This is what I got from my provider.
$733.08 x 104 = $76240 for the repayments.
Plus the residual of $26172.54...

That is not worth it to me...

If you're in the top income bracket minus tax savings would be a total cost of 68,104 (WITH FBT incentive)
When you figure out the total cost of insurance and maintenance it probably is "worth it" but i dont like participating in a scheme that doesnt benefit anyone significantly apart from the companies skimming everyone.

Here is a quote I got from my employer-nominated NL company. I'm a computer programmer, I can say I'm somewhat good with numbers, but yet I have no idea what most of the figures in this quote are. My layman's calculation is as follows:

1. I would have paid $37,643 out of pocket at the end of the lease
2. I would have to pay a residual of $37,623 at the end
3. Adding (1) and (2) will be $75,266
4. Subtracting (3) from the on-the-road cost of the car ($66,498) gives $8,768
5. Subtracting insurance, rego, servicing e.t.c (~$6,000) which I would have paid out of pocket without NL from (3) above gives $2,768

(5) is what I would pay in excess of the on-the-road cost of the car with NL. This does not factor in FBT tax removal. The question big question is then, what are the other finance options available where I can pay less than $2,768 in interest on a loan of $66,498 over a period of 2 years?

Experience people in the house, does this calculation make sense? If yes what options do you think are out there that beat the $2,768 figure?

PS: I CORRECTED THE $40,538(723.9 X 56) NUMBER, IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN $37,643(723.9 X 52).

These quotes are such a sketch. I’ve had numerous back and forth emails with my agent to put the right numbers in the quote. For my case, the final price on my Tesla order agreement is $65192. I’m eligible for the $3000 ev grant which means vehicle on road cost will be $62192. I then had them reduce the GST from this amount, so total amount financed in my quote is $56590.

I’ve attached a screenshot of my quote.

Yeah and the interest rate is almost half what others have posted. That quote is actually worth.

Looks like the layout of the Tesla website has changed. I still have the Dec to Jan window but it now says "Prepare for delivery".
It also has a "Payment method" line item but when I click on it, it vanishes. The Tesla website is so bad.

US store, not AU

That's interesting. Mine hasn't changed (still says Next Steps) but I have the Dec to Jan dates.

Have you selected a payment method as that sometimes can hold things up

I haven't been paying attention but both of mine (second hand purchase from Tesla, and the original order I haven't had cancelled yet) have looked that way since at least Friday

I did many months ago. I actually need to change it, but I cant, if I click it, it vanishes.

$733.08 x 104 = $76240 for the repayments.

It's the "effect on take-home pay" number you need to use: $649.07 × 104 = $67,503.28.

(The $733.08 number includes a pre-tax component).

I think NSW has worded their rebate such that it is not payable on Novated Lease vehicles. Is that different in VIC?

Will be interesting to see if others have that change.

Kind of understandable, as you get to rebate the GST for the part you put into novated lease. us in QLD get no rebate for Teslas as they priced it under the Tesla starting price.

some of the used inventory a few weeks back was tempting (in the end the Ryzen vs Atom speeds did it for me) but they've all been snapped up now.
