Just signed today, Los Angeles area. 2023, MSRP 106k $650/mo tax included, 2k total driveoffs. Money factor was a little high but at that point I said yknow what it’s fine let’s do it. 20% off MSRP 10k total rebates These are definitely moving now with these deals. I’d say don’t be greedy looking for the absolute best deal possible. Be nice, courteous, and factual and that you’re willing to sign asap. Nobody is going to play hard to get when they’re giving this much off. If you get a deal in this ballpark, run with it. Looking exclusively for '22s is a waste of time. Call dealers and see who is motivated and doesn’t. ---

Nope. The money factor was high, but I wasn’t going to fight with them at the finish line when the deal was so good. ---

Invest that $9K in something like SGOV ETF or treasuries and get risk free and CA tax free 4.5% return. ---

Both, if you qualify for the “EV Welcome credit”. But his breakdown is correct. Edit: should be $11,500 for all three. ---

Everything but the EV conquest. Beware, most dealers are trying to pocket the EV Welcome $2,500 themselves, since they’re taking such a loss on the cars.y I was able to get it because they messed up on their end in the calculations (claiming the $2,500 was in the discounted MSRP) but I showed them the math. This gave me leverage to be aggressive and say include it in there and I’ll be there in the hour, which they agreed. I’m also in sales myself so I know how to get to where I want. I’ll PM the dealer to those who asked once the close friends that are interested close! I don’t anticipate dealers giving everyone this deal. Once they’ve let go of enough of these cars (and they’re definitely moving) you won’t have the same leverage anymore. ---
