I doubt any auto dealer's sales person will gamble to let a customer know that he should not buy the car right now and he should wait for later...they have bonuses to collect, and the faster they move old inventory the better bonuses are.

I thought Tesla doesn't sell through dealers?

edit: I'm absolutely positive I'm missing the joke here

The fact that they 'don't sell through dealers' just means that they are the dealer. All of the usual sales guff still applies.
So that's what I mean - I thought there was no opportunity to haggle for a Tesla - they're a shop and the price is what it is. I thought?
This might be true if you think that all salespeople are scumbags and that the Internet doesn't exist as a source of information on future models.
