I am posting this on behalf of a friend of mine who owns this car, as he requested my help in posting & facilitating the potential sale of the vehicle. He prefers not to post the car directly, so I was happy to help find this remarkable car a new home.
We're still waiting on the window sticker, but based on similar cars I've seen, this sticker is $158,045 + $32,000 (R80 Upgrade) + $2,900 (Xenon Headlamp Retrofit). It has almost every single option possible. This is the finest Roadster I've ever been lucky enough to drive a few times (and I have driven 14 separate Roadsters on separate occasions).
The owner owns several Teslas and bought this completed Roadster from Tesla directly to enjoy & compare to his 2008 Roadster. He's put roughly 2,500 miles on the car. It was apparently never titled, as it remained an inventory car and a test car for the 3.0 battery in San Francisco. The battery's serial number is 008.
- One-Owner. Clean Title. No Accidents.
- VIN 1266
- 9,950 Miles (R80 Battery evidently installed around 7,000 Miles)
- 2011 2.5 Sport
- Fusion Red Paint (freshly 4-stage paint-corrected)
- Exterior Clear Coat Carbon Fiber Accent Group
- Executive Beige Interior + Clear Coat Carbon Fiber Accent Group
- Black Forged 2.5 Wheels
- Infotainment Group (Double-DIN...7-Speaker Audio + Bluetooth, Subwoofer, HomeLink, etc.)
- Paint Armor
- 120V Spare Mobile Connector (new in box...Tesla replaced this before his purchase)
- Michelin Pilot Super Sport Tires ($380 Installed) on rear (excellent tread)
- Battery CAC is around 193.
- Charges to 208 Miles in Standard Mode (77%). He has not Range Charged it.
++++ 3.0 (R80) Battery Upgrade ($32,000 Installed). Offers 340+ miles of range.
++++ The R80 Upgrade has a 3 YEAR / 36,000 MILE WARRANTY ON ALL PARTS AND LABOR ASSOCIATED WITH THE UPGRADE. THIS COVERS THE ENTIRE BATTERY AND PEM, ACCORDING TO THE SERVICE CENTER.
++++ Xenon Headlamp Retrofit ($2,900 Installed). Installed on October 7th.
++++ Pioneer SPH-DA120 with Apple CarPlay Headunit + Pioneer Backup Camera ($1,000 Installed). Much better than the original Alpine unit. The new Pioneer camera was retrofitted into the existing housing.
++++ Annual Service Completed July 27, 2017. Clean PEM & bill of health.
He requested that I simply ask for offers on the car. It's such a rare vehicle with the options that it has, that we just weren't sure what to price it at. The last fully-optioned 2.5 Sport with an R80 and Xenon Retrofit went for $119,888 (VIN 1232), so that's about the only similar one I have information on.
This just might be the cleanest and most complete version of the Roadster on the market. If you're looking for the finest example without having to change or upgrade a single thing, plus the convenience of a 36,000 mile warranty, this is one hell of a car.
Feel free to ask any questions or private message me directly. When he's back in town later today, he offered to let me take some more photos of the car.
EDIT: Found the window sticker on an early review of the car, which can be viewed HERE.
