Deal Details
Tesla has dropped the base price of the Tesla Model Y from $65,990 down to $52,990. This price reduction means the Model Y now qualifies for the $7,500 Federal Tax Credit (details here).

Thanks to Community Member MurraytheDemonSkull for finding this deal.

Additionally, the base prices of all Tesla vehicles have been reduced. The base Model 3 is now $43,990, which is $3,000 lower than before. The Model 3 Performance is now $53,990, which is $9,000 lower than before, and now qualifies for the tax credit.

Editor's Notes

Written by RazorConcepts
  • This is $13,000 lower (19% savings) than the previous base price.
  • Factoring in the tax credit, the price of the Model Y today is $20,000 less than one purchased in December 2022.
  • To qualify for the federal tax credit, one must not exceed the following adjusted gross income limits:
    • $300,000 for married couples filing jointly
    • $225,000 for heads of households
    • $150,000 for all other filers
  • The tax credit is not refundable, which means one must have federal tax due to take advantage of it. If the tax due is less than the credit amount, one can only claim the credit up to the amount of the tax due.
  • Refer to the forum thread for additional deal discussion.

Quote from KingCoop :
Just an update for those who applied with Tower FCU. They are processing apps using first in first out (FIFO). From what I know they're working on those that applied around 1/18-1/19 at the moment. Once the eCommerce team starts working on your membership application it takes them a day or two to process the information. It helps to have already uploaded your identification (driver's license front and back) to the online portal. It does not help to call them until they reach out to you, it only ties up their customer support agents even more. Once they have reviewed and approved your membership, you will be contacted via the portal messaging to sign your membership document via DocuSign (or snail mail) and complete payment. Once these steps are complete it will be another business day to receive your membership information.

Separately, if you applied for a loan application at the same time as your membership, it will likely be approved much sooner. Once it is approved it sits in an "approved pending" state until your membership is completed. Once your membership is complete and account opened, it is recommended at this time to call in to the loan dept and let them know so they can proceed with disbursement of your funding/check.

Hope this helps both the people on this thread and Tower.

thank you for the info. Does TCU send the check to you or to Tesla directly? sorry , first time deal with lender...

Cuteness in your reply glosses over the fact that 12 inch iPad screen is good for nothing... maybe some can use it like a mirror to regret their purchase every time they look at it 😆

Probably it's way too late. I ordered 1/21 and my estimated delivery date is 3/19-31. I just texted them and they said 4/1 Frown

Quote from MurraytheDemonSkull :
From what I've read, it has a lot of limitations

• ⁠Designated highway only (no streets)
• ⁠Below 40mph
• ⁠There must be cars in front of you
• ⁠Must be able to take over within 10 seconds (no sleeping)
• ⁠Will not change lanes
• ⁠Does not work at night
• ⁠Does not work in rain, fog, or below 3 Celsius
• ⁠Does not work if there is construction nearby

So in this exact certain scenario, it will operate level 3.
This is different. This feature lets the driver dont even need to touch steering and it allows driver to read or do something else without the need to look on the traffic. Its mainly for peak hour traffic not for highway thats why slow speed. Different feature than tesla which requires driver to hold the steering wheel and focus on the road.

You know that's a few lines of code that Tesla could update to not require driver hold the steering wheel or look ahead?

Not saying that's what should happen. I'm a (former) Tesla FSD owner, and have a pretty good understanding of its limits. I can't imagine Mercedes being substantially better.

I ordered a day back; not keeping high hopes but willing to forgo that $250 if it doesnt come before March window.

But i am told that if you in California, there's a good chance it will be before March due to a heavy inventory movement to CA..

Few lines of code to a car that doesn't have the required hardware haha !! This is getting ridiculous.. Pl understand they were selling outdated technology to consumers during the pandemic boom with insane margins.. and in 2022 they tried new scheme to sell the same snake oil with 10k supercharge dollars incentive.. still inventory didn't move, not because people didn't want a premium EV, tesla was not worth advertised price.. now out of desperation, they had to lobby to work on a tax loophole for 3 months to keep them relevant.

Come on back to us when you've actually used Tesla's FSD system. We'll be here.
