Most other car prices are "manipulated" on a minute-by-minute basis, insofar as pricing is different for each customer, based on their their willingness to go hard in negotiation, manufacturer incentives, demand levels, stock levels, finance packages, and the current mood of the dealership principal.
The difference with Tesla is that their current "best price" is published out in the open.
That can be true, but at least in the case of Ford's EVs, many (maybe even most, for a while) of us did not really negotiate with the dealer, the price came from Ford. The dealer wasn't even allowed to negotiate, in fact.
