Who Qualifies
You may qualify for a credit up to $7,500 under Internal Revenue Code Section 30D if you buy a new, qualified plug-in EV or fuel cell electric vehicle (FCV). The Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 changed the rules for this credit for vehicles purchased from 2023 to 2032.
The credit is available to individuals and their businesses.
To qualify, you must:
Buy it for your own use, not for resale
Use it primarily in the U.S.
In addition, your modified adjusted gross income (AGI) may not exceed:
$300,000 for married couples filing jointly
$225,000 for heads of households
$150,000 for all other filers
You can use your modified AGI from the year you take delivery of the vehicle or the year before, whichever is less. If your modified AGI is below the threshold in 1 of the two years, you can claim the credit.
The credit is nonrefundable, so you can't get back more on the credit than you owe in taxes. You can't apply any excess credit to future tax years.

The sale qualifies only if:
You buy the vehicle new
The seller reports required information to you at the time of sale and to the IRS.
Sellers are required to report your name and taxpayer identification number to the IRS for you to be eligible to claim the credit.
The new law requires the POS (Dealer or manufacturer) to report a bunch of information on the buyer to the IRS.
Such as:
Seller/Dealer name and taxpayer ID number
Buyer's name and taxpayer ID number
Maximum credit allowable under IRC 30D for new vehicles or IRC 25E for previously owned vehicles
Vehicle identification number (VIN), unless the vehicle is not assigned one
Battery capacity
Date of sale
Sale price
For new vehicles, verification that the buyer is the original user

Summary of February 28, 2023 updates:
……
In addition to the standard CVRP rebate, consumers with household income less than or equal to 400 percent of the federal poverty level are eligible for an increased rebate amount of $5,500 (previously $2,500) for BEVs and PHEVs, and $3,000 (previously $2,500) for FCEVs. This amounts to:
……….$7,500 for battery-electric vehicles (previously $4,500)

B Thank you for your email. Vehicle manufacturers must apply for Clean Vehicle Rebate Project (CVRP) eligibility with the California Air Resources Board (CARB) and meet a number of program requirements. If all program requirements are met, the vehicle is added to the list of eligible vehicles on our website. At this time, Tesla has not applied.

Excluding taxes and fees, I paid $63,940. It's now $59,630, which is $4,310 less, and it is eligible for the $7,500 tax credit. That means if I didn't buy it in December and bought it today, I would have saved $11,810 + sales tax, so a bit over $12,000 in savings I missed. (I got 10,000 Supercharger miles, which is worth somewhere between $500 and $1,000.) With taxes and fees, I paid $71,578.55 in total.
For those who do order, I recommend this Tesla Prep guide [glideapp.io] to check for build quality issues on delivery day.
I hope this helps,

The disclosure, which was first reported by Electrek, comes as the company faces scrutiny over the safety and capabilities of its standard advanced driver assistance system known as Autopilot and the $15,000 optional upgraded product branded as "Full Self-Driving." Tesla FSD beta software offers some automated driving features but is not a self-driving system.
The luxury EV-maker has long claimed it could reach full autonomy through a "vision only" approach that shuns other sensors like lidar and radar in favor of cameras and a deep neural network that quickly processes a vehicle's surroundings and responds in real time. Tesla CEO Elon Musk previously promised to "solve" full self-driving by the end of this year (he's also promised Tesla would get there every year for roughly nine years now). He has recently admitted the problem will take longer to solve.
And perhaps, as every other autonomous vehicle technologist says, it's not actually achievable yet through cameras alone.
The company began removing radar from its vehicles last May. In October, Tesla removed its 12 ultrasonic sensors from Model 3 and Model Y vehicles built for North America, Europe, the Middle East and Taiwan. Ultrasonic sensors measure distance via ultrasonic waves and are used as proximity sensors to support anti-collision safety systems, particularly in parking use cases.
Now it appears radar is back. It's not yet clear which models will get the new radar. The type of radar Tesla intends to market next year is of a frequency that's allocated by the FCC for ADAS use cases, according to Ram Machness, chief business officer at Arbe Robotics, which produces ultra-high-resolution 4D imaging radar.
Tesla had originally filed with the FCC to use the new radar — which is described in filings as "76-77 GHz Automotive Radar" — in its vehicles back in June.
"From the frequency of operation (76-77GHz) as well as the mechanical design of the sensor from Tesla's FCC filing, it appears that this radar would be utilized in ADAS applications," Steven Hong, VP and general manager of radar technology at semiconductor company Ambarella, told TechCrunch.
He noted that while the performance of this "edge" radar sensor will be limited, it's a positive development that Tesla is looking to add radar to its perception stack for safety-critical, robust performance.
Earlier this year, the FCC had granted a confidential treatment to Tesla in order to keep the details of the new radar under wraps. Late last month, Tesla applied to extend that confidentiality treatment another 60 days from its date of expiration, which is December 7.
i hope this answers your question

I'll throw out some notable 'milestones' , focusing only on the Model Y LR base model:
* Feb 2021 - $49,000 - Roughly the lowest price for the Y LR (not including the SR @ $42k)
From this point forward, Tesla started increasing the price about $1-2 every month or so, until it peaked out at $66,000. Ex:
* May 2021 - $51,000
* July 2021 - $53,000, etc...
* Feb 2022 - $59,000, etc...
* July 2022 - $66,000 <-- peak
* Dec 1 2022 - $66,000 (-$3750 credit/refund)
* Dec 15 2022 - $66,000 (-$7500 credit/refund)
* Jan 1 2023 - $66,000 back to peak (-$7500 fed tax credit only on 7-seater)
* Jan 13 2023 - $53,000 (-$7500 fed tax credit on base model + 7-seater but not performance)
* Jan 23 2023 - $53,500 (-$7500 fed tax credit on base model + 7-seater but not performance)
* Feb 4 2023 - $55,000 (-$7500 fed tax credit on all models)

I see this: "The crash has raised questions about the technology and the driver's role in the incident. Several Tesla owners and experts suggest human error may be a factor, amid a federal investigation."
Investigations take time so to say this or that is the definite cause is premature.
I have experienced Tesla's well-known phantom braking while using their autopilot. It is unnerving when the vehicle suddenly slows down for no reason.
I don't think Tesla or Musk take criticism very well so they will continue to blame the driver even when their self-proclaimed FULL SELF DRIVING doesn't work as the name suggests. They continue to overstate the car's ability while charging $15k for its "phantom" ability. It'd be false advertising if it was any other company.
Phantom braking is a tiny issue. I get it once maybe once every 2-3 hours and it is easy to override. You just drive the car for a second and then put it back on autopilot. Amazing, I know.
I think the only people it really bothers are the ones who are completely disengaged from driving, with their feet off the pedals and hands off the wheel. Then sure, it will take you a few seconds to take control of the car while you slow from 75 to 55 mph. Super unnerving when you're watching a movie or browsing slickdeals with two hands on your cell phone.
Even with phantom braking, autopilot is probably still a better driver.
Salary combined with wife withholds approx 10k federal tax in 2022, so I do not 'owe' anything at time of filing taxes, about break even point.
So, since I have already paid approx 10k in federal, would a check / rebate be sent from IRS for this $7500 tax credit?
Does it have to be for this year filing taxes on 2022?
Electric cars inherently require much less maintenance.
Meanwhile stealerships make more money on service than selling a car (pandemic may have thrown that off temporarily), so they have very little incentive to sell a car that doesn't require nearly the maintenance

The Full Self Driving BETA works exactly as the name suggests, and couldn't possibly make it any more clear that the driver needs to remain attentive.
I left out many other scenarios like RWD, 4WD and manual transmission variations.

I get it that most tesla owners can't afford maintenance on top of $500 payment for their luxury super car, but can you at least try to manage the spread of misinformation?

You list is so shitty that it recommends timing belt change at 90k......while all BMW engines use only timing chains which do not require service....

Recommended Maintenance Schedule
Depending on how and where you drive, and in what conditions, the amount and type of maintenance your BMW will need will vary. Read your owner's manual for a detailed breakdown of common service tasks, but here's what you can expect:
Every 10,000 miles, or yearly: replace engine oil, oil filter, and coolant
Every 20,000 miles, or every two years: inspect and replace fuel filters
Every 30,000 miles, or every three years:
Replace brake fluid (after the first replacement, every 60,000 miles)
Replace transmission fluid on manual-transmission BMWs
Every 60,000 miles, or every six years:
Replace engine air filter and spark plugs
Inspect and replace brake pads and brake rotors, as necessary
Replace transmission fluid on automatic-transmission BMWs
Every 90,000 miles, or every nine years: replace timing belts and hoses
After 90,000 miles, repeat the above cycle, and always keep up your 5,000-mile basic maintenance structure. Also remember that your BMW's New Vehicle Limited Warranty will expire at 50,000 miles, so it's a good idea to get covered repairs done before then. You'll also want to replace the battery around the 50,000-mile mark.

Instead of preventive maintenance, you get paid subscriptions to unlock car features you paid for once when you bought the vehicle. That is making Tesla a LOT more money than prevention manitenance
How much is it and are they charging a mark up?
$35K will be the price by 2024 OTD, POS.
You can think about how you didn't get the best possible deal or you can think I got a very good discount that a lot of buyers in 2022 did not get. I guess it comes down to how you choose to look at it and how you want to live your life.
