    I recently went to Tesla, to trade in my 2016 Model S 90d with the following options:

    Model S 90D $88,000.00
    All wheel drive Included
    Midnight Silver $1,000.00
    All glass roof $1,500.00
    Grey Leather Seats $2,500.00
    Autopilot $2,500.00
    Premium Package $3,000.00
    Ultra fidelity sound $2,500.00
    Rear facing seats $3,000.00
    $104,000.00 ​

    Car is in excellent condition, with 62k miles, and has lifetime unlimited charging.

    Who wants to guess what Tesla offered me to trade-in for a new 2019 Long range Model S?

    Well I know my trade in value on a domestic non-tesla was about half what its book value was and a 1/3 less then other dealerships offered as trade in...hoping since authentic tesla used are pretty valuable they gave you better!

    Don’t forget to subtract the $7.5k from the purchase price.

    @evalst2018 I would say around $35K tops. If its higher than that the question to ask is how does Tesla even make any revenue reselling used vehicles?

    then probably another 2.5k from CA.

    I’d guess $32,500

    Even I am amazed by that number. I would've guessed a little over 40.

    Maybe because of the high-ish mileage? Maybe they're just crazy?

    Is it a facelift? Maybe you could sell it privately for around 50

    Crazy. You can't even buy the cheapest one on their website (SR+ Model 3) with that offer. But I am not surprised. Seems about average.

    The real problem is you can get a new Long Range Mode S with similar configuration, close to 100 more miles of range, and FSD hardware for $83k.
