They really need to do an update to the S soon... at least on the interior... to make the extra money more worth it. I also think that once the federal tax credit goes away the Model S will be able to be $10,000 cheaper due to economies of scale with the 2170s once they use them in the Model S and X.
Tesla will probably sell a lot of model S in the U.S. when the tax credit is due to expire. I expect part of Musk reasoning for producing a lot of P100D for service centers is because of falling demand followed by a surge next year. He knows he can unload the cars, so the factory may as well not slow down. They will likely build a lot of inventory cars for the rush.
AP2 was suppose to be the demand driver for S/X leading into the model 3. Musk chose to ignore reality and went ahead with selling FSD. Jim Cramer was right this week in saying that shorts need to fear Musk's wizard skills.
