General chit-chat in "For Sale" threads

[UCF3]

He did what I did when I bought my 100D from Tesla and resold it 4 months later: I covered the price, the upgrades, taxes and registration in my sales price. I'm not running a charity. As far as "a reasonable delivery time" seems like March 2023 is a long time to wait.

March 2023? You can get a Performance Y delivered in 2 months. February 2022 according to Tesla’s order page. So let’s do the math, $65,990 is what his car is worth according to Tesla brand new. The tax credit would knock this down to $57,990. So he wants someone to pay $14,000 extra for a used Y that he’s been driving around in?

If you paid $72K for a MYP with no FSD and no tow package, you got seriously ripped off.

This right here. Not to mention I would have to pay state taxes at registration. Double taxation anyone?

Fair points. The tax is what makes it tough. I could see someone paying "retail" for a slightly used MYP now, but with the looming tax credit, I bet some people are waiting. Should be interesting because IF it passes, everyone will flood the system and it will be Aug before you could get a MYP. Then people won't want to wait, then people will pay. It's a viscous cycle. Ha

If you order from Tesla this car is also $50,990 with the tax credit. Someone’s going to pay $17,000 to buy it from you?

Which you can't get til November 2022. I have already been offered $65k. 2021's have regularly been selling for 64-67k. If you buy from inventory they force you to pay $10,000 for FSD.

It’s crazy, but he’ll probably get it. Just the way the market is. I turned $6k profit on 3P that I had driven for two years.

 

[nutterbutter]

$65k is about the going rate that dealers will pay for a bare-bone 2021 Model Y. The technique is finding inventory Ys from Tesla at that selling price. I've been seeing 3 to 5 pop in on a daily basis. Must be year-end unload.

Haha someone offered you $65k when they could have a Performance Y delivered by Tesla in 50 days for $64k?

And with the tax credit this becomes $56k

Then buy one.

 

[nutterbutter]

For year-end, we'll see Tesla dump a bunch of demo/inventory Ys at current selling price. Plus, selling used after BBB passes will, I think, affect pricing on used Teslas.

Daylight robbery, for those who don't mind getting robbed

 

[UCF3]

Yeah wait for 10 months, spend 65k and then say useless on it

take over a lease on a Y until yours is ready for delivery. Pretty easy to do.

So people can post Tesla orders/cars for sale at ridiculous valuations and no one is allowed to point out how ridiculous those asking prices are? People are getting scammed and no one seems to care?

Don’t dig it anymore than you do but you gotta let the market decide what is fair and if someone wants to pay some opportunist a markup rather than Tesla then that’s their prerogative..

Buyers aren't as foolish as you think they are. Nobody is saving anyone from getting ripped off in the TMC Marketplace.

In regards to transferring orders, Sales Advisors have admitted that people have been scammed out of their money on numerous occasions. Odds are it’s happening here

And you think the moderation and admin staff aren’t contacted when it does? Because we haven’t been apprised of it.

I've heard FSD can be removed on those cars one step further. Can also make changes like add tow hitches, etc.

It's then just a lightly used demo car with a few hundred miles for MSRP.

 

[voxel]

There are demo MYLR on the inventory page for $58K ($63 OTD in Florida).

 

[juggesh]

This will not work. They have stopped making those models and they will ask you to update the design, taking the price to 49k!
