Most of the inventory LRs that have been sitting for a while wouldn't qualify for the tax credit as those were built with the LG battery pack. I suspect only recently built ones were built with the panasonic batteries in anticipation of the move, so right now, those are few and far between until manufacturing of them gets ramped up.
I'm in the Cleveland area and I found the stock all seasons on my 2021 LR poor for winter driving so like most of my prior sport sedans have purchased a set of winter wheels/tires. So for me the summer tires didn't matter too much as no matter what I would have bought a winter set. The lower susepnsion however could be a negative.
I was thinking this too, but my understanding from reading through these forums is that the LG battery can handle the AB since the same motors and batteries were used on the previous gen LR, albeit maxed out. I suspect Tesla was only waiting for the M3P to be released before offering it, much like how they did it the last time.
And if anyone is still waiting they are canceling to get the Panasonic LR to get the 7500
My lady was so happy for me when I "Bought" my M3P despite her disdain for Elon and the car in general. She is smart enough to have seen me literally test drive every other competitor before coming to this conclusion and thus, she supported me 100%. She saw the value and even complimented the SA and the entire "Simple" process.
Yes
The IRS loosened a very small regulation about hard to trace graphite or something. Has nothing to do with the overall message of the tax credit
Plenty of inventory online showing not available also. Tesla has likely been making the car with the new cells for along time now and just was waiting to get the inventory out there.
It says check with dealer actually for confirmation.
“News sources” aka people who don’t know anything and just regurgitate what they read.
As long as I get the rebate. I need the car by August and had enough of the EDD games. This worked out perfectly for me.
My wife hasn't gone off on me, but I also bought her a new Range Rover Velar before embarking on all this EDD madness. I sold my own car soon after ordering since I thought the M3P was imminent due to the early June EDD when I first ordered.
Verry nice.....I thought I was liking the aeros in the wheels. But seeing you blue with the aero inserts removed......WOW! sharp even in a stinky garage lol.
Did you actually click on a vehicle and see or just searching rebate eligible cars?
I'm positive they just loosened the regulations. It only applies to the MY, M3 LR, and M3 Performance. Notably, the M3 SR is still not tax credit eligible. Probably they are still negotiating those regulations with the Biden admin.
