    Is now REALLY a good time to buy a new Tesla? [Jan 2023 / April 2023]

    Why trade up from a 2021 MY? Curious why I see so many Tesla owners trading in a Tesla for another one.

    Is now REALLY a good time to buy a new Tesla? [Jan 2023 / April 2023]

    I'm on the fence right now... have an order for NJ and they may have screwed by not applying for the state $2000 credit back in January.. so NJ out of money as of April 18 but those who ordered in the 2 weeks before that can have paperwork submitted by Tesla and will get the credit... tesla...

    Ordered, purchased or Leased ... implies Ordered OR Purchased or leased before April 17th should qualify - IMO; if it said Ordered AND Purchased or Leased that would be different. Anybody inquire if dealer filling in NJ charge up forms for vehicles currently being delivered??? I couldn't get...

    May end up screwing around with leasing... ridiculous - if dealers get the credit so they can pass it on thru leasing, then they'll gouge most of it thru higher prices or worse lease terms! Maybe not Tesla - but definitely ford, toyota, etc......... Also - why the F.. should Hertz etc get the...

    2023 Model Y Custom Order Wait Time

    Maybe Georgia is different.. but if you bought it for 50K the sales tax is on 50K; the private party who bought for 10K also pays sales tax on 10K. That's how it works in NJ (although here they'd give you 5k cash and ask you to say sold for 5k cashiers check - LOL)

    Carmax is a ripoff. Any offers you're getting instantly are lowball. Get a loan to bridge you over and then take your time selling on Cargurus. Use KBB value for private sale and knock a little off so between trade in value and private sale value. All offers close to trade in are dealer low ball...

    2023 Model Y Custom Order Wait Time

    https://chargeup.njcleanenergy.com/ The vehicle must be ordered, purchased or leased after 07/25/22, the launch of the point-of-sale program; When I ordered, Tesla automatically deducted the $2,000 (MSRP EV < $55K); it's $4,000 off if MSRP < $45K - that's great deal on the M3 RWD

    2023 Model Y Custom Order Wait Time

    Also - with Rav4 Prime I'd need to charge every night to get the free battery on 40 miles... with Tesla I won't - I avg 30-40m miles a day consistently so 110V / 20A gets me plenty a few nights a week No comparison for me mostly due to gouging and incentives, more than the direct comparison

    2023 Model Y Custom Order Wait Time

    Maybe... BUT in NJ where I am - example Rav4 Prime: MSRP $48K, Dealer adjustment (aka Gouge amt) $5K = 53K; add 7% sales tax $3.5K, ignore delivery & reg fees as same as Tesla = $56.5K for the model I'd compare to Model Y.... WHEREAS: Model Y $53.5K, less 7.5K Credit (if get) = $46K, less $2K NJ...

    2023 Model Y Custom Order Wait Time

    Same here - ordered 01/24 and nothing about a VIN; still the default Feb/Mar. I will cancel if it takes too long and miss 1/2 the credit. No rush to buy as the car market is falling this year. Price will stay below 55K so they get the partial credit and some state credits so no rush.
