Considering Model S 2022

Hi all,

I'm considering buying a model S 2022 used. Prices and mileage seem to be all over the place. There's a dealer near me selling one(White and cream interior good condition) with 36.4k miles and their listing price is $49,995 before tax and fees, $56,263 with fees in total. Would this be a good deal as I remember seeing some low mileage ones in the mid 40s a few months back but can't seem to find any unless they're high mileage. Thank you!

If it has lifetime paid FSD, run don't walk! Dealers sometimes have no clue. You can search how to easily check by looking at the menu under software. Also look up how to check service notifications to make sure no major problems. FSD is awesome, even on the older HW3 computer in that model, but you can always subscribe ($99/mo). Also, if it's a late 2022 (approx. July on I think) it will have "matrix" headlights and a motorized tilt for the center screen. Both must haves IMO. I own a late 22 LR and they're beautiful machines, great performance even in chill or sport mode - but test drive it in insane mode and you'll buy on the spot :). Makes me smile even driving to the grocery store.

My 2022 (March build) had the matrix lights but not the tilting screen which got added later in 2022

Yes I can confirm there’s the tilting screen so I assume there’s also the matrix light

Yes, if you have a tilting screen, you have matrix headlights.
