Just noticed a bunch of 2023 MYRWD available in inventory in Phoenix area. It’s clearly noted on details page that they are not eligible for tax credit. But price is dipping below $40k!

New 2023 Model Y RWD back in inventory (not eligible for tax credit - 01.08.3034)
- Thread starter Schradey
- Start date
I wonder why they're not dropping further. Those eligible for POS credit are better off with LR.

We dont know, but Occams razor says (paraphrased) "the simplest answer is often the correct one". In that vein, the simplest answer is that these are cars have batteries that dont qualify because of where they are made. The next simplest answer is, perhaps these cant be sold as new because they are put in service already.
One of those things is likely true. Im dont have an opinion on pricing or why its not lower. Since You have been following pricing on these cars super close for at least a couple of years now discussing a possible model Y purchase, whats your opinion on this?
I can buy an AWD model for $44K and still get the tax credit so this doesn’t seem like a very good deal.
True but I’m not sure how many people who exceed the income cap want the cheapest version you can buy.This is a good deal for those whose incomes don't don't meet eligibility requirements. $300k family income is almost poverty level in Silicon Valley
Its for their kid...teach them that they have to earn the good cars and they get the cheap ones for now
This is TSLA pricing; it does not have to make sense—more of a whim/faith/random thing.
I was considering a RWD last year, but no more due to the tax credit. Good thing since LR prices are about the same now. I do think we are at the rock bottom once you combine POS+current inventory prices
I do and am seriously considering buying that car tonight (and not for my kids..oldest is only 11). In my mind, I said if it reached 37.9 there’d be no way I could resist…38.2 is prob about as close it’ll get. Hell, 2021 used RWD Ys are selling for that much practically. Anyone who feels like enabling my purchase, please chime in…I’m so tempted.
All true…my problem is more that I sort of like my car now…but it’s out of warranty and the Y is clearly a step up from my e-Golf (in every respect)…not sure why I am resisting…I have the cash in hand (well, it’s in my checking account but that’s close enough).
It is a great price. But the LR AWD for $44K is also a great price. So it just depends on how you plan to use it.
I got a great trade-in offer on the MYLR I bought last year and I'll be picking up my new one with fresh warranty for a bit under $1500.
Sales tax here in California hurts…li just paid over 4k in sales tax alone!
