    Going crazy about Performance brakes? [Tesla using caliper covers on rear brakes of Y performance after supplier switch]

    Imagine Tesla testing... marketing and selling FSD when it's not fully baked, removal of uss but still advertising non working EA features. Tesla will cut corners if they think they can get a way with it.

    The only thing keeping me from upgrading to a newer Tesla is that we can't transfer FSD, anyone else?

    I'm a recent Tesla owner, from what happened in the last 2 two months with the pricing strategy that they had I'm seeing that they don't care about brand loyalty. Once they have your money they don't care about you. You can forget about them throwing current Tesla owners any bones.

    Discussion: Model 3 and Y price drop Jan 2023 / April 2023 / Oct 2023 and All other Pricing Speculation going forward

    https://www.carscoops.com/2023/01/tesla-hides-downgraded-2023-model-y-performance-brakes-behind-fancy-red-caliper-covers/amp/ Maybe the 2023 Teslas are lesser cars after all. I wonders what other changes are they're doing to reduce cost.

    Discussion: Model 3 and Y price drop Jan 2023 / April 2023 / Oct 2023 and All other Pricing Speculation going forward

    36k after tax credit for M3 is great for the consumers, it'll force other manufacturers to competes. It just stings so much for us recent buyers, maybe in a few weeks it'll stings less, getting my car ppf wrapped, maybe I'll just have them leave the emblems off lol

    Will you go to the Telsa store tomorrow after the price drop

    I hope people do, if it gets Tesla to provide some sort of rebate then it would help everyone who bought recently.

    Pricing strategy for 2023?

    I was wrong also, I said there will be a price cut of some sort, maybe a lesser model...I did not anticipated this steep of a cut in.

    Will you go to the Telsa store tomorrow after the price drop

    It's best just to never buy another Tesla. Plenty of other EV on the market now.

    I'm shocked that the reduction is this massive, Shafting recent buyers. I don't think I will buy another Tesla. By the time I need another car there will be plenty of options to choose from.

    This really stinks for anyone who purchased in the last month or so.

    Pricing strategy for 2023?

    Dec 2023 should be another interesting month, the IRA has a provision that in 2024 the credit will be at the 'Point of Sale', I would imagine that those who are about to take delivery in Dec might want to push that to Jan to get the credit upfront vs waiting for tax season.

    Pricing strategy for 2023?

    I feel like we're just going in circles, Let's just state facts, Tesla has been able to increase priced because of demands, when demands went away, aka December, they discounted to sell. December demands was affected by the rebate. Come January, inventory is high again, I'm see 30+ in my...

    Pricing strategy for 2023?

    What I'm seeing is high inventory right now, in my local area, as high as December before the discount, keep this up and it'll be more discount in 2 months. At the end of the day you do agree that if the consumers chose not to buy then the price go down. Therefore the consumers do have a say in...

    Pricing strategy for 2023?

    My recommendation to you is to wait till the end of the quarter to take delivery if you can.

    you did see what happened in December right? I mean i dont know what else to tell you.

    Pricing strategy for 2023?

    I wouldn't say we, the consumers, can't make their pricing decision, we absolutely can. If we don't buy their cars, inventory go up, discount will be happening (look what happened in December). This happens all the time at regular car dealership, when they have a lot of cars, they're more...

    Satin ppf and cleaning

    I have a MMS model y and planning on getting it full ppf wrapped. I heard that the clear/gloss one is easy to clean, but I'm thinking to get the satin. And wondering if there are any concerns when it comes to cleaning it. Any regrets getting satin over gloss?

    IRS definitions of what's a car vs SUV by manufacturer for $55k vs $80k price limit

    If I were still in the market for another Tesla, knowing how December went, I would wait till end of March to take delivery, if enough people do that they'll be force to hand out discount on top of the tax credit.

    IRS definitions of what's a car vs SUV by manufacturer for $55k vs $80k price limit

    I think think the 55k limit will help us the consumer, it will force the car manufacturers to have a lower price option. Those who waited will probably make out well, will just have to wait a few months for manufacturers to figure out the new option.

    Chances of taking delivery this year?

    According to the just released irs rules the 5 seaters MY price must be under 55k to qualified for the tax credit. 7 seaters is 80k.

    Chances of taking delivery this year?

    From reading on the internet it seems like used Tesla price is dropping a lot, if you're buying used then maybe shop around a bit more, no need to hurry.

    A few last minute questions

    I'm also in the VA/DC area, just picked up my MY last week, so far commuting about 25 miles on route 28(60-65mph) and the toll road(70-75mph) take about 10% of the battery, round trip of 50 mile is about 20%. Temperature has been in the 30s. I would think in winter for your trip to NJ you will...

    A few last minute questions

    The advertised 330 miles range is very generous under ideal conditions. If your commute is 200+ miles a day then don't get an EV.

    Matrix Headlights on LR Y?

    None at all, just guessing since there's no evidence that these updates improved anything

    Matrix Headlights on LR Y?

    I'm new here and from what I can tell Tesla has been doing a lot of cost cutting changes, I'm not sure that these new "upgraded" camera or headlight is better, maybe it's just cheaper, help the company's bottom line.

    Received $3750 rebate a few days ago and now it's $7500. Any recourse?

    Yes take more of their money for those of us who missed out on the 2nd discount:)

    7 seat waiting room

    I have Geico and when adding a new car to the policy it has an option to set the date that the car will be in your possession. But what Tesla is asking is not insurance for the new car, but proof that you have car insurance, so all u need is a picture of your insurance card and upload that.

    My delivery date is set for 12/18 but I wanted to see/inspect the car before hand as not to feel rushed. The 510 number say that the car is already at the pick up location however I won't be able to inspect it till delivery date. Is this true? I have read that other on this forum were able to...
