Yes, I linked to that auction before, here:
Tesla resale

But it looks like the auction is live now...

It will probably sell for about $109,000. I don't see it going much higher in this economy and with the recent news about Tesla downgrading the Roadster.

Out-of-date spec sheet?

Icon4 Out-of-date spec sheet?
I just took a look at the spec sheet - looks a little dated to me, so the winner would get quite the bargain at $109K.

It's been holding at 105 for a few days now. Next bid it goes to 110.

Up to $120K now, still 14 days to go.

(Sorry James your $109K seems too low)

Charity auctions frequently fetch higher than "retail" price as someone wants to support the charity and will pay a premium to buy that way.

Wonder if it's a stripped down car?

This is sort of interesting. That auction represents a contract for the buyer and seller.

The spec sheet attached includes the HPC and the upgraded wheels and a lot of options at the old prices.

Could be interesting when it comes time for the auction winner to order.

Although at $120,000+ I think Tesla will have to be flexible. Then cannot nickle and dime this owner.

Apparently; "charitybuzz® Auctions uses UPS or FedEx for all shipping"... I wonder if they'll leave it on the doorstep, in the rain ready, for the taking... as usual.

I was a bidder on the car to try to get an earlier number at a lower price.
But the bidding has now gone beyond the price where that strategy makes sense.
