Buying a tesla by selling ioniq5
Hello blind family, I booked a tesla model Y in February by depositing $250. When i booked, the selling price for my tesla was $63k.They told me that it will be delivered sometime in October. Since then the prices of teslas have increased and now the same model Y is being booked at $70k. However since i booked it at a lower price point, Tesla is honoring the price i booked it for. Meanwhile in March i got tired of waiting and bought a ioniq5 for 52k(on-road). It's SEL but only RWD. As it is approaching October. I am considering selling my ioniq and getting the model Y. I am thinking any loss that i will have on the ioniq, will be compensated from the $7k discount i am getting on tesla. I am also eligible for $7.5k federal EV credit. Questions for you guys: 1. Any problems in getting EV credit if you have already sold the car. Has anyone done this before? 2. Ioniq is still on loan#misc . If i want to sell it myself, how do i do it. 3. Does this plan even make any financial sense? I am seeing very high prices for used ioniq 5 on CarGurus with about the same mileage. However they have been there for a while. Dunno how long it takes to sell one of these cars. Thank you, TC:160k YOY:10
Ioniq5 is better than Model Y. Why sell for an over priced car? Going from ioniq5 to Y, you will be disappointed about Ride Quality and bland/cheap interiors.
If in Bay Area, I can take this off your hands :) Been looking for one for a while. DM if interested.
Donโt you have to keep the ioniq till end of the year to claim tax credits? Probably youโll have to sell it for atleast $7.5k less just to compensate buyerโs tax credits. Any sane buyer will understand that they donโt get tax credits if theyโre buying it used. On other hand, trade it in with Tesla, they pay competitive prices.
