    You mean I'm spending all this time looking for a car for you and you didn't grab it last night?????

    Tesla Used Inventory Down 30%?

    5YJSA1E49GF177598 It actually fluctuated between $151,550 and $136,550 three times on the same day (4/20/17), then was gone for just short of two years, relisted on 4/12/19 at $100,200, only to drop over the next month and a half to $88,700. I don't know if it continued after that or was sold...

    WTB- Tesla S P85 / P90D on Westcoast / Norcal...

    Yes, any color but white, so how about Pearl White? I'm the same with white, I don't want to drive a refrigerator, but Pearl White could be fairly nice. A grey interior, which is IMHO a bit of a step up from Black, and the panorama roof, Ap1, This is on the Tesla website, in San Francisco, at...

    Tesla Used Inventory Down 30%?

    The following was posted yesterday (6/6), not disputed from any of the other replies, so it looks like MarkLy will also have to tell Galve2000, who obviously does own a Tesla, "Where do you come up with this nonsense?"

    Tesla Used Inventory Down 30%?

    As I've found Ostrichsak's posts insightful and informative, even just being here a short time he's one who I noticed, so I'll have to clarify that I only focused on the time factor of selling a used car, and I have seen now with low numbers that prices aren't falling much, if any. However...

    Tesla Used Inventory Down 30%?

    According to IGdawgI he/she does own a Tesla, a 30K mile one that's been in the shop three separate times within a month after purchasing it. So you see, MarkLy is right, no need to worry, only $2300. I haven't seen the quote of replacing the Ap1 hardware, but I'm sure that's not very...

    Tesla Used Inventory Down 30%?

    Well, that would be pretty straightforward to answer: IGdawgI said: ↑ Several sitting for quite some time when I was looking. I ended up with tesla used direct on a 85d. Glad I got the warranty. It's been in 3 tines already and it's only been a month. Ap1 hardware replaced, right front...

    Tesla Used Inventory Down 30%?

    I think Ostrichsak is pretty accurate, except for the "sellers market," as in my opinion it is always a buyer's market with Tesla. I'd like one, but I'm not willing to overpay to get it. I know that every day the older models are dropping in value, it is just a waiting game. One thing that I...

    Sep '14 Red Model S 85 - CPO Warranty - 58k

    Very nice. But one thing I ended up not liking about eBay when I sold a vehicle was at the end some jerk came in and bid the price up far beyond what I'd expected to get. It was happening so quickly, and I was trying to block his bidding but couldn't. And then when he won he said he was from...

    2013 Model S85, Drk Blue / Grey Leather, $27k

    I think the dash trim really adds to the interior. I'm wondering if the replacement was done by Tesla or if it was easy enough to DIY.

    WTB: Model S 85D or 90D

    I also found this, although it is for the Model 3 I'm thinking most will be true for the Model S too: Is the dual motor option worth it? Good luck with your search.

    WTB: Model S 85D or 90D

    I'm wondering, is that just because you're in Minnesota with snow? Or is there another reason? If you would accept a 70D, there is one at Tampahybrids with AP1 at $39995. OK, not much under $40K. Probably too far from MN though. Todd, the guy at Tampahybrids is a great guy, honest, and...

    Hoping to join the club

    Is it correct that AP1, with just the one front camera, wouldn't be able to do a lane change to avoid a crash from being sideswiped?

    I thought you had to go from a Prius to a LEAF and THEN to a Tesla! :)

    Hoping to join the club

    A bit more research, and another newbie question. How important is the AP? I know people like it, and I've researched and seen where it has prevented accidents, so paying a bit more for one would then be worth it if one day it prevents a crash. But is AP1 good enough? Is AP2 just light-years...

    New guy in Orlando

    Hello from Bartow. So far I'm not even in the club, so you're several steps ahead of me. Are you on the "south" side of Orlando, relatively closer to Bartow, or much further away on the north end? Good luck with the project!

    We should be expecting used Tesla model S and X prices to go down

    Has there ever been a time when there were 1000 used cars for sale in the U.S.? Also, everything being exactly equal, should I expect to pay about $3000 more buying through Tesla because of the warranty they have as opposed to a private party sale?

    Gray Late 2014 P85D with AP - 20 Month Warranty - Loaded - 60k Miles - $52K

    Wow, it had the special back seat!! I can't find a lot of information about it, but I guess it wasn't offered for very long.

    Rebuilt air suspension

    I'm wondering, would changing them be easier than changing the struts on a car with regular suspension?

    Hoping to join the club

    I've seen some Teslas where the battery has been replaced under warranty. What are the parameters for that? With the LEAF it was fairly straightforward, although Nissan was, in my opinion and several others too, able to distort those parameters by changing the software. I am really hoping to...

    Hoping to join the club

    Thanks so much OPRCE! I appreciate those who help, I tried to do the same long, long ago in the Prius forums. I have come up with a couple more newbie questions. With a LEAF, you can tell with LEAFSpy the actual condition of the battery. It seems people here just go by miles reported at full...

    The agony of deciding on a CPO

    Somewhat in the same dilemma/agony. o_O The information from the members though is extremely helpful, and I hadn't realized about the difference in warranty at over 50K miles, so that is hugely helpful. So my dilemma is: A 2014 Model 85, or a newer 2015 or maybe 2016 Model 70? Based on an...

    Question regarding Buying a Privately Owned Tesla

    OK, I'm also new to Teslas, and have been doing much research, and this forum is a huge help. So maybe I'm mistaken, or it is a technicality that everybody should know, but aren't there Base Teslas (40kw) and some 60kw models that declined the supercharging option when it was purchased?

    TOTAL Newbie - Please be gentle

    The British are also much more polite than over here: "Only minor issues are a slight scuff/knock on the front bumper (quoted £400 to repair) and the wheels could do with a re-furb. I am happy to get these sorted if paying full price or you may wish to haggle." I'm also following in Adrian's...

    Will Tesla ever allow battery upgrades?

    Ok, warning, this is a newbie question, I don't even own a Tesla (yet). One of my considerations is can somebody get a used model 85, and when the batteries are worn out, and the car is that much older, put a new 60kw battery in it instead for a reduced cost? I'm thinking at this point Teslas...

    Hoping to join the club

    Back when I had a 26 mile range with the LEAF, even old ladies were mad, as anything over 40 mph was a "range destroyer" at that point! I have found it interesting though that Tesla chose to have so many little batteries to combine into a pack, I've always been of the opinion the fewer...

    Hoping to join the club

    Thanks so much for the replies, and OPRCE's in depth analysis too! I didn't know there was a 6kw battery heater, doubtful that'll be needed here in Florida though. Is it impossible to tap into those 6kw for driving? I find it interesting too that LEAF owners are coming over to Teslas...

    There is a spectacular cartoon by Gary Larson (Far Side), "All Right, Rusty's In The Club" I'm hoping at some point to join the club too. I am a long-time EV enthusiast, I was even going to convert an old Plymouth TC3 to electric, but unfortunately the car burned! Talk about an event, even...
