I still want to know why when you select Any Location only 10 cars appear...
Not really, it's just another speculation. It it further fed by the fact that in Dec'15 Tesla went on a discount spree to pump up their numbers, then come Jan'16 the prices went back up, causing people to complain and/or spin conspiracy theories.
It's not just conspiracy theory, there is something going on beyond just price fluctuations. If you go to http://www.ev-cpo.com/ and filter out just by CPO, you will see that the last posted CPO was 12/18/2015, none less than $60k, and only ten less than $70k. I am not staking a claim as to what Tesla is up to, but they are doing something. They haven't posted an additional CPO since the list was purged.
Very good observation, I just checked it myself. It is very unlikely that Tesla didn't trade-in ANY CPO qualified cars in 2.5 months, so where did all those trade-ins go? Are they all sitting somewhere to be CPO'ed? Or have they all been sold-through ("cash is king?") to wholesalers?If you go to http://www.ev-cpo.com/ and filter out just by CPO, you will see that the last posted CPO was 12/18/2015
There were plenty of cars posted after that date. They were just removed when the big purge happened. So it is giving the false indication that none had been added since mid-December. That was not the case.Very good observation, I just checked it myself. It is very unlikely that Tesla didn't trade-in ANY CPO qualified cars in 2.5 months, so where did all those trade-ins go?

One other possibility but I don't think anyone has brought up yet...Tesla is gearing up to populate "used car lots". I was able to arrange a one-off tour of the "post trade in pre-CPO" cars in Fremont a few months back. I wanted to see what they looked like when they came in NOT what they looked like after they were refurbished. I was told that Tesla is/was building a CPO lot where people could come and test drive the cars and buy on the spot. There would be an east coast and west coast CPO lot. Could it be the cars they pulled are all getting scrubbed up and ready to populate these CPO lots? The woman responsible for these CPO lots is the one that provided me with the tour and she did say Dublin was the location for the West coast. I wasn't asked to sign a non disclosure but I also don't want to burn any bridges so,I won't name names...

based on what I am suggesting here, it would make sense that they would pull a few hundred cars from inventory and start the refurbishment process. Once the cars are refurbished they could warehouse them in the factory and then Populate the used car lots in one fell swoop to much fanfare. Prospective buyers could drive or fly in, inspect, test drive, finance/purchase and supercharge their way back home. None of this $1000 down, weeks to refurbish, shipping costs, second round of refurbishment and then final delivery. Anywa, something to think about. I know I'd prefer to buy a CPO under this situation versus the current clunky program.
The more I consider this, the more it makes sense. Here's why. My buddy bought a CPO last year, 5 weeks after ordering it from SF he was told it was still two week away from being ready to be shipped. He was PO'd as anyone would be. He complained and they waived the delivery fee to Denver ($1200 or $1500 I forget). When it arrived he found numerous areas that were not to the CPO standards and refused delivery. Now even more PO'd. They provided him with a P85 loaner for two weeks while they worked through the issues. On 2nd inspection he found some additional items and again refused delivery I think just to push the limits. New rims, tires, windshield, seat, paint protection later he took delivery almost two months after his deposit was made. That's not a good situation for anyone involved. The "CPO showroom/lot" makes much more sense to me. Find one you like, drive, inspect and agree to purchase and it gets hand washed while you sign the paperwork and its yours 90 minutes later and you drive off into the sunset.
I live near Dublin. An old Chrysler dealership. Lots of pavement to park lots of vehicles (at least 50 or more slots) plus a nice large sales office, a service center, Superchargers and about 4 or 5 HPWCs (some crippled to 40A), all conveniently located at the intersection of Interstate 580 and 680 (...close to most anywhere in the SF Bay Area). I have in fact been surprised that CPOs have not shown up there yet.
