For Sale: 2011 Roadster (#1172) - Northern California

[laweijfmvo]

I can't believe this day has come, but due to an upcoming move later this year, #1172 needs a new home. I purchased this car 2.5 years ago from the original owner here. I've loved every day with this car (and believe me, I drove it almost every day), but 3 cars is already too many in the Bay Area and unfortunately I can no longer give the Roadster the love it deserves.

More updates and current photos coming after a wash later this week, but please see the original thread for all the extras included (everything from the original sale is still here). Additionally,

• New brakes (pads, rotors, flush, etc.) as of last summer
  
• Upgraded all four speakers
• Current mileage is now 43,100
• Will get the CAC tomorrow. Battery charges to 165 mile range, standard, as expected

Typical wear-and-tear applies for a car of this age. This car is for someone who intends on driving the car, as it should be. Overall, though, it's in great condition. Local (California) buyer preferred so we can meet in person and go over the car, but very willing to help ship the car (I bought it from Atlanta). I'm also happy to answer any questions and take any photos, or provide any details.

I'd like to get $60,000, but open to offers. Not in a hurry to sell, I'm looking for a good home for the car. I'll find a way to keep it if I have to Thanks!

So the price 3 years ago was $65k when you bought it and now you are trying to sell it for $60k? I didn't realize the Roadsters were holding their value so well! That's incredibly low depreciation if you're able to get $60k for it.

I'm not sure, but it sounds like my initial price was too ambitious. Definitely open to negotiation on the price. What do you think would be fair?

I have no idea because I don't know Roadsters. I was hoping that depreciation really was that low because it would portend well for other Teslas.

You can’t compare the Roadster to other teslas. There were only 2500 made worldwide.

Had a couple inquiries about selling specific parts, so if someone is interested in just the base car (stock soft top, mobile charger only) with no extras, I can reduce the price to $55,000.

Thanks

Did you ever sell it? I have a 2008 Roadster that I grudgingly am being advised by the wife to sell.

Tell her she will regret it when they are selling at auction for 500k+ in 20 years.

Funny, my wife finally gave in to my whining and crying to let me get one.

What are you selling?
