    Anyone looking to sell a roadster right now?

    If i were you, i would bid on the on BaT. Mileage is only 32k and 2010 is a good year. I don’t see the value will drop. as tesla gets bigger, original roadster demand will get higher. I wouldnt buy it to make money but I dont see you will lose much at least.

    I messaged the seller. He said someone did the buy it now button for 70k. He probably could have sold it higher because there were ton of inquiries.

    that’s actually whats in my mind. Why the end price is only 115k? It looks like the mileage does not drive the sale price higher. But, the battery is healthy and condition is excellent.

    Was this a good deal? 115k for 2.5 sport under 6k miles. https://bringatrailer.com/listing/2010-tesla-roadster-12/?fbclid=IwAR3n6CUu3t79IMX0g4_crQLqHKWBVpH9ITEpwHrvAcQ0vXeOmS7vGR1HH68

    Canada has a more strict safety compliance than USA. Since i imported one from Canada to USA, i read a lot about this. I think there was one person successfully export US roadster to Canada long time ago. Tesla sourced the parts from Canada for him and “upgraded” it for him in the USA. But…...

    Sorry i got one more newbie question. When i charge the car with the 110 outlet with Tesla adapter(the seller gave me this), it is pretty loud. I was told this is normal. Since the car is working so hard to charge, 220v will reduce the charge time. Is 220 charging better than 110 charging? It...

    i did look into importing one from Asia. They are selling roadster so cheap and in mint condition. Obviously we need to wait another 15 years to import them. I was thinking purchase 1 in 2030 and pay for a storage fee with power outlet. Then, import it 2035.
