    Refreshed 2021+ Model X and Model X Plaid waiting room

    Having the option to deduct sales tax from the value is nice--it's true that some states don't allow this, and it definitely influences a trade-in decision. Tesla is generally the lowest, that's a fairly common theme.

    7 seat waiting room

    This isn't uncommon, especially if you had a 7-seater (they are in high demand). It's also true that Tesla is often the lowest.

    Refreshed 2021+ Model X and Model X Plaid waiting room

    This is true--definitely more of a seller's market now than a buyer's market, but it's still possible to find good deals even in these crazy times!

    2020 Model Y LR AWD, 13,800 miles, Uberturbine Wheels, Spoiler, Hitch (Atlanta)

    That's part of a common complaint with the "big box" algorithmic instant offer companies; that they don't give credit for Tesla-specific features like rare colors (Obsidian Black Metallic), various software features, and other things that you've added or done to the car (and it's something that...

    Need Advice - 2021 Model 3 Long Range Black/Black

    That damage doesn't look bad at all. It's clear why they'd replace the battery, but no frame damage etc. Generally speaking, you probably have a bit less mass appeal with aftermarket suspension etc., as more people than not are looking for a stock Tesla. That said, there are plenty of people...

    Couple questions before ordering.

    Tesla generally tends to be the lowest (although not 100% of the time). We'd also agree with your statement about them "not liking" being in the used car business! A lot of the "big box" buyers (CarMax, Carvana, Vroom, etc.) are very heavily algorithmically-based, and you may find that offers...

    Need Advice - 2021 Model 3 Long Range Black/Black

    Hi there, happy to help! Bummer that you ran over a rock--but it happens; we see minor/non-accident damage all the time in listings; life happens. How much does it affect the price of the vehicle? This depends on a few things: 1) Do you have all the repair records? 2) What was the extent of the...

    Can I sell my brand new tesla to someone the day I take delivery?

    This range is fairly accurate based on our latest data for the Model 3 you're describing, although this literally changes daily--especially in this market. That said, when looking to "flip" a Tesla--a lot of people don't take sales tax into consideration; we get this question all the time. If...

    Looking to Sell Your Model S3XY? Check Out Find My Electric! The #1 Used Tesla Site on the Web!

    Great question, Jake! Let us shed some light on that... There are four main factors that really influence the time to sell a vehicle: Price (asking price, and final agreed upon selling price) Photos (this is huge--people often don't put enough time into their photos) Seller responsiveness...

    November Orders

    This, for sure! A lot of people ask us this question when selling a Model 3 SR+...and we always say, you aren't competing so much with other sellers, but you're actually competing with Tesla... When someone asks too much for an SR+, people will just buy a new LR for a couple thousand more from...

    Need help from those who sold to 'givemethevin.com'. Thank you.

    Hope this worked out OK for you! It can be tough dealing with unknowns in situations like these, and also having to take a "leap of faith" as you said. Focusing on excellent customer service so important!

    Looking to buy a used Model S. Looking for clarification on years.

    1) Free Unlimited Supercharging ended in early 2017. We have pretty in-depth posts about it here and here. If you drive a lot or like to travel, it's a wonderful thing to have. 2) Tesla started making AP2 cars (the hardware version that can be updated) in late 2016, around the October/November...

    Ioniq 5

    We were just talking today with the FME team about how the IONIQ is at the top of various EV charts for a lot of different reasons, many of which you've mentioned here. With the tax credit an all, many consider this to be a no-brainer as well! Congrats on locking one up!
