Should I sell my refreshed model S to a dealer?

[Joelkandy]

Hi,
I just got an offer from a dealer to purchase my 2022 refreshed Blue Model S with White interior?
The offer was 95k cash offer.
Can anybody shed any light if this is a good price?
The car has 144 miles on it.

You can ask for more now? Prices just increased again

OP I'd happily buy your car for $97k.

I hesitated to post here but since I have experienced this I'll go ahead anyway. I think you can get a good deal from a dealer as well. Not necessarily as high as an individual sale, but you can certainly get more for your car than you paid for it. How do I know? I just did it with my Refreshed Model S.

I had only put about 1300 miles on mine since November, when I bought it new from Tesla. I also previously owned a Model 3, so I've been a big Tesla supporter. But the issues with the lack of stalks, general poor UI (in my opinion), and always poor service just made me realize I was unhappy with the "car of my dreams", my Model S.

I'll probably be buying another Tesla again in the future, but for right now, I'm without one.

To my point and your question @Joelkandy yes, I say go for it. I got offers from Vroom, CarMax, Carvana, and an EV dealer in the midwest for my car. ALL of them were for much more than I paid for my car. So I went to my local Toyota dealer, where I had previously been eyeing up a loaded Venza, and let them run some numbers. Their offer was BETTER than CarMax's and very close to the other offers. I walked out of the dealer with a fully paid-for Venza and a large check in my hand. I netted more than I had shelled out back in November. LEt me know via DM if you have any questions and I'll be happy to supply details.

if 95K > what you paid for (including fees, ..etc) then
think about it if you have another car to use in the mean time or can buy one without markup
else
WTH are you asking

Give the bank what I owe on it.
question is, with the gas prices rising and demand for Tesla is that a fair price?

Seeing as how you qualified for the loan (you're not broke), didn't buy a 3, the demand and the rising gas prices, the question is lame.

DM sent.

If a dealer is offering $95k, that means a private seller (in this market) will snap it up for at least 10-15% more than that...in less than...a week.
