    Model 3 Subscriptions & Priority Deliveries

    Yes, we are still planning offering subscriptions on Model 3s this year. Right now, we are focused on getting as many here into our inventory as possible. Then, we'll start placing them with qualified customers. We don't want to get too far out ahead of ourselves, so we aren't actively promoting...

    Model 3 Subscriptions & Priority Deliveries

    Not sure I understand where you are coming from on this. Like I mentioned, we go off of Tesla's actual residual values for a specific make/model. Ours are actually off of their Q4 special pricing, which is quite a bit higher now in 2018. We don't expect our subscription model or leasing to be...

    Model 3 Subscriptions & Priority Deliveries

    Good observation on the difference between our rental vs. a lease. This is an accurate assessment and part of the way we are able to offer the deal we offer to our clients. In practical terms, however, it doesn't feel much different for our customers. Obtaining insurance hasn't been a problem...

    Model 3 Subscriptions & Priority Deliveries

    Hi BarJohn. It would look something like the attached on a Model 3 Long Range with PUP & EAP ($55k MSRP). Hope that helps. Thx, JD

    Model 3 Subscriptions & Priority Deliveries

    I'm not privy to Tesla's algorithm, so I can't say. All I know is that we plan to purchase a certain number of them this year based on our fleet size. It's comparable to the current owner's pool. Hopefully, we can you help you and others get into one or experience one sooner.

    Model 3 Subscriptions & Priority Deliveries

    Well, I don't disagree with you at all. That's part of the reason why I'm doing this business. I believe it's possible to offer customers a better financial deal and still drive an awesome new Tesla. In our case, we actually reduce the purchase price by $5k from what we paid right from the start...

    Model 3 Subscriptions & Priority Deliveries

    We ordered a bunch of Model 3s last week and hope to get them delivered in the next 3 weeks. We are ordering as many Model 3s as we are able based on Tesla's supply constraints. Our thinking initially, is to utilize the initial ones in our rental pools here locally to give potential customers an...

    Model 3 Subscriptions & Priority Deliveries

    Well, the baseline scenario is a 36-month term and 12k miles per year. The buyout price is something we are working on, but it will likely be in the 60% of MSRP range. (e.g., $32k for a $54k MSRP M3)

    Model 3 Subscriptions & Priority Deliveries

    Hi BarJohn. We handle the $7,500 tax credit in the same way that Tesla does...we add it back to the residual so the financed amount is reduced and therefore your monthly payments are lower. On the buyout price & timeline, we are working on those details. We typically figure out what the...

    Model 3 Subscriptions & Priority Deliveries

    Thanks for the support and kind words. We are trying to work this out with Tesla right now. We are ordering as many as they will let us order. All of ours are slated for "priority delivery", but this can have several different meanings. We are getting some as soon as 3 weeks from now. My best...

    If we had a location setup there, we would definitely offer it. We are excited to test this model to see how well it works.
