The $35K model doesn't even exist. You can supposedly order it in person at a dealership. You wont receive the car. You'll get some BS runaround and eventually you'll lose interest or you'll buy the actual cheapest model which costs $40k. Elon claims to have delivered several $35k cars as software option locked $40k models. Who TF builds a $40k car and then software locks it to sell it for less?
EVs are great cars that sell themselves. The Tesla engineers have done an incredible job on the car. Elon Musk, unfortunately, seems hell bent on running the company into the ground. People are getting really tired of Tesla's horrible customer service, the constant price fluctuations on the new cars and full self driving options, and most of all, Elon's empty promises.
There is a reason Tesla's stock has absolutely, positively tanked in the past year. Every single automaker has aggressive plans for EVs. Nobody will need to put up with Tesla's BS anymore.
