2008 Tesla Roadster — Monterey, California

This 2008 Tesla Roadster is based in Monterey, California, USA. Recently serviced by Gruber Motor Company, this Roadster has had major recommended maintenance completed and is now ready for the next chapter of ownership. Each Roadster for sale has a story, and we encourage sellers to share what makes their car special. This Roadster came from an owner who wanted the oldest Tesla they could find for a simple 5-mile commute to work after being told they were not driving their BMW “performance” vehicle hard enough. Buying the Roadster quickly became one of the best decisions they ever made. The car was fun, unique, and engaging enough that friends frequently wanted to sample drive it. That enthusiasm eventually helped inspire the owners to start their own classic car rental business, where they now rent a variety of classic and performance cars in the Monterey / Pebble Beach area. This Tesla Roadster comes with a color-matching hard top in addition to the soft top.

Owner’s Backstory

We decided to get the oldest Tesla we could find for the 5-mile commute to work after being told that we weren’t driving our BMW “performance” vehicle hard enough. Buying the Roadster was one of the best decisions we ever made. It is so fun to drive. Friends wanting to sample drive our Roadster was part of the impetus to start our classic car rental business. Today, we rent a variety of classic and performance cars in the Monterey / Pebble Beach area.
