Model 3 Leftovers For Sale

[EV-Methow]

Traded our 2019 3 for a Y (both great vehicles in our opinion). Have these items for sale. We are in North Central WA - willing to deliver within 150 miles or so. Everything in excellent condition.

18" Aero Wheel Winter Tire Package - one winter (about 3K miles) use locally - 9/32" tread left: $1500 ($2200 new incl. tax)
(NOTE: Aero hubcaps not included - they don't come with the winter tire package)

Donut spare from Bimmerzone - never used: $200 ($285 new)

Tesla All Weather Interior Mats - $70 ($145 + tax new)

Tesla All Weather Rear Cargo Mat - $60 ($130 + tax new)

Jeda Wireless Phone Charger (June 2019 model) - $40 (their new version is on sale for $80 right now)

Mats, spare tire and charger gone.
Winter tire and wheel set (4 total) still available.
We live in serious snow country and have used Michelin X-Ice tires and these Pirellis are very comparable.
Nice to have on if you travel the NW passes in winter when traction tires are required.

Are you willing to share details of your trade? What was the trade-in mileage, model (LR/SR+) and age and what did Tesla give you?
I’m thinking of doing the same.

Also would be curious about this. I’ve been tempted to request an official trade quote from Tesla but don’t really feel like them trying to sell me a new car if it’s a crazy low offer.

I recommend using their trade in calculator (tesla.com/tradein) to find out. I did that before ordering the M3 (non-Tesla trade in) and before ordering the Y and nobody tried to sell me a car - just got an email with the value. Because I waited more than 30 days before ordering (and drove another 1000+ miles) the value dropped $800. Delivery was delayed well over a month by COVID but value didn't drop again. It was a 2019 M3 so value was enough that the sales tax reduction was significant. Don't want to share other details but hope this helps.

Submitted last night and just got a call and voicemail from a Tesla rep asking for me to call him back because he “heard I was interested in a Model 3 or Y” and didn’t bother to tell me the trade value in the voicemail.... old style car sales tactics... not looking good on you Tesla...

I figure if I don’t get a trade value in an email by tomorrow I’ll resubmit again. I wish I could use a fake phone number but I think it makes me log in because it recognizes my VIN is associated with a Tesla account...

Well I got an email follow up now, that's nice. Tesla offered.... $30,900 for an SR+ with 6,909 miles (Blue/White 18" Aeros).... Carvana just offered $39,097....

Does Carvana pick up in Tri-Cities?

Nope, I would have to get it to them. That would be a pain... but for $9k more, it would be worth it

 

[acarney]

Carvana might be drunk though... I just put in the info again for another offer but with higher miles (I added 1,050 miles since the drive down there is about 700 miles via ABetterRoutePlanner; San Fran is the closest hub) and the offer that came back was almost $300 more then the other day...

It's like they WANT me to sell it and buy another Model 3....

Seriously, how serious are these offers? They claim it's a solid offer and they just look over the car and cut you a check. Well I know there isn't a single mark on the car (PPF plus very little highway miles) and the interior is spotless... Do I really get $39,300 for this car?
