Hi folks,
I'm pretty new here and considering buying a used Model S via private party sale (when I find one). Thanks to everyone sharing their thoughts all around this forum.
I was wondering if those who have previously purchased via private party have any wisdom to share. In particular, had a few specific questions:

I was wondering if those who have previously purchased via private party have any wisdom to share. In particular, had a few specific questions:
- Do Tesla stores offer any kind of "inspection" on a private sale? EG, could I get a potential purchase "checked out" by Tesla first?
- Any advice/concerns on buying used private party? One minor concern I had was that by the time it's paid off, a 2015 for example would be about 6 years old. That's not really *that* old for a regular car, but this is also not a conventional car.
- I'm really only considering private purchase since everyone makes out better in those deals, but am not opposed to CPO. I know the CPO vs. private purchase discussion has been done to death, but if you have any other thoughts on the matter I'd love to hear them. I do like that CPOs are awfully reassuring as a first time owner.
