I do want it and that's why I made the order even now with the high prices. It is just the bitter feeling that I missed my opportunity on a great deal is what is keeping me up at night so I was just trying to find a way to ease that feeling a bit.
Not to pile on, but everyone feels that way when they "miss out". There is some reason you didnt order a year ago when prices were cheaper. If you had the capacity to order but just "didnt, for some reason", then thats on you for procrastinating for some reason.
Again, I am not piling on, just stating fact, that its costing you more because you chose to wait for some reason. If that reason was something you could do nothing about, then you couldnt do anything about it.
People trying to buy houses over the past year and half or so have to spend tens of thousands (in some cases hundreds of thousands) more than they would have had to before. I bought my home in 2013, and with the value of my home right now, there is absolutely NO WAY I could afford to buy the home I live in right now.
This is one of those "this is how life works" type things.
If you continue to wait, you will likely price yourself out (if you havent already) because interest rates have been at historic lows so long that an entire generation of people think that a car loans (and home loans) are "supposed to be less than 3%". Once prices on a item rise, its usually not "fast" for them to come back down.
Car prices may come down "some" in the next couple of years as demand softens a bit, but Car manufacturers have gotten to the point where they have gotten "rid of" all the super affordable cars, and gotten people used to a new car costing 30K+ for even "regular" new cars. The prices of the cars might come down, but interest rates historically run around 5%, so the effective cost to people is going to be the same for a looooongggg time, at least in my opinion.
TL ; DR - The price is higher now, but at least its higher for everyone when you buy a tesla, and its not just "dealer markup". If you want the car, you should buy now, because its unlikely to be cheaper than it is now for a long time. Even if prices drop, interest rates are likely to go up, making your effective cost the same or even more than now.
