[Warning: Long read ahead, but this should cover everything]
If you need autopilot, this is not the car for you. If you love to drive, like the idea of 0-60 in 4.2 seconds, and don’t want your car to look exactly like everyone else’s,
keep reading.

PERFORMANCE: While certainly not P100D performance, 0-60 in 4.2 seconds is plenty fast enough to feel the G forces in your gut and get “Oh my _ _ _” and “Holy _ _ _ _” reactions from passengers. The P85 is RWD and it handles beautifully, even in the winter. I cannot get it to fish tale.
BATTERY: I charged to 100% maxed out at 250 miles of range. That is less than 6% degradation from the original 265-mile rating!
CONDITION: Just completed full service before Super bowl week from TESLA to ensure everything is in tip-top shape for the next owner. The drive unit was making a slight sound this summer when I took it in, so they replaced the entire unit. Since the car was being serviced anyway, they proactively replaced an airbag and the HV battery contactors as well.
This car truly is in excellent condition, with only a couple of exceptions: With 5mm of tread left, all four winter tires and I have a good set of summer tires. A couple of the wheels have light curb rash.
The only other imperfection I am aware of is a “bump” in the back bumper. You have to look to see it.
WHY AM I SELLING? I LOVE this car and have been procrastinating selling it. I am honestly more of a tech guy than a car guy (I really want AP, despite it being a work in progress), so I’ve ordered a Model 3 over two years ago. And it is ready to configure. That means it is time to find this Tesla a good home - Perhaps yours…?
BONUS: I have a Thinkware F800 Pro front dashcam. I plan to move it to my Model 3, but I will leave it for you dollars of install fees or several hours of your time. If you want my dashcam, add $250 and I will leave it for you and will buy a new one for myself.
TIMING: Ideally, I would like to keep until my 3 arrives. Letting this car go before then will be a hassle for me, so I am not really motivated to negotiate on price if you want the car right now.
