$2K if the car is less than $55K. It will be adjusted in your final price.
I would upload insurance info whether you’re buying from Tesla insurance or not. (I’m buying Tesla insurance and it is fairly simple and quick. The rate is not bad at all). You can pay by cashier check or set up Plaid account. You can go all the way and click “Submit” button if you decide to do so. As long as you dont click “Pay” the money still stay in your bank account. Im doing that today. After car inspection and go thru the paperwork I will click “Pay”. I wont do that unless I accept the delivery.

I actually returned my wall charger in anticipation that the MY would get reduced. Once I am closer to getting the car, I'll try and rebuy the charger.
Good news! Tesla called me yesterday mid-afternoon to indicate that our vehicle had arrived at the DC a day early - so we raced down yesterday afternoon and took delivery of our new MY LR MSM. Only found two minor issues during inspection (used the github checklist) - took about 60 minutes to do the full inspection checklist. Highly recommend using this checklist as we were able to identify the two issues using the github checklist. No pics because we were in a rush since the DC starts closing down at 6:00 PM and that's basically when we arrived, and it was getting dark so time was of the essence. Ride home was about 70 miles one way - so had plenty of opportunity to test out various features. On the registrant item - turns out I could have taken delivery myself - since Delaware is a self-registration state - my wife wasn't required. Either way - we are now proud owners of a Tesla!
Tesla Wall Connector install electrician deposit put down today with an install date of next Wednesday - so will be leveraging the SC network in the interim.
With Q1 ending today, let us hope Tesla releases cars for all pending Jan(after price drop) orders in early April.
As someone else mentioned:
IIRC (please correct me if I'm wrong), it's $2k rebate for EVs in the range $45k-$55k and then there's a $4k rebate for EVs at a lesser amount (is it under $45k?).
Assuming this is right, M3 SR would be a steal in NJ cause no sales tax + $4k state rebate + $7.5k federal rebate. However M3 SR is RWD which isn't great for NJ considering it rains/snows a lot (I feel like in the past it didn't rain this much lol).
On WFT, I saw there was 1 M3 SR RWD priced at $40k so in theory, could get it at $40.5k - $4k - $7.5k + no sales tax = $29k total (excluding Tesla's fees).
So happy to say it sounds like an easy fix for my issue of loosing the Lic plate screws and the Temp Lic. Texted the SC and they said no problem you can come by today even though they are going to be slammed. I said I live 3 hours away so they said no problem we can mail you the items.
That's correct. M3 discount would be $4K if car is less than $45K and MY discount would be $2K if car is less than $55K. I am too tall to fit into M3
, hence exploring MY.Congrats! Still waiting in Raleigh OD 1/19 W/W 19" 5 seat. Guess we will see how much longer this takes. Hope is given with your delivery.
For the second time that I've noticed, my exact build has shown up in inventory. This one was built March 28th, but I'd probably have to find a way to get to San Antonio and drive over 300 miles home.
Just chatted with Tesla - there are actually two matching vehicles at this moment (San Antonio and Austin) that I could have at my original price if I wanted to go get one (Austin is a little closer to me).
I spoke with a different (and more helpful) advisor than the one I normally deal with. This one shared that Texas-built vehicles purchased by Texas residents no longer have to physically leave Texas then return - an Austin build would "make a beeline" to the delivery location.
He opined that the reason I haven't been assigned a VIN yet even though my build exists in inventory is because there haven't been enough of my particular build going near Tyler, Texas. He said Tesla is focusing on deliveries closest to factories at the end of the quarter and that deliveries would begin occurring in more distant locations after the quarter ends.
I've decided to wait since there's really no hurry - unless the full tax credit ends on April 18.

Remember that the Fed rebate is not refundable. You take the money off the top of your tax bill. If you were to get a rebate it tacks on to it. If you owed it will reduce what you owe but you may not get $7500 in your pocket.
Wow, those savings are incredible! Nothing like that offered here in AZ. But, I'm still loving my MY P.
However, I decided to forgo PFP and apply the ceramic coating myself since I spent $4k to upgrade from the MY LR.

Same, my EDD was updated to Apr 4-18th recently as well. We're getting close, maybe we'll be on the same truck!
For those still waiting, hold strong, I have faith it will be worth it in the end. We'll today is my day finally. I have bank check and inspection checklist in hand. I have been impressed / relieved with all the recent reports of the good build quality even during times of, no doubt, high stress on the factory floor for getting the Q1 cars out the door. Crossing my fingers for good fortune on my end as well. And as an aside, in 1967 I saw a bank check that I thought, at the time, was an ungodly amount of money, as my father paid $3300 for his 1967 Chevy Impala. Coincidently, at the age of 67, my bank check today, reads $60,000. Am I crazy? ahhhh... Just showing my age I guess!
Good Luck to all others on this forum still waiting. My best wishes go out to you. You all have been a guiding light during this somewhat stressful but exciting journey. Much Respect.

Yes, it is non-refundable credit, However, you will get a refund of $7500 if you paid/owed $7500 or more. You will get the refund in 2024 while filing the 2023 taxes. If you have lower tax liability, let's say you owed and paid $5000, you will get ONLY 5000 back.
Some interpret the non-refundable differently. They think they won't get their money back if IRS withheld the money during the year
Here is another way of thinking about that.Yes, it is non-refundable credit, However, you will get a refund of $7500 if you paid/owed $7500 or more. You will get the refund in 2024 while filing the 2023 taxes. If you have lower tax liability, let's say you owed and paid $5000, you will get ONLY 5000 back.

If your fed tax bill comes out to $10000 and you only had $5000 taken out of your paycheck you owe $5000. If you buy the MY and get the $7500 credit it comes off of the total fed tax liability.
So the math is $10000 fed tax bill - $7500 credit (this is how the nonrefundable comes into play) = $2500 fed tax bill. $5000 taken out of your paycheck - $2500 you really owed would give you a $2500 tax refund.
