wasn't sure when to post this but seeing it has to do with Australian pricing i through i would post here, i posted it on another website at first and feel free to do your own on model 3 or even your model S.
not that we know the pricing of the current model 3 and the exchange rate but as of today US$35,000 is $54,000 when you add 10% GST and another $2,000 on top(1 AUD = 0.740952 USD)
if you look at Model S Resale Value Guarantee for australia(as of 10/5/16) it is:
Resale Value Guarantee Term
Mileage Allowance (km) 36 48 60
15,000 50% 46% 42%
20,000 49% 45% 41%
25,000 48% 42% 38%
Tesla Resale Value Guarantee FAQ
To qualify for the Resale Value Guarantee, you must finance a minimum of 60% of the vehicle (on approved credit) for a term between 36 and 60 months.
now i did read someone here teslamotorsclub.com some said tesla allowed then to do 30% unless that means 60% and you don't include the balance(what the car is worth after say 60 months)?

COST PER WEEK
anyway a couple of weeks ago i worked out how much it would cost over
5 years weekly(resell is 42% so it looses 58% value?) with 15,000 km per year, i didn't include financing cost but did include prepay 4 year then a extra 1 year service based on todays pricing.
TESLA 5 YEAR COST AFTER 5 YEARS VALUE
cost(TO BUY) – 42% resell/5 years(42%))
$65000 – 58% $27,300
$60000 – 58% $25,200
$55000 – 58% $23,100
then divide 5(years)
27,300/5 $5,460
25,200/5 $5,040
23,100/5 $4,620
then divide52(weeks)
5,460/52 $105
5,040/52 $96.9230769231
4,620/52 $88.8461538462
service 4 year prepay + 1 year + $2500 insurance pre year
$2374 + 500
2,874/5
574.8 + 2500
3,074.8/52 which is $59.1307692308 per week
TOTAL COST PER WEEK including service/insurance
$164.1307692308
$156.0538461538
$147.9769230769
or you could choose 8 year prepay $4500(you would loose 3 years of service because you had car in but pricing is locked in because you prepay) + $2,500 insurance
$170.3846153846
$162.3076923077
$154.2307692308

Sorry for the long post one day i may include the finance cost unless someone else wants to do it, did i miss anything?
