It is important to note that in Massachusetts you only pay sales tax for the price difference between your old car and the new one if you are doing a trade-in. This can make Tesla's trade-in offers more attractive than they seem to be.

The Mass MOREv tax credit is off of what price? The sales price or after fees & taxes? I want to make sure the purchase is under the $50k limit.

So I believe its total vehicle price so on teslas website right now its showing a m3 LR with midnight paint is 48990 I believe that the base car price cannot be over 50k

After doing more research it seems that on their website it only gives you the rebate with the white now since they just upped the prices by 500$

The Mass credit is based on the bottom line price including the destination charges. Not sure if the latest Tesla price increases have pushed the Model 3 over the $50K limit, the Model Y exceeds the limit. When I bought my M3 AWD in 2019 I got it in black because that was $250 cheaper than the other colors aside from white which I didn't want. My car came in just under $50K so I got the credit, all of the other colors wouldn't have qualified. I didn't buy FSD until after Tesla registered my car, when I picked the car up in Dedham I signed the papers, they registered it and put the plates on and then I handed them my credit card and bought FSD. For insurance I'm using Allstate.
