lol. You called it correctly. I see one on the site that’s at an even bigger discount. Oh well I purchased another brand today. I took the entire thing as an omen to try other brands the “one price model “ that doesn’t seem To actually be one price can be frustrating. Either Elon will slash...

It was new. My issue was I was trading in my 18 model s with fsd 52k miles. They were giving me 28,900. I was buying a new 23 car for 50k. Sticker of 53….. picking it up the next morning. another car same lot comes available for 48 k. They wouldn’t let me switch instantly. And during the...

Thanks for the comment. Nooooo. I’m not saying I would never buy another Tesla. Just more of mentioning that in my opinion the policy gets in their way of selling cars. I use electric cars for my business. So I will always buy one and no pride involved. If it was urgent I would have paid on...

Thanks for the info. thats helpful

well at lease someone else sees it. it seems that many in the forum don't see it that way.

maybe most people on the forum are well versed in tesla way of doing things I wasn’t. So i guess that’s why me being surprised they wouldn't simply price match themselves is so crazy to people here.

Ok. I’ll explain 1. The other tesla cars I purchased were new orders. So this was my first experience with in stock purchase. I had no idea that Tesla wouldn’t basically match their own price at their own dealer for a car. So I wasn’t gamboling or whatever nonsense people were saying. I was...

Thanks capt obvious. For you words of wisdom

Exactly. Just sharing so others can learn. At the end of the day It’s nothing serious or tragic.

Well That’s one way of looking at it.

Yep. That’s pretty much what happened

I’m not blaming Tesla but I would holpe for more from any company. I ordered a on stock y performance. It was a 3 k discount. Scheduled to pick up. Another popped up with a 5 k discount. Obviously I want that one. Especially after the last years price drop I hit. It’s my 3 rd new Tesla not that...

i have had a model 22 3 ,Y 22 and 2018 S. With FSD. I really likes the y and sometimes miss it. But I think the y needs a dashboard and the material quality difference was noticeable. I am now looking for a 2021 s. I like the after refresh design. moving forward I’ll stick with the s.

Agreed. That’s my point

Great point. I leases a bmw i3 for 199 a month for 2 years. The price made it worth doing. The range was horrible. But I liked the car.

Just like they created the plaid edition. They could have created a different level. Or they could have associated the price reduction to a model year change. I’m just tossing ideas out there but the objective is to lower pricing in a controlled manner without destroying resale. Even if they...

Agreed. But at the same time cutting msrp is worse than incentives. I use an electric car for my business and I will say it’s my second Tesla and I have absolutely nothing bad to say about the car. I think it’s a great car. But cutting msrp really destabilizes the value of the car. Not Tesla...

Lol. Fords don’t interest me. And I didn’t get “burned “ I paid the price I was willing to pay. No gun to my head. But I also don’t agree with the pricing policy of the company. So like a thinking adult I’ll choose not to give them anymore of my money. Your trying to create some type of “angry...

I’m not even PO. Not silly. Lol. Not because the price was lowered. Because for me that makes their products and future values extremely volatile. If I buy something today that can costa 25 k less tomorrow. I prefer to go with a different brand. Most cars lose money but lowering msrp is totally...

Well For Tesla sake I hope your all Right. Personally i won’t buy another Tesla no matter what they do. I don’t own stock in the company or have any other interests. Just sharing my opinion. Nothing is fact based. Just my opinion. Either way I think it was a bad move for Tesla to do.

To a point but not if you screw your original customer that was able to pay and did pay 25-30 percent more for the product. You gain a different customer base but lose a bigger piece.

I get it but apple has basically made sure everyone knows through (mysterious leaks) what's coming and when . Nobody is ever surprised by that and also when apple wants to increase or lower price they do it with a new (version) pro max plus supreme. Elon could have just renamed it model 2.5 got...

but this wasn't a mark down it was a entirely new starting price.

Ive read many comments about this . I don't agree with most of them . I think most of us expected normal depreciation yes that comes with the purchase of any item but Elon raising and dropping prices whenever he wants is not depreciation. its a price cut and it undermines his "everyone pays the...

sold thanks

Exactly. That’s the point nobody else seems to grasp.

makws no sense to place a cutoff. Nobody buys a car and expects the msrp to ever drop. Period. In fact it’s the first time it has happened to this degree. You refer to you you you but because I got my car in November don’t think I just say. Oh well that’s fair.

Not bad points guys. If you read my post you notice that also didn’t complain about buying a few months ago when the price was higher. I’m mainly touching on the effects the largest and number 1 EV company can have on the auto finance industry and the overall market doing such a drastic drop.

there is a reason they do rebates instead of base price cuts. Let's look at it from another angle. How many financial institutions just had their a+ loan turned into an upside down loan. The major lenders that were financing Tesla .The reason they do rebates is not to directly cut 20k or more...

I understand but disagree with saying those who bought before don’t have much to complain about. Anyone that paid more than the msrp now can complain. They just ranked the resale values. Banks can complain. The just created a situation that a boatload of loans are upside down. Increasing the...

I think instead of a direct cut like that. That kills resale values of customers so drastic. They should make all colors free. Add FSD standard. Things like that. Because at least then it doesn’t tank the market fir anyone that already purchased.

My 2 cents opinion. If I were I. Charge of Tesla. I would give anyone that paid ex 10k over what it is now from Tesla. I would give you a coupon code for free FSD or free FSD light. That way I keep my customer satisfied and I also keep the value of the product higher. That’s the only way I can...

Yes

switched my light wood trim to carbon fiber. it from a 22 myp. $200 and im in NJ . meet or pick up preferred but will consider shipping at buyers expense

Just took it out of my 22 MYP and installed carbon fiber so im willing to trade the wood pieces or sell Tham to someone relatively local.

no. I was just faced with the same issue. Few things. Since you can basically get an ordered car in weeks even jumping to the back of the line won’t help. You can try to change and change configuration again but they all are being delivered in weeks. This has caused the car flippers to pull out...

I loved it. It was a lot of fun. Not as fast as people try to make it seem. It handled like a dream and I loved the hard lines but I hated the wing (almost 50 so I don’t love big spoilers ) It got to be a pain shifting gears. I do to many miles and hit too much traffic so after awhile it got...

lol. I drove fast and hollllyyyyyyy crap . this car moves it fell like a plane heading for takeoff. I like it so much more than my old model 3. mainly for comfort and the super solid feel.

thanks. yes after almost a week of it I'm more than sure I made the right choice . should have followed my instinct in the beginning but I guess at least I can say I have had the two so I know which I prefer. I would say I made a good profit but with teslas price increases I probably paid the...

Yes. Wasn’t sure because of range. Most were saying 200-miles a charge. And having to stop each day to charge would have been a major burden. So I needed enough to guarantee a round trip. I have a home charger so I charge nightly.

I wasn’t sure about Tesla or an electric car but since a drive 200 miles a day it makes financial sense. I started with a Prius (Lol) fuel efficient but that’s it. tried again with bmw i3. hoping for some fun but that didnt work out. So as the gas prices steadily increased got a Honda Civic type...

Selling my car to vroom . 2022 model 3. anyone want some TeslaShield mats including trunk. I have some splash guards I never got around to installing and the storage cubbies in the trunk with lids . if nobody wants them ill just leave them in the car. pm asap car is going tomorrow

Everyone situation is different. I’m actually switching from a 22 model 3 lr to a 22 myp. So the wait doesn’t matter to me.

That’s exactly the situation I’m in. Waiting on a myp due by end of September if I cancel and reorder I’ll still save 5500

Not sure how many cars the anyone purchased before. But I’ve purchased tons. I can give you a “Should have been better “ from almost all top brands. It all depends on the dealership and the people working how detailed they are. Not necessarily the brand itself. I have pureches 100k plus cars and...

I used a charge point charger.

Yes I did it . I will look for it.

Just completed my install through the PSEG program. Upgrades to 200 amp. Wall installl hardwired charger. Refund of $1500 for BTM the 5000 rebate is for them upgrade the transformers or whatever. So the most you’ll get is 1500. I spent 3700. So it was worth it to me

I will Let you know. Pseg pays for the install of the charger up to 1500.I was told the 5000 dollars is what they use if they need to upgrade the transformer or something. I’m in process now so I’ll let you know.
