I’m not following this discussion I guess

I don’t understand any interpretation of the Foundation pricing or the credit that would cause someone to think the Foundation AWD at $100K would qualify

the base MSRP is $10 under the limit

A single $11 accessory would bust the limit

Take for example the Foundation’s premium wheels and AT tires, which are not included in the base $79K MSRP.

Meanwhile, the price for a special edition *is* included in MSRP, because all these things are included at delivery (special badging, special interior colors, etc.).

Even if there are things one might argue shouldn’t be in MSRP (eg paid up connectivity), what *is* included in Foundation that *is* attached at delivery is >$11

Finally, note that the order pages do not factor in possible federal savings calc - which if they thought might be ever possible, they would include.



First things first, your tax professional

Second things second, you can go check the IRS website for the then-current list of vehicles that are capable of ever qualifying. I don’t think the CT has been added yet. But I haven’t looked in a while Infer fro that what you will.

That said, the date of relevance is the vehicle’s in service date, which generally speaking is the date the customer takes delivery.

Regardless, for reasons noted up above, I don’t understand how one could have any interpretation that a car with an MSRP (that’s what we’re looking at here) of >$90K wouldn’t bust the cap.


Think of it like this: you’re ordering a Raptor, not an F150

You don’t get to ignore the MSRP of the Raptor group of upgrades and badging, etc., and claim the MSRP of an F150

Because on the stated order agreement earlier in this thread the base price is within the limit. The question is like how FSD does not count to the MSRP cap. Would the Foundation series line item option count to the MSRP cap or not.

actually a good question: anyone here that got Foundation offer that ALSO got these $1,000 off another model texts/emails?

I did not get the $1k offer. Just the foundation email.

 

[Jamessmooth007]

Looks like the 7500 tax credit is officially official. Now - does it count toward foundation? ?

Any fresh batch of order emails today or should we lose hope? RN112772xxx, Texas, Existing owner of 2 teslas (not sure if this matters). Hate that they are sending invites not in a fair manner

Would anybody know if the UFSC might be even transferable to the FSCT?

yes

just think of this like a Monroney window sticker

included in the MSRP is the not only the base price (ie the AWD price), but also separate entires for all options or options packages

this Foundation “option” is a special edition
option package

like a Ford Lightning Pro has an option package to add the ER battery and the things that come with it

The items within the package aren’t separately optioned or separately priced, that you can cherry pick to back out (if any could be backed out)





Meanwhile and separately, I’m now convinced (until Tesla clarifies explicitly to the contrary) that there is not paid-up FSD built into the price of the Foundation trims

Trim comes with base AP. It’s capable of accepting FAD later (when it’s available) if you purchase FSD (once it’s available)

No new emails here. Waiting to see if a batch goes out at 9:30pm Central.

Honestly this seems to be the best and simplest explanation. Here’s to hoping you are wrong ?

I think you are correct:
Here is a snippet of my financing doc.
Notice how it’s a package separate from the truck cost.

I was not going to order my foundation series over this but if this qualifies for the tax credit I’m in. Anyone know how to verify for sure if it does or doesn’t?

If that's the case then I'm in as well

[Macgyverfever]

Yea I'm kind of glad I'm #400k in-line right now - I want the beast but not for 120k

 

[Hello4x]

Thinking about this more, if they are planning to open the Foundation deliveries to other states, why wouldn’t they queue them now and hold the additional deposits.

Has anyone confirmed that the 1000 limited editions will only be sold to these states? (Not sure how this has operated in the past)
