Hello, I hope you're well.
Tesla is offering certain customers a $7,500 discount and 10,000 Supercharger credits if they take delivery of a Model 3 or Model Y by 12/31/2022. Check your text message;
here is an example.
Yesterday,
I posted about how the Model 3 RWD and Model Y will qualify for the full Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) $7,500 if you take delivery in January or February 2023 (of course, if Tesla runs promotions or drop prices in early 2023, there could be better savings then). This is better in several major ways:
- Lower sales tax because this is a discount, not a tax credit
- You get the discount immediately, instead of having to wait until 2024 when you file taxes for 2023
- You get 10,000 Supercharger credits, which is valued at between $500 and $900
- If you're financing, you don't have to pay interest on the $7,500
- (For some people) If you didn't qualify for the tax credit due to being over the income limit, you don't have to worry about that at all
- 12/29/2022 UPDATE: IRS published its list [irs.gov], and some vehicles will not qualify for the tax credit that starts in 2023; of note, Model Y 5-Seat does not qualify because it passes the $55,000 limit, whereas the Model Y 7-Seat does qualify because it is below the $80,000 limit.
- 01/04/2022 UPDATE: The 10,000 Supercharger miles (which is actually 4,000 kWH) have been added to the Tesla App. Check Settings > Loot Box.
Author's Note: This is a deal thread, not a political thread or a thread for people who dislike Tesla. Please refrain from going off topic or thumbing down this thread. You have every right to hate Tesla and its CEO, but please don't thumb down a thread related to Tesla simply because of that. Slickdeals is a deal-hunting forum above all else, and I'd greatly appreciate it if we treat threads in Hot Deals as deal threads and nothing else. Thank you.
I hope this helps,
Tofu Vic

I picked up arojnd 6 or 7 am on new years 1/1
But I hit accept delivery button on app on the 31st
why should it be on the consumer to deliver their end of the contract? big corp should be held responsible for their screw ups.
You cant double dip with tax rebate
1. Tesla has offered the sale of the car and claimed it has in its inventory.
2. Tesla has assigned the customer VIN and assigned tasks for the paperwork.
3. Customer diligently executed all of the required tasks and make full payment.
4. Tesla took the full payment.
5. Tesla failed to deliver the car.
While the contract maybe null and void, but in this case, customer may have actionable case claiming damage for negligence on Tesla part or force contract performance. I'm not a lawyer, but for those who suffered lost as a result, I would recommend seriously consider their options, including consulting with a lawyer.
@Travis64 - this is not about double dipping with tax rebate, as that's a separate issue.

And I'm against all this standing up for big corporations especially within the slickdeals community. Why assume that it's always the consumer's fault? My default is almost always to point the arrow at shady big corporations.
Finally, tax credit has nothing to do with Tesla's bottom line. Whether or not me as a consumer can get a tax credit is between me and the federal government. My contract was never "contingent" upon tax credits.
I got the model y today, and I believe I suffered damages in the amount of $7500 as result of Tesla's unfair business practice. I don't have the resources to start a class action lawsuit but will join if one is being filed.

And also the consumer needed to press "accept delivery " on app before 11:59 pm on 12/31
I picked mine up at 6 am 1/1
But I clicked accept delivery 11:30 pm
I drove 8 hours in the rain and broke down and had to get towed to go pick up this stupid car

You can't be a part of a class action lawsuit

And driving 8 hours in rain to pick up car… how is that the responsibility of the consumer when the company representative made statements repeatedly on 12/31 that the car is on the way and will get to my door?
I'm now seeing that there may indeed be lawsuits based on this bs. Let's see how this turns out in court.
