Hi:
I have a GTS on order, delivery set for September. My ideal car. However, in the current climate, I'm struggling to rationalize the price. Plus, suddenly there are a bunch of 4s used, at not totally unreasonable prices (~$125k-$135k).

If I were to go with the 4S used, NOT including the standard features I'd lose going from GTS -> 4S, what else is different on the 2021s vs the 2022s?

Think of the question as what's the downgrade, if any, from a 2022 4s to a 2021 4s? The PCM? anything else?

Thank you,
Andrew

2021s don't have Android Auto, 2022s have wired Android Auto.

The 2021s might be lemons - best to scrutinize each vehicle's service history and figure out (or ask) why the prior owner walked away. Good luck!

Also, some 2020 and 2021's may have the ANA5 stop sale recall currently. Good Luck with the search!

I forgot about the tax credit. So it's about a 19 k difference between a used 4s in good condition, low miles, 2021, and a new GTS. Not really a clear-cut win. I guess I don't have to decide till near when the car come in. Maybe things will have stabilized by then?

Are used 2021 4S selling for (a lot) cheaper than their MSRP now? Have you considered a new 2022/2023 4S (probably longer wait)?
