I've owned a Model 3 LR AWD since OCT2019, where I was then a 'new' Tesla nerd that spent a lot of time reading and learning about their Company, Cars, and Tech. I got a few of my friends to buy Teslas and others hoping to get a Tesla as their next car because my spouse and I were always raving about it. At that time, I didn't care for a MX, MS or MY because I felt like my M3 had all I needed.
But at the start of this year, my interest piqued at the thought of getting an EV SUV. I compared other offerings from competitors and concluded Tesla was still the only way to go, given range, performance, and features. So I researched Used Model Xs and New Model Ys, but found the existing inventory was dried up. I kept shopping for over a couple months and still didn't buy at the end of the 1Q, when all remaining inventory was snatched up leaving almost nothing left (that matched my options) - I couldn't believe it.
This past week I started regretting not getting a used MX or new MY before the end of the quarter. I would have to custom order or wait til the refresh starts delivering, which I'm not that interested in: I just want a EV SUV that seats more than 5 comfortably for road trips with kids. The refresh would also put me outside of the budget of under $100k.
I went back to my normal life this week forgetting about Tesla shopping when I answered a Tesla Sales Call followup today. I explained the options I was looking for and was expecting to be told to wait for the refresh. To my excitement, I ended the call with an Order for an existing Inventory Demo MX with a price adjustment that fit my budget and needs perfectly. 2020 Model X Performance for $85,200. It has 5,000 miles and 6 seats. I didn't know these situations existed but I feel like a 'new" Tesla nerd all over again. I can't wait for the delivery and to take our first road-trip!
I'm new to the Model X and am watching videos and reading about all its technicalities and features. I'm also new to the forums and this is my first post ever on a Tesla community. Looking forward to reporting back through delivery and ownership phases.
