Dozens of ads within days (photo: screenshot, screenshot, 2nd hand)
After the stories about the raids and the high prices at which used Tesla Model 3 models were sold last year by the original owners, this spectacle is repeating itself these days, this time in the Model S and Model X models, which were first delivered to Israelis in December.
Walla's check shows that as of this morning, the number of ads for the S and X models was 43. This is while the first shipment of the two models delivered last month included, according to the data of the licensing office, 103 Model S models and 10 Model X models. Some of the sellers have already Offer cars that will be delivered to them only this month.
However, the equally interesting data were the prices required for the cars and the high percentage of price reducers - sometimes even in the order of 100 thousand shekels within days.
Considering that in the case of the Model S and Model X, there have been significant price increases since the models opened for order in February 2021, sellers probably still have somewhere to go and still make a profit.

So, with the start of marketing in February 2021, the Model S Long Range was sold for NIS 420,000, while the powerful and extreme Blade version cost NIS 644,000.
Currently, the price of the Blade on the Tesla website is already 825,000 shekels.
The price of the Model X at the time was from NIS 446,000 for the regular version to NIS 644,000 for the Plaid.
These are the prices of the 5-seat versions, where an additional payment was required for the sixth and seventh seats.
Today, on the Tesla website, the price of the Model X, which is offered only in the powerful Blade version, is NIS 848,000.
At the same time, as published in "Walla", Tesla kept the original price for the first orderers.
What allows those quick orderers the option to sell the cars they received after almost two years and at a handsome profit - at least that's the plan.

As mentioned, as of today there are several dozen S and X model cars advertised on the Yad2 website, with the division being 6 X model and all the rest S model.
In the case of the X, all of them are from the powerful Plaid model. The requested price range ranges from NIS 770,000 to LR which has not arrived in Israel yet.
In the powerful versions of the Blade, the price starts from NIS 850,000 and goes up to NIS 999,999 for the 6-seat Blade, also "on paper" and expected to arrive in January.
For those who don't want to wait, there is also one black plaid for NIS 995,000.
Among the 37 ads for the sale of the Model S, five of them do not include a price, those are recommended and should always be ignored.
And among those that do list a price, you can find a white Long Range for which an amount of NIS 538,000 is being requested (after a reduction from the NIS 580,000 it was initially advertised for).
Later on there are cars for NIS 545,000 (the original price of this one was 560,000 and was reduced twice) and another one for NIS 549,000 - also two reductions were made from the ambitious original price of NIS 595,000 when it was first published on December 27.
The prices for the long range versions are up to NIS 679,000

As of the time of writing, one car of the top-end version of the Model S, the Blade, is available at a price of NIS 950,000.
Another interesting figure regarding the reduction rates in the Model S is the price range between the initial one requested and the one in which they are currently advertised and also the car rate from which the owners offset tens of thousands of shekels every few days.
Of the aforementioned 37 cars, 12 show price reductions from the original one they asked for.
These range from NIS 13-15 thousand in milder cases, with changes day after day or even twice a day.
And they also reach 125,000 in one of the cars that is now famous for no price at all.
And there were also those that made the full round - at least one that was originally published at 600 thousand, rose to 620 thousand on the same day and plunged to 570 three days later.
And of course there are also some who raised the price, one of them from NIS 639,000 to NIS 645,600, stating that he is also "flexible" by NIS 5,000.
In another case, the advertiser increased from NIS 579,000 to NIS 640,000 after it had already decreased to NIS 530,000.
Will these cars "fly" like the first Model 3s?
It should be remembered that we are all talking here about transactions of about half a million shekels, twice the prices of the Model 3 at the time, when the financing for the purchase of a car became significantly more expensive in the last year due to the jump in interest rates
