Same boat here. I have an cybertruck order, but also was considering a Model 3 after federal rebate in addition. This was an edge purchase, meaning we could just keep our other gas car. Now with the higher price, it will not happen. As a stockholder, I understand. But I hate hearing the lie 'its inflation'. Because it is not. Profit margins are going up, not down.As an investor and TSLA shareholder I agree, given the current demand raising prices makes sense.
As a consumer hoping to buy my first Tesla next year, a Model Y LR, I am upset because the price of my next car keeps climbing higher and higher. At this point I'll likely just keep my current 2015 Subaru Crosstrek much longer than I intended until the prices of Tesla's fall again. I don't care how wealthy I am, as a frugal individual I do not like paying more for a product than I want to, and right now the price of a LR MY is more than I'd want to spend.
Thankfully I do love my little Crosstrek, and if my TSLA shares skyrocket quicker than I expect then frack it I'll pay whatever Tesla wants for a Model Y.
While Tesla will get some more revenue for free, when Berlin and TX are both online, to address that market they will indeed need lower prices. So there are going to be a bunch of price drops later, pissing off the customers who buy now at the current 'peak'. I think the price increases were acceptable until the Model 3 hit $39.990. But the latest one is just too much and will result in unhappy customers, both who purchased and now those who cannot purchase.
