      Hey man, ive never worked on a tesla, but i spent 2 and a half years and over $6000 in parts building my own daily driver from the ground up. The pain you speak of is true, a project like this is not for the weak at heart, people need to think twice before taking something like this on.

      Pearce Pedro I rode in a P100d and after going 0-60 in 2.3 seconds and completely felt the price was reasonable. Considering how much money I'd save on gas in addition to autonomous driving plus how vastly superior batteries are to gas engines, I can't wait to get a Tesla.

    I bought one flooded for 24000 usd, Fixed and sold for 116000. Was totaly flooded totaly submerged. cost 18000 in spare parts. Teslas are worth more then Gold in Russia and Ukraine. As import taxes are more then 95000 usd for a Ready to drive tesla its cheaper to diy one.

    • @crasy4lifes
      @crasy4lifes 6 лет назад +9

      No, they have to be registered as Fixed Cars. a brand new tesla cost 160k in Russia. but i just bribed the Registration office so it was practically brand new, In eastern europe you dont sell a car just becouse its little broken, im sure that tesla will be on the road for 30 years. i have a volvo from 1974 that is my driver with just 2 owners. we have the mentally that there is more places to repair shoes that coffee places and mc Donalds.

    Hi Car Guru, I pranked my neighbor, put a brick on the accelerator of his Tesla and told him to watch the self driving mode from the outside. He has a lake front property and his car is now unfortunately flooded. He wasn’t too happy about it but I told him I saw this guy on RUclips that fixes flooded Tesla’s. He tried calling his insurance company but they said the car was totaled and wouldn’t pay him since he wasn’t inside the vehicle when it flooded and the vehicle was moving. His wife divorced him (ex wife now) and was able to keep their kids and the lake front property. He is pretty bummed out and started drinking heavily, but he was able to have the Tesla lifted to a parking spot at his new apartment, thankfully since that’s now his only possession since the divorce shenanigans didn’t go his way. Would you please help him out? He said he will pay you as soon as he can find a job and have a vehicle to take him there.

      1. fill the tesla with rice.
      2. When the car starts working again put it in sauna mode
      3. now that he has a shitload of steamcooked rice throw a party
      4. girls in bikini will join the rice party and will jump into the lake.
      5. pick and choose a new girlfriend/ have good memories about the lake again/ and have a good working tesla
      it is all that simple, no need to go to the hassle like carguru.
      p.s. sell the tesla to carguru for next to nothing when it fails again at the end of the street (I like his tech videos)

      Cause you can fix it and sell it as brand new grandma driven for $90k.
      Can't do that with shitty §300 car.

      Because many people want a discounted Tesla, because they are cool, people will pay the 30k.
      While an ordinary 20 year old car is not cool, even though it has been maintained, and is perfectly reliable. I own one like that.

      @@tstrrtstrr745 with the money and time you save by buying the cheapo car you can invest in a stock portfolio and work a second job. You'd make bank, far more than you would fixing a Tesla as one man. Like he said in his other videos the only reason he does this is because it's his hobby.

    Do you think the bidding on Copart is a scam? Why would someone in the Ukraine bid on low value cars (I see this from the UK), the cost of shipping would be at least the value of the car itself. I feel like I'm bidding against staff members inside Copart half the time.

    This is not a PSA. This is someone who is unhappy with the law of supply and demand. You just want to gets expensive cars on the cheap. Here is a little insight on how the economy works. If lots of people want the same thing, the price goes through the roof. This youtuber needs to take a 7th grade economics class.

    • @SianaGearz
      @SianaGearz 6 лет назад +7

      These totalled Teslas have become a bubble, there's a temporary spike in demand, because the market usually overcorrects. If it didn't, there wouldn't be any sharp variation like that, it would be more medium term. Correspondingly people who pay today's prices are going to be fairly unhappy soon.

    • @wrecksandtech
      @wrecksandtech 6 лет назад +4

      Siana Gearz there is no such thing as a market bubble in the salvage car business. You see you supply cannot be manipulated due to demand. What are they going to do, force people to crash their $90,000 car? As with any type of auction, product is set long before the first bid is placed. Imagine finding out a historical artifacts sold at auction for an extremely high price. You can’t just go out and get more just because it sold well. Its the same concept for auto auctions. The inventory is set in stone before ever being presented to the public.

    • @shepd3
      @shepd3 6 лет назад +8

      If people pay more for a salvage Tesla than a new one, it's a bubble. Unless there's something I'm missing and salvage is more desirable than factory fresh with the sticker still on it.
