I will take a photo tomorrow. Should be 77,3xx miles , 165 ideal mode, 210-220 in range mode (never go there)

maybe I shouldn't. I have regretted the four 911s I sold. But mainly because they all doubled in value (or tripled!)

moved across the bay, so the car sits in maintenance mode in Mill Valley and maybe I drive it up Tam once every two months.. plus two college tuitions.. plus wife says it is too quiet and too flashy and not vintage enough.. and nothing to tinker with.. have six other cars and a motorcycle...

thanks. deleted in that subject at least

The salespeople kept calling them that when they were trying to sell me a new one. They did send out cars to show. Maybe it needs to be deleted :)

7 months 400 miles I think

A few fake ads, but #801 really is in Mill Valley Tesla Roadster Sport Ambassador Car

I loved my very orange until I turned on the lights in the garage and saw the sparkle! gaaaak!

well said. This is part of the reason it is so great in the twisties but also not so great in the boulevards. the route below- 2700 feet in climb over very tight turns under the canopy of redwoods and through the fog and up over the fog, with view of SF, the Pacific, and the bay. Use up your...

I doubt a new roadster will show up in less than four years. (based on previous patterns, and Tesla's needs) I hope it does, as it will make the originals valuable as a collector. If it does show up, it will be a cushy, 2+2, more like a Lexus. I sold my 911 turbo to get the roadster sport as...

I was actually serious about trading. Someone make an offer and take the black sport beauty away. I don't deserve it and I have 24 tons of rock coming to block the garage Saturday morning! It will be in hibernation for a month or more!

I would consider doing it is as a protest! The cost of power from Pacific Graft and Extortion and the cheap fracking gas makes a Tesla Roadster Sport not that much better on energy cost per mile!

The Oldsmobile is now the car to drive with Trump in office and all the fracking! I would be tempted to take a car like this in partial trade on my roadster and then drive this around with a "traded my tesla in for this car!" bumper sticker. I have decided trading is actually not a bad idea...

She is definitely right, and a happy wife is an easy life! But one strategy you could try is that your choice possibly avoids the acquisition of a sporty mid life crisis car for you.

Fewer steps when you attempt to drive away stopped by the error message :) I think it is for driver convenience if you install he charger on that side. In my case it was perfect as the I3 is on the other side so the garage can either have both in the middle or one on each side of the garage.

Love the i3. You can do more nav from your couch than the model s. It seems less pretentious. It drives more like an old Porcshe, and less like a "sponge car" - real world range is 65-75 miles. Newer models have a longer range. The range extender is cheating :)

I have seen a lot of EV 914s - fun cars. With videos like this, I fear people will start stealing these as during the boom of catalytic converter thefts for sale to recyclers for the platinum, palladium, rhodium or gold for $50-$200

The guys in Pick Your Part wrecking yards pulling parts to put a 1970s Honda back on the road, should also get a subsidy, IMO. Limiting the carbon footprint of manufacturing and reducing waste. Also, low income people find it challenging to afford a Leaf, i3, Tesla, etc.

and these have been getting good reviews. it would be nice to try a set - $15 each NEW TPMS Tire Pressure Sensor Fit Opel Astra Cascada Ampera Zafira etc. 13348393 | eBay

Here is a very amusing fix from the Lotus board: "Here's my TPMS fix. I decided not to epoxy the sensors in the wheels as suggested. I took a piece of 3" PVC pipe and drilled a hole for one of the sensors at the half way point of the tube. I then mounted that sensor in the tube with the stem...

funny, that has never happened to me before (maybe to others, I have owned it less than a year) . Similar car but different numbers. I have seen a dozens of those for 911s cars, 356 cars. Thank you DeedWest for pointing it out!

I have owned a few Porsche 911s (67 911s, 86 911, 72 S, X50 Turbo), Elise a 914, and RX7, and two roadsters. The Elise was like a kit car, The X50 Turbo was far more comfortable than the Roadster, but I sold it to get a second roadster. The history of the roadster and the effortless...

of course both charger cables- not sure what I forgot

So February 14? I so desperately want t-want to go within viewing range, but I will be in London. I binged-watched the NG docu/drama series. I would have loved to be there, especially at 2:10 in the video It feels like 1969 gain and it is great!

@Jeffgtx .. It has the one top . Options include Xenons, keyless entry, premium 2-tone leather, forged wheels, seat heat paint protection at the maximum,new Advan AD07 tires, two keys. Original nav.radio unit. Adding photos now

thank you, Tech is fantastic, batteries options will only get better. These cars will be amazing in 10 years with the new denser, lighter battery tech. It would be fun to get one to 500K miles one day. I think the motor will last a million after some bearing changes at 400K

77,289 Miles $52,500 black over camel. Charges to ~220 in range and ~167 in normal. San Francisco. This is my second roadster. It was suffering after I sold the first one, and then I had to have a sport! I am convinced the sports and the signatures will be very collectible. But who knows how...

Woops I am a retard - didn't see the "Want to Buy" section !

sorry - it should say - WANTED - ROADSTER Sport

I am so bummed I sold my orange 2010. I am borrowing as much as I can and buying whatever I can. These will be the 1973 Porsche 911RS of the years 2020. It took 40 years for the RS cars to pass $1 Million but now the collector car market has been established and the roadsters are THE car that...

6 guy getting in and out of a lotus elise. - YouTube 90 year old getting in and out of Lotus Elise! - YouTube Elise: Tesla: - - - Updated - - - yes Orange is my favorite!

I bought mine unseen, but had test driven one years before and had been looking ever since, until finally finding one! You might try to see if you fit in a Lotus Elise. I am 6'-3" and 220 #. The Tesla has a lower sill height and better seating. I can drive the Elise, but the seat is a little...

that 73.5 would have been a great trade! I am convinced these roadster will be great long term investments, but perhaps not like a 73 RS :) It will need a new custodian whether it be owner or foster parent/

elevation change of 9,000 feet, climb of ~11,000 feet as you repeat some of the climb. 2800 # with two passengers, 30,800,000 foot pounds, which is 11.6 kilowatt hours to lift the car that much (if not accelerating) , and then maybe some relief from the drive down the multiple hills and then...

yes, sadly a sudden change in plans and a move to a new city forces a sale. Wanting to pass it along at cost to a new custodian. Plan B is to put it in storage somewhere in the Bay Area for two years.

I think just the opposite would be great as well. A 100 mile range Roadster weighing 500 pounds less would be fantastic. We do fine with the 68 mile range i3. But academic as we had a sudden change in housing situation and must pass on the recently acquired very orange 2.0 car to a new home at...

sadly, we were shocked with pouring rain just 30 miles NW of Fremont, until 10. It was very kind of Spiderguy to organize this event and would have been fun.

anyone know what "special tool" is required to do a reset of the TPMS control module? A Telsa tech says they have been replacing them and they are crazy expensive out of warranty, but then I read here about the reset requiring a special "tool. "

Ended up just under 1800 and enclosed. Pleasantly surprised. I am shocked at how well the prior owner took care of the car. The risk and all of the stress paid off.

thank you. It should be here Friday or Saturday. Changed the pickup and destination to get it to 1500.

the emails keep coming: It is still for sale and I'm willing to sell it for US $57.000. The car is registered on my name, it has 3,800 miles, the title is clear (VIN 5YJRE1A38A1000996- no lien, accident free) also it drives and runs great. It is located in Houston, TX and I'm selling it...

A new method came up yesterday - a very cheap low mileage roadster showed up on cars.com, autotrader, by someone hacking a dealer's web site so it was also on the dealer's private web site on their domain a car sold earlier on ebay http://www.ebay.com/itm/Tesla-Roadster-Immaculate-/221787525144...

thanks for that heads-up adiggs and thanks Curt for the referral - I have never had a good experience with a shipping broker. Now I have - thank you. I would highly recommend her. (Vehicle Shipping Group is the new company name )

I have seen two roadster scams in the last six months. But I have only recently joined here. I have seen that a lot with vintage Porsche 911s. There are a lot of buyers who think they are taking advantage of a widow who does not know that the cars have quadrupled in value in the last ten...

thank you very much - she is great - new number is 480-360-1261 apparently East to West is $450 more than West to East but trying open uncovered to see if she can get the business anyway

I am moving an East Coast car to California. Looking for more leads, and to help others. I have helped others with two cars, and shipped a couple of ancient 911s via uship in the past. Mostly it is brokers but occasionally you get lucky and get an actual shipper. If you are really lucky...

I am sorry FutureOwner. I have been in your position before. I am the buyer near San Francisco. I was bidding since two days ago. Definitely not a dealer, although I will eventually beselling a beloved, rapidly appreciating vintage 911 to help fill the hole in the account. I won two Teslas...
