Would you rather buy new or used?
I’d rather save $10k. Rates are climbing as well which means higher payments.
Used
Used - you can get FSD and Acceleration Boost for almost nothing on a vehicle with low mileage. Prices are very good right now (mid 2023)
Totally worth it for what is now $17k in “free” software upgrades! Plus solid warranty.
Thank you so much for your information. I have an internship interview for used car sales analytics role and this helped me very much in understanding the issues of buying a used tesla
Best of luck!
Great breakdown, thanks.
Thanks for this. I'm deciding if I should jump into my first EV and I'm weighing the costs, pros, cons, and so on. And this series took away some of the stress of searching through all of the sites and data. Appreciate it.
Anytime!
Such valuable content
Great video Ji. Lots of useful info and pro tips!
Glad it helped!
@@tesbros Helpes do much , I have my "Neused" Delivery Day tomorrow! Found a Unicorn of a deal IMHO ...hope they bless me with some freemium upgrades that be nice surprise if so. Taking your checklist with me & the wife will have hers on the ipad..lol
List price for Teslas here in Vegas were about $10k more than Tesla's website for comparable used Model 3. I was also able to do a trade in with Tesla. So it was much better pricing than the dealership. I didn't look at private party.
Glad you found the best deal for you!
Is it possible to hire someone as a consultant to help me determine what model S I should get? I was initially in the market for a 2016 model S but as I have learned more and more about the functionality and the potential upgrades I’m wondering if I should get a newer model up to a 2020 because I do not like the 2021 refresh. But even so I do wonder if there are any drawbacks to being closed off to newer models and it’s so hard to navigate the information online
Immediately subscribed. I’m still wary of buying one with a non-refundable delivery fee (Wisconsin boy so most are either 1 or 2k delivery fee with rare Illinois options for what I’m interested in) but I’m glad to get all your feedback throughout this series.
Welcome! Always happy to help
@tesbros Does anyone know , from Tesla's web store, why in NY I cannot transfer out of state teslas to a NY store? Those cars just don't show up - new or used.
Subbed! Never too long as long as it is informative. These 3 part series were very informative👍
QUESTION #1: When looking at buying from a private party/person, what do u recommend for checking the on the condition of the battery? (Other than checking the battery cover from underneath, as u recommended.)
QUESTION #2:
If buying 2020 or newer, is the battery condition a concern?
Thanks for your support! The battery is rarely a concern unless it’s physically punctured
I literally just reserved a 2022 M3LR Blue with white/black interior, 14k miles with Enhanced Auto Pilot and Accelerator Boost ($57k retail new) for $42,500. When the prices begin dropping they do so at a rate of 500 per day. Have a strategy and follow through. You then cannot blame anyone but yourself. I paid $500 for the deposit and i was close enough. The shipping fee was $500. All in all, a win i would consider. Plus the added 1 year to basic warranty is the same as buying 2023 for coverage sake. At 3.7 seconds 0-60, your LR is now a Performance comparable vehicle and actually is faster above 60 in a roll race with 358 miles of range. You can have a million dollars and be a millionaire but if you spend a million, youre as broke as the next guy.
One of the first videos on TH-cam I've ever commented on. This was extremely helpful and I learned a lot from your video. Thank You!!
Glad it helped!
Good information thanks! Just one question, what other fees or extra charges are made to the final price, besides the taxes and transportation fees, like how much more increase the price from the one is displayed on the Tesla website?
There shouldn’t be any additional fees
What makes me hesitant is the fact that the website want you to make a deposit and place the order before they even run your credit.
Their website, pre-order placed, has me locked in at 9.79% interest. Am I right and assuming that this will go up?
Excellent Video. I do have a question though. Do they do trade-in with the used Tesla car?
Yes. You can put your vin number and can get a estimated trade in value. You can do this through Tesla website.
The only thing I'm worried about is imperfections with the interior or paint things like that, not being able to see until delivery sucks
It does and for minor things, they won't cover it unfortunately. But you can always back out if it's not the quality you want.
@@tesbros Can you back out if the car had to be shipped to your local dealer?
Is the additional 1 year warranty kick in after the 4 year warranty? Or does it kick in when you take delivery of the car?
After the 4 yr warranty. From Tesla: Tesla used vehicles are covered by the remainder of 4 years or 50,000 miles left on the Basic Vehicle Limited Warranty. After expiration, the Used Vehicle Limited Warranty provides additional coverage of 1 year or 10,000 miles. If the Basic Vehicle Limited Warranty has already expired, the Used Vehicle Limited Warranty will provide coverage of 1 year or 10,000 miles, starting from your delivery date.
You have me 90% there. I’m ready to pull the trigger…. How does trading in your car online through their website work? Can you explain that process?
Once you have a VIN and the car at your delivery center, it’ll ask you if you have a trade in on the Tesla app. Most things are done through the app btw. During that process, put your vin and info with photos and they’ll come back in a few days with a offer. You can accept and if you do, you can bring that in for a trade in to save some costs on taxes. Hope that helps and let us know if you have any other questions!
Anyone been to the Tesla location in Lathrop, CA to look used Tesla?
Looking to purchase a used model X 2019 or newer. Is their way around the transportation fees?Found 4 that I may be interested in 1 1/2 hour away from me at the Tesla Nashville location. Asking $2000 transportation fee?
Unfortunately not. I tried but wasn’t successful in removing it. It does get lower if it’s closer though.
Thank you for sharing!
The only pro buying from Tesla is that you get that one year 10,000 mile warranty. Other than that , the cons are you’re buying a car unseen and if you cancel the delivery because it’s not what you expected it to be you lose your deposit.
That is true - you do lose that $250 if you cancel. I'd say there's a little comfort knowing all used Teslas put back on the market by Tesla should be in good shape, and if there's something wrong, they can fix it under warranty. But yeah, buying unseen is still a risk for sure
@@tesbros its not just $250 for used tesla. It goes from $0 if near you up to $2k if far away.
@@tesbros $250?? The deposit is always $500 for me in Missouri.
@@GoLongAmerica interesting. I haven’t heard of the $500 but are you referring to the delivery fee? That’s the minimum Tesla will charge for delivery even if it’s nearby. But the $250 non refundable goes towards the purchase.
@@tesbros That’s interesting. I guess Tesla fees are different depending on where one lives. Every Tesla order where I live has a $500 non-refundable deposit. I can pick up the vehicle for free, but if it needs to be transferred, the fee is $500-2000.
Great video. Do you have a video about the best 3rd party warranty for your tesla? I have a 2017 Model S that is out of warranty. Thanks in advance!
We recommend xcare www.xcelerateauto.com/xcare
@@tesbros Hope you can make a video about it! Thanks!
@@KLEANTRIXdaily thanks for the idea! Added to our list.
So the used Tesla market on the Tesla website is around the same has dealerships?
Similar. I would check out both to see who has the better deal for you in your area
Is the warranty from Tesla transferable to the new owner? If buying from a private seller?
Yes, you get the normal 4 year or 50k warranty + 8 years battery and drive train with the car. So it depends on how old the car is as to what you get
This is so crazy. Why would you say you can’t pick it up in Carlsbad. I live in Carlsbad. Can I pick it up in Carlsbad? I’m so confused. I really enjoy your videos. FYI.
You can pick it up but it costs more sometimes 😊
My only concert is lack of pics and they say car may contain cosmetic imperfections and when you click on details they say 4in scratches and 2in dents are acceptable... Those are huge in my opinion... I want to believe they would deal with imperfections but they cant guarantee. I called and they said I back from purchase once car arrives but by that time your deposit and transportation fee are non-refundable.
All very good points. Even if it’s somewhat more convenient than other ways of buying a used Tesla, it is a bit of a risk :/
Sonif the Model Y i like from their website does not have FSD or boost they will add it for free ?? I don't understand
No. Buying from Tesla will have a better chance of having those features though since they can add them easily, whereas buying from a private seller or dealership wouldn't have that option
@@tesbros - Does Tesla offer upgrades to buy during the transaction? We will most likely buy a used Model Y just looking if buying from Tesla is a better option. Thanks
They don't at the moment. Good luck with your search!
The car I’m buying is way less than KBB value. It’s a 2019 M3 SR+ with 23k miles for $37k. Supposed to be picking it up in a couple days but I’m a bit worried since it’s so much cheaper than KBB which was around $46k. Should I be concerned?
I personally wouldn’t be. It fluctuates and KBB is just a baseline. Tesla cars tend to fluctuate quite a bit. I’ve seen it go low but it usually goes back up. Demand isn’t an issue right now so I wouldn’t worry about not being able to sell it. However, if you’re trying to buy now and sell it, I’d be careful since the market has cooled significantly.
@@tesbros Not planning on selling it. This will be my daily driver….thanks for the reassurance. 👍🏻🙏🏻
@@73av8r5 congrats on your new ride!
@@tesbros From what you’ve seen….are the “CPO” cars Tesla sells in pretty good shape?
Hey, have you gotten it yet? How is it so far?
Where is it stated that all the used vehicle come fully upgraded with FSD?
They surely don't.
They don't all come with FSD. You'll have to check their features.
what’s the timeline for buying a used tesla? it said 1 week estimated delivery but for the past week my app has said “you will be notified once your final payment is available for review”
It can be 1-2 weeks. Id try to get a delivery specialist and ask them directly.
@@tesbros thanks for fast reply. How do I get in contact with a delivery specialist?
I ordered mine on the 14th….delivery is the 22nd. It’s in Houston, I’m in Fort Worth TX.
@@ssadelhow long did it take for delivery?
@@mostmost1 i believe i was finally contacted by a tesla agent at my delivery center about 2 weeks after buying. from CA to PA
Since when do they add the upgrades for free?
Not free to consumers. That just means they can add whatever they want before they resell and sometimes you can get a good deal
I’m pretty much convinced I’m going used Tesla through Tesla…
That's typically the most convenient route
Do you know if I buy used from Tesla, i will be able to claim the Used clean vehicle tax credit?
It qualifies if the price is under $25K and the car is at least 2 years old. For example, now in 2024, the car should be 22'.
Thank you for your insightt@@aphoticflame8149
@@aphoticflame8149do u know if there is a minimum credit score you need and a minimum down payment? on used inventory
no way used model y was 70k and now theyre 30k 1 year ago
Can you negotiate price at Tesla?
No, it's set
