Also a ton of pictures.
I doubt they'll have any CF interiors there yet, but please search and ask anyway.

Welcome Dean,

I'm #500 and we took deliverly 6/4 but we were the last 2008. I'm sure they have a ton of work to do to integrate all the changes (hidden and obvious) for the 2010s.

Dr Taras and I are are tooling around in your neck of the woods quite often. What colors did you order?

Adam at the LA store has been very nice, but when I pressed them about a delivery date all I got was "soon" and "hopefully the beginning of July". I might just pick up the phone and call Menlo Park to get a better answer.

Ditto and Ditto. I don't know that they realize how valuable information is in soothing the eager customer. If you find anything out at all, please let us in on the secret.

I once saw Ian parked EXTREMELY close to my home, and I once shouted to him from behind on Topanga Canyon. We also exchanged a few e-mails, but we haven't officially met though. Good to meet you too. Where are you located? As for my car color -- presently it's invisible.

I saw your earlier post, which prompted me to inquire with Adam if there really was a shipment scheduled for this weekend. I'm still not going to hold my breath for a July 5th delivery -- especially since that's a Sunday and a holiday weekend to boot.

We waited 12 days short of 24 months. The last 2 are the most excruciating.

Sorry you missed the rally!

Just got off the phone with Ted at corporate about the delivery status of my car (and the other first batch of 2010's). He read me the production notes which said it still needed some minor adjustments of a few latches, but not much else. He also said he was going to walk over to the production line in a bit and find out more details on when it should be ready for delivery. He did say he knew we were all excited and wanted to know more information. I'll post what he tells me after he talks to production later..... it's getting close :)

After having waited 30 months for mine, yeah, the last few weeks just seemed to drag on.

It. Was. So. Worth. It!

Ted was nice enough to call me back this afternoon with another status update. He said they are still waiting on a few interior pieces from a supplier to show up. They hoped they would arrive by this afternoon. Otherwise, the first batch of 2010 cars should be completed by next week and hopefully on a truck for a delivery. Let's hope everything goes as planned.

First batch? As in 50 Roadsters? Or maybe 53 Roadsters to be exact? VIN 553?
