Model 3 Options Pricing

Just about every premium euro car company only offers non metallic paint as a no cost option. All other types of paint are a paid option.

Bwahaha. Stick to what i actually said. WHITE PAINT AT NO COST!

I'm also wondering if anyone has any experience purchasing the Full Self-Driving Capability after launch, say on the Model S? I'm putting pricing together, and thinking I will be going with the base model, with Premium package, Autopilot, and Color Choice. It puts me right around $39500 after the $7500 and a $5000 down payment. Puts my monthly payment at around $691. I wanted to keep that around where my current BMW payment is at $669. I can manage that. But as soon as I add on the long range I'm looking at $831 a month, and then more with Full Self-Driving Capability. Anyone add it later?

I would be very surprised if anybody paid to add it later yet, since it gives you absolutely nothing above EAP at the moment. People order it on delivery to save money later, but if you don't do that there is zero reason get the add-on at this point.
 
Yes, I have an alpine white with tan leather interior BMW non-metalic and it is great!

Tesla is making a logical mistake in how they are pricing the options.

Tesla fails if they sell the same number of cars as BMW sells 3 series. They seemed to have just mapped the price schedule from BMW over to the Model 3. The number of people with the money to support that sales strategy is not enough for Tesla to be successful in their stated goal. Even with BMW the first two colors are included. After that all colors are $700.

I don't understand why Elon is inviting competition the same way Ford did.

If you don't understand why Elon is inviting competition, then you have never read anything about what his goals for Tesla are.

And that's bullshit.

I personally think Electrek is just using current paint/price options in their article and don't actually *know* that it will only be black. I would have expected Tesla to offer base white as a free paint option now that the 3 is being produced. NOBODY only offers black as a "free" paint option.

Website confirms black is only free free color
 
So, if you want a D model you'll only get 1/2 or 1/4 incentive. Bummer.
All I wanted was a D with largest battery pack for my wife.
AND you have to wait a whole another yr for it when you waited in line???? Jeez.
Also what is the thing you got for waiting in line???? No mention at all about that.
Glad I didn't stay up to watch that last night.

What did you get? A hearty thanks from Elon for the interest free loan you have given him. So very nice of you!

You already gave Tesla one interest free loan, so no need to give them a second. The odds of FSD being approved for use in the next 5 yrs. is slim. There is also no proof the installed will actually support Level 5. Save the $3,000 and use it for vacations.

The long range battery version is heavier than the standard range version. It looks like there is a difference in the battery packs. Does this mean that there will be no software battery upgrade option after purchase?

When I go to the page where I can see my delivery date it offers the option of the regular or long range versions, at that point I'm supposed to click on one. Is this an irrevocable choice? I'd like to go through all the options for each before I masked a choice (I have different ownership models to consider).

Lucky You! I just checked my page and I dont have those options :-( Now hopefully you aren't talking about going to My Tesla > Manage > Delivery Estimator because we all have that option and it says on the page optionally you can choose the option you might get but this won't affect your place in line even though it shows different dates.

I can imagine that choosing your battery, color, premium etc will have a "Finish" or "Purchase" button at the end before it is final, not on just one click. Just my assumption from all other online purchasing experiences.
 
I was not expecting the Longer Range battery to be 9K! If it had been 5K sure I'd get it but not for 9. Model 3 w/ Paint, Premium Upgrade, Delivery & Tax is already 45,600 before the tax rebate.

2 Questions:

Delivery is $1200 correct?

Any word on SiriusXM capabilities?
 
On the paints (where I've dropped a few disagrees for factual errors):

BMW 320i offers black or white for free. Audi A4 offers black or white for free. Mercedes C-class offers black or white for free.

White is the most popular car color in the world. Tesla is asking $1000 for white (which is more than Mercedes, Audi, and BMW for their metallics)--is Tesla paint honestly better than Mercedes paint, Audi paint, and BMW paint?

My take: Tesla investors were promised that 20% margin, so customers please cough up, :p
