So I made an inquiry about the spare set of forged 2.5 rims that were listed with #1038 and Jeff, the owner, said he wanted to sell everything as a package vs. parts here and there to ship.

I thought about it a bit . . . pretty sweet price and I was having some BBD (Bumper, Bolster, Double-Din) envy anyway so . . .

Look what was in the carrier behind 1038! This was in PRISTINE shape inside and out!

So I have stable-mates for the time being. Probably will sell 667 since 1) i don't need two roadsters, and 2) my daily driver was broken into after being relegated to the street

Of course, I've done a modification already

Anyone need a 2.5 Snow Shield? Taken off to prepare for the transfer of the JdeMO from 667

Or 2 year old, but never used, winter tires (Blizzak WS80) - rims not included

The other stuff that came with it will probably go on the market too.
  • CAN SR
  • CAN JR
  • Titanium Dave Rotors (I was in the latest group buy) I'll probably keep the pads

Wow you did buy it. Missed it by that much lol. Congrats my friend. I'll buy the car cover from you case I land my roadster. They are so hard to come by. PM me if the cover is available

Are the headlights on your grey roadster upgraded?
 
Where can I find out more about these roadsters? I have a Model 3 and would like to add a roadster. What is a 2.0 or a 2.5? What is the 0-60 in these beautiful cars?

There's a ton of good information here within the forum.

Also, the Wikipedia page isn't bad:
Tesla Roadster (2008) - Wikipedia

1.5, 2.0, 2.5 refer to the different revisions of the Roadster that were made over the production timeline. 0-60 is 3.9 or 3.7 for the sport version. Nice and zippy.
