2010 Tesla Roadster Sport 2.0 — Arctic White, Modernized & Ready to Drive

This 2010 Tesla Roadster Sport 2.0 is finished in striking Arctic White over a Black/Red interior and shows approximately 52,000 miles. Offered by its second owner with a clean title, no accident history, and a clean Carfax/history, this Roadster has been thoughtfully refreshed and upgraded to be a far more livable, modern enthusiast driver.

Purchased in June 2025 through the Gruber Motors Roadster Matchmaking Network while it was in for service, this Sport 2.0 has since received extensive attention across the steering, suspension, braking, cooling, electronics, and interior technology systems. It is now being sold to make room for a new Model S Plaid and the owner’s future second-generation Roadster.

The current owner purchased this Roadster as a longtime Tesla owner and lifelong car enthusiast, with the goal of turning it into a reliable, enjoyable, and modernized daily driver. Over the past year, significant effort went into addressing many of the common Tesla Roadster pain points so the car would be easier to live with and more confidence-inspiring to drive.

The addition of Electric Power Steering, CarPlay/Android Auto, OVMS monitoring, and a backup camera brings a more modern driving experience to the original Tesla sports car platform, while the mechanical and battery-related service work helps support long-term peace of mind.

This Roadster has been fully “de-bugged” and is ready for its next owner to drive and enjoy immediately. The only reason for selling is that the owner has recently brought home a new Plaid and is also looking ahead to the next-generation Tesla Roadster.
