As advertised, a "like new" Tesla from Autosource

After reading up on the Tesla for a few years, it was finally time to pull the trigger and my 16 Model S from Autosource did not disappoint. I was a little skeptical to buy a high end care from a Pre-Owned Auto Dealer, but the car has been great and my friends can't even tell its used. Love Love Love.

Great Car!

Awesome car! Here in my neck of the woods, it draw LOTS of attention. Beyond that, the car above and beyond any vehicle I've ever own or even driven and the instant torque makes it frighteningly fast.

Best Electric car on this planet. Period

A perfect fusion of aesthetics, engineering, technology and reliability. I cant find one thing that this car lacks (Unless you have range anxiety in which case, this is the still best electric car out there)This will redefine the car industry if it already has not.

Not just the best car, The best THING I?ve owned !

It?s Not just the best car I?ve owned , it?s The best THING I?ve owned ! I should have made the purchase / transition to Tesla years ago....especially since I have solar, I?m charging at home and driving for free (Not counting Tesla?s 10,000 + free Superchargers across the US) So consider the savings from : 1)Not purchasing gasoline/diesel/natural gas or propane or hydrogen. 2)Not paying for oil changes. 3)Not paying for cooling system / radiator antifreeze maintenance, 4)Not paying for smog checks and or smog related repairs . 5)Not paying for brakes, brake related expenses till way over 100,000 miles due to Tesla?s regenerative braking . 6)Not having to pay for motor/engine belts and hoses. 7)Not having to pay for Transmission oil/filter service or maintenance and repairs since Tesla?s do not have transmissions. 8)Not paying for fuel filters, DEF fluid (for new ?clean diesels) . 9)GREATLY diminished waste of time in traffic due to the ability to use the carpool/HOV lane while driving solo. 10) Tesla?s are the Safest vehicles made receiving the highest marks on crash tests.

Best Car I ever owned

The car is very safe, comfortable, awesome to dive and you always feel pampered. After driving this car, I can not go to a regular vehicle.

Best car I?ve ever owned

This car does everything. Not paying for gas is probably the best thing when owning this car. I used to pump gas all the time, not anymore!

Wouldn?t go back to fuel cars

Technical marvel, a car you want to keep driving, as long as you have a simple charging routine, EV is the way to go, the future should prove that.

Best car ever!

Best car I?ve owned, by far

The Model S is fast, quiet, comfortable, gorgeous and doesn?t spew toxic gas into the atmosphere. I?ll never willingly own a non- electric car again, and so far, Tesla is the best.
