Three Brand-New OG Tesla Roadsters Could Sell For $1 Million

Someone found three brand-new, never used Tesla Roadsters that have been sitting in a container in China for ten years and now it’s thought that the trio could sell for around $1 million.

The three cars are thought to be undrivable because their decade-old batteries are completely dead, but that doesn’t seem to be putting people off picking one of them up. Or all three, it seems.

Gruber Motors is a company that normally helps get Roadsters back up and running and in this case the company has been enlisted to try and sell the vehicles.

So far there have already been seven bids, including one that was for $500,000 for all three cars. As reported by Electrek:

Bid 05/02/2023 – $50,000 each, for a total of $150K
Bid 05/02/2023 – $70,000 for Red VIN 1107
Bid 05/02/2023 – $76,000 for Red VIN 1107
Bid 05/03/2023 – $60,000 for Orange Sport VIN 1120
Bid 05/03/2023 – $200,000 for all three
Bid 05/04/2023 – $225,000 for all three
Bid 05/05/2023 – $500,000 for all three

However, the owner of Gruber Motors says that he expects the three cars to sell for more than that — all to be used as expensive additions to someone’s collection.

These should and will be a Picasso on the wall in some rich person’s collection, stationary, and no need to be operational. In my opinion, I project $1 million for all three.

If that’s the case we can expect the bidding to increase dramatically from here on out.
