In general, Tesla doesn't produce enough inventory to dilute the market on other models.

I respect your opinion as you live the business day to day.

From the surveys I've read, it does seem Tesla is siphoning away some new-car sales from luxury marques, especially BMW/Audi/M-B. That being the case, this would logically affect used car values of those same brands. Hot new, hot used; cold new, cold used.

Lots of folks mentioning traditional (bad) depreciation of German stuff, this article points out that now its worse.
