Tesla Model S Long vs Plaid, which one is better?

There is about a $40,000 difference between these two cars. Is one worth dishing the extra money for? The Plaid version of the model S is a carthat will likely never lose a race. Unless someone next to you is rocking a full race track setup up with thousands of horsepower, it is highly unlikely.

The promescent spray is a great way to delay ejaculation and is easy to use. 3 sprays helped to give me peak performance.

lol plaids can be bought now for 55k for a really good used example. Crazy how fast they depreciate

So I travel around every 6 months for business from southern Maclean VA to northern NYC/Manhattan and I recently went to pick up my brand new $150, 980 2023 Model S Plaid in black with the black interior and the 21 inch arachnid wheels and the $15, 000 self driving package and the $630 in accessory's and so far I would still rather have the plaid than the long range.

Plus with electric cars overall as long as I can drive from northern NYC/Manhattan TO northern VA or more in one go I'm not going to care about the range because to me being able to drive up the full north-eastern corridor in a single shot is a very good test/benchmark for an electric car to try to achieve and I do also appreciate that Tesla has superchargers everywhere so I'm not complaining that I can only go around 385 miles total on one charge cruising at about 85 mph on average when I have plenty of options to charge my car.

(and yes that is overall the maximum distance I have been able to cover on a single charge.)

Also how often do most people really need go more than 350+ miles from home most people do not use almost all 350/385 miles of range in a Tesla every day every 6 months like I need to for work.

I am *ready* to respect the power of this vehicle.

I honestly don’t think it is worth the now 20k difference LR vs plaid. How often does anyone drive that fast. It’s most people daily driver and the speed is not worth 20-40k more. Your paying more to show off.

[AlecWyld]

You can now get a 30k mile Model S LR for $50k and a Plaid for $65k very well maintain lol. Incredible value...

[RobertMacCready]

I'm considering either the model S LR or the S Plaid. My concern is with the build quality. I see many videos that show terrible build quality. Plus, is it worth the extra 40k to go a half second quicker to 60mph?

[alejandromarquez]

Just got the long range version. regular wheels, I need the long range for work. But wont unleash the power lol

[TSERJI]

You can now buy a brand new Plaid with FSD + the upgraded rims, and it’ll STILL be cheaper than what the base Model S LR cost a year or two ago. 😂 (not even to mention you now get those bucket seats, updated lights, & hw4 as standard on the new car)

[JMKDragon]

Isn’t the regular Model S 670 horsepower? That sounds plenty quick to me. Long range seems great. That’s my next vehicle.

[DescartesRenegade]

I have the LR. It's as fast as the new M5 CS. It'll be faster than 99.99% of anything you see on the road.

No need to show your faces so often. Especially with RBFs
