Walked in for a new shirt at the mall and left with this...

[7summits]

Walked into the mall today to buy a shirt and randomly stopped into the Tesla store before leaving just to see if they had any nice inventory cars. Left with putting a deposit on the following. Am I crazy to not get this?

New Inventory 2018 Model S P100D with 1800 miles
$133,000
Dual Motor All-Wheel Drive Included
Midnight Silver Metallic Paint $1,500
Sunroof $2,000
21" Sonic Carbon Twin Turbine Wheels $4,500
White Premium Included Dark Ash Wood Décor Included Dark Headliner Included
Ludicrous Speed Upgrade Included Tesla Red Brake Calipers Included
Enhanced Autopilot $5,000
Full Self-Driving Capability $3,000
Premium Upgrades Package Included
Smart Air Suspension Included
Subtotal $149,000
Documentation Fee $75
Destination Fee $1,125
Shipping is free
Price Adjustment ($38,700)
Total $111,500

Since I am a current X owner, they took an additional $20K off for the ludicrous, removed FSD for $3k and removed the 21" wheels for $4500 bringing my total to $84,000 less the $3750 credit to a grand total amount of $80,250 pre-tax.

I am waiting to see if I can lease this thing.

Wow, nice to see them discount the Ludicrous on inventory models, and not just solely on new orders. Sounds like you got an amazing deal!

 

[Kuhz]

That is insane. It’s what my friend paid for 75D in 2017!

 

[Kuhz]

So they took off 20k for Ludi, but you get to keep it right?

Does AZ have a state EV rebate? If so, check to see what constitutes "new" -- in Colorado, 1800 miles would be too many (was 1500 miles when I bought my inventory S, and the car had 1200 or so). Still, seems like a screaming deal.

Trust me, I asked that same question 3 times separate times and had it written down on paper that the ludicrous would stay but the $20K would be deducted. The sales rep called me about 30 minutes ago saying he spoke to the finance team and we are good to go with taking off the $20K but keeping the ludicrous. I am just waiting now to see lease figures.

They do not. I was factoring in the $3750 fed rebate.

Even buying it would be a great deal since you are basically shaving off a good chunk of depreciation. Can’t find a used AP2.5 100DL for that price.

Yea, I still in the back of mind feel like this is going to go sideways at some point. I wont be excited until the ink is dry. My previous Tesla purchasing experience came with many false promises.

Yes, was thinking the exactly same thing. I am crunching the math as we speak. I have always shied away from purchasing Tesla just because of the risk of new technology and massive depreciation, but this situation seems to be quite different.

It's a bonus available to all owners. From Tesla's blog:

We also want to emphasize the critical impact each of our early Tesla owners has had on advancing our mission, so as a thank you, all existing Model S and Model X owners who wish to purchase a new Model S or Model X Performance car will get the Ludicrous Mode upgrade, up to a $20,000 (USD) value worldwide, at no additional charge.

Having just done something similar, I hate to tell you this, but your math is wrong. You subtracted the $38,700 twice. That $111,500 total includes the discount.

? I don’t follow.

You mean the ludicrous discount right?

I know about the bonus I just haven’t heard of Tesla taking 20 K off a car which already has LudI

The ludi comes free on a P to current owners, so do reason not to back adjust the price. Same thing as removing FSD, just a software setting.

There are a thread or two with others who have done the same.

That is ****ed! I e-mailed my Owner Advisor @ Kierland yesterday morning specifically about a new inventory 2019 P100DL and whether the Ludicrous gift could be applied to it. He quickly said "no", and then pointed out that I can order a P100DL with the latest updates cheaper than the inventory car. Duh! That solidifies my point that I should be able to buy a now outdated inventory car with the same free Ludicrous upgrade that I get on a factory order. BTW, the email I got from Tesla says "As an existing owner, you will receive a free Ludicrous Mode upgrade, a $20,000 value, if you purchase a new Model S or Model X Performance car." I see no differentiation between inventory or factory order.

Great for you though! Congrats!! I might have to take a casual trip down to Fashion Square.

PS - The car I was interested in would have been $86,850 pre-tax with the deductions you listed... you got a smokin' deal!

I was/am looking for a 100d. I found one with 21 inch wheels and asked if we could switch to 19. I was given firm answer No. Congrats on getting that discount also

Add up everything on the sheet (and note that there is no price for ludicrous because it's built into the base cost of the car). = 149,000
Now add doc and destination (1,200) = 150,200
Now subtract the discounts (rims, fsd, ludi = 38,700) = 111,500

Your cost isn't 111,500 - 38,700 (which would be 72,800). Your cost is 150,200 - 38,700… which is 111,500.

 

[mongo]

rims, fsd, ludi = 38,700

Rims (4.5k) + fsd (3k) + ludi(20k)= $27,500
The 38,700 is for being a 2018 non raven demo car with 1,800 miles.
