Happy New Year, Rotary Power :-) Sorry (dernit) to say, I don't have a (fusion red!) Roadster for sale. Your handle makes methink that you're a Wenkel enthusiast, as well. I do have an '88 RX7 Anniversary with ~20K miles garage queen that I bought new that I need to part with. Just taking a...

The CL ad states that fuel=gas.

TEG: Many thanks for bringing this ad and TMC thread to my attention. Very nice piece of detective work on your part, finding the pic that was used in the CL listing, clearly lifted from an old Dietz web ad! I bought Roadster #157 this past April from an exotic dealer in FL. He bought it from...

......or 'taking delivery' on their $1K deposit to shop for the holidays.

Good evening, EVTECH, And thanks for your reply I was at Fairfax service center last week; they researched this and told me Tesla no longer has this item available. Z

Anyone have one of these 'laying around' they'd like to sell?

Hey ecarfan, thanks for your note. Sorry my post is confusing. Thanks First, yes, I'm aware the Roadster accepts a max of 70A Second, the HPWC I'm referring to was manufactured for the Roadster, not the S (see pic) Rather than buying a second wall unit and installing yet another circuit, I'm...

Thanks for the visual, brianman

I generally charge my P85+ at home with a 240V, 50A circuit (which delivers ~40A to the car.) This results in 28-30 miles of range added per hour. I charge my '08 Roadster with a 90A circuit Tesla HPWC (delivers 80A to the car.) Given that the S has dual chargers, I'd expect I could nearly...

The seller's eBay handle is 'Jester' That's certainly understated. Fast forward ~25 years...... Early, low mileage, low VIN, with 'decent' (how much will be decent?) range, original/'stock' Roadsters MAY approach or even exceed their original MSRP's. Adjusted for inflation in ~2040, how much...

Took Roadster #157 for Virginia State Inspection last week...... Everything passed except the headlights (low beams) which failed to come on when the rotary switch was turned past the parking lights stop. In fact, rotating the switch to headlight position killed the parking lights as well as the...

Your last couple of thoughts rang familiar..... I traded my '94 911 Turbo 3.6 after having it primarily as a garage queen for 16 years. This model got hot as it had limited production and was the last of the rear wheel drive turbos. I traded it 2 years ago for my as new P85+ and a fat check. I...

Not sure which of the 'don't drive it much' Roadster categories I fit into....... Though retired, I seem to stay busy/preoccupied with other things I 'need' to do, leaving little time for Roadster #157, which I bought this past Spring. Our '13 P85+ stretches her legs far more often! One theory I...

About 8 weeks ago, an onscreen displayed message (warning) regarding my 12V battery showed up on my '13 P85+. I called the Tyson's (VA) service center; they kindly fit me in 48 hours later, suggesting this could not wait. The 12V was replaced, no charge, under warranty. Fast forward to...

Anyone have the skinny on the where and when of the proposed Cville Supercharger? My (totally a) guess is at I-64 5TH Street exit in new Wegmans complex.

Thanks for your reply; this is the same unit I have. I DO know the unit works sans smoke detector attached but nonetheless thought having the original detector in place would add a measure of safety as it is designed to shut down charging if smoke is detected. Dr.Z

Greetings, And thanks for your input :-) The Roadster HPC has a port on its side to plug in the smoke detector that originally came with the device. The charger itself has an indicator light on the front of the panel labeled "Smoke Detected" Further, with the connected smoke detector in...

Recently bought an '08 Roadster to keep my P85+ company. The former came with its (unused) HPC but....there was no smoke detector included. Any comments regarding availability of the appropriate detector and its importance much appreciated. Thanks!
