Tesla Model S CPO Website - Now Live

[bro1999]

Cheapest CPO I saw with RFS is this one: 60 kWh Model S P09509 | Tesla Motors
$50.1k 2013 S60 with 39.7k miles.

1. Red Multi-Coat Paint
2. All Glass Panoramic Roof
3. 19" Wheels
4. Black Leather Interior
5. Piano Black Décor
6. Supercharging
7. Tech Package
8. Active Air Suspension
9. Sound Studio Package
10. Rear Facing Seats

Still available as of this posting. I still need the price to drop another 5-10k before jumping in.

^ FYI according to my CPO adviser all CPOs are Supercharging enabled.

There is one with RFS that is slightly cheaper at $49350: P11043

So that one is $800 less, but has no pano roof, sound studio or tech package, and has 4k more miles.

I think I know which is the better deal.

Ok - just got a message from Brent.

He said that they have been doing an Internal Pricing Audit @ Tesla and prices will be going up on ALL CPOs.

Does anybody know anything about this?!?!?

I'm wondering if I need to do a panic purchase or what.....

Curious if it's a ploy to get you (and others) to pull the trigger. I'm thinking it's better to buy sooner than later if you find one to your liking, though. Either it will be snapped up by someone else, or this price spike actually does happen.

Yeah. It would also cost more to ship to MD, making it more expensive on the east coast.

I just wanted to point out that there was one with RFS that was cheaper than the "cheapest" one you found.

I'm curious about the pricing differential....the $50.1k one should be quite a bit more than the other one, based on the options packages. That or the $49.3k one should be quite a bit less. Wonder if these CPOs are manually priced, or there is some internal pricing software that just spits out a value.

Looks like they are starting to trickle in. Hopefully they will have some CPO P85D!

When I was talking to various people within Tesla in search of my CPO, I was told that Tesla is trying to keep as many of the lower mileage higher battery cars in their service inventory as possible for service loaners. Apparently the demand for loaners has significantly increased and they're having issues with the Model X as well. They've had to give some ICE cars and they want to avoid doing that. So only the higher mileage higher battery cars are coming up (85, P85, etc.) with over 40-45k miles and most/all of their 60s- hence why you see these with very low miles.

I'm sure as the 85Ds age in their inventory and the mileage starts clicking up past 40-45k, you'll see those in the CPO listings as well. I don't expect to see many of those yet as they're still too new for the cars to have accumulated those kind of miles.

Good question! I think the actual condition of the car would affect the price as well. I wonder if there are regional pricing differences as well.

I have to correct my original wording - Pricing is going up on SEVERAL CATEGORIES of model S.

So not all - but probably quite a bit of upward movement in pricing.

I believe some CPO cars also have a little carfax history to them. Not major, but some small repainting, etc. That along with condition would certainly effect price.

My CPO contact told me about the updated inventory. I told him I was waiting for cars with autopilot. He said he will keep an eye out, but there was no autopilot cars in the currently released batch.

I would wager they are using a formula to set the prices. Having run these through a modeling process the prices are very predictable which would not be the case if multiple people were just assigning prices out of the blue. The prices seem to be directly influenced by features, age, and mileage.

There's an S70D which has the necessary Autopilot hardware: 94424

However, it is located in Hawaii.

Interesting tidbit from my CPO contact, he says that any pricing he gave me so far on CPOs are good until next Monday. After that, they will be adjusting some prices up marginally but some will be adjusted even greater.

Not exactly sure what that all means, but thought everyone else on the CPO hunt would be interested in hearing.

Does anyone know what Tesla's Pre-owned financing is like? I know they have a special for new cars through Alliant (1.74%!), but can't find much info for the CPO's.

I'd call that "bluff". Tesla is not in control of the used market per se, the market itself is. The only way this would make sense is if they upped the cost of a new S by a substantial amount. The delta needs to be significant enough between new and CPO to move sales of new, inventory and CPO. Tesla is sitting on hundreds of CPO that are all depreciating assets and holding up much needed cash. I don't buy it and sounds like a classic sales pitch (very unlike Tesla) but still human nature.

Plus they could always pull the "Actually, that pricing increase was nixed by the mothership!" excuse if it turns out they don't increase prices. Seems very anti-Tesla to pull a "Buy before prices go up!" ploy, but Tesla is in the business of selling cars, so not 100% surprising.
