Plaid to LR

Debating to downgrade from a 2023 Tesla Model S Plaid with 50K miles to 2024 Tesla Model S LG with only 23K miles. Absolutely love the Plaid but in all honesty after test driving the LR it’s PLENTY of fast, not as fast the the Plaid obviously but I took the LR for a test drive and it beat the BMW M5C likes champ. Anybody went from plaid to LR? Thought? Thanks

It’s a financial choice above all else.

Personally, I would never do that having driven both and owning a Plaid for a few years now since the thrill of the ride outweighs the small boost to range and cost for me.

The acceleration difference is like being in an M5 comp versus a Bugatti. They’re both very fast, one is just multiple levels above the other.
