Model 3 For Sale

[For sale]

Financing fell through. Basic black on black model 3. Pickup at Fremont factory. As always serious inquiries only to get 2018 federal tax rebate.

How can you be selling a car that is still at the delivery center for pickup? If you own it then you should have it on hand, if it's still waiting for delivery then you don't own it to sell.

dsvick is correct, you dont own it yet since you dont physically have the car. Basically it will be reassigned to someone else and hopefully you can ask Tesla nicely if you can get refunded your $2500.

I can transfer my "right to buy" to someone looking for the fed tax credit.

And what are you looking to get out of this transaction?

 

[For sale]

Out of this deal without losing any money, Tesla seems to be a stickler on refunds.

Someone who really wants to buy a black on black Tesla 3 while gaining the full $7,500 federal tax credit. (Plus $2,500 California tax credit).

If you still wanted the car, I'm pretty sure you can find financing if you put some work into it.

Good luck with sale but seems like a high friction transaction.

Good luck, I doubt you will find a “buyer” but who knows. AWD/P seem to be delivering in as little as a few days as is.

Thanks everyone for insights. I'm sure there are some people hoping their Tesla 3 can be delivered in 2018 or essentially lose $3,750 off their federal tax credit. If not then maybe they would be interested in my order. I'm just looking for a Win-Win as they say.

I'd be potentially interested - I have the same car (+EAP) on order. Can you PM (aka start a "Conversation" with) me? I can't find the UI to do so - it might be a limitation on a new member.

I posted conversation. Click on your profile and you will see it.

Yea, but the second buyer doesn't get the tax credit and the car has to be financed as used.

 

[Slumpey326]

He hasn’t taken delivery, it is not used. Plain and simple, case closed

I'm not sure you can sell your "right to buy". How do you think that that will work? Right now you have a purchase agreement with Tesla that says you'll buy that car if, for whatever reason, you back out of that agreement Tesla can reassign the car to someone else and decide to refund your deposit or not. I do not think you can reassign or transfer your MVPA either.

At best you would probably have to to arrange with a buyer to be co listed with you on the title and then you would transfer everything over to them. Either way, it sounds like a lot of hoops for someone to jump through for something that may or may not even be able to happen.
