Hey guys, I’ve been on the hunt for a Model S performance for a few weeks now, and I need it to have FUCS. I’ve been reading up on this forum about some nightmares people are having when buying from 3rd party dealers, as they aren’t aware of the history of the car.
Because of this, I was mainly looking at private party SC01 model S examples with about 100k miles in the $25-35k range. I recently came across a one owner for $30k with only 32k miles. This car supposedly has SC01, and the contact at the dealership said he has talked to Tesla as well as his service manager and they both said it will transfer. Idrc about what the device manager has to say, but if Tesla themselves are saying it then I can’t be getting lied to right?
In order to be fully transparent, I’ll link the exact car I’m talking about below, offered for sale at McLaren of Chicago. The carfax is available for free as well, and oddly it shows multiple tire swaps, which is another story in itself I have no idea why that is keeps popping up in the service history.
Where I need your help is to know if this car for sure has SC01, and that the FUSC transfers to me after I buy it and register it in my name. (Any insight on the tire replacement would be helpful too). I’m planning on buying the car and taking it to Texas where I recently got a new job, so will have plenty of supercharging to do. Thanks I’m advance for any insight in this matter.
