I had a 2018 M3 and just traded it to Tesla with 160k miles and only about $200 in service over 8 years.

I have a 2019 now, it’s a September build so it’s not too bad in that way, just by luck, I don’t do enough research before buying.

Got late 2020 pre-facelift Model 3 LR AWD, looks like a good buy so far!

I bought the 2021 long range in 2024 and so far it has been going great in our cold climate. I have started to worry about the heat pump though.<br>I start it from a warm garage every winter day to minimize heat pump strain. Have been pre warming it on the other end of the trip.
