My wife and I both work in healthcare. We are kind of holding on to this being a nice distraction from all things Covid-19. A nice drive in a fun car is something to look forward to, whenever it finally happens.

HAHA! You are right, but I was born with this last name lol
You should sue every news and government outlet for using your name without paying a licensing fee.
looks like i'm going to be taking a pass on the car for now .. although i can still afford it .. just doesn't make sense to splurge on a luxury purchase when portfolio is down roughly 10% since the high point.
i'll be back to buy when market recovers.
I wish, but corona is a general word. I would a be lucky man right now !
Goodluck man! I would personally sell and once this public scare is over with, buy when its low and eventually it will go back to normal.

Its pretty much close to impossible to implement that sort of approach .. if you can time the market and do it successfully multiple times -- then you will be a billionare and should be in finance.
.. the markets will bottom out, and eventually will recover all their losses .. and we'll forge ahead .. could take months, could take years .. who knows.
-- i've gotten this far by never panicking, always being frugal when the *sugar* hits the fan, and never digging into savings for fanciful luxury items. so i have to remember those rules and stick by them ...
-- i will miss not having my own P3D now .. but i do have an AWD Model 3 LR .. i think i could just get the speed update as a consolation prize.
Happy MX owner here. My plan was to buy a Model 3 this June while holding on to the X. We are also in the process of buying a house. On Monday, I ordered Tesla Solar Panels and some Powerwalls for the new house. Between the house downpayment, the new Model 3, and the Panels and PWs, we were looking at a large outlay and were ready.
Today, I got a call from Tesla Solar and they said they needed my utility bill for the new home which I do not have yet. They would not take a bill that wasn't in my name. I gave them neighborhood averages, but I guess the utility won't take that when considering the system size they will allow to be built. Even though I was practically begging to get the planning and install going, Tesla cancelled my Solar and PW order until I can get some utility bill history to them. Although it is unfortunate, I guess it is driven by the utility.
Now, all that is left is the Model 3 purchase. Checking the site over the last week, the delivery time estimate has climbed from 2-3 weeks up to 8-12 weeks. Not sure what the reason for their suddenly longer estimates. Because of all of the uncertainty, I am just sitting on my cash not sure when to order or what to do.
The upside is, I have $100K+ ready to throw at the wild market instead of into the M3, PW, and Solar.
I paid cash. I don't regret it. But the smarter move would have to wait a few months for this (impending) recession to impact residential RE and add a discounted property to the portfolio.
That's the better way to leverage the 60k.
But that's all in hindsight. I'm still jumping on the housing sales regardless.
