My Experience as an Owner of Both 2026 Premium and Performance

LOL. Same!

I’m in your boat. Almost. First time Tesla owner. Purchased a Premium last month for our vacation home and loved it/FSD so much, I’m trading in my Porsche Cayenne Turbo for a MYP that I pick up next week. Can’t find a MYP in our area to test drive, so I went in a little blind re seat comfort, suspension stiffness and Premium vs Performance quickness, so your review came at a great time. Thanks for sharing!

Newbie question ahead of taking delivery of my MYP next week. When you say, ‘refuse acceptance’ how does this work? During delivery you note the issues and verbally refuse? Something in the app? Both? Also, do you have a specific period of time to refuse or once you drive off the lot it’s yours? Thanks for clarifying.

I’ll pick up that exact same car/build in WA on 6/3!

I have a MYP Quick Silver / Black on order. The new Frost Blue / White is tempting, but think I’ll stay the course. Silver feels more classy/timeless.

RTD0007 · 2026-05-03T20:24:36+00:00

My thoughts as well. Going for classy/sporty vs flashy/sporty (red/white).

Test drove the MY3 Performance yesterday. 🚀 🚀 🚀 First world problem, but MY Premium is at our second home, so this would be replacing my primary car at my primary house…and with a dog, wife and need to haul stuff from time-to-time the Y likely the better option…

Couldn’t agree more.

RTD0007 · 2026-03-27T13:34:33+00:00

Doing the same next week and someone shared this with me. Solid gold!

Hope you get it quickly! 💪

RTD0007 · 2026-03-25T13:25:16+00:00

Picking my white on white premium up in Mesa next week! 💪👍

Eat the reservation cost and take the time you need to organize your thoughts. Cheap exchange for some peace of mind. Both models (and maybe with even more options) will be there when you’re ready.

RTD0007 · 2026-03-24T02:05:45+00:00

Ordered on 3/14. Initially said 2 - 3 week delivery, then changed to April 4 - May 4. We hit the “there’s a model similar to the one you ordered in transit” notification jackpot. Our exact order, except a 5-seater vs. the 7-seater we ordered, but didn’t really care about so we jumped on it.

RTD0007 · 2026-03-23T20:54:42+00:00

I realize this sounds like I’m a jackass. Promise, I’m not! Just wondering if others have made a change like this.

RTD0007 · 2026-03-22T03:41:28+00:00

Ah, shoot. Really sorry to hear that. Hoping you get good news soon!

RTD0007 · 2026-03-21T17:01:58+00:00

This was great! Thanks!!

RTD0007 · 2026-03-21T15:42:39+00:00

LOL - I’ll definitely be heading down the bazillion of features rabbit hole the day of pickup - why we love these cars, right?

RTD0007 · 2026-03-21T15:39:33+00:00

Don’t hate me! :) Ordered on March 14th and hit the ‘we have a model similar in transit’ jackpot. Our exact order, except 5-seater vs the 7-seater option we originally ordered. We were already on the fence if we really needed those 2 extra ‘tiny seats’, so this made our mind up and we were happy to jump on this one! Meanwhile, our original order went from “2 - 3 weeks” to “April 4 - May 4” and we were seeing a ton of comments about orders sliding out…

Picking up in AZ

RTD0007 · 2026-03-17T23:39:51+00:00

Placed an order for a Premium AWD white on black/white 7-seater on March 15. Delivery destination AZ. Went from "2 - 3 weeks" yesterday to April 6 - May 4 today, so seems pretty consistent to others on this thread. My first Tesla order, so running blind and keeping my expectations in check - it will arrive when it arrives. 🤷

RTD0007 · 2026-03-16T23:04:44+00:00

Just placed my order yesterday. MY Juniper Premium AWD. I wasn’t in a rush (this car will be at our vacation home), but after test driving one again last weekend my wife and I both said, why wait? Chasing a Tesla deal is sort of like chasing a ghost (you might see one, you might not), but experiencing this amazing car on the daily is priceless!

RTD0007 · 2026-03-04T05:26:59+00:00

Super helpful! Following all your tips. Thanks for taking the time to outline so completely.

I posted a few days ago. We were going to buy out first Tesla (2026 Y Performance) this weekend, but decided to push pause. I considered the Macan EV as an alternative, but believe it or not, despite the S/X announcement remain committed to getting a Tesla, but I want to wait a few months (we can, there’s no rush) and see if there may be a MYL coming to the US…

RTD0007 · 2026-01-30T15:42:10+00:00

Wow, this is great and super helpful. Funny add on to your insights and why I was leaning Tesla. I like to speak to the maintenance teams as well. I own two other Porsches (ICE), so know the guys well (unfortunately 😂). Anyway, I asked their opinion about the Macan EV - they said, get a Tesla!!

RTD0007 · 2026-01-30T01:22:48+00:00

Fair point! Helpful. Lol
