    Laughable considering that Roadster's original MSRP was $124,300...but hey - I shall remain an excited spectator.

    Food for thought...

    Before I traded my 308 for my Roadster, I considered getting a Alfa Romeo 4C instead (may still in the future). But, take a look at what others on the 4C forum had to say about the Roadster. I definitely considered price appreciation when making my decision, but was not the driving factor. We may very well be "sitting pretty".

    Trade for a ferrari 308?

    Welcome! Nice car ;) You can get the XLR8 app if you want your Ferrari sounds back - you'll probably want to upgrade the sound system as well then.

    Damn; the original asking price was $80-$90; then shot up to $125K after the R80 auction car sold for $125K; and now the price is $140K?! Am I missing something?

    Price sounds about right... But prices lately have been jumping up, so could be a good deal if they continue the upward trend.
    Also, you found one with relatively low mileage...

    I only had a model 3. Kind of new at this. Once the got the roadster, i should check the battery status. Anything else i should be aware of? Btw, Where can i get a black hard top.

    According to the dealer, the had tesla perform a battery check. Tesla said the battery is healthy and they also replaced a set of new tire.

    I suggest you look at the Visium top:

    Visium Unboxing!

    That's one thread, but a search for 'tesla roadster visium' will show up more. The visium seems to be a good compromise - not as claustrophobic as the usual hard top.
