I'm very surprised these are not moving like hot cakes. Is it because it's the weekend or are the prices still too high?
I didn't particular see any good deals at least for the P85Ds that were listed.
Without the 21" Wheels you can get a completely loaded P85D without the rear facing seats for the low $120Ks. So a new one would cost it the low $110Ks after the rebates and you get to specify exactly the options you want along with selecting the interior and exterior colors you want. You also then get the benefit of driving home a completely new car that has not been insanely abused with likely thousands of launches and rough driving.
The inventory and CPO P85Ds they are offering cost just about the same as a new car and i think most potential buyers will find it makes more sense to just buy new and this might be the reason why they are not selling like hot cakes. We are looking to buy an inventory or CPO P85D and none of the current CPO and inventory vehicles on the Tesla Web site make any sense whatsoever to us due to the high pricing.
I will add however that there are better deals to be had by contacting your favorite Tesla store as they have access to a larger inventory that is actually better priced. Basically these prices that are currently online are no big deal.

Unfortunately I've not found this to be true with what my OA has found. A $1k off here or there but nothing that seems like they want to move inventory by year end. Maybe in a couple of weeks?

I agree. Once a week I get with my sales person and we go over every car from Oregon to Chicago, we have been doing this for 3 months. I have not found one car that was a good deal. Tesla's are so overpriced and the older ones are not worth buying. When P85D's get down to the $90K range then I will buy.
I agree with pretty much most of what you've said as we also are not interested in buying an older pre-Autopilot Model S. However the good deals to be had are with some of the older Model S vehicles. Especially the 2013 and 2014 P85 vehicles make for some great deals and I have seen some offered for sale outside of the Tesla Web site at extremely attractive prices.
We too are looking for a P85D and I agree that there are really nothing we have found that is worth buying. In fact with just about every P85D available for sale as CPO or and Inventory vehicle it seemed much better to buy one new as we are extremely picky about the exterior color, leather color, and wanting Obeche wood. Also we have zero interest in 21" wheels so any car offered for sale needs to be $4,500 less just to break even with a new car with the 19" wheels we want.
We are also in the same boat as you in waiting until the prices are in the $85-90K range for a P85D before buying and I doubt we are alone. I have a very good feeling they will be in the $85K range next year and with two other cars in the household we are waiting until the pricing makes sense. This seems like a not so great time to buy a P85D under the current pricing and I think anyone looking to buy a used P85D for around $110-$120K should seriously consider buying a new car for almost the same price, especially since the drivetrains have apparently been improved over the last few months.

Not too surprising. There are still zero cars under $60k. Some fantastic cars added on Friday, but agree with you and MsElectric that for the discounts, you're basically better off ordering new (with $1k referral credit). I was told November 23rd is the cutoff for ordering new and taking delivery in 2015. Maybe after that date we'll see a price drop? Also expecting to see a surge of sub-$60k CPOs as Q4 deliveries pick up. (Partly driven by pre-AP MS owners upgrading to AP cars.)

5 cars are currently available at the $60K price point ...
Yes, looks like over 50 Inventory cars hit the list with EV incentives including the Federal $7,500 tax credit available.

While I won't say it's impossible, it could be that the ViN was assigned and the owner pushed "delivery" so far out that they didn't produce it until AP was available later in 2014. That said, it also could be a typo (maybe of the VIN?).
Maybe a VIN "gap" due to a cancellation or whatever other issue was filled with a later production batch?
Or maybe a mistake...
If indeed it is an AP Unicorn that is a great price for a fully loaded 2014 P84 with Autopilot for $80K.

I'm going to guess it's just mis-coded on the TM side as having AP.
The VIN gap theories don't pass the sniff test.

It's too large of a VIN gap.

I think TP03 is after the Tech package became standard. So after a certain VIN (aroun 86xxx), it's possible to have a non-AP car that includes what the old tech package had. I'll do some updating tomorrow.
yeah, that's what I'm saying.

Yeah, we know that already.. All the options are listed on ev-cpo.com... The question was: what is TP03 which is a new option code obviously related to TP/AP. See my post above.
Also, that option list is very outdated and is missing many added options over the last year. I'm keeping the list on ev-cpo.com as current as possible.
