Paying a premium for offloading the risk to the bank is just a financial decision. That risk insurance had a certain cost that makes it tolerable.
Previously, Tesla did not allow buy outs ever on the 3 and y leases, meaning you had absolutely no recourse to capture any of the high resale value potential in the vehicle. That takes away a big benefit of leasing as you’re no longer offloading depreciation risk. It’s a straight rental with no way to keep it at the end.
Last I heard, Tesla was changing that, but had only done so in select European and Asian markets.
So the program is coming back July 1, and yes the msrp has to be under 55k but excludes any destination fees etc which is $1200 for this car, so it comes in under the 55k limit
Yes you are correct. Our baby is due in July so we will need the car then. Trying to take advantage of the market now by selling our current vehicles and prepare for what we will get next
Yeah, but I’m not giving people brain damage over a deal that’s not a deal and is 2 months away. You want everyone to tell you to lease the car go to tesla forums, they’ll agree with you. And don’t forget to add the charger and electrical setup and we’ll see you back here in private transfers.
That’s interesting. Wonder if they will bring that to the US soon? I sold my Tacoma lease to vroom last week for 4400k positive equity. I realize that’s not possible with Tesla since you can’t buy.
Our other option is a x3 m40i but I think those depreciate pretty quickly right? Selling it before maturity for a profit wouldn’t really be possible I’m guesisng
The thing is that the teslas do tend to have a very high resale. Mix that with a lease with a lower RV and no way to purchase it at all, and you’re left with a lease that makes no sense.
Tesla has effectively killed the main benefits of leasing here… just buy the damn thing if you want it.
Did you not get that suggesting selling is offensive to the OP as it doesn’t fall with his opinion. He wants an affirmation and we are all trolling him with our opinions.
Finance the car since you are dead set on it and then sell it after 3 years to take advantage of the excellent resale value. There is your Tesla lease. Even the MF will be lower, I know banks doing 1.75% and lower for Teslas and EVs.
