I think honesty if you could get $49k you are doing really good. Unfortunately Tax credits on the new lower prices and this week’s introduction of HW4 on the 3’s and Y’s makes the real value of used 2 to 3 year old cars substantially less than new cars. I have tried in the past to sell my...

That’s classic prep related clear-coat failure. When a wheel is repaired if the guy repairing only preps and paints a small area but then clears a larger area without proper scuffing the non repaired surface the clear will eventually peel. It’s a pain because all the new clear on the wheel needs...

Actually no, speaking from experience, we had a 6 seater and it was hard to sell because the 6 seaters have a distinct disadvantage in utility because the second row seats are fixed, not folding, which defeats one of the main purposes of having an SUV if you can only fold the far rear seat and...

For those thinking pricing in the $90k’s is crazy, a 10 second search shows Tesla is currently discounting new ‘23 model X’s, with no miles, by over $10k, add to that another $3k owner loyalty discount plus some bonus free supercharging and that puts a new white X as low as $95k or even lower...

I bought an early ‘22 last year and it was still an Atom so a ‘21 would definitely be an Atom

Awesome hot rod for the money!

Sure, sorry I wasn’t trying to ruffle your feathers. I understand accidents happen but are you saying if you don’t hit things with your car somehow it makes you abnormal? Are people who don’t hit curbs somehow not living their lives to the fullest? Cars have mirrors and I use them so I can...

Oh now I see now that wasn’t your post, not very nice. I just thought you adjusted your price to be inline with the current market. This thread actually spurred me to look at my local Performance Model X’s in that new price range.

Since you asked about FSD zero value. I personally only consider the value of FSD to be the future resale value to a future buyer that might place value on it. I think Tesla should have switched back to charging for basic autopilot "AP" to lower the MSRP‘s to meet the Tax threshold (optional...

I looked at a few ‘22’s at dealers and many dealers are not even aware yet or pretend not to be aware that the new ones are cheaper. The late model inventory at dealers will take a hit when more people realize their inventory is priced too high. 2022’s will take the hardest hit because first...

I’m looking for one priced less than new for my son. Was the car a Demo car when you bought it? I see it went in service in June but you said you bought it in September. Warranty starts when the car starts being used whether for a demo or new sale whichever is first. The high miles lowers the...

In Mid 2019 Tesla changed the S and X suspension and the front motors to utilize the model 3 rear permanent magnet motors. The mid ‘19 change eliminated the option of power sunroofs, SiriusXM radio, ventilated seats, the name P100D was changed to simply Performance, interior door sill P100D...

I didn’t trade the car yesterday because Tesla was able to transfer my trade valuation to the Grey car I prefer over the white one yesterday. My plan is to trade it in on Wednesday the 25th if someone doesn’t buy the car first. I’m not holding my breath at this point because I only have it...

I was on my way to pick up my new car this morning and Tesla called and was finally able to transfer my trade value from the white/white car I was going to get to the other grey/white car that I prefer so I’ll pick it up on the 25th. They are giving me $61,400 for my car.

Good morning, unfortunately I’m heading down to Fort Lauderdale to trade the car at 11:45
