A trio of brand-new Teslas that were sitting in shipping containers on a Chinese dock since 2010 are about to be sold for a record amount.
The Roadsters were recently discovered in the city of Quingdao, having never been picked up by their buyer.
They were reportedly ordered by a Chinese startup electric car company that went bankrupt before it could claim them, presumably to reverse engineer the vehicles to assist with the development of its products.
Phoenix-based Tesla specialist Gruber Motor Company is handling their sale and accepting bids.

The Roadster was built from 2008 through 2012, and in 2010, had starting prices of $109,000 for Base models and $128,000 for Sports in the U.S.
