So let me get this straight...
You're fortunate enough to be able to buy an $80k-140k luxury automobile and the manufacturer announces a new product and then you complain that what you bought a week or a month ago is not the newest and greatest?
Really?
Really?
People... you own a freaking Tesla! The car is still amazing.
Is this some insane case of keeping up with the Jones's next door? There will ALWAYS be something better.
And frankly... if you can afford to buy an $80-$120k vehicle then you can afford to take the loss and trade up to the newest model if that is really what you want to do.
And if that is a big loss that you cannot afford to make then frankly you couldn't afford the Tesla to begin with and be happy with what you have.
If you cashed out your 401k and are stretching to the max to afford the month car payment.... then you couldn't afford the Tesla. (I know people who have cashed out their 401k for one - that is idiotic)
And I say this as someone who cannot afford a Tesla. I own a Nissan Leaf free and clear and one day I will pay for a Tesla in cash but today is not that day.
If you're stretching yourself financially to own one you need to take a step back and reevaluate. If Tesla announcing a new car with new features that isn't in yours makes you whine and complain then you need to reevaluate.
It's a car people. A spectacularly awesome car... but still ... it remains just a car.
Rant over.
