The 300zx Twin Turbo is a childhood dream of mine. If it gets driven 10 miles a year but sits there pretty in my garage I'll be just as happy as if I put 10k miles a year on it. The 23 MYP I got today represents car #64 for me. Variety is the spice of life.

Had enough experience driving my wife's 23 MYP that the decision for me was easy. There was no other ICE that I even considered so the MYP was the way to go. Best part is, it's absolutely not a compromise at all. The MYP could be 25k or 90k and I'd still lust over it. The fun car should...

Picking up my 23 MYP this afternoon.

Maybe I’ll run the leasing numbers. 15k a year.

And just like that Tesla raised the price of black exterior from $1000 to $1500.

No go on the model 3. Need the cargo area for work stuff. SUV type is required.

I know. But just hanging out on a Friday night and figured I'd throw the idea out there.

23 MYP is about 53 now and I'm stubbornly holding out hoping it gets to 50 and/or the few used 23's at random dealers are sold for a realistic used price. Love how the X dealerships have preowned 21/22/23 Y's for MORE than you can buy one brad new from Tesla.

Trying to justify buying a Y now and not in March when my ICE lease is up. Work pays for my lease via an allowance of $650/mo and also fuel but I'm going to be 6k miles over (about $1300) and will be right at the point where it might need new brakes and new tires. Sitting at 47,500 miles, have...

Isn't the federal tax credit based on income? It's not the assets that are the killer it's the W2 and can't hide a thing.

Shared Power thingy it is then! We plug her car in overnight regardless of miles driven and have it set to "Off-peak Hours" and to 80%. Precondition for departure at 730am. Next challenge will be does the cord reach MYP #2. It'll be close but I am sure doable. I've got 4 more payments...

Love my wife's 23 MYP so much I'm thinking of getting one of my own when my ICE lease is up in 3 months. We had a electrician run wire and install a 60amp breaker and with the Tesla wall charger we get 48a charging, theoretically at least. My question is do I add a second wall charger via the...

3 won’t work for us. Going from a Range Rover sport to a MYP for her and for me a Ford Explorer. Definitely would need 2 Y’s or I’ve got to get another ICE suv in February.

Can't do a M3 because I need the space in the rear for work and generally carrying stuff around. I think a 21 MYP for 40k is a decent deal but still have the $3600 in lease payments due. I go by the "if your first offer didn't insult them then it wasn't low enough." Even if I found one for 40...

Agree the Performance is not where the value is but it's what I want. Bought the wife a new 23 MYP and I'm addicted now. My ICE lease is up in March but I'm tempted to eat the 610/mo x 6 months and get a MYP sooner than March. I'm sure the used process will drop some but I have my eye on a...
