Living the Dream, Driving the Future!
I had considered there was a chance prices would drop further or simply allow other interior colors.
Then I saw delivery dates push out and inventory drop like crazy. Loyalty credits dropped.
The thought is in 2024, tax rebate might be half what it is. So if prices did indeed drop to $75k and the rebate is $3750. So the final price is $71k. Currently if you qualify? The price after rebate is $72k.
I don’t see it dropping below $75k personally. But who knows. But I have to think, 40k drop in a year, it would be insane to drop further.
I’ve always felt the X is about a $70k car and here we are at almost $70k after rebate. Good enough for me.
Exactly!
Already down $40k+ in the year, qualified FULLY for the Federal $7500, no cost color (up to $3k Ultra Red), $1k Tesla Loyalty (already reduced to $500 within days) AND 3 FREE months of FSD ($600 value).
They have nothing more to offer or prove at this point and I would imagine at this sub-$80k base price the margins are slim, but they got to move inventory, build up production que for Q4, bump Q3 sales numbers, got people to upgrade with the FSD transfers, etc.
Considering the likely bad news with the Cybertruck production and ramp up these added S/X orders provide a buffer for the rest of the year profits, and with the Model 3 Highland coming ASAP Tesla's got plenty of momentum now heading into 2024 IMO.
I'm not looking back now....only forward to my X!
