Used 2019 Tesla Model 3 Consumer Reviews
A Stealth...
On the Tesla website, you'll find 3 trims... SR+ (260 range, 5.6s), LR AWD (320 range, 4.4s), and Performance (310 range, 3.2s). Whats not on the menu, a 'Stealth' or 'Sleeper' , which is a Performance without the appearance package (spoiler, 20" rims, red calipers, lowered). This is also only 2k more than the LR AWD but 5k LESS than the full Performance but still gives you 0-60 in 3.2 (3s now after a recent OTA update!). These are built in small batches and you need to ask about them to secure one.. they are hard to find but worth looking for. This should not be confused by the new 'upgrade' option of 'acceleration boost' (also $2k) that LR AWD owners can buy... it is still not as quick as a Performance or Stealth... Cost of running ... even as heavy footed (and it's winter so i'm using a lot of heat and seat heaters), i'm running about the equivalent of HALF the cost per mile as a MB C300 or BMW 3 series... and thats not even factoring in oil changes (not required) and ongoing maintenance! And the quickness of these cars is staggering... everyone that's ridden in my Stealth states that it's like being on a roller coaster, when it's punched. Ease of use for the car is incredible, no key, no start, voice commands (latest update) to control almost all functions of the car (set temp/AC/seat heaters/media/telephony etc) makes it even easier now to simply enjoy the drive. Most seamless car and driver experience ever... All Model 3's now come standard with AutoPilot and Full Self Driving is available as an optional upgrade.. If you go to test drive one, be prepared to place your order :)

Best Car I've Driven!
Beautiful, fast, high tech, comfortable and good for the environment. I love it more with every drive and every free over the air update.

Emotional connection to a car again. FINALLY.
I loved my first car which was a 69 VW Beetle I bought in 1979. Since then, I have had SUV’s, sporty cars, vans and in the last 15 years, hybrids. I connected with my first car and no other until my Model 3. It is the most awesome car. Aside from never having to get gas again, the way it handles is an extension of me the driver. Intuitive in a way I cannot explain. I love this car. Smooth. Super pick up. Gorgeous. And it takes good care of me when I forget something.

Excellent car, no service required
I bought this car in June 2019. It drives like a German sports sedan but faster than most of them. I've had zero problems with the car in 32K miles so it's never needed service since I bought it. The car keeps getting better with over the air updates. The supercharger experience has been great, it just works. I highly recommend the model 3.

Performance Model 3 is a blast to drive
Loved the speed and instant torque in the car. Having over-air software updates continually changes and improves many facets of the car. Loved the tech and connectivity to my phone. I didn't use Autopilot as much as I thought I would. And the car isn't great for a road trip -- too noisy and sprung too firmly for a long trip. I'd buy it for around town, but not for long trips. An Update: unfortunately the car was in a rollover accident that totaled the vehicle. The car, however, performed well. The passenger compartment was well protected. The occupants were all able to exit the car without an issue and without serious injury.
