Can people please stop wrecking these cars so that 1) there might be some left to show our grandkids and 2) second hand value might equal dpeilow bank account level someday... thanks.
Hehe, was thinking the same thing.Originally Posted by dpeilow
Was thinking the opposite - come on value appreciation!
A bad thought occurred to me: can the owners of these two cars actually buy a replacement?
So, TEG, can you tell us how many Roadsters have been totaled, to date?
Yeah, I'm starting to wonder if Roadsters have an extremely high crash percentage, or if it's just because it's the only vehicle that TEG keeps track of and I notice it more.
I guess not... maybe we should start buying up the bits to keep our cars running in the future

Would need to compare to other cars that can accelerate 0-60 in under 4s.
The quiet and smooth way it accelerates can also catch someone by surprise.
Also, the carbon fiber + aluminum design tends to result in salvage status from any major accident that intrudes into the chassis.
It could also be that more people use the Roadsters as daily commuters (like I do). I doubt many people use Ferraris and the like as daily commuters. It would be interesting the know what the story is for these 2 crashes. My wife and I are pretty concerned about crashing the Roadster now that there are no new ones. Do you know what insurance would pay for? Since there are no new ones would they look at the used car prices? Or pay back the original price?
