Going to meet up with a guy I met on a private auto seller website that lives relatively close to me. RWD, White, Sport Wheels, Premium Upgrade, EAP ($57,500 new from tesla.com). He posted the ad for $54,000 and after a few day of back and forth emailing, said $51,000 is the lowest he’ll go.
Buying new: $7,500 down (assuming I would get the car before tax credits run out), 3.49% APR I would pay $824/month with taxes (6 year loan - please do not comment on the length of my loan).
Buying (some)what new: $0 down, 3.49% apr, $833/month.
Should I show him my calculations and request a deduction in sales price? Seems like I may be missing something here, I don’t think he’s taking into account any depreciation, only removing his tax credit and sales tax. He also paid cash for the vehicle.
