Oops! sorry. I will probably not check back to see what's been included. It will get too time consuming. Perhaps just giving perodic compelations to homoginize this list will suffice.

Also, we both listed Cameron Diaz, but she deserves to be on here twice. (Heck, she should buy 2)

Yes but mine had a link to a picture. Surely worth a re-mention for that!

Well that was vauge enough to be "not helpful".

It's fun just to speculate. Being right is just icing on the cake. :)

Flea the bass player for The Red Hot Chili Peppers was mentioned here:

I don't see Michael Marks on the list. From Martin's blog, "Michael Marks is an early investor, a Signature 100 customer, and someone I have known and admired for many years." (I'm guessing he recently got bumped up on the list).

And I thought Elon got car #1 while Martin got car #2. There's a couple of interviews out there, which I can't find right now, where Mr. Musk mentions that.

While we're bringing up who should have a Roadster, how about Erin Esurance?
