    Is this a good choice?

    That's a good price for a facelift/late 2016 90D. Main downside is the mileage, which would only get you a 2 year CPO warranty but to 100k. I recently purchased a late 2015 85D for around the same price, but with less mileage (about 19k). I would say don't worry about the pictures being low...

    Not permitted to drive CPO as part of delivery inspection??

    As an update (I am OP) - I took delivery of the car today. The delivery team was really fantastic. They had the car polished and waiting in the inside showroom (see pic) . It looks immaculate. They had the small scratches repaired at a local body shop before I took delivery. Inside was...

    Ha - good point! But the money is sitting in my checking account earning no interest (I transferred it from HY savings the day after I clicked "buy" - silly me!). I'm also paying for insurance about $180/month... I thought it would take a day or so....

    Not permitted to drive CPO as part of delivery inspection??

    Yeah, so it seems the consensus it that they don't let you drive the car. That's really an unfortunate policy. I certainly wouldn't want to end up with a squeaky rattler. The rest of the car looks so good (nearly new - see pics - actual photos, not the crappy dropbox ones) that I would be...

    Hi All, I'm in the process of purchasing a CPO - er "used" - 2015 Model S. Meaning, I have put down a deposit. The Tesla people are still looking for the title, and I am in a state where I cannot purchase the car without the title. The car has already been transported to the local Tesla...
