Check out a crashed Tesla that became a luxury restomod

YouTuber David Andreyev procured a salvaged Tesla Model 3 and spent three years and $4.5 million turning it into his dream EV.

The car is now known as the CyberRoadster, a nod to Tesla’s own never-released second-gen Roadster. We would be surprised if it actually took nearly five million dollars to complete, even with all the custom bodywork. Oh, by the way, the “Roadster” part also doesn’t check out: the car has a fixed roof, even if a little chopped for a sleeker appearance. It also rocks as many as 12 layers of Candy Red paint, making it a real head-turner.

The exterior is basically complete, while the interior remains to be trimmed. The powertrain is fully operational, so we suggest you watch the video to see what this truly unique homegrown build drives like.
