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...

New MYP is 57k. Used MYP 2021 is about 40k.

Definitely don't have the budget for a new MYP but would be interested in a preowned MYP. Any reservations about buying a 2021 used Y with say 40-60k miles? I understand the warranty would be expired due to mileage but is it worth the risk? For argument sake say $57+ for new and $41k for...

Dealer said if he can find a Y in transit but not yet claimed he can probably offer me a discount. My question to him was this a rejected car, something wrong with it, etc. Said it's Tesla's physiology not to have cars in inventory so they will discount about $1000 to move them quickly. Any...

I have no doubt that if I pick up a preowned 3 it will very quickly be my primary mode of transportation. Once the range anxiety goes away there would be no reason not to use the 3 all of the time. And I have a feeling the 3 would eventually become a Y.

I know someday I'll get a Tesla, whether for my primary car or maybe as a fun 3rd car as an introduction to the Tesla family. So here are a few questions that I have. The first being would you ever buy a preowned Tesla? Maybe a long range 3 or even a performance? Not looking to break the...

I guess all the BS articles I read online.

What I don't understand is the future is so bight for TSLA and even the current numbers are fantastic why are people saying this is a dead cat bounce? It'll be $50, etc.

Since I am a novice maybe I'll stick to buy and hold. What about diversification? TSLA is a great company and represents a great opportunity for investors. Why not go "all in" on TSLA? I completely understand the limit to downsides, etc., but seriously, what other company has as much upside...

So being relatively new to this and only ever exposed to "buy and hold" what about options? Do I just keep buying TSLA stock or do I look at options for less risk exposure?

I distinctly remember having the conversation with my MIL, who's financial advisor would not let he invest in TSLA, when it was $886 saying "what's the downside in investing in TSLA at this price? I mean it can only go up". Plus my last two years of getting caught up in the meme stock...

I kind of feel the same way. Have some {Mod: other stuff that doesn't belong in this thread}. Anyway, definitely looking to put anything I can into TSLA. Might regret it....

Too late to get into TSLA right now? Feel like I missed the boat with this run up. I need a few days for settled cash to be available and I'm a little worried that I will have really missed my opportunity by late next week.

Given the recent run up and the S&P date is there anything that would preclude you from buying say $100k worth of shares this week? Is it "safer" to wait till after the inclusion date to see where things settle?

Kind of my uneducated thought on this as well. There will definitely be dips along the way but I can't imagine anyone betting against long term growth. And my long term I mean even 6 months. The future is wide open.

No one thinks TSLA is going to drop/crash given the incredible performance lately?

Intersting conversation with my MIL today who spoke to her Edwards Jones financial advisor. She specifically asked about TSLA and he discouraged it. "I can't recommend TSLA and we are not allowed to invest in TSLA". Interesting because she is completely content making 2-4% on her money...

When it comes down to it, there is no other stock that I have as much confidence in as TSLA. Its tempting to try and grab a few of the big gainers short term along the way but the issue is I don't know of any! Therefore, I will be investing what I have available to me in TSLA. I'd be gambling...

All I know is I am bitter at myself for not rolling over an IRA I had available to me many years ago and go with TSLA. Here I am sitting here trying to jump and hope its at an OK time. Could wait for the pull back.....but that just may never happen.

Rolling over one of my previous employers 401k into an IRA this week. Gives me a little bit of money to freely invest. Nothing huge but this one particular roll over nets me about 300k. Torn between going TSLA, MMEDF and Trulieve. Of course I can split the investments but these are the three...

Kind of how I feel as well. Hear so many people wanting 5-7% returns meanwhile TSLA is up close to 700% this year. That is just absolutely insane. Hate that my 401k is only available to Fidelity funds. I'd go TSLA if possible..... Still trying to decide on my 300k....it'll definitely have...

I get it but I am sure people on here also invest in more than one stock. Is everyone 100% TSLA here? If so thats awesome!!

So I have about 100k to invest and looking for a nice sizable return over the next 3-4 months. I'm not sure if anything is as attractive as TSLA. Thoughts? MindMed, MSOS ETF? SWAV ?

Might get into the MSOS ETF and TSLA. Maybe even Trulieve individually as well. I have about 300k I'm comfortable investing at this point.

I'm confused. So we think the stock will go down on Deb 18th??

Thoughts on this philosophy on options, etc? It depends on your account size but no way would I go all in on any stock. Elon Musk goes into the looney bin or something more serious happens to him and it could tank and take years to get your money back. A safer bet might be to buy something like...

Just opened a TD Ameritrade account. I should be able to manage my own IRA at this point starting next week.

It's either pick from the usual Fidelity funds or go IRA and have the ability to pick stocks as well as funds. Given that option why not put 100k or even 200k into TSLA stock? Hindsight is 20/20, could have bought years ago but I figure I'd be saying the same thing 2-3 years from now. Of...

Makes me want to buy 200k of TSLA.....

I'll have access to the money in about a week. 100k is tempting, 200k is very tempting!

Rolling over my 401 and have the option to put it in an IRA account which I can mange. I know better but 100k of TSLA is tempting.

I'm not in at all yet as my 401k is all tied up in Fidelity and work doesn't allow for individual stock investing. Guess I've got to put any extra cash into an etrade (does that still exist?) and buy a few shares at a time. Good news, my 401k is up 52% this year due to my position in my former...

Test drive scheduled for Friday. Can't wait!

I'd suck it up and pay it on my own. Unless there is a place I charge that will give me a receipt. Otherwise I am SOL for the charging expenses and would consider it part of the personal expense of owning the Y. As a previous post mentioned, look at it as owning the Y for x-650 per month...

I'm very much so leaning towards the Y. If I knew when the new battery would be coming out that would make the decision easy! Wonder if the range will be dramatically better?

I drive a lot for work, easily 16-20k miles a year with my company reimbursing $650/mo+ gas expenses. Maintenance, repairs, upkeep and insurance is all my responsibility. Auto must be less than 5yrs old to quality. So, do I look for a 17/18 Explorer, certified with 7yr/100k warranty for...
