    I know this one has been listed in this thread but here's a new picture from a colleague of mine yesterday. Car was on Lexington Ave between 46th & 47th yesterday afternoon. Do "we" know who owns OHM RUN? Apparently some gruff security guy tried to stop my friend taking pictures but she charmed him somehow. She also said that the car looked "completely huggable!". Hmmm.

    You can find an almost identical picture, same spot but with hard top, by googling "tesla ohm run" which leads to this page. There's a better shot of the same car here.

    I suppose a flashy Roadster like that parked in such a busy location is going to have its' picture taken a lot!

    I saw a dark blue one with Washington plates on Thursday in Campbell River, BC. I didn't get a picture or the plate number but it was parked at the mall and the top was off.

    That's a Seattle owner I know. I told him he's been sighted.

    I'm not the only guy in the village!

    After driving my Tesla for two years I saw the first one out-and-about! 2.0 black, black wheels, black roof, tan interior, NJ plates spied at the Trump National Bedminster last week.

    I'm no longer alone in this corner of NJ but I didn't get to see the owner; I grabbed lunch and they were gone before I finished.

    When you park next to someone are they bemused or excited that there is another Tesla in town or are the bummed they are no longer the only one?

    You need to print up TMC cards to put in the window!

    The world loves to be deceived.

    When I parked next to a Lotus Exige, they were annoyed. But that was because their car was no longer the center of attention.

    You know, I don't know. We're all excited about seeing them but maybe the other guy just thought; "Oh, idiot in the silver car's parked too close."

    If it were me, I would have left a friendly note under your wiper before leaving. Maybe he didn't have a pen.

    It must have been a pain for him charging up here.
