Why "must" you have free transferrable supercharging? (curious)

 

[gaswalla]

Lol at the aol email.

ASL? @gaswalla

Thanks for response.
a. live in high rise condo, garage has no charging
b. going to use for many many long distance road trips, FUSC = overhead reduction

"ASL? @gaswalla"
Don't know what this is, a lead? Don't have Twitter...

ASL is a joke from back in the AOL days

For local charging, look to see if there is a Chargepoint nearby with "free" charging (you can download the app and filter by free locations).

FUSC = alternatively you're looking at about $20-25 to charge from 15/20% to 80/85% so it's not that bad, and on a car that gets 290mi to the full (100%) charge you can get an idea of costs per mile and build that into your travel plans.

Age/$3X/Location, nice

I should have done the same with my local SA team, $300 bucks to the first SA that gets me my car

Actually, got a PM about private seller in Seattle who buys at Phoenix auctions,
who recently sold such a "Unicorn" for $53K to LA CA buyer;
also, there's previous thread in this very section where someone wanted same
& response from owner who offered such a vehicle...
So slight, IMO, not slim to none...
but its true there's nothing anywhere in Cars.com & AutoTrader.com
right now & I don't know where else to look...

The car I sold for $53k has 95k miles. Your ask is simply not doable in this market as I stated in PM.

Your best bet is to find a 75D or 90D to fit your desires.

There are a variety of Facebook groups for Tesla classifieds, but just know that you are asking a lot for a little. Any 100kWh pack that shows up fitting those requirements is going to sell very quickly.

For what it is worth, I can get a 2016 P100DL w/ FSD and 42k miles to your door for $60k; however, that's $10k above your asking, 17k more miles, and no free supercharging.

With that said, as an example, I can get you a 2017 non-performance Model S, 41k miles, 2 owners, no accidents to your door for about $51k. That does NOT have free supercharging either, so you're back to square one.


I don't want to say you have an unrealistic request, but you have an unrealistic request, lol. You've got to be open to either spending a bit more, waiting forever, dropping your battery pack requirement (as noted by Josh), or be willing to pony up the $25ish to charge. Something has got to give, and you have to decide what that is ...or be ruthless at checking every single classified group/site and pounce should anything fit the bill. Alternatively sign up for alerts on Cars & Bids, and you might get lucky there (note the 4.5% purchase fee though).

Thanks for response.
Unfortunately, I can no longer edit OP.
I will consider ANY price, now realizing X's & P's may be $60K+ or more.
SC01-FUSC is a must, but FSD is not a must, low mileage is factor;
The ~290 range of 100's is priority = less hassles on numerous long distance road trips...
a very nice 2016 S 70 is my backup but 238 range is problematic;

In terms of Model S, does it have to be a performance? Or would you just prefer that?

 

[RIB-JIG]

I do NOT prefer P because I would not use it that way.
I will probably develop a case of Range-roid...maximizing range.
Greatest acceleration would be Interstate entrances.
I've been told, all things being equal, P's degrade their batteries faster than 100 or 100D's...

 

[gaswalla]

Some experts here to correct or validate this, but I believe that of the 100s, only p100dL was made in early Jan 2017

For reference, the performance versions give you four driving modes: chill, sport, ludicrous, and ludicrous+. If you change your driving style slightly, you can easily drive in Ludicrous mode without draining the battery any quicker, and you'll still have that neck snapping acceleration to quickly/safely get around people.

I wouldn't be that concerned about degradation considering you'll want to sell the car before the warranty expires anyways, and we're talking a six year old car. Most of the degradation has already happened at this stage.

I don't know that the performance models would degrade any quicker than non-performance. They utilize the same exact battery packs (my understanding).

I've had two 2016 P100DL examples now. They're common.

Both of these are P100DL.

 

[gaswalla]

I meant to comment on the prior post. Non performance 100s were not produced in Dec 16 -Jan 17?

 

[TwistedGray]

Can I get $300?

2016 Model S P100D Unicorn - $61,000

You can if you're first with this lead & I buy it.
