Hello,

I’d like to post an open call for a white roadster. if this is the wrong place, sorry. The one I was to pickup today, sold.

High mileage makes the most sense for me as I drive 30k+ miles a year, but I won’t turn down a roadster over the odo.
Salvaged title doesn’t matter
At this point I’m even considering a bricked WHITE one.

Thanks

Why not get the best one you can afford and wrap it? The new self-healing wraps are amazing and the car is so small it won't require as much product. Just a thought. Especially given your plans for millage and how few whites were made.

The material itself is pretty cheap. Labor is where the cost is. I recently got quotes and the Roadster would be $1k more than my Model S to wrap due to the many odd shapes and curves involved.

Sorry, I do not do wraps / plastidip on vehicles. It will be white. Not one to compromise.

Well aware of the available NON WHITE roadsters that are on market, NOT interested... hence the post for a “standing WTB” of white.

This has some miles but looks clean. No idea what the CAC is and do your diligence but clean carfax.

They have been paying interest/holding for 333 days and counting. Asking $41XXX.

Wonder if they would through in a good wrap in a deal? Labor is much cheaper for them and/or they usually have wholesale vendors they work with.

Just a thought

They’re asking entirely too much for that 08 and have zero interest in budging. I have zero interest in an overvalued (judging by others on market) car that meets zero of my requirements.

I have no idea what you know or don't know but a friendly no thank you would have worked vs two separate replies.

If I see something - I'll let you know.

Or maybe not.

Mine has 17K. I would want top dollar though. It comes with Winter and Summer tires with 2 sets of forged rims. 2 soft tops, and several hard tops and a Visium clear top.

I won't accept a low bid.

I love her but I don't drive her often anymore.

I know someone has a white 2008 (delivered in 2009), #210, 35.5K. The car is located in Dublin, CA. If the price is right, he may be willing to sell. What is your budget range?

that price and location were perfect, except I just purchased a DM3 stealth after being stood up or flat out lied to by a few roadster owners.

If it doesn’t move in a few months, I will follow up.
