I go to quite a few car shows with my Roadster and I like to have a sign that helps answer the many questions people always have about the car. My old sign was getting pretty run down, so I just ordered a new one. I'm pretty happy with how this turned out. If anyone is interested, the...

Elon just tweeted again about the new Roadster. His tweet stating that it will be a true convertible. This is all great, and got my heart beating quickly, but it raises a few questions. First, would most Roadster owners be interested in trading in their existing car for the new one (assuming...

I know, for a lot of us, a big motivating factor in owning a Tesla Roadster is just how rare the vehicle is. In fact, when I bought mine earlier this year, I had never seen one in real-life, only photographs. Once I got my car and took it in to be serviced, Tesla told me that I owned just one...

So, I'm dealing with my first real issue since I got my roadster. I paid about an extra 10 grand specifically so I would have the 'sport' edition with the additional horsepower and torque. It turns out, performance mode has pretty much never worked since I got it. The console shows the text...

When I bought my Roadster is came with the carbon fiber hardtop roof. This isn't something I actually have any use for, since I will never drive my car in winter and pretty much only drive it anywhere with the top down. It was just taking up space in my garage. A few weeks ago a friend of...

I searched the various brake threads on this forum, but I couldn't find an answer to this question. The Roadster is pretty sexy looking to begin with but the one thing I think would really make my car pop is some red brake calipers to accent my Fusion Red Roadster Sport. Can anyone recommend a...

I guess we have a possible answer. Someone just sold a Tesla Roadster Sport with over 76,000 miles on it! The answer..apparently...$47,700. So, put that in your pipe and smoke it. Drive the crap out of your Roadster, run it into the ground, and that appears to be the price floor. Tesla...

Since I've only owned my Roadster for about two weeks, I don't yet have any experience about reaching close to the maximum range. However, this Saturday, I want to drive it 140 miles (70 miles each way) with zero chance of being able to charge it along the way. My car just had it's annual...

So, I've had my Roadster for about two weeks and have been really enjoying it. But, just two weeks in, I find myself in a situation with it. Here's what happened. Last night I went out to a restaurant, and I locked the car before I went in. When I came out, and hit the key fob to unlock it...

I just dropped of my brand new (to me) Roadster for its annual service and, apparently, the toolkit which comes with the car is missing. I spoke to the previous owner and he never had it either. The Tesla service center (St. Louis) doesn't have a toolkit either and cannot remove my wheels to...

I have a great mechanic who has worked on all of my cars (Ferrari, Alfa Romeo, NSX, Porsche, BMW, etc.) I realize that for anything related to the electronic systems on my Roadster I have to take it to Tesla. However, if it needs any normal general car work; tires, brakes, suspension, is there...

I've noticed that some Roadsters have the shark gills in the front and some don't, going all of the way back to the 2008 models. Was this just some sort of styling option that buyers got to choose from?

I have been doing a fair amount of research on the Tesla Roadster and I'm now almost completely certain that it is going to be the next car I buy. I really only have one big concern, one that I'm hoping owners could help answer for me. The thing is, I have never actually even seen a Tesla...
