Price Reduced: $52,999 obo Would like to sell quick before getting it into storage for the winter. Have had two recent interested parties but no official offers yet.

Well stop on in the next time you're in Pittsburgh for vacation, because everyone vacations in Pittsburgh...in the winter...right? :P Seriously, though, if you're in the Northeast for any kind of conference or visiting family drop me a line; I can usually meet up at any time of day on pretty...

Thanks all. I have a couple interested parties, but both are looking at a November timeframe for purchase. No deposits are down yet, so if anyone wants to stop out and give it a test drive please be my guest. :)

Price Reduced: $54,999 The leaves are starting to change. Don't waste another year looking at them through a dirty glass sunroof; enjoy the thrill of going topless this fall!

Let's talk. I could consider holding it with a deposit. PM or call* (412-491-7473) if interested. * In meetings today from 1:00 - 4:30 pm EST; anytime after that is fine.

Price Reduced $55,499 You are getting sleepy...verrrrrry sleeeeeepy...you now believe there is a funny blurb here that makes you want to buy this car. You are now picking up your keyboard and calling me, but then realize that it's a keyboard and not a phone so you are putting the keyboard down...

Price Reduced $56,999 Psst. Hey you. Yeah, you; the guy reading this post. C'mere. I have a bridge for sale. What? You're not interested in that? Okay, well how about I knock another $1,000 off the price of this here Roadster to $56,999? This offer is only good until you walk away from...

Price Reduced: $59,999 Get your new Roadster in time to enjoy the brisk fall weather and beautiful New England forests in Autumn! Okay, technically this isn't New England, but "Northeast forests in Autumn" just doesn't roll off the tongue the same way...

I don't believe so. I'm not familiar with the CAN adapter. I have three cables: standard 110v wall outlet 220v wall outlet What I believe is a J1772 adapter These met every charging need I ever had, other than using the superchargers. Is the CAN adapter for hooking up to them? If your win...

Lol, thanks. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. I think I may be the only 2.5 for sale in the US right now. If even 1 in a million people were interested I'd have to beat off hundreds of them with a pitchfork...or Bessy, my mud encrusted shovel that I introduce all my daughters' boyfriends...

Car is still for sale. Recently washed and waxed and available for a test drive; all buyers welcome, whether you're ready to pull the trigger or just getting started on the process.

This sounds like a great idea to me, one I was considering stealing for my own Roadster if you don't mind. But I also see SageBrush' point about the warranty limit vs cost of actual battery replacement. I'd love it if you could post back here if you do decide to try this, so we can all learn...

Reducing the price again to try to get things moving. Would love to get the money freed up to consolidate my financing. Great time to buy so you can enjoy it for the entirety of the 2017 driving season! Price Reduced: $65,000 obo

I know Tesla didn't do model years, and instead did revisions (1.5, 2.0, and 2.5). However, bluebooks, auto-sale websites, etc, all work off of model year. So it would be helpful to know what I can list my car as. My car is a 2.5 with a construction date in December of 2010. I believe the...

It's not as high as some babied, weekend cars, but the last two 2.5s that I saw reporting a CAC were as low as 130 or under, and that's with 23k and 35k miles. Given my 51k miles I think 130 is pretty good. That said, I'm always open to offers; looking for another Roadster? ;) I've...

Thanks all; managed to get my CAC. It's reporting as just under 131. That's a good point and I did consider that. On the other hand, I'm paying out over $450/month in interest (it was over 5 years old when I bought it), which is a lot. If I sell it and purchase something newer and cheaper I...

Thanks for the suggestion. Is there any way to get the CAC without OVMS? My OVMS on H20 wireless stopped working over the winter, and I'm not sure why; I'm wondering if H20 pulled an AT&T and stopped supporting OVMS. I have my CAC from an OVMS text from just before I took it in for service...

This is exactly true. When I set out to sell the car I was not in any real hurry, and so I decided that I would leverage my patience and list it at what I considered a more reasonable asking price, rather than a "must sell now" price. As my patience wears down, I'll let my price wear down as...

I've listed my car for sale on TMC, Craigslist, Cars.com, AutoTrader.com, and CarGurus.com. I would love to get some more exposure, especially now that the weather is turning nice again, and ran across DupontRegistry.com. However, the cost of listing it there is twice what AutoTrader charges...

Still for sale. Took it out for a few times when we had nice weather and the salt was washed off the roads; just a blast to drive. I'm going to miss it. Perfect time for someone to take the leap and have it for a complete spring/summer season! Price Reduced: $67,499 obo

I'm not sure what the policies are on bumping, but the car is still for sale and just coming out of its winter slumber; hopefully the last of the salt washed off the roads with last night's rains so I can take her out when we finally see some sun. :) Had a few inquiries, but only one serious...

Still for sale; great time to start the purchase process so you're ready to enjoy the spring when it arrives! Price Reduced: $69,999 obo

I think so. Almost all of the Roadsters that I've seen listed for sale are in California. So far I've received three responses that were interested in my car. One was through the Tesla Service Center in Cleveland, one was from Virginia, and one was from Washington. So 33% of the responses...

Good suggestion. I just listed my car on Craigslist. It'll be interesting to see if it garners any interest. I wouldn't have expected it to as you usually need to go pretty far outside your area to find a Roadster, making CL too hard to search due to its local nature I would think. I tried...

I was going to post this same question. I've had mine up for sale for two months or so with some interest, but nothing serious yet. I know it's not the optimal time of year to sell and it takes a while to find a buyer in any case, but I'd hate to miss a potential interested party if it can be...

Price Reduced: $72,000 obo Is it possible to edit the original thread? I can't find a button for it.

2010 Tesla Roadster 2.5, VIN 5YJRE1A1XA1001159. Red exterior with beige interior. 50,770 miles. All scheduled maintenance done; scheduled for annual service on Oct 23rd, when it will be in Cleveland. Garage kept and well taken care of. Title in hand. Located in Canonsburg, about 15 miles...

Thank you for that; I'll go down and try again. There's a rim that's part of the dash (1), then a space, then a plastic ring (2), then a small space, and then the grill (3). I was placing a wedge between (1) and (2) and trying to lift out (2). I'm reading your response as saying I should...

Also, is anyone able to provide details on how to remove the factory grills? All of the threads I've seen simply refer to "removing" them, or "prying them off". I tried using a small flathead screwdriver but I was making no progress and damaging the dash around the grill. I tried using a...

Thank you all for the responses. I remember seeing that one when I searched months ago but somehow missed it this time. Thanks; that's a great help. I considered doing that, but it looks like half of the work is just getting the dang covers off up front; and the adapter ring looks pretty easy...

I'd like to replace the entire stereo system in my Roadster 2.5, but that's a financial impossibility now. So I'm thinking of just putting Morel Maximo 5.25" components in the front and Morel 4" in the back, hoping to improve the sound quality enough to listen to it. I was wandering if anyone...

I often wondered the same thing when looking for one to purchase. Then I finally bought my Roadster about a year ago, and in that time have put some 2500 miles on it. The thing is, it's my primary car but I just don't have many places to drive to. Around the time I bought it I transitioned to...

Wow, much lower than I thought. Thanks.

With some of the recent buzz surrounding the Model S and how it's supposed to have a higher percentage of American made parts than any other car once the Gigafactory goes live, I started wondering about the Roadster. Unfortunately, any sort of number has been incredibly difficult to find. I...

I may have just had bad luck so far, and I hope my experience changes for this summer. It could be a mileage thing too; I bought mine with 47k miles, and am just over 49k now. Yes, very true if trying to give the car an objective rating in its' class. But as the OP is considering switching...

I’ve been an F-body guy most of my life, and my last car was a 2011 Mustang, as I’ve needed those back seats for the kids until recently. My parents have owned six new Corvettes since 1992, when I was only 12 years old. So I’m familiar with how manufacturers like Chevy treat their owners. I...

I agree with what ecarfan said. I'd also add that you will be out of warranty (as I believe the CPO program for Roadsters is gone), and repairs will be costly. And others may disagree, but I'd also go so far as to say repairs will be required often, and you have no choice about where to get...

I purchased a Roadster 2.5 last fall and my warranty runs out July 31st of this year. I just found out that because I am not the original owner I cannot extend it, which concerns me. Since I've had the car I've had error messages and issues more often than not. I'm sure others are in the same...

Everyone is different and I'd love to see a study on this, as my anecdotal experience (family, friends, co-workers I showed it to last week) has been completely opposite. Any idea if Tesla did any market research like this that's publicly available? I disagree. Yearly Camaro and Mustang sales...

My first thought when looking at the pictures posted to this thread (other than the Lotus concept) was "boringmobile". I also can't really tell any of them apart. I think if Tesla continues down this path they're going to lose a lot of excitement. I recently got a Model S loaner and brought...

It's certainly not sitting in the garage; I take it out almost every day. But I still want to keep it looking as nice as possible. It's possible to keep a car nearly pristine for many years (at least until you're sitting in a grocery store and someone let's their buggy run across the entire...

When I first picked up my Roadster one of the first things I noticed was the UI design of the trunk, specifically the closing process. I was brought up to see touching car paint as almost blasphemous (figuratively, but it really is a very strong negative association). I cringe every time I...

Did you ever have a chance to take a few pictures? I'd love to see what this looks like.
