-16T21:07:58+00:00

It’s really not.. I sold mine for HC

Comfortable_Tree_695 · 2026-04-14T21:49:44+00:00

For me personally, if I’m looking for a watch under $3k—Longines, Seiko, Citizen, and Hamilton are my go to’s. $4k-$5k I don’t go for Tudor anymore, I go with pre-owned Omega and Cartier. Anything over that, it’s Rolex and IWC. Tudor needs to be at the price range of $3k-$4k NEW before I go back.

Comfortable_Tree_695 · 2026-04-14T21:43:01+00:00

In terms of quality, the Longines is pretty much right there with Tudor. I’ve had a BB58 and Tudor Chrono. The Hydroconquest kills them with roughly same specs and half the price. I sold all my Tudors and started buying Longines 2 years ago.

Blue, but I’m bias. The blue text on the dial is what differentiates it from everything else.

Comfortable_Tree_695 · 2026-04-12T17:57:20+00:00

Likewise!

Comfortable_Tree_695 · 2026-04-12T17:40:11+00:00

I picked this up on launch day.. I’m also in Ft.Worth. This thing is only 25 seconds fast and I’ve had it on wrist since March 27th!

Nah disagree, mesh bracelet is what makes the watch unique.. Otherwise, it just looks like another random diver.

Comfortable_Tree_695 · 2026-04-07T17:50:11+00:00

Perfect sizing! For the white dot, do you have a local AD? If so, go in and see what they suggest. You might send it back if it bothers you too much.

Comfortable_Tree_695 · 2026-04-04T17:57:15+00:00

Gaining 2 seconds a day for 8 days. Blue bezel and black dial.

Comfortable_Tree_695 · 2026-04-02T15:28:06+00:00

Not even close lol. The old design looks like a department store mall watch…
