Value Advice - Gray 2017 Model S 100D w/ 12,000 miles but no Autopilot

[TomLewis3]

I just bought a Gray 2017 Model S 100D with 12,000 miles (clean title, one owner, and very good condition) today at an auto auction through a buddy that owns a dealership. However it does not have autopilot enabled. Any thoughts on value without autopilot (the production date on the inside of the door shows 10/17 so I’m pretty sure it is HW 2.5)?

The value of EAP is $5000 when it was available

$49k auction price

I'd check both Carfax and autocheck.

I just found a car the other day that had damage reported on Carfax and on autocheck it showed frame damage. They will also give you some initial metrics on price, then you can make a market adjustment

You looking to flip the car ? As above mentioned the menu price was $5k ..the intrinsic value for someone using a lot is probably more ... also car doesn’t have free SC

You can buy a brand spanking new one - 2019 100D, loaded, for almost $70k, so I'd put yours in the ball park of $50k(at auction). Since it's 2 years older, unknown history, no autopilot, etc.

So what did you pay?

Damn, I'm feeling better and better about getting rear ended and having my 2017 S 100D totaled for $81,000!

The original owner could have added EAP. Its really unfortunate for them to have paid as much as they did for the car and not have added the EAP feature to make it a much better vehicle to drive.

You can now add just AP from $3K from Tesla, and I'd strongly recommend doing that.

Look at this one w/EAP : 2017 S 100D no EAP maybe $70k
Model S / 2017 / Black - 7fe53 | Only Used Tesla

Value advice if I were to sell it again...

I paid $70k... when I go to build a brand new one on Tesla, with the same options as mine (except including regular autopilot) it is $86,750 before tax credit. How is this one you’ve referenced so low?

$70K is exactly what I paid.

70k for an auction car? Ouch....

 

[iqless]

$70K is exactly what I paid.

That's an inventory vehicle, they can sometimes have massive discounts.

Linked car is black/black with zero options. Not “loaded” as claimed. And it’s $77200 with delivery fee - not almost $70k as stated.

Unfortunately you definitely overpaid for an auction vehicle. There's a FB page called "Tesla Showroom Deals" that has deals quite frequently on inventory vehicles. There's been a few 2019 100D's on there for around $70K w/FSD.

After federal tax credit, its $73.5K for a brand new car with AP. The 2019s come loaded as standard, the only options now are wheels and FSD.

If you paid $70K and add $3K for AP, it’s essentially the same price for a 2 year old car. So I’d recommend enjoying the car and keeping it for a few years. It’s not going to be possible to flip it for a profit.

I’m unfamiliar with these models. What types of options could it be missing? Compared to a price like this I fee like the biggest idiot in the world...

How big are the delivery fees on those? It’s so strange that when you look at customizing a new vehicle the prices are so much higher than these. Also, the used CPO options directly from Tesla seem way more expensive than many of the brand new existing inventory cars (as opposed to “customized” new vehicles). I’m so confused now... not to mention an idiot for paying so much for the auction car...did I mention that I’m an idiot!?

I was definitely not looking to flip it for a profit. I was wondering if I could/should just sell it back at auction as there were other bidders interested very close to my same price. My intention when I bought it was to own it and use it forever, but not if I just simply way overpaid and can get a much better deal elsewhere (like a brand new existing inventory directly from Tesla). I’ll take any advice...
