Model S 2013 - 160,000KM - $13K

If legit, wtf? Someone hates Musk/Tesla that much? Or with 160,000KM on it, its simply market value?

Not finding any other Model S's for under 25K so far.
A bit of both....
If they're in Whistler for a season, they probably own property there.
At the same time, early Model S do have a TON of inevitable problems.

Large RWD rear motors in S70 almost always fail, must get a "D" model to avoid.
Unclear if the MCU was replaced which is a 3-4k repair for the screen/computer unit.
Suspension arm / air suspension failure.
Door handles at 1k a pop.
Battery BMS is terrible, pack replacement in 6-7 years is common (this one had it done).

Pre 2021 Tesla means no heat pump, limited regen when cold and hella range loss from heat.
No "autopilot" also means no adaptive cruise control.
