I'm new here and I'm just seeking some feedback. Recently I found a Tesla S P85 for sale with a rebuildable title. The price is within my range but the only issue is that its over 1,000 miles away. So I wanted to get some insight from any of you that may have taken on a Tesla S rebuildable title as a project.
The damage appears cosmetic such as fenders and bumpers but the delaership says the car has no charge and they have no way of charging it. They do say the 12v system works fine...whatever that means.
I've been a corvette driver for over 15 yrs and i'm excited to transition to this new technology especially if I can sell my vette and get one of these high performance model s.
From the research i've gathered a lot of the tesla s is designed so that the owner cannot do repairs themselves. How can I confirm that the drive train on this car is properly working before purchasing? I can handle body repairs paint suspension and alot of the other things that got damaged. But I read that the computer and drive train is serviceable only by Tesla.
I dont want to make a mistake by taking on this project.
Thanks,
Rafael
