End of quarter blowouts

Looking at getting a model y premium. Does everyone think that .99% and zero down is their end of quarter play to increase sales, or is there better incentives on the horizon? If I order in store can I avoid the order fee or any of the fees? Yeah - I’m cheap :)

I believe their 0.99% is the end of quarter play, I believe they've weighed that alongside the other demand levers they're pulling and deemed it to be sufficient to drive sales up to where they want them. If they're still falling short then I anticipate by early next month we'll see a desperate reduction to 0% on all or a further reduction to 0.99% on the Y Performance.

You seem to have put a lot of thought into this. You think there’s any chance of autopilot making a comeback if I just chill for a quarter or so?

I wouldn't say it's impossible, but I wouldn't say it's terribly likely either (especially not in the near term, like next quarter or so). Someday they might have a rough quarter and flip that demand lever again, or they might be repackaging it as something they can sell a subscription to later to help fulfill the terms of ol' Musky's pay package.

I don't think apr will change. Likely, they will add inventory discounts of 1000-3000$

Ordering "in store" is still just ordering through the website on a kiosk. You'll never deal with anyone or anything that can change the fees.
