Is there a Tesla in My Future? Model Y Performance Road Test
My thoughts on whether there will one day be a Tesla in my garage, while driving the Model Y Performance! Since buying my Porsche Taycan, there have been a lot of questions, especially with the Model S Plaid Plus soon to arrive. Join me then for my first drive in the Y to see what it's like.
The Tesla Model Y is available with very limited options; the Long Range or Performance Models, with 5 exterior colours, 2 interiors, and then adding self-driving, the 7 seat configuration, and/or a tow hook. This particular car at My Tesla Miami, a division of First Class Autosports, is the highest of those specs as a Performance with self-driving, plus given the limited options it also has numerous upgrades including the wrap, carbon fibre parts, new wheels and more.
With a start price of $50k, or $60k for the Performance model, somehow the Model Y offers 0-60mph in just 3.5 seconds - up there with supercars of just 10 years ago. However, the famed issues of Teslas certainly show through with poor panel alignment and quality issues that are instantly noticeable.

To Tesla or not to Tesla? Join me for a drive in the Model Y Performance with My Tesla Miami, a division of First Class Autosports, to see what it's like and think about whether a Tesla might one day join my garage.
@Justice Bradley Cool! It took like 20 mins but it worked!!
I dont know if anyone gives a damn but I just hacked my girlfriends Instagram password using InstaPortal. Find it on google ;)
2021 tesla model s plaid+ !!!!!!!!!!!
Come on , Shmee. Admit it. U hate it. Its just rubbish.
@Bye bye inferior trumpcucks , not a cult boy , I just don't like liars like you. Tesla is a brand new company and as such it will have something called GROWING PAINS. Other companies have been in business for decades and they all had their share of problems when they started.
Good discussion of the pros and cons. Your comments about the lack of "emotion" are interesting.
Tesla must be nice for roadtrips with that low sound volume
I love those farting noises
Can someone tell me what wheels (brand, model) are those?
Did tesla go to the "McLaren school of automotive manufacturing"? Or was is it the other way around?
In the process of buying a new car right now. Literally can't wait to finish it all off and drive the car... It's such a weird feeling being this excited :') Can't stop thinking about it goddamnit
I really don't get the hype with Tesla at all. They are plain/boring looking and build quality is like European cars 20 years ago.
Like squad hit it
Why are you forcing one of the best you tubers. Let him do everything himself.
That car is so ugly
Just when you thought a Tesla couldn’t look any worse....let’s put a hideous wrap and carbon on it
Model S Model 3 Model X Model Y S.3.X.Y by ELON MUSK
This car is shit and a pure nightmare to any car enthusiast, future is grim
doesn't having to look at a touch screen for every little change, take away from focusing on the road? Why is texting while driving not allowed, but focusing on a screen to work through menus while doing 60mph is perfectly ok? And focusing on the bottom of the screen, which is worst scenario of all considering the road view is over the screen. Not only does the touch screen force you to divert your eyes from the road, the placement of buttons on that screen prolongs the amount of time your attention will stay diverted.
You doing any local meet with Fans?
I know it's a video about a tesla but then there's me like hay look a liberty lol. 10:15
Don’t listen to the haters. Tesla arguably has a higher owner satisfaction than any other brand. Get the Roadster!
pls no
🤔 I won't go for it. Don't need 3,5 Sec from 0-100, if the built-quality is 😓. The intereur inside looks 😓
Is Tesla paying you to say this because the Ford Mach E has passed up Tesla in almost all areas. Biggest thing is you can actually find a machanic to maintenance the EV Ford, a big downside with Teslas.
Don’t know if that’s fair to say the quality issues of that car. That model specifically has had a lot of modifications and I am sure a lot of the issues currently are due to the modification..
Yep, it doesn't sound like my 1966 Ford Cobra replica, but you can always create a recording and use it with the supplied app to impress your friends. Ha Ha
If ur gonna get a Tesla it obviously has to be the model s plaid +
Lol stop this Tesla BS, Tim.
Tesla are transport devices not like motor cars or in F1 power units
I don't want as Tesla, however, I feel in the future I may have no choice.
You always have a choice.
It is quite loud in the inside despite being electrical.
Tesla model S Plaid imo is the one to get 520mile range 200mph (claimed) and the best thing and by far the better than your Porsche is the Tesla charging network. Watching your video of the problems you had charging your Porsche and that 200 mile range for the price is utter crap. Yes the Porsche is miles better built car BUT imo Tesla will improve in building its EV's and over time you own Tesla with the updates over wifi bet you the Plaid 520mile range will get higher.
So Teslas car range is S3XY?
Funny how not a single Tesla actually looks sexy.
Extensive modifications: early 2000’s style cherry red two tone🤮
I'd stick to petrol, until the very end Shmee.
Same here. After that, ill just walk.
The Acceleration is fantastic. But it feels like a one Trick Pony to me. If a car is this fast it had to be better in the corners. Same by the Model S Plaid at the Nürburgring. For a over 1000hp car, it is slow. 7.30 is slow. I hope the Roadster is better.
🤮🤮
It's got to have been like 10 years that we've been about a Tesla roadster
From Teslas models S,3,X,Y that ones my least favorite.
With so many cars how much is your insurance 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
Ugly van
Tesla’s are trash. Complete waste of money. Horrible quality for the price.
I have no doubt you will simply have to have a Tesla Model S Plaid + and of course a Tesla Roadster with the SpaceX package. Since the Cybertruck broke the internet at its launch, I’ll bet you’ll be sniffing a tri motor too? I guarantee that will be a popular video.
Hahaha.... 28 degrees Celsius is boiling? Dude! That's pleasant beautiful weather. Try being in 38 degrees and 75% humidity. That is boiling. Air conditioning in a car is so bad for your health.
ffff that thing dude u alreadt have that weird green thing
nice! but one thing to say: no tesla owner uses the key card ;) you just approach the car and it unlocks itself.
83 degrees in Miami. Nice and cool winter day for florida. Tim is dieing of excessive heat🤣.
There is a cheaper version now, goes for $39k
Not anymore
Churns out the same intro.
You need to visit Manny Khoshbin!
@Shmee150 Looking forward to that! Keep the good work
I definitely need to do so :)
Not a fan of Tesla or electric vehicles.
When we have to go into this crappy electric meaning were forced into it I will go and get the crappiest electric car there is !!! as quite frankly what is the difference between a 1. Golf cart 2. Milk float 3. Tesla well the only difference is the Tesla is faster thats it !!!!!
Lovely car which will suit some people. I believe Petrol Ped (Motoring ROworldr) is planning a Tesla Y but it's not for me, it's not what I call a drivers car. I like to have to drive my car, I actually don't like alerts when the car decides I'm close to something and things which force you stay in your lane when you're trying an overtake or to pull off a road onto a slip road. I feel safer driving myself and I've never had a crash in 30 years driving.
Yes yes to tesla cybertruck please sir
I will say this model Y is an early version so it inherently has bad quality, more recent ones are better but not perfect
Resale value.................HORRIBLE!!!!
Bob's your uncle?
FFS!
have you still got the GR Yarris
what happens when it rains and ur driving the tesla?
You would never slag a McLaren off like you done to that Tesla with the reverse mirror. Such a minor irrelevant dig really.
@Bye bye inferior trumpcucks Transparency is key. A rear view mirror is yes abit of plastic with a mirror on it, which once set in place it will never fail. I would understand if he complained about the full interior. Hardly a fanboy
I don’t wish to go on but could you reassure me you are doing something to offset your CO2 flights etc). With your means this is easy done but you know, hate to be a party pooper but people are now actually dying from Nox poisoning. Great content of course but please can you play your part. Thanks.
4:24 it's not frikin boiling I've been in 52 C
Go see stradman
shmee if you wanna what the truth is with the quality message me before i got laid off i was watching this situation first hand i was working at a service center as a service assistant but my partner quickly moved to service advisor witch was great but it left me with all of the responsibilities including taking care of the loaner vehicles and meeting customers to return their car and pick up my loaner car or the opposite and also if you wanna know how they actually handle stuff like this message me ill give you my # i worked and have had a lot of training for different manufacturers and before tesla i worked for Mercedes as a Technician and i am 4th generation mechanic and still help rum my family shop its been in the same town since the 60s and i know world of mouth and the truth with the quality issues compared to Mercedes i have seen way worse quality issues with Mercedes we used to joke in training about how when instructor was working at a dealership a customer bought a black Maybach and the customer paid the dealership to have the instructor clay block the entire car and the gaps are just as bad .
They need to greatly improve their quality control, shame as the model Y looks a nice car
Some people prefer panel gaps and interior materials, and a suspension 99% of the people will never use, .... others innovation, range and efficiency, usability and charging network , performance, software and price....
I can’t stop looking at the Aston...
I would love to see you keep making videos about new teslas. But I do not think you would appreciate a Tesla on a long term
Personally I couldn't live without that visceral feeling you just get from a real motor. I just don't care what they do or how fast they make EV's, nothing is going to make me smile like firing up the naturally aspirated V10 in the Lamborghini Huracan Evo Spyder for example.
Very good reviews as aways time, however I feel that the quality has taken a step backwards, in regards to new method of recording. It looked more professional with your multiple camera setup, okay it may take a little longer to set up than just giving your GF a camera to hold, but the result speak for themselves. Not taking anything away from püppi150 as she does an amazing job, it's just lacking the polished product of old. "A long time fan from the gaming days"
I don't know why he even bothered doing this review he doesn't even like tesla Apart from the instant torque
First Shmee video I can’t finish! Absolutely no interest in white goods, I do like the Polestar though. But great business decision if you buy one, they have a massive following in the US...very clever.
28 Degrees boiling.. lols....
keyboard slip...lol! this will make healines.
This Tesla isn't a good looking car.....change my mind.
Stay with taycan Tesla Qc is trash
Model 6? wut
Did you type the ti8le on your phone?

Build quality of tesla is inexcusable its atrocious. Modern version of British Leyland. Would not touch one with a bargepole. Only thing I do like about this one is the steering wheel
14:14 The other way to open the glove-box is to press the right scroll button on your steering wheel and say "open glovebox" Almost everything in a Tesla can be controlled by voice commands: roworld.info/done/video/0HfYqJ3Qc7B9o6Q
if you didn't know shmee is British you can know if very easily he is always mocking about the weather btw great video
Lol Model 6
How boring and ugly is the interior. Who wants basic ? Not me
Model 6 lol
I feel like you shouldn’t waste your money on a Tesla. Tesla’s are dumb as hell, I mean case in point where you have the fart noise. It just shows the ignorant and infantile way people are these days. Common sense isn’t very common these days and honestly people are lazy enough that autonomous driving is not cool. On top of the fact that you can’t hear the beautiful sound of a motor. The only cool thing they have is the performance but, I’m a petrol head and hate EV’s and their ridiculous vanity plates. I don’t like Elon Musk as well so he’ll never get my money.
Geez how many cars do you have now? You have no excuse for being late.
Model y or 6
You can't open the glovebox without going through "the screen"...??? Very convenient....
You can say „open glovebox“
Would like to hear your comparison with the new Fisker...looks good with a bit of "character "..... design that shows that EV's can look good...
You already have the best electric car so far so I wouldn't bother, build quality looks all inferior to porsche/vw/jag etc too.
ROFL!
Evrning🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
2022: Shmee buys a CyberTruck and wraps it in Cerulean Blue
You might wanna change the title. Model 6 doesnt exist XD
I was searching the web when this was lunched
that is one UGLY car
model: S.3.X.Y Elon is a genius
Model 3 was supposed to get the name E, which another brand "owns". This stopped Musk from calling the Tesla range for S E X Y....
ugly looking thing,looks like they chuck them together.wonder how long they will last.super basis super costly.no thanks tesla
Does it have cooled seats too?
Tom is sounding a little like a boomer 😂. But love the review and love your content! Also, the gt 500 is sooo sexy
there are plenty of round abouts in the usa
