This 2010 Tesla Roadster has 26k miles following registration history in Florida and New York, and it remained in the care of its original owner until it was purchased by its current owner in June 2014. The car is finished in Sterling Silver Metallic over black leather, and it is powered by a 53-kilowatt-hour battery pack powering a three-phase AC induction motor paired with a single-speed transmission. Equipment includes a clear Visium roof panel, 16″ and 17″ five-spoke wheels, heated sport seats, Bluetooth cell phone connectivity, a Kenwood head unit, cruise control, and air conditioning. This Roadster is now offered on dealer consignment at no reserve with charging cables, a soft top, spare parts, a clean Carfax report, and a clean New York title.
The Tesla Roadster was based on the aluminum tub from the contemporary Lotus Elise, with which it shared its windshield and windshield frame. The remainder of the carbon-fiber body panels were unique to the Tesla, and it utilized a 2″ longer wheelbase than the Elise. This example is finished in Sterling Silver Metallic and features a clear Visium roof panel, an exterior charging port, an integrated rear spoiler, and LED taillights. ReallyLightStuff side-mirror glass has reportedly been added, and a soft top is included in the sale.
The 16″ and 17″ five-spoke wheels were refinished in black under prior ownership and are mounted with General G-Max AS-03 tires. The car is equipped with traction control as well as front and rear independent wishbone suspension with co-axial coil springs and telescopic dampers. Stopping power is provided by four-wheel discs with a regenerative braking system. The seller states that the front-right tire pressure monitor sensor needs to be replaced, and four replacement sensors accompany the car.
The cabin features heated sport seats upholstered in black leather along with matching door panel inserts and a black dashboard. Appointments include a Kenwood head unit, Bluetooth cell phone connectivity, a center-mounted screen, cruise control, and air conditioning. A Sector 111 MicroMirror rearview mirror has been fitted.
The three-spoke leather-wrapped steering wheel fronts a 160-mph speedometer, a kilowatt usage gauge, and a digital vehicle-range bar. The digital odometer indicates 26k miles, approximately 20k of which were added under current ownership.
A 53-kilowatt-hour battery pack powers a three-phase, 375-volt AC induction motor featuring a hand-wound stator. Factory-rated output was 248 horsepower and 273 lb-ft of torque.
Power is delivered to the rear wheels through a Borg-Warner single-speed transmission.
The Carfax report is free from accidents or other reported damage.
