I am very interested in purchasing this car and have mentioned it to my friends who also own high end vehicles. They all warn me not to buy, concerned about the resale especially after the warrantee expires. They question me about who will service this expensive purchase. I realize , Tesla is probably the only one that can and they seem overworked now.
My friends have me thinking of what the service will be like when there are 4x as many vehicles produced on the road, still under warrantee with possible 4x as many service calls.
On top of that, how glitchy will these cars be, 4 years down the line and after the warrantee is done will they be worthwhile to keep and maintain or will they be extra expensive because of the computerized technology.
There definitely will not be a local service centre or dealership every few miles that know how to service the Tesla like there are now for the ICE.
All these concerns are valid and most certainly impact the resale value and demand for these cars now and will multiply and escalate as more vehicles hit the roads.
Please, protective fanboys who want to flame need not post. These are serious concerns by me and many others on the fence which need to be discussed.
