Aloha, It appears that our neighbor island customers will now have to pick up their new Tesla in Honolulu and deliver the car to Young Brothers for shipment. This has been communicated to a number of customers/potential customers on the Big Island. This is apparently a policy that has taken...

It's now available on Tesla.com. I wonder if it is different from the original CHAdeMO adapter or if enablement was via a s/w update. Model 3

Hi - It appears that you can purchase the lights only and these install on your car's existing enclosure. Or you can purchase lights already installed on an enclosure that they provide. I'm not sure why one would purchase just the enclosure.

The eBay listing has more images. You can also ask the seller of the item. From the images, they look a really light grey. It's interesting that the rear carbon fiber (?) is exposed. I thought the entire rear was also in leather.

This one just showed up on eBay: 2008 Roadster

Count me in.

Do you have the rear passenger-side door available?

Hi Jeff, Electricity is more costly here. However, even at the current rate, the cost is at parity or less than a comparable conventional gas-powered car. It does make sense to install solar - nothing beats being able to power your vehicle with solar. State and Fed tax incentives also make it...

Sending a PM. I'd like to take these.

Aloha, This is for Big Island owners primarily but I'm curious about other Hawaii owner experiences. One of our owners has been experiencing an issue related to EAP - his Model 3 has not displayed the speed limit since he's owned the car. Other Model 3 owners have shared concerns about the...

Hi, I'll raise this with our Big Island owners. Noel

I totally agree with the service expectations - they are not unreasonable and I'm sure that Tesla aims to improve in this area. If they had known ahead (and they should have), a call to alert you and to make alternative arrangements would have been ideal. I speculate that the mad delivery rush...

We had a similar experience with our Model X - a day after it was delivered, we noticed a dimple/dent in the door frame and a slight misalignment of the falcon wing doors. We contacted Tesla and they promptly arranged for a ranger and a dent remover to address the issues. The car was perfect...

Congratulations! That's a sweet car.

For Tesla owners on the Big Island: we will be hosting a couple of events to celebrate National Drive Electric Week. Please let me know if you'd like to participate or would like more information. It will be great to have a nice contingent of Teslas at the events. For more information visit...

There are instructions in the NOV 2017 Gruber Newsletter. You'll need to access the diagnostic screen and press 'ESS'. CAC is one of the values displayed.

May I ask - what did you replace them with?

There are a few good deals on eBay. Check out the listings there. I saw a really nice 2.5 sport with the R80 upgrade for around $75k.

Very nice 2.5 Sport R80 at a great price.

Congrats! Welcome to the family.

This should provide some utility for owners who are lending out their cars and want to control access to all of the performance. This is a welcome feature.

I should have explained my recommondation. We had an unfortunate incident where an unattended Home Depot flatbed cart rolled up against our Model X and put a dent on the rear fender (on the edge). Based on a successful dent repair that a Telsa Ranger arranged for the car (it was delivered with...

You should be able to get a dent repair service to address the damage. Look for someone with experience with Telsas. I'd try that before a body shop.

Please let me know if it is still available. What color?

We recently hosted a Coffee and EV meet-up in Hawi. One of our members brought a Model 3 - one of the first on the island. Pictures from our event can be found at: Coffee and EV Meet-Up at Kohala Coffee Mill Recap Next up - Earth Day Fair at UH Hilo (April 20, 9am-2pm). We'll bring a Model S...

Nanette - thanks for the referral! acoloradan - I assume you're in touch with Lorn. He's a great guy and should be able to address your questions about ownership in Puna. We have at least 3 other Tesla owners in that area (2 in HPP and 1 in Beaches). As you should know by now, there are...

This might help. There are 10h left on the auction. I hope it works out. Sorry to hear of your accident. TESLA ROADSTER REAR BUMPER 2008 2009 2010 BLUE OEM 06-000540-00AA | eBay

Commission someone to make garage clocks... ;-)

This was a bargain at 62k (at the AZ dealer). In my opinion it's worth north of 75k given condition, mileage, CF package, etc... A neighbor of mine was interested but missed it.

It is apparently compatible. Lotus Garage has the parts available. British Racing Group has as well. I inquired about the hard tops (they have several options avalilable that are compatible with the Roadster. The Elise soft top should fit - search this forum for 'soft top elise' and you'll find...

Welcome to the Roadster family!

Excellent. Try eBay. If you don't find it, place a saved search so you get notified when something comes up. You can also place a WTB on the various Tesla and Tesla Roadster forums and on FB. I wish you the best. Noel

Visit/join the Tesla Roadster Owners Group in Facebook and reach out to Carl Medlock. He may have what you're looking for.

Welcome to the gang!

They deal with both private and dealers. Sorry - I'm not sure about the pre-paid battery warranty. I'd reach out to Tesla for that one.

Hi, I used Woodside Credit - they deal with collectibles and are able to finance the Roadster. Contact Antonio Saba and tell him I referred you. Noel Classic Car Financing |Collector Car Financing |Exotic Car Financing| Antique car financing

Aloha Big Island Tesla owners - the Big Island EV Association is hosting our February Coffee and EV meet-up at the Kona Coffee and Tea this Saturday (FEB3). If you're in the area, join us. We're attempting to host monthly meet-ups to get the EV message out and to facilitate knowledge sharing...

Excellent - looks like we'll start seeing the 3 in no time!!!

It's a 2.5 front-end.

We got our opportuntity to configure too. I have a video snippet of the configurator experience and the current options. I can share here if it would be helpful. This is exciting news for Hawaii (and EV adoption in general). Decisions.... decisions... Go TESLA!!!

Count me in. Thanks for making this happen, Dave.

I'm working with Tesla to get our roadster to show up in my Tesla Account page. Glad to see an example here.

Yes! Another Roadster in the state. Glad to see it added to our count.
