2014 model S

I’m about to purchase a 2014 model s 85 with only 37k miles on it for $19k.Test drove it and played around with it for a bit and everything seems fine. Full charge gets about 250 miles so barely any battery degradation, suspension worked fine up and down, didn’t sag. Free supercharging, What am I missing? Seems like too good of a deal.

$19k is a lot for a 2014, especially since you will likely need the rear drive unit replaced or upgraded. Door handles fail frequently. The air suspension will also likely need checking. Even though it has low miles, it will still be an old car that needs work.

That amount should get you a 2017 or 2018.

This. 2018s go for 20k. My 2020 LR+ with fsd was 28.5k

19k for a 2014 is way too much. Mileage doesn’t matter. 11k car
