If I wanted this particular car bad enough to do this deal it would only be under the following conditions.
I'd contact the lien Holder directly and find out how they would handle transfer and make payment directly to them. They can sign over title to you and send directly to you. Current owner doesn't need direct involvement. I'd in no way do it without access to Tesla account. No reason for him to retain account unless he wants to have access to car, know where it is etc.
