I'm picking mine up on Friday in Tampa, have zero concerns about waiting for a 2022 or tax credit. Tesla, and Congress can alter its policies or bills at any time. My order was placed on 7/16. Word on the street at that time was certainty that an EV bill would pass retroactive to 1/1/2021. That didn't happen.Same exact dilemma. Set to pickup this Saturday after receiving a 2021 VIN on 10/31. Tough call!
Also have to take trade in and financing rates into consideration. If it’s the same car, which it likely is. I’d be paying more for just the model year numberDefinitely I’d reject because performance trim has short wait times due it being more profitable I guess is their objective. Most buyers might be more inclined to pay more for 2022 than 2021 when it comes time to sell as well. But, no one really knows, all speculation at this point.
Toronto, ordered myp white with tow oct 1 and got vin yesterday as 2021 and delivery date Nov 16. Maybe I should reject this, still deciding
Your spec looks the same as mine, except I got a MYLR. If Tesla wants to give me your MYP for the same price, I’ll overlook the tax credit and 2021 VIN!They released my VIN twice yesterday and the system reassigned it to me both times so now I get to go on hold for a week until someone else snags it.
my SA confirmed today zero change to 2022 other than the number in registration.Also Toronto. I ordered a MYP a couple weeks before you and still no VIN for me. EDD Nov 9 - Dec 9. Guess it's the colour. Mine is blue on white. I would definitely reject for a 2022. I 100% knew I wanted a 2022 when I ordered.
My VIN for a 2021 was released on Monday, was supposed to take delivery this week. Today, my EDD has been updated to Dec 7-Dec 31 so it looks like my car was already snagged by someone else and I’ll get a 2022. When I placed my order in August, my original EDD was January and my SA told me I would be getting a 2022 so I’ve expected a 2022 from Day 1. Tesla better not have a problem with this!They released my VIN twice yesterday and the system reassigned it to me both times so now I get to go on hold for a week until someone else snags it.
g in within the next 3-5 years, then perhaps there is more sense in a 2022 model as it’ll likely be worth more. I’m planning on keeping it til it dies on me however long that’ll be so I picked up yesterday and honestly, I’ll forget all about the years in due time. Ask me what year my Mazda is and I wouldn’t be able to tell you
yep, that's my thought to. Been driving my current to be traded in car for 12 years. SA also confirmed the current 2022 have zero feature difference as well other than the registration year number.
That argument is invalid for a today buyer of 2021 vs 2022 though. Regardless of which model year you buy it will be in identical condition and mileage when you go sell. It's the same price for me today and is guaranteed worth more money when I go to sell than if it were 1 model year older, even if that's only separated by 1 manufacturing day.Correct... and in 3-5 years maybe a 2022 will be worth more than a 2021, maybe it won't be. Mileage might become a larger factor with EV's as they age, in other words a lower-mileage 2021 might be worth more than a higher mileage 2022.

keep in mind if you are financing, October rate for 96 months is 2.85%, November is 3.15% already and looks like it's trending upwards.
I’d wait for 2022 as well if I was only planning on keeping it for 3-4 years.Yeah, I know there's no change, but I plan on switching out the car in 3-4yrs probably. I'd rather have something that looks 1yr newer on paper even if there's no difference. And not like I'm making any sacrifices to do it. Rate doesn't matter to me so I'm good there

I lost $400 on trade in this month plus the rate increase of 0.25% which is $500~ for 96 months. If I taken delivery in October, the cost of my vehicle would have been $900 cheaper. Multiple this by a couple months and it could add up. I’m coming from an ice vehicle which cost more operate as well
I don't think anyone is arguing it if you hold cars that long. I get too bored after a few years so I find something new. Money smart? Absolutely not. But it's what I like and I've justified the expenses to myself. Carmax told me my 2021 was worth $4-5k more to them than an identical 2020 when I sold it to them a few weeks ago, maybe an edge case being 11mo old but it's my personal experience. I also don't have a trade in the mix.I got $2400 for trade in for my 2007 bmw 335i. If it was a 2008, maybe they would have given me $2450? Who knows. But delaying it could have financial penalty (at least in Canada, it’s been going up) also could be a reduction to trade in as well if you have to renew another month.
For these reasons I decided to take the 2021 on Nov 16, I lost another $400 already last week when I renewed my trade in for October.
If it holds up, likely planning on keeping this for 14 years+ like the 335 and don’t see much point in delaying it further and making my cost go up further for a vehicle with no new features
I’d hold myself for 2022 if paying cash up front and no trade in as well. Might as well collect more interest and get a newer model. My scenario is more for the ones with financing + tradeI don't think anyone is arguing it if you hold cars that long. I get too bored after a few years so I find something new. Money smart?
