Can you fork over 35K to get in front of the 5k plebs?
- toomuchtodo 11y agoThey might have a Signature deposit offering, where the 3 comes fully loaded in return for you fronting most of the vehicle cost upfront. This hasn't been announced yet to my knowledge, but was done for both the S and the X. Sidenote: If you can't afford a $5K deposit for a vehicle, you probably shouldn't be buying a vehicle new.
- jsprogrammer 11y agoHow about putting up the money for the entire run to resell it at a markup to all the people who were willing to put 5K down? Surely they can afford more than 35K if they can let 5K sit around for the opportunity to pay another 30K to get the car when it is actually produced? Would that get me to the front of the line?
- toomuchtodo 11y agoDeposits are non-transferable. If you want to venture down some whacky scam to get around that, I'm sure you could try.
- jsprogrammer 11y agoAh, I mistook your first post as saying you could jump to the front in a previous offering. It seems you were only saying that you might be able to purchase from the more expensive pool. Please accept my apologies.
- toomuchtodo 11y agoNo need to apologize whatsoever! I apologize if my tone came off as abrasive or combative.
- jsprogrammer 11y agoNope, not at all. I just didn't want to be ambiguous.
