Bob, the impact of prices outside the US is even more savage, you are lucky you only lost a combined $25K.I'm estimating the current value of our 2017 S 100D and 2018 X 100D combined lost around $25K this week - about 2/3 of what it would cost to buy a new $35K Model 3!
A new Model X P100D has dropped $85,000 AUD, that is about $60,000 USD, about what you might expect to lose over 4 years of ownership, not 1 month in some cases. Several factors come in to play with that final price reduction figure being so high outside the USA but that is where it ends up, not much different over in Europe and that is why in one foul swoop Tesla has guaranteed outside of the USA they have just lost many, many customers for life over this very dodgy price massacre.
And to offer discounted FSD might be a nice thought, but essentially they are still asking you to buy something that may never work! Which when some are paying off loans now worth more than what a brand new car would cost isn't fair, not one bit fair but I'm betting nobody at Tesla thought about international market impact.
