I wonder how many of those are Model S. I hope that Model S is not suffering any problems so that Model 3 and Model X can go forward. I am only person in my circle of friends interested in Model S as opposed to the other two models.

Anecdotally, I lost count of the number of Model 3's I see on a daily basis in Bay Area.

What attracts you about the S more than the 3?

I really, really, really wish my 3 had the same awesome dash and display of the S. And of course the S is better looking although a bit long in the tooth. And has more space inside. And the power trunklid is nice because I'm not used to sedans and don't really like manually closing the trunk on the 3. It's a 2-step motion unlike a hatchback lid that closes more naturally.

But the more time I spend in the 3, the more I realize it's a MUCH nicer car inside than the S -- which I didn't expect.

I can't speak for pseudocook but the fact that they replaced the dash with a tablet really puts me off of the 3. Not only is it ugly (IMO), its less functional.

Model S and X combined should be about 100K.
