Listing Update — Strong Buyer Interest

When this exceptional Signature Roadster was first listed, the seller established a fixed asking price of $250,000.

As part of our Tesla Roadster Matchmaking program, Gruber Motor Company initially shared the listing with our prequalified Roadster buyer list, typically giving these buyers a 24-hour preview before introducing vehicles to our broader social media audience.

The response was immediate. Multiple interested buyers began submitting competing offers, creating a bidding environment reminiscent of a highly competitive real estate market.

In response, the seller requested that we remove the fixed $250,000 asking price and transition the listing to a Make Offer format, allowing prospective buyers to present their best offers for the seller’s consideration.

A Remarkable Survivor — Signature 100, VIN 013

Some Tesla Roadsters are rare. Others have extraordinarily low mileage. Occasionally, one comes along that combines both characteristics in a truly remarkable package.

This beautifully preserved Thunder Grey Tesla Roadster Signature 100 is one of those exceptional examples.

Consider the numbers: VIN 013 — just the thirteenth Roadster VIN — with only 840 miles showing.

The combination of an exceptionally early VIN, Signature 100 designation, remarkably low mileage, desirable Thunder Grey exterior, and preserved original equipment makes this an especially compelling opportunity for serious Tesla collectors and enthusiasts of early electric vehicle history.

Original Equipment & Accessories

The vehicle is accompanied by an impressive collection of original equipment, including:

  • Original hardtop — still in its box
  • Original 220V charging equipment
  • Original 110V charging equipment
  • Both original keys
  • Original USB devices
  • Original owner’s manual

For collectors seeking an early-production Roadster with its original accessories retained, these details add to the appeal.

Vehicle Condition & Service Notes

This Roadster is described as beautifully preserved, reflecting its exceptionally limited use over the years.

The vehicle currently reports a Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) warning. Aging TPMS sensors are a common issue on early Roadsters, as their internal batteries eventually reach the end of their service life.

Sensor replacement is generally a routine service procedure. Buyers should confirm parts availability, service-provider capability, and current replacement costs before purchase.

Why This Roadster Stands Apart

Signature 100 designation. VIN 013. Just 840 miles. Three remarkable collector attributes combined with a desirable color, original accessories, and a significant place in Tesla’s earliest production history.
