2023 Tesla model 3 am I stupid

In my opinion abit over priced for the mileage. Looks clean though!! Congratulations

Definitely overpaid.

Over priced, yes.

You overpaid by a lot but nice car though! Congrats

Just bought a 2023 tesla model 3 rwd from tesla's website, with 28k miles for 24k.

o ,really?I am going to return it.I don;t like the over prived

My neighbor bought a 22 MYP for 27k with 53k miles.....

A new one is around $47K so yeah, I think you overpaid a bit. OTOH, my wife's 2018 Model 3 has 130K on it and she intends to keep it to 200K, so you could probably get your money's worth. It is pretty though.

Looks great but maybe it is a bit high. Last year I got my 22’ sr with 33k miles and fsd for $26.5k

Rip out the current suspension, throw the highland suspension on it and you got yourself a $40k car for ~$29k total https://www.reddit.com/r/TeslaModel3/comments/1hdd4mt/swapped_the_2024_highland_suspension_into_my_2022/

what about it's out door price?includ tax everything

I got a 2023 SR 60k miles for $17,699 a month ago

What would you say would be a fair out the door price for that model with that mileage? I’m currently looking to buy something similar.

I just bought a model 3 2020 with 59k mileage for 14k

21-25 depending on mileage. Do yourself a favor and get a long range https://preview.redd.it/m4wi034uq3ng1.jpeg?width=1320&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4fe8f860989732b261e9226f32f7f231e15dbd9b

I just bought a 2024 M3 AWD, less than 7k miles, for $33k for reference.

I got my 18 m3p for 6k

Last month, I got a ‘23 w/ 18K miles for $25K, so there’s that

I bought my 2023 Tesla model 3 performance with 40k miles white on white 1 year ago for $25k…

Feels high. I see 2024 long range RWD with under 15,000 miles for low $30s. And you get HW4 and greater range, better NVH and just better…

Teslas website has these same cars for 21-22k

Yeah no offense but go to kelly blue book and look at the trade in value of that car you just bought. I think you may have over paid

[deleted]

Bro i just posted my 2022 long range 35k miles for 26,500 lol

you overpaid by about 3k

I bought a 2023 M3LR from tesla website. 9k miles and paid way less than that. Geez.

Damn I saw your post now I want to do that on my 2021 sr+ But I need a shop to do that (I’m in France)

2023 Performance with 39k for 30k off Carvana a couple weeks back.

Yea overpaid. I got my 22 model 3 AWD lr with acceleration boost 22k miles for 26000 Also white interior

You overpaid, but you’re still getting a great car for the price.

Return it and look elsewhere. I got my 2021 with like 20k miles for 25k

You shoulda asked us first but after you get over that, you'll love the car. Have people check the Tesla site first

Seems high but congrats!

Jealous about your US prices.

It’s a great car, you’ll love it. I’d have sold you my 2023 M3P with 38k miles for 30 grand.

You way overpaid. I got my 22 38k miles LR for 21k OTD. You overpaid by at least 5k if not more. For past 6 months that I have been shopping TM3, I have seen countless cars below $20k list price with fewer than 60k miles.

I think I saw 2023 m3p with 30k miles going for 32-33k

prices are location dependent. Take mileage and condition into account. I've seen similar mileage for $20k that a meth junkie wouldn't sleep in. Standard range has LFP batteries which is a bonus if you daily, will have more usable range than a LR. LFP are less a fire risk, the SR is lighter and efficient. You can charge to 100% all the time, in fact recommended. LR is better to float at 50-60% and max 80% with 100% only for long trips.

Might I add , I believe a lot of people got that car for 35k (maybe less) because of the upfront tax credit

For the amount of miles, maybe 24k would have been better but long as the battery is good. All the matters.

I mean, a simple look online would have displayed many of these exact versions for a few thousand dollars less. With less miles. I don’t think you’re stupid. But I question your car shopping abilities.

Is that price out the door with tax, tag, title and all fees? Or is that just the price of the car before all of those extras?

Gotta love when people ask if they got a good deal **after** buying the vehicle.

They overpaid by atleast $3k

Probably like 18-20k tbh. I have a 2023 m3p with 27k miles, and trade in was worth about 18k, so I can't imagine that being much better.

It’s better but nothing like you’re pushing here.

I just got a 2023 12.8k miles for $23k

I bought a 2022 M3 LR DM for 27k OTD from the tesla dealer less than a year ago. It was a bit more than comps but having it checked out by a Tesla and the additional warranty they offered made it seem like a fair deal to me at least.

I really want a model y but most of the cars i can find in my area (Los Angeles) are 20-26k for high mileage about 60k miles average I would say and are 2019-2023. Maybe I should look outside my area. The model 3s around me are much better priced 19-23k with much lower mileage average around 40k miles.

I got my M3 2023 standard range for $20,900 with 43,000 miles

Good news is, there are probably over a million people who overpaid worse than you when buying a new Tesla / EV, so in that regard, not so bad! Amazing car though, dont worry about it

same got mines about a month ago paid $23,100

with 23k miles

Got my 2022 AWD 37k miles for $20k

If you're satisfied with the interior then don't worry about it. These cars don't have the same wear and tear per mile as ICE vehicles do.

That is not a good price. That’s like $1k less than what I paid for my 2022 long range AWD directly from Tesla.

Damn son mine was 16k miles for 28k

Just curious why you’d ask after the purchase? It’ll spoil your excitement - what’s done is done and now it’s time to just enjoy. Congrats!

Got a 22 LR with 28k miles for 26 otd 6 months ago.

I bought my ‘22 LR with 29k miles for $27,500

Same got mine in November 23k, 28k miles. White interior though

I’m eyeing a similar price setup. Did you find it worth it?

A few weeks ago: 2020 MYLR 35k miles $24k. Independent dealer.

overpaid by a few thousand. if it’s in very great condition, it should be worth the value you paid

From where?

IMO 2023 was the best year

I just got a 23 model 3 performance with 32k miles for 27k

I bought my 2020 M3 with 80k for $14,000 ( new suspensions too! )

Got mine same year and everything black on black in November for 23k with 15k miles

I just got a 2023 Standard range with 37k miles for $23.2k, directly from Tesla.

I bought the same exact car with the same mileage for $20,500 😭

LFP SR is the same weight as the LR DM … The NMC SR was lighter.

You might be stupid but it’s not because of this decision

WAIT HOW 😭😭😭

Just bought a 2023 model 3 with 5k miles for 27k including tax and fees

The answer we were looking for is “come to Reddit is before you buy, not after.” Congratulations on the M3. You’ll love it.

Yes. I have one as well.

Guys, this is a performance model, so definitely worth more than an sr or AWD

Yes

You paid 7k.extra This is 15k miles less, yet more than $5k cheaper than what you paid. Rear-Wheel Drive $21,600 2023 Pre-Owned Vehicle with 41,688 mi https://preview.redd.it/5gwrnqrwn4ng1.png?width=795&format=png&auto=webp&s=414d69dc2ca8a94f137e9a10cf95cfba473f60a5

Did you include tax?

I call bs

I got a 2020 M3 with 78k miles a little over a month ago for $13k.

Depends on your location because prices tend to fluctuate throughout the country. For example, I bought a 22 Model 3 Performance with 40k miles for 26k in the California Bay Area. I would say you were overcharged unfortunately.

No. Just bought a 23 M3 long range with 22k miles with white interior for 29k. CPO from Tesla with warranty to December 2027 and battery warranty until 2031.

2021, dual wheel drive model 3, for 12k. I feel like I stole it! So blessed

Enjoy it and don’t worry plus you got 10k miles of additional warranty and Tesla checked it out. Enjoy!

I paid 20,995 before tax,etc 8/25 for my grey metallic 2023 RW Std manuf 8/23,.with 4700 miles!!! Windshield passed inspection, only a little rash on one wheel but don't have wheel protection. I feel like I scored!!

I got mine in Dec 2025 2023 Tesla model 3 rwd 23k for 24k miles

Definitely overpaid nice cars tho

Been eyeing the 2023, found a long range with 39k miles for $28k.. 👀

so nice!!!!!

Bought a 2023 extended range all wheel drive from Houstons Auto Boutique in texas for 30k with 7k miles only

If you take care of it, it is very likely you can get 300,000 miles out of the car. Most don’t keep cars that long, but the option will likely be there for you.

IDK MY BROTHER OFFERD ME IT

I got my 2023 M3P in August with 24k miles for 30k.

Just got mine 4 months ago, 23 M3LR 29k miles - thought I overpaid… $27k + tax through Tesla website based in SoCal

Yes, but only cause this is reddit

Price feels high. Bought the same with 13k miles for 23k from Tesla.

nope, its a sweet car. Check out all the options on the screen, the software updates more than my phone, these cars stay fresh. cars have had shitty user interface screens for too long, this one is different. congrats! enjoy not going to gas stations!

yes 

Thank you ,I feel better

23’ M3 LR 25k miles 19in wheels for 22k.

Thank you for the info.I feel better

yes,sir! out the door with tax tag title and all fees!

Thank you !I feel better

Yeah 2024 way better very bad choice by U GG m8

2022 MY Performance with 14k miles for 33k

I got the same almost exact miles for about 23k otd. They added dealership stuff I couldn't get rid of.

For 58k so you think 23k otd was good? Got one in really, really good condition.

That's a unicorn though. I believe it more in Ohio though. Notning like that where I live

What year? It really depends on what's you live. Also, alot of sneaky fees that they won't sell car without. They use cheap prices to get you in and then reveal real price to ya. So the online prices are skewed on average.

What does it matter? If you can’t back out then it’s yours. Enjoy it and take care of it and move forward.

Wtf. Where? Is that otd?

I got my like new (in terms of upkeep) 2023 SR, 58k miles for 23k OTD. They added stupid dealership stuff, like Winshield and tires . But they wouldn't sell it without it because that's how they make their money. I still think it's on average a decent deal. Just got two big scratches on bumper though :/

2022. Like I said, it's OTD. Not selling price.

I just picked up the same Model 3 52K miles used directly from Tesla for $20,300. Took delivery last week.

Yea you way over paid. That’s a 17k car. 23-25k if LR awd

yes

Ok

Ah that's a great deal! Got my 2023 for like 23k otd. By where I live there was nothing lower. Local dealerships were charging 22k otd for like 2019s. 22s were minimum 23k and that's without tax etc.

28k OTD for my 2023 model 3 long range awd. 30k miles. did i overpay?

Ill take your word on that figure. My general take is these suckers are going 300k miles on the reg., with proper maintenance/use of that pack. Climate is a thing too.

Bought mine with only 30k miles a year ago for less than that sheeshhhh you got fleeced

Owner of 2023 M3P and have owned over 20 cars. Yes I’m old. It’s my favorite car of them all. Speed is scary, FSD is amazing with HW3 for me. So enjoy!!

My mom bought the same car in January for $22,500 from Tesla. Had 39k miles. 3 free months of everything

Nah, happens. Nobody cares. 😉😅

Is a 2020 long range with 133k miles good for 16k

if thats in USD yes your are. I got a 2023 Model Y LR HW4 for 27.9

Just bought a 2023 Model 3 LR AWD with 35k miles off Tesla’s website for $27,700.

I got my 21’ model 3 for 17k back in march

You probably overpaid by $3-5k but if you love it, just keep driving it. That damage is already done. Long term, it will have been one of the best decisions of your life.

Well... For the record, I think the highland suspension was better than the updated "more comfortable" suspension in the 2023 Model Y I had.

**339 lb (154 kg) weight difference**  * **Standard Range (RWD)**: Weighs **3,891 lb (1,765 kg)**.  This model uses a single-motor rear-wheel-drive setup with a 60 kWh battery. * **Long Range (AWD)**: Weighs **4,030 lb (1,830 kg)**.  This model features a dual-motor all-wheel-drive system and a larger 78.1 kWh battery.

I think you overpaid. I got my 2023 LR 37k miles for the same price as yours.

Nice. I bet the ev credit was still around f Though

Unfortunately no,I could not claim it

Should gotten the refresh Highlander

Im about to sell my 2023 performance for 26k with 61k miles lol Return your get mine😂 just put new tires and paid the registration

I got a 2018 with 36k miles in 2020 for $43k. Hope that makes you feel better. It was a AWD though but still.

Hmm, I had these weights in my notes when I shopped: 2020 M3 SR 1612kg 2022 M3 LFP 1825kg Highland LFP 1836kg Highland DM 1899kg

I’m tryna sell my 2020 LR 40k miles clean title decking what to list it for price wise

It's not a $17k car 😭 I paid around that for my Bolt

Isn't a new one 32k?

How much?

I bought a 2021 tesla model 3 from Tesla occasions with 40k km on it for 26k euro

I recently bought a six month old 2025 Model 3 Highland RWD long range, 4000 miles, red with white seats, Enhanced Autopilot, detachable towbar, 4.5 years manufacture’s warranty £35,800. You overpaid in my opinion.

But why don't you think of this before you buy the car.

Yes

21 December 2025, bought m3 sr 2022, 20.000 km for 22.000$

I have a 2021 M3P and I would love to get 300k miles on my car, so I have a legitimate question on how to achieve this. What constitutes “taking care of it” to get to get to this milestone? Let’s assume that the known battery issues with the 2021 year model doesn’t affect my M3P. Thanks in advance for your help.

If that includes tax / title etc. it’s an ok deal but not amazing. Probably could have found one several thousand cheaper.

Kissimmee, FL.[ Here's my thread on it](https://www.reddit.com/r/TeslaModel3/comments/1rei01g/2023_model_3_loving_it/) Keep an eye on the tesla used site, deals pop up and go very quickly. I had this bookmarked for 4-5 days and was checking it relentlessly [https://www.tesla.com/inventory/used/m3?VehicleHistory=CLEAN&arrangeby=plh&zip=32773&range=200](https://www.tesla.com/inventory/used/m3?VehicleHistory=CLEAN&arrangeby=plh&zip=32773&range=200) it was listed $23.5k online and I think with taxes and tag it was a hair over $25k Edit: Here's one I found just now, im sure others will pop up over the next few days https://preview.redd.it/khtgy5eh38ng1.png?width=888&format=png&auto=webp&s=739a0ac1bb649f76f05a1ae212b5ca6db0357cdb

Overpaid but it’s a nice car

Well I paid about 60 for mine in 2020.

There was a 23 standard rwd on Carvana that sold for $28990 with 2494 miles in nearly perfect shape. (carvana.com/vehicle/4218157) Still good bargains out there but hard to see them all.

2023 model 3 lr is 26800 at 40k miles.

you don't look stupid.......

2021 M3P 50k miles on for 24900 white interior

absolutely, its been one of the best cars i've ever owned. we own 4 cars and we us the Tesla far more than anything else because its just so easy to use.

You may have overpaid, but it will be the best car you ever own. I promise you that. I got a 2022 LR AWD with 19000 miles on it for 28000. I bought at the right time though when there was a surplus back in November.

I got a 2022 M3 Performance with 27k miles for $30k a couple of months back off of Carvana.

Bought my 23’ m3 LR w/13kmi last May for 30k$

Who knows. If we have Teslas, we dont care how much current ones cost. Go do a search yourself.

I bought a certified used 2023 M3 LR for that price in December. Car had 14,000 miles.

I like to think I lucked out. Got a 21 M3 LR in perfect condition with lots of upgrades basically everything I would have done. Only 5000 miles on her. Paid 32k. Idk. I feel good and it’s been great.

22 M3LR white on white with 49k for 21500

Sounds about right with the changes between 2022 and 2023. Heat pump and all.

I bought a M3P 2018 with 1 owner clean carfax 38k miles for $21k. I couldn't say no.

Yes, I think so, because I paid $28,000 for a 2018 Tesla 3, and your model is newer.

No it’s not worth it. You can get a 2021-2023 model 3 performance for $27k for 50k+ miles. Or even a 2021-2023 LR AWD w accel boost for like under $25k for 50k+ miles. I don’t think your car is worth over 24k tbh.

Genuine question because I see this a lot… why don’t you check if the price is good **before** you buy stuff? It seems weirdly common for people to buy things and then ask “I just bought this, did I get a good deal?”, and I completely don’t understand the mindset of why you wouldn’t ask the question first, it confuses me so much

You overpaid but the car is so solid I don’t think it matters. I got mine in 21 and it still feels like new. Just take care of it, wash it often inside and out, it’ll love you back.

Does Tesla's price vary per location? A car in California might be higher than other states... Does the car have Enhanced Autopilot?

Not one bit, and quite the opposite. You will love her for a long time.

So that you don’t have the LFP battery? I feel like the RWD is the best value simply because of that. I love my ‘23 m3 RWD. Only 22k miles and I paid 24.6 from Tesla. I have the full warranty until Dec 2028. I can’t think of a better buy

That’s more than the insurance company gave me and I had 18 Red M3P full self driving, free supercharging for life, full PPF, brand new tires, complete carbon fiber dash. I had a few more miles new it was $86,513.

60k for 27k? yeah you got a little taken. but it is what it is.

I just got my 2023 model 3 standard range 63k miles for $1996 OTD, battery is at 92% health. I’m military so I saved like 2k on taxes and registration

Would not have bought that specially a standard range, I can 2020-2023 performance versions with included connectivity package and fsd fully payed off, if you are patient they come out often and similar mileage of not all good mileage since these are tesla cars the mileage can go high but no worries on tesla motors but I know it scares people of that don't know much about tesla cars in general but I often see those specs from 50k90k miles but to me I would get the performance versions never standard.

The other big factor is noise, which is partly from cleaning up the frame and a larger part noise dampening glass.

Same.

Por el precio de los seguros xD

It’s fine. Do you enjoy the car? That’s really all I’d be asking myself if I were you.

In Jan I bought standard 23 m3 with 38k miles from Tesla for 23,500

Fewer miles

Nice, only ones i see that low are salvage titles

For not getting the performance, yes.

I’m in New York, what’s some good sites to check out for deals and compare and contrast

Hopefully it's got FSD!

Can I share to the class? 🤓☝️ I just bought a MYLR 23' for 28 out the door. 40k miles w/ boost acceleration already on it :)

Try 32k miles, 21k cost. Ohio as well.

If you like it it’s worth it. It’s slightly more than I paid for mine end of January from Tesla Gainsville FL. ‘23 model 3 stnd 44k miles for $22.5k. I absolutely love the car. Don’t worry to much about 2k especially if you like the car. The prices on teslas fluctuate more than any other manufacturer out there.

Ty

Nice spec/color by the way https://preview.redd.it/7z0ck45tkbng1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5cbfc08b791da61e57081e561b9a3072db395872

Sold mine for $20500 with only 36k miles

Was it wrecked or in poor condition? The only ones I've seen in that price range have at least 90k or older models.

Facts

I dint think you did bad. Couple grand over but still good. Car looks in great shape

Just bought a 2017 M3LR with 26k miles and paid $17k

I’ve overpaid before. It happens. You’ll love the car tho.

We just got a 23 model y performance for our jetski hauling. 13k miles $30k from Tesla website.

Where? And is it in terrible cosmetic condition? This is well below market

What’s wrong with the white interior?

Got my 2016 model S with sc01 for $12k (130k mi)

Traded my 2020 LR for 17k it had 49k miles bought a used 2022 Y LR with boost for 26k June last year. Yeah it’s a 17-20k car less if trading in since it’s a standard range

There was a small paint chip on the back bumper. minor damage to the bottom of the front bumper.

Hmmm would not say you overpaid. It depends on the condition of the car. I got one last year for a similar price after 3 months of search with a befriendet „tesla specialist“. Current prices are nearly the same. But I live in Europe, maybe our market for teslas is more expensive.

Well this depends on where you are at? I sold my 2021 Model 3 long range with 56k for 20k. I feel I listed it way too low.

It’s about what you think.

got my 2023 standard model 3 with 14k miles for 26k

Last month. 2021 M3 S+ 55k miles for $19K off brand dealers 🥲

Got my ‘23 RWD 36k miles for about the same price out the door

If you bought it from Tesla used inventory, it’s worth more than buying used from a dealer.

How do people not do research before making life changing purchases 😭

I got a 22’ AWD for $21k with just under 50k miles, got it from Tesla aswell. I used the tax credit though

August 2025, Portugal, Dec 2019 Model 3 LR AWD w/FSD, 164k miles, approx 20k$ (17.5k €). 😀

Congrats on your new baby. Now that due to yet another war, prices of used EVs will rise, so just enjoy the fact gas price can skyrocket and also no more pumping gas.

I paid 55k brand new no you’re not stupid

Idk imma go to the dealership and get a offer and than sell private for slightly more

2021 Model 3 Performance w FSD 50k miles 23k out the door

I got my Model 3 for $29,000 with 9000 miles on it.

Just got a 2023 model 3 with 19k for $24k. Definitely worth it probably the funnest care I've ever had. Congrats!

If you have more comments than upvotes, the answer is yes

same i got a red one with 23k miles for 24k

[removed]

Clean title might I add

No one can answer it for you..

YES. You couldve got a performance or a Highland for that. I sold my 2023 Model 3 Performance a year ago with 29,000 miles for $29,000. The buyer used keysavvy and got the $4k tax credit and ended up getting it for $25,000 which was a STEAL! You paid WAY too much but I hope you enjoy the car anyway.

Show us that negative equity you rolled in though.

Same here. But mine had slightly less mileage at 19k. Close enough.

I got my 2023 M3P with 28k miles and some really nice forged rims for $28k a couple months back. So eh

No, your not Stupid just don't let it happen again. I just paid 28k for 2023 M3LR 18k miles w/ Accel Boost with Tesla Pre-Owned here Washington. Check Tesla website first. They have 100+ checkpoint inspection and any previous salvaged/rebuilt title will not pass. Also an 1yr addition warranty past Manu warranty. Downside to using Tesla Site is $500 Non Refundable order fee. Shipping cost if ordering from different state. And your buying site unseen unless its available locally and you can test drive it. Also a rush of 2023 Lease Returns should be flooding the market this year so for those that can hold out for that would reap benfits. Enjoy your M3.

I bought a 2023 model y performance for 32k before taxes and ttl

With 15k miles

Got a 2021 y awd long range with every option for 21k

Same. 22sr with fsd 7k miles for 27k

In answer to your question, yes you may be, but car is a good idea.

60%

No just enjoy your car’

I bought my 2023 standard with 23,000 miles on it and only paid $20,000

Damn, you got a crazy deal. Basically a new car

Yeah. Waiting for the other shoe to drop. It was 27k plus tax so $29.5k. Hopefully there's nothing wrong since warranty expired 3 months into my ownership. Other than that I think it was a good deal. I did transfer fsd to my juniper so I have fsd paid for on a 2026 model y which is way better value than on the 22 m3 with hw3.

Don’t listen to this guy. It’s not a $17K car. Not even close.

A trade is not a purchase. You could’ve sold it private party for at least $22K if you wanted to unload it quick.

No

Trade in value is not retail value. They aren’t selling you the car for the trade in price.

cheaper than a new Toyota and 100x nicer... good job!

I have a 2023 that I bought new- please tell me why it's the best! I do love it, though

YI s, worth it. Great car!!!!!!

I bought mine new too. I’ve rented so many of them prior to and after buying mine when on trips. Previous model years have been plagued with build quality issues and poor quality materials. Those cars just get worn out faster. My 2023 is still in MINT condition. Knock on wood though. The late 2022 model years aren’t bad either in terms of quality and they include the parking sensors. Not sure if Tesla disables them now though.

I just got the same thing with 24k miles for 27k on Carvana

I paid $21k for a 22 M3 LR AWD with 40k miles. That was in June 2024.

That’s a little steep I think…. I bought my 2018 mid range with 66k on her for $17,750 in damn near perfect condition. But yours has more range and it’s newer so it might not be as steep as l thought. Congrats tho!

Not even

What is done is done, that is what I told my self today, I came home with 2. A 2023 MYP and a 2023 MYLR - 21K miles on it and 32K, $27K and $30K, I know I over paid, but after driving an 8 passenger escalade for more than 25 years. I think I just made a reason with myself...LOL. Congrats!

I got a 2023 Tesla Model 3 rwd with 7800 miles for $26700 from Tesla.com.   Dark grey with white interior.

My daughter has a 2023 with 40,500 you can get for $23,500. In San Diego
