    Any reason not to leave roadster plugged into 120v outlet?

    When using a 110-125v outlet and charging at 15 amps, be sure it is a 20 amp outlet and not just 15. They are designed to run continuously at 80%, not 100%. If it is a 15 amp outlet, set the car to limit the charge at 12 amps using the display. Otherwise you could melt the outlet, or worse. You...

    Today's Roadster Orphan

    My vote is the rears should be swapped. 2.5s swoop backwards, 1.5s chop forwards. But in all honesty my 1.5 has them mounted the wrong direction.

    Help!!! Girlfriend is on the road in #410 and gets Charging Aborted: Service Required

    I did see the message twice while the pump was still circulating coolant and would charge, order a new pump, and the third time the message displayed, the pump was no longer circulating and it would not charge.

    Help!!! Girlfriend is on the road in #410 and gets Charging Aborted: Service Required

    It's interesting that id:1425 displayed a different message compared to what I have seen on my 1.5. But a new water pump took care of it and I have not had the message again. The pump is readily available, manufactured by Bosch, and typically used for air/water intercooler applications...

    Roadster Value: Collectibility, Originality, Rebuilt Roadsters and potential for Continuation Cars?

    The article features images of a twilight blue 2.0 sport, with carbon hood and rear spolier, and executive white/grey interior. Any guesses @TEG @DeedWest?

    Roadster Value: Collectibility, Originality, Rebuilt Roadsters and potential for Continuation Cars?

    I recently switched to Hagerty in light of the recent roadster loss at Gruber and while browsing this month's edition of Hagerty Drovers Club magazine came across the attached page highlighting our cars. The top of the page claims the values went up 8% this year. They show the signature 100 to...

    Charging problem

    Zooming in, looks like it says 1A/12A. I dont know if that is what the car is trying to do automatically or if he set the limit at the pre-charge screen. I think when you set a limit it displays that limit number in red.

    Charging problem

    When i get an extension cord error, the car is actually still charging. I'd have to look back and see if it is the exact same error code. Try dismissing the message, the car might actually still be charging.

    Yellow 2010 Roadster sport stolen from Converse Texas

    #683 went to auction today. I wasn't able to watch live, so I'm not sure how it went. Hopefully someone will bring it back to life. Did anyone on here pick it up?

    #642 sold on BAT for $45k with all the carbon fiber options, only 4k miles, and a range charge of 230 ideal miles. #669 sold for $44.5k on ebay with 39k miles. Both were 2010 sports. That's either two really good deals today, or prices have continued to decline.

    The price has dropped from $75k to $50k on the dealer site and it is now listed on ebay with a buy it now at $50k as well. I think a reasonable price would be around $60k, so I think you are in a better spot now. I don't know if they are tired of looking at it in their showroom or if there is...

    Selling Red Roadster 2008

    Sounds like a well kept car. Which interior color(s)? I think most any look good with red, but the rally red and black is my personal favorite.

    I went and looked at 1250 on 25 January at a used dealership in Scottsdale,AZ. They had just bought it at an auction a week prior. The car had the CF top on it and they had the soft top as well as a bag full of charging adaptors. The paint looked like it needed some love. Maybe it's because it's...

    Looks like the car is indeed located in Hawaii considering the license plate, and as your username suggests. The window sticker provided indicates #660. Both of these are questions someone may inevitably ask. I don't know that a 3.0 is exactly in the budget, but that range sure is beautiful...
