You just hate the fact that your car lost 20k value so quickly because of Tesla's price change. I would rather hate the inflation due to Covid pandemic. We all lost 20% value of everything we own because of the inflation. Your car is just one of them.

I rather not talk or comment about inflation, covid and what it could be or what it could have been. But 100k vehicle at $20k loss is normal. But $40k lost due to the current price drop isn’t normal.

Same thing happened to me. I bought mine in May of 23 and 3 months later the price dropped 40 THOUSAND dollars!! I have the same exact set up as you but mine is white. I love it! Minus that price drop LOL . How unfortunate for us!

Hey Ivan thanks for the quick review. I'm still waiting for ours to be delivered, and I also chose the black exterior. Any thoughts on the paint? Was it easy to get swirl marks/minor scratches? Considering getting some PPF right after delivery.

@Life_of_IvanPOV

Black is so nice! Clean but yes it will have swirl marks and scratches just like any other color. It will just show a lot more on the black. I would do the PPF right off upon delivery, if you plan on keeping the X long term(5+ years) and if not it’s not worth investing into.

I test drove a Moldel X today. New car with noice from the area you show in your video. It seems that several cars have the same problem and it is quite annoying. I have a Tesla Moldel x from 2017 which I am very happy with, but want to upgrade to a 2023 model. Did Teslax fix car noises in your car? Otherwise, thanks for your video

Thank you! Unfortunately No. I had the vehicle checked 5x since ownership about 6 months ago. It went away the first time, but came back maybe about a month later. Each time Tesla says “it’s on Tesla ON SPEC”. I will make a video of the noise this coming weekend so you can make a better decision if you want to upgrade.

Btw, you mention toro.. im trying to see if i can go that route just because i have model y and i wanna see if its good or bad to jump in..

That will all determine where you live (market place). If you are super attached to your Model Y or any vehicle as the renter could be bad ones, although many good ones in my experience. I did have a hand full of very bad ones and that’s with over 100 renters. So if you’re in love with your car don’t do it. If you want to make money, leverage an item and your ok dealing with random people your good to go.

Thanks for the opinions! How's the cabin noise on highway? And would you pick Model X over fully loaded BMW X5 50e hybrid if you have a choice?

Good morning from FLORIDA! The cabin noise when all the rattles from the corner or floor panels is address or when I first picked it up from delivery is prefect! Over time when the heat melts the glue or something goes loose, you will have vibration noise. Now the other European models they are much better on this as the build quality is much better but they do not have the range miles in comparison to Tesla or lucid. If I had to pick from a X5 which we had a X5 M50 not too long ago, I would still pick the Model X.

The service on BMW if it’s out of warranty the bill is quite high. With a Tesla yes in the beginning usually you will hear all the things you typically don’t hear on a ICE car so you schedule a service. It would be inconvenient for the first 2-8 weeks as you want to make sure you’re buying a vehicle with expectation with its price tag. Tesla you buy a $100k, we would compare it to a BMW M5 or a S63 AMG. It’s tough.

I paid over 65k for my MYLR in 2021 and now you can get one for 45k after the incentive which is nuts. Would I get another MY? Yes! I almost did and then my wife convinced me to get a MXLR instead 😂

The model Y is much louder dude to a few things. I have a Model Y performance with the very thin tires. So we feel and hear the road noise a lot more.

In majority of vehicles depending which ones they don’t. Now I don’t expect Tesla to be one of those things. But when an automaker continuously discounted 3-4x a year of course the previous buyers weeks before or months before even some days before the price drop we take an even bigger hit versus other auto brands. Knowing and understanding the 10-15% hit driving it off the lot is one thing. This is a 25-40% hit right off a brand new discounted car.

What do you mean? It is time to buy because its cheaper than ever, I don’t think it will be ever that low again. Plus that tax rebate helps.
