RWD base price is $33,200 (after incentives), even less than the long quoted base price of $35k, though presumably incentives on the standard battery Model 3 (not yet available) would make the after incentives price even cheaper.

Only if you get the car before December 31st. With a 6-10 week turnaround, you'd have to buy it now and hope you're lucky, but cutting it close either way. And even then, it's not 33200, it's actually $37500 because of "potential gas savings".

From Jan 1 to Jun 30, it'll be $41240 and from Jul 1 to Dec 31 2019, it'll be $43125. As of Jan 1 2020, there'll be no more federal tax credit and the car will be full price at $45000.

...after tax incentives and "gas savings"
No. It is impossible, even with incentives to get it for under $37,500 - because that base price includes "gas savings" that are not in any way an actual discount on purchase price.
