Used Plaid market... Are 2021 Model to avoid ?

For 950.00 you can get a Glossy or Matte Carbon Fiber overlay kit that is easy to install and looks like OEM.
Personally I like the gloss instead of the matte except for the front console piece in matte that I like better.
The front console piece is extra and not in the kit.

My comment was regarding the Plaid's that were built before the carbon trim was perfected. These have a laundry list of flaws and missing parts. Most were sold to employees and now are old enough for resale. A little more than 1000 cars in that group and the long range are harder to identify.

Mine is a dec 2021 car and had the dark oak trim and it was fine but I like the gloss Carbon Fiber better.
The Tesla CF is matte which doesn't look as nice to me.

450

It's a Plaid.
I wasn't interested in a Long Range.
I only bought it for it's insane acceleration as a Muscle Car.
My previous vehicle was a Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk with the 707 hp Hellcat engine.
Unfortunately it got written off in a not at my fault accident when a guy pit maneuvered
me into a guard rail changing lanes at the last second to get back on the highway at a 2 lane exit.
The Plaid is the EV version of the Classic American Muscle Car.
A big engine in a passenger production car.

Did you buy it new from Tesla?

No I bought it used from Carmax with 16k miles in August 2023.
They brought it in on a car carrier from California.
I traded in my other 2014 Jeep GC SRT that had a SC 426 with 10 psi of boost.
Tesla doesn't want modded cars for trade ins.

That makes more sense. That car was likely wholesaled to Carmax by Tesla. Have you ever looked up the ownership history in Autochex or Carfax?

No I think it was a 1 owner car.
I haven't had any issues in 8k miles.
I put 12k into it upgrading the stereo with subs and CF and skirts rear spoiler and wheels .
