Vehicle Specifics

Tesla Roadster – Rare Brilliant Yellow | Recent R80 Battery Upgrade | Exceptional Condition

An exceptional opportunity to own one of the rarest colors in the original Tesla Roadster lineup — Brilliant Yellow, with approximately 23 examples believed to remain according to the Gruber Roadster Census.

This Roadster has had just two owners and has been meticulously cared for throughout my ownership. Always garage-kept and maintained on its charger, it has received the attention these increasingly collectible vehicles deserve.

In 2023, the car received the R80 battery pack upgrade, along with more than $60,000 in service and maintenance work. The major investment has already been made, offering the next owner considerable peace of mind.

Vehicle Highlights

  • Rare Brilliant Yellow exterior – One of approximately 23 examples believed to remain.
  • R80 battery upgrade – Installed in 2023 as part of an extensive service investment exceeding $60,000.
  • Reconditioned soft top – Professionally serviced by Gruber Motor Company.
  • Original Brilliant Yellow hard top – Never used and still in its original shipping box.
  • Bluetooth audio upgrade – Added a dongle allowing music streaming directly from a smartphone.
  • Careful ownership – Consistently garaged, properly charged, and maintained.
  • Outstanding driving experience – A pleasure to drive, with no issues experienced during my ownership.
 

A Rare Opportunity for Tesla Collectors

The original Tesla Roadster represents an important chapter in automotive history. Finding one in such a distinctive color, with an upgraded battery and this level of care, makes this example particularly special. I’m selling only because I no longer have the opportunity to enjoy the car as often as it deserves.

For someone seeking a rare, well-maintained Tesla Roadster with substantial recent investment, this is an exceptional example worth considering.
