miles?

take over my Down Payment.. Fantastic Tesla 90D Lease deals for someone ready to jump on it now - can't beat that deal on a loaded 90D with 30 miles on it

Hey guys, I have a deposit on one of the these "deal" cars, and I'm thinking of going in another direction. Would anyone be interested in taking over my $2,500 deposit, assuming this is a viable option for me? PM me if interested. 30 miles on the odometer (yes thirty) It's located in Tempe...

My car was accessible with the VIN, until I put a deposit on it. $22K discount off of $110K MSRP

Unfortunately I'm a W2 employee

That's true if the state you're buying in has reciprocity with the state you're registering in. This is the case for me.

I filled out the finance credit app.. It went through Chase. They're requiring that I put 10% down, and cover TTL

Thursday, I put a deposit on the following: Model S 90D Demo with 23 miles on the odometer Deep Blue Metallic ($1,000) Glass Roof ($1,500) Tan Leather interior w/ White headliner ($3,300) Carbon Fiber Decor ($250) Enhanced Autopilot ($5,000) Premium Upgrades Package ($3,500) Smart Air...

I'm not sure how it's done in Canada. But in the US the Lessor sets the residual rate. Which for Tesla, the lessor is US Bank. You can of course get your own outside Lessor. Basically the Lessor buys the car from the manufacturer, and then "rents" it to you.

not quite the way it works out, because of astronomical Money Factor. which works out to a 5% APR over the term of the 36month lease I would pay $37,743 or roughly 34% of sticker. still not bad. I'm on leasehacker, I posted here: same username: UPDATED: Tesla Lease 913/month on 108k msrp...

US Bank inflates the residual by $7,500 to account for the tax credit, making leases more attractive then they would be otherwise. And from what I hear, they also have some punitive early lease termination clauses. So while this may work on Audi and other brands, it's not worth pursuing on a...

I dunno, it seems as long as the car is worth more than $52,211 after 3 years, I'd come out ahead on owning it, and I wouldn't be restricted by the lease terms (mileage, when I can turn it in, etc) It seems to me that the only way leasing would make sense for me would be for the following...
