Sell Tesla BEFORE delivery

[whitelinen]

Not ready for new Tesla coming soon. Would like to line up a buyer before delivery so they can register and take it home on day one. Allowable?

You can sell your reservation if that’s what you’re asking.

Yes. Would I just place an ad? Could I sell for a small profit? Does Tesla allow this?

Technically, they do not.

Technically, they do not.

In fact they’ve been known to ban resellers from buying.

Not technically allowed but there are workarounds (I’ve posted about before). It’s get problematic when the buyer wants a trade in or financing. It’s much easy to forfeit your Tesla account (give buy full access to account).

Thank you. Can you point me to your previous posts about this? I need to know about these workarounds. Yes, only selling with no financing constraints.

The two methods:

1) Forfeit Tesla account to buyer (may not be possible if seller owns a Tesla car). This is the easiest IMO.
2) Change the registration info and delivery to buyer's (also requires driver's license upload). See below.

For two - since Tesla doesn't support it as it is a loophole and who knows if Tesla will crackdown on it in the future.

1) Get SA (or customer service) to reset the registration info and delivery location on order. Might not be possible to change delivery location if already assigned VIN with delivery appointment.
2) Enter buyer's new registration info and delivery location. Driver's license will need to be uploaded.
3) Buyer pays for car (order still tied to original seller's account).
4) Seller transfers cars into buyer's Tesla account.

Requires some trust as the new buyer is paying for a car tied to the seller's Tesla account.

Did you end up selling/transferring the reservation?
