2022S-LR
2022 MS Refreshed
Pablo I actually didn’t purchase FSD at all . I was planning to buy it after I pick up my Model S LR. At the time of ordering (April 28 ‘22), and all the way up to day of confirmed pick up date (July 21) , the FSD was still priced at $10,600 cdn .Wait I’m confused. Why would you purchase FSD with your vehicle price when it pushes it into a higher tax bracket?
before May’s FSD 20% increase across the board . (The May FSD increase to my two other Teslas, M3 and MY , the app was showing $12,800 cdn For full FSD. )
Knowing that if I pickup the car with FSD pre installed, I would be paying on top a luxury tax (+9% on the FSD upgrade )
Everyone has to pay the inescapable luxury tax & provincial and federal tax (9+12%). On purchases over $125k cdn.
So July 21 comes up and I get my 2022 Model S LR at the purchase price of $131,600 cdn plus (21% tax) . the optional FSD now has increased to $12,800 on the app.
I thought if i could hold off on preinstalled FSD, I could avoid the car luxury tax 9% on the $10,600 . So my thinking was to save $954 luxury tax on the FSD if installed after delivery . New price for FSD , after delivery is now stands @ $12,800. On all three cars .$ 10,600 price for FSD has evaporated from the S. Can’t win , was try to save $954 and now will have to pay $2200 more for FSD.
( side note : Sept 1 2022 , all vehicles and boats in Canada with purchase price over $100k , will get hit with a revised rate of 20% Luxury tax, and your 7% provincial & 5% federal
For a fat total of 32% tax )
I guess I’m luck that my Model S LR came before Sept 1 -saved me 11% on the whole purchase price
