Congrats! That’s great that you got the spec you’ve wanted. I assume we’re talking about vin 996 (and not #966). Enjoy the ride for many miles to come. Cheers!

You just ruined someone's day, I hope he hasn't already ordered the t-shirt
Hi Gremlin,
congrats from me, too! Welcome to the club... I followed your desire, the ups and downs for the last time and thought: Will he get one some day? I wish you luck and fun on all your rides.
Yes 996 thank you. I updated my signature. Bank approved loan. Got insurance yesterday, bank is requiring the car registration from seller, then all set.

Returning the favor for someone looking for their magic carpet ride / Unicorn. Yes this will be the first song played in my ride too!! Glacier Blue Sport. Just listed on Pete's site as I got an email hot off the press. I told Gruber motors they can remove me from the buyers' list now :- P

Exceptional 1 owner Roadster #450 with 2,700 miles
Hello friends. We are selling our early Roadster, we are the first and only owners. Purchased new in California in 2008, garage kept in Monterey and driven less than 3,000 miles since then. We have factory cover, hardtop, window stickers, notices and all paperwork since new, all of it. The...

Since the pandemic, it has been said that used cars have gone up 30%. We all know that the roadster is a very specialty niche car, but can't help but wonder if this has also added to the increase of prices.
Nope. The prices of used cars is up because of demand and shortages. The roadster demand is not driving the price up, although it could be argued the shortage of available roadsters is....

Interesting description indicates a range of 194 miles (not sure if this is on a standard charge or range), checked mine the other day and on a standard charge it was 182 mi and in range it was 201 mi. Mine is a re-manufactured ESS installed in 2016 by Tesla.

It's highly likely it is indeed on a Standard Mode charge. Though they were very scarce, the few replacement 1.5 packs installed between 2019 to 2021 had like-new cells in them. My 1.5 got one in 2019, and still charges to 191 in Standard Mode. It's just unbelievable.
I would agree that if this is a "new" battery installed in Feb, the range is likely 194 miles on standard. Mine likely had a "new" battery in 2016 (since all logs show 2016 as the earliest date) and currently sits at 183 miles range. Would have been nice to have a the comment read "full standard" instead of "full" or some other reference to mode so not leaving us to interpret the number....

I messaged the seller. He said someone did the buy it now button for 70k. He probably could have sold it higher because there were ton of inquiries.
I dunno. Maybe I misunderstood the buy it now button and a local person made deposit instead.
