"White Performance Interior" <== this is new to me: how does this differ from "White Interior"???????

I believe it refers to the seats with the alcantara accents and the grey piping.

Today's weather: Sun with clouds and a chance of rain or snow. Temperatures between -40 and +100. Winds will be between 0 and 100 mph.

This of course makes me think of George Carlin...

Tonight: dark. Continued dark overnight, with widely scattered light by morning.

Good one! If you remember George Carlin you may be giving away your age

It's worse than that... it was very early Carlin, from the late 60s and early 70s.
Wait, I think I just dated myself toooooo

What is happening to the signature dates... they are all screwed up showing days instead of months and wrong even on that...

For context, in Elon's most recent interview his expectation was that they would build 80 cars this week, after building 40 last week.

Which interview are you referring to?

Yes, that is the highest VIN number listed so far, but it does tell us something about the production rate. Interesting that the delivery windows have stayed pretty much the same over the last week or so.

Well I responded to the 'Your Model S Delivery!' e-mail on Sept. 1st with all the information. It looks like it wasn't passed along for final paperwork so I got ahold of the new person taking care of Texas and sent it again. They also never asked for the money so sent that today. My car probably could have been on a truck last week if I had know all of this. Oh well, it'll get here eventually.

It looks like Tesla will very likely have produced over 500 cars this quarter. Delivered....probably not quite. Regardless, I don't think they're too far off from their goal rates.
