If you are thinking about buying a high performance car there is nothing like the thrust of this electric roadster. If I wasn't expecting twins and needing a bigger car I would keep this forever. I love it and I'm sad to have to make room for a mini van. This a rare but gorgeous color combination of Thunder Gray with Saddle Brown seats and trim. This vehicle is clean, fast (0-60 in 3.9 seconds) factory warrantied and serviced with latest firmware in the last 3 days. Completely loaded with every available feature including 2 roofs, navigation, bluetooth, travel charger, heated seats, etc etc etc Factory serviced, low miles, garage kept.

Please excuse the photos, I'm not a photographer :-) As all Tesla's do, this will require the installation of the charging station which will need to be removed from my house. Buyer will need to pay for removal and installation by a certified technician. This will be required for any such car unless you g=buy a new charging station for thousands of dollars + install and shipping charges. I use Solar City, factory recommended installers and they will do the job right, efficiently and at a very fair price.
