In San Diego, CA, the used Model 3 market is not a simple headline-price story. The median ask is $23,990, but recent solds came in at $25,499, and cars are averaging 26 days listed, so closed comps still matter. Year splits are substantial: 2018 and 2019 sold near $19,990 and $19,952, 2021 and 2022 sold near $24,630 and $24,084, 2023 sold at $27,000, and 2025 sold at $37,120. Because active listings average 66,677 miles and supply is concentrated in Rear-Wheel Drive trims, San Diego shoppers will get a cleaner read by comparing a listing against the same year and trim rather than against the metro-wide median alone.
