No cargo space?
But this car go space!
get out.
lmfao 🤣
But "this" car no go space.
Car don’t go
@@joshopraymarketblud said no u X infinity
Bro don wanna lose 💀
This man is selling a collectors item that has sentimental value for him because he's so focused on making wheelchairs. We need more people like you in this world
He is like every entrepreneur ever. Nothing special. All make sacrifices in service of their business endeavors.
Selling it at a 200% profit and we’re supposed to treat it like charity lol
@@flavioa6351exactly, personally, if I was in his position, I'd be keeping it rather than selling it for that huge profit, I'd forego that profit to keep something I drove my new wife home from our wedding, regardless of what kinda profit I'd be "missing out on"....but that's me.... I'd sell something else that didn't have that sentimental value attached to it.
seriously lmao@@flavioa6351
im surprised with 8 million followers here he would even need to sell it
Fun fact: Zach's Roadster's door squeak is used as a sound effect for Tony Stark's bad knee.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
It’s nice to see Jerry promoting small brands like lotus
Imagine if Lotus made an EV-version of the Elise back in the day.
Then we probably wouldn't have as much Musk ruining stuff.
@@FinlayDaG33kHe revolutionized electric cars, not sure what you’re trying to say with this lmao
@@grandmaster1984Elon Musk had not joined Tesla yet when the Roadster was being designed. Musk is not a founder of Tesla.
@@truantrayand Elon started the model S. So therefore your wrong
@@kad3e3he's just the money bank, not the brain that made the actual car. We don't praise Akio Toyoda for making indestructible Toyota Hiluxes, nor we praise the CEO of Ford for selling the most versatile truck on the road, the F150. If your praising Musk because of Tesla, you have some serious logical thinking problem.
The squeaky door always gets me
I kept asking myself: 'Cant he wd40 it?' 😅
@@shoepaengWon't help, worn bushings at just 20k miles is criminal.
Can add grease on the door hinge.
Just remove the door. Problem solved.
@@1HeatWalk Might temporarily stop the noise until the grease is squished out, but it will not replace the worn out material missing from the bushing.
I'm confident when you open the door it's sagging just a little bit, this is typical of poorly engineered vehicles, especially at such low mileage. The fact that Tesla is no longer supporting these vehicles says all you need to know, it's e-waste "Limited production edition".
this would be a perfect opportunity for Doug and his cars & bids, plus a video of Doug checking the car out.
YES
PrivateAuto is the first transactional marketplace where you can avoid scams, sign the bill of sale, and transfer any amount of money instantly. It's like the venmo for private car sales....and more.
I mean, Doug already has looked at this car. But I suppose he could do it again if he really wanted to
NO
Sell an NFT of it, lol
Lotus are such pioneers in chassis and body design that their designs are used from 1st gen Tesla Roadster to agressively fast Hennessey Venom GT.
The Roadster has very little in common with the Elise, including completely different sub frames.
@@truantraythe sub frame is the same built on the same line it's just modified somewhat
The extruded bonded subframe has a big advantage in that relatively large modifications can take place very rapidly as long as it still fits on the jig
With the roadster the side members are bent in a similar way to Evora instead of curved as in Elise/Exige
The top edge is also cut down more to give easer access to the cabin
It has no petrol tank bay looking at the video here you can see the front part remains as this is the rear of the cabin
but most of it isn't there as it's where the battery now goes
At the top there's an extra plate to secure that front part
The car is longer this would've been done with a different rear subframe but mounting points to the main subframe would remain the same
Moving forwards from the dash panel forward it looks to very similar indeed
There's likely to be a hole or two which is/isn't there on the lotus cars meaning Tesla get to say that part is different but in reality they're basically the same part
There's a number of pictures of both online look for yourself they are very very similar
@@truantraybro 1st gen roadster is basically an ev swapped lotus elise
@@truantray Cool so different subframe, same chassis. Exactly the same as the Delorean using the Lotus Esprit chassis.
@@Minto107you are so wrong lmao
My brother broke his neck in 2020, and is now a quadriplegic, wheel chairs are SO expensive for no reason, his light weight was $20,000. I am so happy you're getting into that business. Thank you.
Guessing its the regulatory stuff which meant to protect people but keeps entry to competition harder so most smaller businesses won't even attempt jumping in.
@@i_i8924 This is not the reason for the price of wheelchairs. the people who own chair companies are fucking assholes who love to overcharge for every little thing, and also if something breaks due to their own QA issues then they take as long as they can to get it fixed.
oh and for the price you have to pay for a custom chair (which is a requirement for any long term use. Not having the right size and pads will hurt your body) they still make you wait months if not years to get it made.
i think all the viewers expected it to be the same car he put in space, not the same model. jerry prob knew that too, but you know, clicks.
Yeah. I am on alerts and had to check on my tv instantly, if elon had collaborated with him.. is a bit misleading, be safe on the word play as thats a flag option now, for haters and people who do it for news
yep, I thought it was like selling naming rights on a star or something, not selling his copy of the same model
Thanks, that saved me the trouble of watching and getting not mad, but disappointed
Misleading and clickbait indeed.
They're no different than the dummy shot into space 😂
This thing is a beauty! Hope it goes to a good home!
Thanks for letting me win the race Dan.
@@JerryRigEverythingZach you really need to stop meat riding Elon. You’re much smarter than that.
@@MarioGoatsewtf he’s been critical of elon, very very critical. Learn ti distinguish elon from tesla and spacex, just because he owns them doesn’t make them bad, they are ran both by great engineers making great products
@@Sbinott0 Are they back together yet?
may be @WhistlinDiesel
all other youtubers with fancy cars had like mercedes or something, and you really did just have the coolest one especially for a tech channel
Why do I smile every time this guy opens that door😂
I got to ride in an original Tesla Roadster at an EV event. The seating position is so low to the ground. It felt like being in a go-kart. It had a great sense of speed.
Its a Lotus, it's primary use is to be driven around race tracks.
@@someone28 it is not a lotus
@@joeyscleaninglady2877it's a Lotus
@@joeyscleaninglady2877 The early ones came right off the Lotus production line complete and ready to drive, I visited the factory before the car was launched.
On July 11, 2005, Tesla and British sports car maker Lotus entered an agreement about products and services based on the Lotus Elise, where Lotus provided advice on designing and developing a vehicle as well as producing partly assembled vehicles,[50] and amended in 2009,[51] helped with basic chassis development. The Roadster has a parts overlap of roughly 6% with the Lotus Elise,[52] a 2-inch-longer wheelbase, and a slightly stiffer chassis according to Eberhard.[53] Tesla's designers chose to construct the body panels using resin transfer molded carbon fiber composite to minimize weight; this choice makes the Roadster one of the least expensive cars with an entirely carbon fiber skin.
What an amazing person to sell something like that to just go back into helping others. Need more people like this in the world with opportunity.
Love that you're willing to part with the roadster for a great cause. The video reminded me that it's been over a week since I've driven the Alpine Loop. I think it's time!
auto engineer here. I worked in Auburn Hills, Michigan when these roadsters were coming out and use to see them all the time driving around in the Rochester & Auburn Hills area of Michigan.
Man you’re just something, you’re truly inspirational person. It’s great to see people like you are still on this planet, helpful, very creative and with good heart, amazing man!!! I wish you only the best as you’re the one who really deserves that! Good luck with your new project 😉 Having that much money, I’d probably buy that car for the money you need plus some extra, haha 😄
for me, he's the only RUclips worth watching currently. reminds me of the good old days of RUclips with great videos and interesting ideas. I really miss those times.
the only thing RUclips care about now is money. the videos in recommend page are just goddamn awful attention grabbers and click baits
The interior of this is the simplicity and minimalism that makes the most sense for EVs. the big screens can take a hike.
the screens are what make it simple. When you have dials and knobs that is not minimalism.
When I saw this interior, I immediately thought "wow that's extremely different from the minimalist interior of my tesla model 3"
Look up a Model 3 if you want to see a minimalist interior.
Crazy! I saw you driving this today!
I thought it was one of the old roadsters... Looking good!
Small world!
3:20 I like the pedestrian warning system when you open the drivers door. Super cool.
I had no idea zack owned this specific one at all. That's a pretty stellar deal for the history and collector value it brings.
Its the same model not same car
@@JDogVids oh i see, it gave me a different impression watching it haha.
@@richieewinns It's almost like he is intentionally trying to deceive people by mis-representing the car and playing up the wheelchair angle. Report this as a scam please.
Lol felt the same@@docferringer
@@docferringer I'm suing him right now.
At 8:48 something about Zack parking sideways in the handicap spot out front of his own wheelchair business just makes me crack up
Awesome as always.Thanks for sharing and taking us along
Not selling on Cars & Bids feels like a jab 😂
rigghttt
@@EmTekTube you could set a minimum for the car if you want too on cars and bids
could you imagine paying 4.5% on this car as a buyer?? yikes.
@@indulgentvibes1938 now that’s a good argument 🤣
@@EmTekTube And selling direct has no auction fees.
I honestly came to his account looking for a video of him destroying the iPhone 15 Pro Max
When he steps out it looks like a toy car lol! still awesome
If only we could all be this selfless, this man is an inspiration. Don't know if I could take something I enjoy and worked hard to get and put it back into my non-profit business.
Wow, I'm amazed at learning that Christopher Nolan used the sound of the og Tesla Roadster for BatMobile. Too cool!!
Unfortunately he also used the sound of a Ford Explorer to make Batman's voice impossible to understand. Since then, he's become even more keen on unintelligible dialogue. His sound mixing is famously despicable.
$450,000? Wow the cost of manufacturing is higher than I ever imagined, which of course must be challenging for a non profit business. I'm glad to see it's still going well for you, excited to see what comes next.
the machines do some crazy stuff and save a massive amount of money in labor. it's fun just watching videos of the manufacturing machines and how they work.
Custom made industrial equipment is extremely costly.
We have a bunch of CNC machines which are over a million each
This car will be worth millions in a few years if not today. Really hope some ethical billionaires can get into a bidding war.
same. Zack deserves it
That door squeak is just too funny.
A $250k Poor quality tesla is funny? It only has 20k miles and it's falling apart at the bushings.
@@sys-administrator And?
@@sys-administratorthey added 900lbs and kept the same bushes. Also, if you watch the video, only 7% of the Roadster parts were from Lotus.
@@Dat_Sunyour ignorance is showing.
@@xploration1437 I appreciate things made to last, it is what it is.
2:12 If it's good enough for Ironman and Batman, then it's good enough for Hitman
This is amazing, you're awesome, Jerry!
Hullo Zack, I hope you get a surplus of funds for your car! I do wish you all the best in selling your Tesla and look forward to seeing what you do on the manufacturing side of the wheelchair and not a wheelchair businesses. Good luck!
I was wondering how Zack would justify the title.
11 minutes of my time and 4 unskipable ads later, I have discovered that he doesn’t.
Yea pretty bad title
That bye bye from the car at the end was so cute 🥺🥰
Okay so as Pc user who lives with his headset on, can i just say how much I appreciated that smooth mix of the Iron Man boosters that seamlessly blended into the road noise? Perfect.
By you owning this car you add a value and history to it, you are an amazing person, I wish I had that kind of money to buy it.
Someone let Jay Leno know, I bet he would like an early low production Tesla, to add to his collection, and contribute to such a fantastic project for the less able-bodied.
@jaylenosgarage
I honestly wouldn't be surprised if Leno already has a #10 or lower production car from Tesla, the dude's warehouse is insanity
Thank you, Jerry, for adding dubbing to your videos. This is evidence of your respect for all viewers. I am following you from Iraq.
Zack, All the best with the sale of your roadster, the purchase of the equipment you need for Not a Wheelchair and the growth of that business too. Tony
I love this man ❤ I hope a random rich person put their money into Good use for once
"At 2600lbs it is super heavy"
Zach, that's extremely light for a modern car.
The original Elise was under 2000lbs.
Considering it’s built on a Lotus Elise, yeah that’s heavy as balls. The Elise was a sub-2k pound car.
Doesn’t look like space, but okay :)
Lol what a joke
It looked so real because it looks so fake 😂
technically 😅
could be misleading reported as its the same tesla.. not the Tesla from space as the title conveys
@@dertythegrower no Tesla went to space 😅
@@IamBATMAN2024starman
That's a great memory you got there Sir.
Greetings from East Africa, Tanzania 🇹🇿
Fun fact: Then tesla ceo Michael Marks didnt want the roadster to appear in the videogame Project Gotham Racing 4, as he feared it would be the slowest car in the game, but eventually tesla's marketing convinced him to have to change his mind
I thought this was going to be a NFT type thing with the real one in space for sale lol
I will sell you the real one in space for only $500,000. It's a pretty good deal. You can drive it but you gotta pick it up yourself.
@@NFTI sounds good 👍😂 I need to call Elon and ask him if I can borrow a rocket 😉
@@NFTI I'll buy it for a million but you have to pick it up.
Thanks for sharing!!
Thank you for including the KM
Hope you make a lot of money off of the sale for the wheelchair business jerry! :)
Ah, I've always thought those early Teslas looked like a Lotus, now I know why! Interesting!
I saw you driving around the other day!
Where is iphone 15 pro
Those should be a collab with Mark Rober!
Send it to Jupiter
That Batman cycle noise was a memorable one back when I heard it first cool fun fact 🧐
Zack, thank you for a great review! Good luck with a car 🚗 sale 😊
I got to ride in one of these in 2010?2011? Some kid at my schools dad had one. I was gawking over it after reading about it in popular science magazines for a few years. Was cool to know I'm one of the very few that have had that opportunity. Such a cool car.
I am surprised YOU fit in it. I got to drive the first Tesla in Canada and had to squeeze my 5 foot 8 frame into it.
I love all the little sounds that you made sure to record
Another Jerry video with tech I can't afford
Keep it up!
Zack has made it apparent that it should be a standard from now on that anyone who uses the "Its not you, its me" statement to let someone/something go, should have it be followed with a 10 minute video explanation
It’s crazy to think that someone took a bunch of lotuses and put batteries into it and sold them as a “new” car. Same with Hennessy.
Lotus eager for some extra bags
@@MitchelvdPutten I guess I would have done the same!
They did have to modify the subframe and build them these new ones
And many of the cars were built at Hethal (lotus)
We all gotta start somewhere. Koenigsegg put an LS V8 from a corvette into his first car.
Yes, it's completely bonkers that a startup collaborated with an existing manufacturer to create a new product that previously didn't exist, that's really unusual. They didn't buy complete cars and strip them out, they worked with them. What's actually crazy to think is that Lotus still haven't released an electric car of their own, their first production one is coming this year and it seems to be the Eletre they'll produce first which is an SUV for some reason, you know, what Lotus are known for* rather than a sports car.
*In the UK, their reputation is they spend most of their life in the mechanics garage, and that's certainly the experience of anyone I ever met who owned one. Hopefully they've got better in the last fifteen years but petrol cars are incredibly unreliable so I wouldn't be surprised if they hadn't.
loving all the old car squeaks and sounds
The Roadster was like the iPhone 2G, Kinda rough around the edges but greatly succeeded in what it stood for and accomplished
Has anyone noticed the watch?
it is not quite a usual sight where *"Jerry doesnt rig something"* 😅
Love your channel. I have a CNC machine shop in Australia so know how expensive equipment is. Good luck selling it. Maybe Elon will give you support and buy the car.
Hope you get a good sum Jerry, love you work❤️
man...
the dedication to get the car in space back to Earth to sell it...
just wow
Well, this was very unexpected 😂
Loved this! They make those inflatable lumbar supports universal if that peaked anyone's interest.
I assume you can get the JDEMO upgrade so you can fast charge it, also there is the CAN adapters to connect to standard level 2. I drove a roadster in 2012, I swore no mater what I was going to get a Tesla one day. In 2018 I bought my first car which I still own, the Tesla model 3.
You should get a teardown skin for it before you sell it 😂
Still as gorgeous as the day it came off the assembly line and the proceeds are going to a great cause.
Would hope so after living in a ac climate control garage. But the door bushings being worn out is a sign of low quality parts. Probably lots more wrong with the tesla cart.
@@Dat_Sun as Elon freely admits, they may have been "the iconic car" that made Tesla what it is today but there was a lot of lessons learnt while building that model that ensured the later models were a more polished and reliable experience.
@@hot_wheelz That has not been the case. Have you looked at the welds underneath of a Tesla? It's china grade construction, sad times we live in when this mass production e waste is looked at as the future when it's junk.
@@Dat_Sun hey I didn't say that they are the most high quality motor vehicle that money can buy, just that they learnt a lot of lessons during the process of producing this vehicle that went into process improvements in future models which is all demonstrably true.
Awesome job zack thumb up .
Cant remember seeing any footage of the wedding if it even existed before (to the public) but i just cant help but notice how amazing it is that you carried her to the roadster. You look so prowd
Hope you two will be and stay happy
And I’m waiting to hear that the new iPhone scratches at level 6 with deeper grooves at level 7
Still a beautiful car even though its 14 years old
Well, the body is a Lotus Elise with the Tesla logo and that design is pretty timeless.
@@bjrn-oskarrnning2740 Lotus Evora
This and the holy trinity are truly timeless
It's a Lotus Elise
You brought tears to my eye's, born and raised in Utah. Provo/Orem area. Used to ski at Mount Timpanogos before it was sold to Robert Redford who named it Sundance.
The design looks so nice
I've got deep criticisms of Elon and Tesla. But still cool to see how this was made
Go whine to your boyfriend.
@@xploration1437 You having a bad day?
@@logitech4873 just confused why haters watch this stuff.
@@xploration1437 Because they're subscribed to this channel? He has millons of subs.
It's kind of weird how it upsets you that someone has criticisms about Elon and Tesla, even when the guy says he still thought watching a video about the car is cool.
Should people not have criticisms? I also have criticisms of Elon and Tesla. Heck, Zach the owner of this channel does as well - he's not exactly Elon-positive.
@@logitech4873 ok, 🐈💨
I just love how you carried your wife through the isle at your wedding. You are so awesome ❤️
Great video!
"Lets here it start Zack" 0:15 had me dying 🤣
This presents an ideal moment for Doug and his Cars & Bids platform! 🚗✨ Imagine having a video of Doug personally inspecting the car. 📹🔍
Hes already using a rival platform? Watch the end
Just me who didnt know Jerry owned one?
The door squeaky noise 😂👌❤️
Kinda glad ev swapped lotus's were more popular than ls swapped ones
Glad you got plenty of time to enjoy your telsa, jerryrig
"Let's hear her start Zack"... little did he know it was an electric car lol
Yes, we all expected him to fly out past the moon and bring that specific Roadster back. Fully sponsored by SpaceX of course.
It's in the asteroid belt now
Squeaky door just adds to the Petina !
3in1 for that door noise will be sweet 😊
Thank you Jerry for taking something so big out of your life so that you can build these affordable wheelchairs.
The title is not misleading! How did you think he had the real one! 😅
The squeaky door makes my cartlook at me every time
Always loved the first roadster if i had the money i would import it to South Africa
It’s a sad but good reason to sell, respect to you
What´s with the BS-clickbait title? Your better then this... or maybe not apparently...
Wow, Wheelchair business-how admirable and honorable-bless u for that🙏🏻
That door squeak lol
The car that "sparked the modern EV era." Thank you Elon. Even with all your flaws, thank you.
I would really like to have an insight to this skill of yours because my portfolio shows little to no progress
No doubt Mr Jonathan Lewis trading service are really great, I invested $5000 and cashed out $39,700 on just 3weeks.
I've seen lots of good comments on this man, I think I'll give it a try I'll contact him immediately I lost quite a lot of funds when I sold off all my coins few months ago. I could really use some professional advice at this point.
