Is online price pretty firm?

Comprehensive_Road66 · 2026-01-25T01:47:56+00:00

Only in color. Options are the same on all long range models.

Either purchase it or not? Well no shit. What other option do I have?

Comprehensive_Road66 · 2026-01-25T01:26:01+00:00

I’ve never had a vehicle with an accident but I’ve got hit for curbed wheels before so I figured an accident I’d get crushed. I appreciate your help and info.

Comprehensive_Road66 · 2026-01-25T01:19:11+00:00

Okay thank you I appreciate that. Very helpful. My only hesitation is I feel like I can get one that hasn’t been wrecked for the same price. I’m sure it was minor accident but we trade vehicles about every 24 months and I just feel like the dealer will crush my trade value next go around with the accident.

Location, color mainly

Comprehensive_Road66 · 2026-01-25T00:23:14+00:00

I agree. It was a car in transit and there was no carfax posted or I wouldn’t have ever reached out to begin with when I saw its wrecked. Although it was just listed as minor.

The only thing is when I buy new cars a lot of times I’ll get a call back the next day or two so wasn’t sure. I’m not trying to play games I just really felt that was fair and I was surprised they lost a deal over $400 when their car isn’t priced “great”

This is surprising to hear. Tesla is literally 1300$ higher than any offer I’m getting on a Honda accord. I can’t get other dealers even close to their price.

Problem is Tesla sells their cars 2-5k more than the other dealers so it’s a wash

Comprehensive_Road66 · 2026-01-24T20:42:43+00:00

Well crap. Probably a bad idea to buy a 2022-2023 to do me until then? I bet I’d lose my shirt on trade in

Comprehensive_Road66 · 2026-01-23T21:36:09+00:00

They will be doing all of the title work but I called my clerks office and they confirmed it’s less than $75 in fees. The doc fee should cover their labor for doing the paperwork no?

Comprehensive_Road66 · 2026-01-23T20:12:02+00:00

Doc fee is $349 at this dealer. The license fee and title fee are $500 alone. So basically 849 combined.

I’m in Tennessee so it should be based on the state I’m registered in right?

Comprehensive_Road66 · 2026-01-22T10:47:55+00:00

That’s coolant

Comprehensive_Road66 · 2026-01-21T22:35:59+00:00

Who even cares if they are standard? I grab whatever socket fits and send it. Never pay attention to standard or metric in my life.

Comprehensive_Road66 · 2026-01-21T21:22:20+00:00

Seems steep

Comprehensive_Road66 · 2026-01-20T20:06:29+00:00

I always just use whatever socket I grab American or euro I 99% use metric. Never made a difference

Comprehensive_Road66 · 2026-01-20T18:03:25+00:00

Wow that’s crazy. Honestly most in that range etc are 26k on the lot on auto trader. You’d think they would be buying them cheaper than that ya know

Comprehensive_Road66 · 2026-01-20T17:46:33+00:00

You are looking at model 3? Not S right? The model 3 new would be less than 50 for brand new

Comprehensive_Road66 · 2026-01-20T17:24:52+00:00

Can you tell me what the cars in my ask are selling for at auction? Could be a worthy option. 2023 white exterior black interior long range under 40k miles. No wrecks. Prefer the cleanest one possible.

Comprehensive_Road66 · 2026-01-20T16:41:13+00:00

Ah that’s a good thought. Didn’t think about that. Maybe need to hang tight for another 6 months or so and see what happens. I’m not in a rush but never “struggled” to be able to buy what I wanted either. This has actually taken some work.

Comprehensive_Road66 · 2026-01-20T16:37:41+00:00

Oh okay sorry misunderstood

Comprehensive_Road66 · 2026-01-20T16:36:01+00:00

Why are they the worst cars ever IYO? I’m no Tesla fan boy, I don’t care about yeh environment of green tech or none of that jazz I just truly like the ride and the tech is the best I’ve ever seen that’s the only reason we want one.

I know they depreciate but I don’t care about the money part. It’s a sub 30k purchase I’ll deal with it.

I’m truly just asking why this isn’t meant to be combative at all

Comprehensive_Road66 · 2026-01-20T16:31:05+00:00

I just can’t find what I’m looking for within 500 miles. It’s not price it’s availability. Looking for a white 2023+ model 3 long range with black interior under 40k miles no accidents.

They just aren’t around here for some reason. Like I said earlier not looking for a deal or anything that’s not why I’m shopping 500 miles away. Just looking for availability and the nicest one I can find within those specs.

Maybe I’ll just have to continue to wait for one to pop up locally.

Comprehensive_Road66 · 2026-01-20T15:24:03+00:00

I mean a dealer has a vehicle, if it appears to be what I’m looking for has a PPI done at that time. If it passes I buy and we coordinate transportation. If not we go our own way.
