Vehicle description
All electric Fusion Red Tesla Roadster 2.5 model (#1159). Over 200 miles on a range charge and accelerates from 0-60 in 3.9 seconds without an effort and hardly a sound. Barely $5 to fill up on fuel and no more trips to the gas station ever. At 15k miles per year, assuming fuel costs of $3.5/gallon and usage at 20mpg, this car will save $13k in fuel costs over 5 years. Title in hand and ready to sell.
Includes premium sound system and touchscreen navigation (with Sirius XM) not available on the 1.5 and 2.0 models. Also includes more muscular front bumper not available on 1.5 and 2.0 models. 2.5 model also has these other improvements over previous models:
- Wider selection of tires. The 1.5s were notoriously picky about what tires would work with the TPMS. I"m not sure about the 2.0s.
- More comfortable bucket seats.
- More powerful HVAC system. The HVAC in these cars is a little under-powered for running with the top down, so even up North I wouldn"t want to run a 1.5 or 2.0 topless on a hot summer day.
- More powerful cooling system for the battery and engine. This prevents the car from overheating and decreasing power in hot conditions. Not so important up north, unless you want to go to the track.
- Double DIN radio with Nav and backup camera. The 1.5s and 2.0s don"t have a nav option, and the quote I got to modify the dash to add one was $5k+, though there were cheaper options if I was willing to lose the center vents or go with a popout display.
- Tachometer was replaced with a power usage gauge that"s much more useful (and way more fun!)
- Upgraded stereo w/sub with electronics group. I"m not sure if the 1.5s had a sub included. I know the 2.0s did if you got the electronics group.
- Glovebox. I don"t think the 1.5s and 2.0s had one.
- Better sound deadening for a quieter ride when the top is on and windows are up. Honestly, the car could use a lot more, so I wanted all I could get.
- The little driver information panel is in the center console on the 2.0s and 2.5s, which provides a little storage space near the driver"s left hand. On the 1.5s it was to the left of the wheel and not easy to use or read. Not sure on the 2.0s but I think it was moved then.
- Push button gearshift. This one is a matter of preference. The 1.5s and 2.0s had an actual shifter.
Has paint armor and tinted windows. Also has 3 charging connectors for every situation so no home charging station is required: 1) 12 amp cord plugs into standard wall outlet 2) 40 amp cord plugs into "drier outlet" for fast charging 3) J1772 cord plugs into standard universal charging stations
All regularly scheduled service and maintenance performed. Full maintenance history records available.
Car lived in Florida from its construction in Dec 2010 until August 2015. It was flatbedded up to Pittsburgh in an enclosed carrier in warm fall weather. Garage kept; never driven in the snow and rarely in the rain; just came out of its winter slumber. Never smoked in.
Battery well maintained, usually in the optimal 50%-80% range. Car driven at least once a week most of the year; taken out in the winter any time warm weather has brought a steady rain to wash the salt away for a time. Charges to 164 ideal miles in standard mode; CAC at 131.
I created a video last year just before putting the car into storage that shows the paint and interior in more detail and talks about the car in general. It"s been out of storage and driven a bit since that time so the mileage stated in the video is no longer accurate.
