Hi All,

Just came back from Tesla in Chadstone. The Model Y has a $3000+. price drop. Just started today at lunch time.
Went for a test driver and when I came back, the sales guy said he just received an email confirming a price drop on the Model Y.
Being a true OZBARGAIN guy, I bought one. Took all of 5 mins to order. 2 - 4 month deliver time.
If anyone thinking of getting one, now is a good time before they have massive back orders I guess.

State Driveaway price
VIC $74666
NSW $71757
ACT $71337
NT $73570
QLD $72856
SA $74360
TAS $71303
WA $76337

      More expensive, lower range, less efficient, less features.

    • stingy007 on 06/01/2023 - 19:45

      Who makes their battery? LG Chen? CATL?

      What is the battery chemistry? NMC? LFP?

      These are the questions people should be asking when purchasing an EV

  • inamberclad on 06/01/2023 - 14:52

        Enhanced autopilot is useless but you can add it after you purchase so don't include it in the original purchase

        • inamberclad on 06/01/2023 - 15:38

          enhanced autopilot is still $5K, even as a post purchase addon?

    Are these Tesla cars any good? Meaning are there a lot of common issues with them since they are made in china I was a little concerned.

    • interlocal on 06/01/2023 - 15:03

      The ones we get in AU (made in china) has the same quality as good Korean cars. All of the "Teslas quality is baaaad" are US issue and not related to Chinese-built ones.

        Yer well American cars are not that great either with it comes to quality

          No these are probably better than most German cars of similar price. I mean even Ford Focus is made in Germany now and yet has loads of QC issues. Doesn't mean what it did a decade ago.

      We have loved our model Y. Have done almost 8000kms on it already.

      Tech is fantastic. Build quality was perfect for ours.

      There is a minor rattle above the headliner that i discovered on a really rough road, But haven't heard it since.

    • loksmack on 06/01/2023 - 15:06

      In this case, you WANT the Chinese built one. The quality of the Chinese built cars is much improved over the prior US built cars.

      My 2021 Model 3 (Chinese built) is solid. Way better built than my Subaru.

        I think a lot of the American Tesla problems are from the Fremont factory in California, which Tesla has outgrown. I think the Texas factory will be better.

    My friend picked up a Tesla Y from Tasmania about a month ago and saved quite a bit due to stamp duty exemption to eligible EVs over there. He said there appeared to be adequate stock levels as well as there was no waiting time. Flew over there and took it back on the ferry to Melbourne.

    • Clear on 06/01/2023 - 15:03

      Your friend is right. There was pretty much no waiting list when I purchased mine.

    • Creamsoda on 06/01/2023 - 15:57
      +2

      i thought you'll need a Tasmania drivers license to buy a Tesla Y to qualify for the stamp duty exemption.

      • Sammyboy on 06/01/2023 - 16:55

        His gf lived in Tasmania. But she's been in Melb now for the last year or so… Will have to ask him how that all works

        • Creamsoda on 06/01/2023 - 17:38
          +1

          Then the car would have to be in her name. Again you'll need to have a Tassy driver license to qualify.

          +1

          What if you have a friend in tas and have your driver license address transferred over to his address? Would it be classified as changing your license to that state? OR you would need to do rigorous test all over again with the authority of the local state?
          Thanks

          Update: seems do-able providing you provide utilities bill (like phone) under your name with the different address

    Sharing for context. We ordered our Y last Aug for $72K inc of all fees in NSW. So it's hard to see this as a bargain.

    • inamberclad on 06/01/2023 - 14:56

      • KingUltra on 06/01/2023 - 15:16

        Yes, with a view to wrap, upgrade rims aftermarket.

        • xdigger on 06/01/2023 - 15:21

          What rims are nicer than the extra $2900 20-inch option?

          • KingUltra on 06/01/2023 - 15:50

            @xdigger: Meant to receive around March, so I guess we'll look after that. Also not a car/rims expert. Will be looking to improve the look at a reasonable price.

            • WhatWouldBiggieDo on 06/01/2023 - 18:29

              @KingUltra: I thought about doing aftermarket wheels but I think you will struggle to do it cheaper than the $2500 20" upgrade - even aftermarket 19" wheels with good quality tyres is gong to run you more than $2900. If you can salary package and pay pre-tax the real cost could be closer to $1,000.

      it's a car, not twitter thread. As far is it goes, resale value haven't dropped at all - bought M3 a year ago for 60k, cheapest one with same mileage on carsales is ~68k now.

      • onlinepred on 06/01/2023 - 15:17

        2019 M3's are dipping into the <$55k now. So they are getting cheaper that's for sure.

          Sure, there are no miracles - it would get cheaper over time, just don't expect some drastic differences with ICE car depreciation in first 8 years at least.

    Novated leasing is better value for EVs than buying outright due to the FBT exemptions

    • glenn955 on 06/01/2023 - 15:17

      I couldn't get novated lease to work for me. Couldn't package the electricity (but you can with petrol for ICE cars), vertually no services, Brakes last a long time with 1 pedel driving. There just isn't much to claim pretax. You save the GST but you pay interest on the loan for the term of the lease.

      Ended up just adding it to the home loan (that was around 3% at the time).

      PS - I love it!!! :D

      • xdigger on 06/01/2023 - 15:23

    Put it on a novated lease, with the recent changes to FBT you basically get a 5 year interest free loan on it (probably get it cheaper than outright depending on your lease provider and individual tax rate). Plus all running expenses are discounted by your tax rate.

    • chadleyshe on 06/01/2023 - 15:38

      Can you elaborate?

      • krisspy on 06/01/2023 - 17:03

        You pay using pre-tax salary and not take home pay.

        Eg if your lease + expenses is 10k a year and you're on 47% individual rate.

        Novated lease - lose $10k in pre tax a year, save having to pay $4700 tax on 10k

        Non novated lease - earn $19000 pre-tax, pay $9000 tax, pay $10000 car expenses

    • IMadeYouReadThis on 06/01/2023 - 15:44

      how you get interest free when the novated lease company charge you that for the term of your car.

      • krisspy on 06/01/2023 - 16:55

        Interest free in the sense that the repayments+residual is the same price or less than the outright price.

      There seems to be loads of really average cheapo EVs heading our way this year. Hopefully will get enough of them to move more people to EVs. I'm waiting for second hand Tesla model 3's to get cheaper, more EV's on the market will hopefully bring them down more.
