I definitely meant "a new Tesla" from the perspective of the drive train. Obviously an old car is gonna be an old car. And if the car is otherwise falling apart with the interior plastics crumbling from uv damage, replacing the battery is the least concern. Most would just consider the car dead at that point. But that's why I don't understand why you seem to assume a Tesla needing a new battery and a worn out interior/exterior/suspension is going to be $10k. Where's the data? Do you actually have listings of Teslas with dead batteries for $10k?
