Cue the revolting sales staff jokes.The sales staff at a traditional car dealer would revolt if they were given turkeys like this to sell.

@ MP3Mike...you rated my comment (post 19) dislike but never voiced your opposition. Must be one of empty vessel fanboys.
I feel like a broken record. Theres nothing wrong with selling a used car with rust. BUT it diminishes their prestige by doing so. Not to mention it diminishes the prestige of all of our cars to put that rust bucket on display on their website. We realists actually agree with you fan boys, we think. that Tesla is too good to showcase a car in that condition. if I knew nothing about Tesla and saw that on their website, I would surmise that the cars are all rust prone battery powered rust buckets (lol).If someone will buy it why not sell it?
i’m a fan boy because i think if you can sell a car, sell it? I think being able to sell a car with bad paint and rust for 50K says something different than you think it does.
Search threads for sandblasted rocker panels. It's what happens in some northern climes, Canada, Finland, etc., where there's lots of sand or salt or road grit that gets blasted at the rockers during the winter months.My question here is, was the car delivered like this new or did it get damaged by the first owner and traded in?
it’s a poor showing on the used market either way and if they expect to move it they should really consider throwing a bigger discount at.
Premium car brands typically only sell "certified" used vehicles, AKA not cars in this type of shape. Sure it will sell, but that's when you go to CARMAX to find something like this - not the OEM. Tesla should auction it and let the buyer sell it on a used car lot.
It’s worked because they were at best a niche automaker until the Model 3 was released for mass consumption. Going forward.....well...they really need to catch up when it comes to sales support as contact is touch and go with advisors either ghosting or contacting diligently (as they well should, we’re not buying popsicles here.)you are conflating now things used to be done with how they should be done. Tesla has rolled without dealships and has worked out thus far. I’d say rolling without auctioneers taking 20-30 percent of what the car sales for and skipping two middle mans seems almost reasonable.
Sure, consumers can choose to not buy a $52,000 rusted 2 year old car, especially with the distance that's on it. It's completely ludicrous. However Tesla knows someone will, because fanboys.
Has the $CAD really fallen that much? Yeesh...$52,000 Canadian. That's $37,500 USD.
Get a grip. They're selling used car with some defects. They're disclosing them. If you don't want it, don't buy it.
