So my Tesla model X lease expired in July 2020. I had to extend it as model Y hasn’t arrived. So yesterday I received an sms telling me Y has arrived and can pickup next week.
I posted the model x online to sell a month and had a serious enquiry. So I contacted Tesla to arrange buyout. So in 3 days I called them and ask them for a buyout quote but received nothing?!
Today the delivery specialist told me that even if I buy out the vehicle it’s subject for their inspection and the buyout process would take a month! I’m very surprised on this as first why they need to inspect anything when I’m buying it out?! And the process takes so long? I had bought out my leased Porsche with a third party and it was a breeze to buyout!
I talked to the Porsche sales and they said Tesla has a very good reselling position and Tesla simply don’t want leaser to buyout so they can make that extra buck on their own. I’m very disappointed With how they handle this and seems they are building these barriers from me buying it out. Anyone has similar experience?
Also noted that all new model y or 3 on just came out lease term you must return the vehicle. No purchasing right after you lease!
