OK, I couldn't resist. Dwarfed by a Model T! 😂

Thanks DeedWest! The Arctic White on VP24 is a head turner for sure! Sorry you missed mine while it was with Carl - he did a nice job of getting it back in shape and ready for display.

The AMI is definitely a classic beauty! As an aside, I got word yesterday the museum has added a little something to the exhibit. They now have a "correct" vintage gas pump by the Model T to go along with the pedestal mounted Tesla wall charger by the Roadster. I am actually a bit excited...

Timothy - It is a neat museum and the Rocket 88 is a very cool car. Love that you have some classic Memphis music on your classic jukebox. I bet its a beauty!

My Roadster is on loan to the Edge Motor Museum in Memphis. They recently unveiled it in a prominent display. It is paired with a Model T in a “where we have come from and where we are going” kind of exhibit. The Memphis Tesla club met at the museum for the unveiling. I thought this group...

OK, just adding a report. I took delivery of a new P100D in December 2017. Front rattles about half the time when on imperfect ( I wouldn't even say rough) pavement or bumps. Occasionally this is accompanied by mild vibration in the steering wheel (not the lane departure warning - I know the...

mknox: I like with your idea of a "Favorites Bar". I do spend a fair amount of time clicking through the sames sets of commands. If I had seen your idea before passing my suggestions on to Tesla, I would have included it. Next time!

This repeats some from above, but these are some comments I passed on to Tesla after a couple of weeks of driving: It would be huge if the car would remember to go to Very High as you approach home and stay there until you leave. I have to remember to get and stay below 9mph and put it on Very...

ddruz, I am having a problem with that. At delivery, I believe I was getting full volume - I am not positive, but we played with the Fade/Balance touchscreen and didn't notice any drop off. Now, when I fade from front to rear, I lose about 90% of my volume. I have reported to my delivery...

SSL 173 (VIN 234) is delivered in Memphis.

Today's the DAY!!! My Model S is on a truck about 3 hours from my house. Delivery scheduled mid-afternoon! SSL 173, VIN 234 delivering to Memphis, TN on a rainy early October day almost exactly 3 years after my Roadster was delivered on a rainy early October afternoon. - - - Updated - - -...

SSL 173 now I have VIN - 234. Was hoping to update with an actual delivery date, but still waiting.

epley, Mine is a Signature Red Performance, Pano, Spoiler, 21" Silver, White Interior, Obeche Gloss, Parcel Shelf and Paint Armor. Nothing unusual there. However, I am in Memphis and will receive from Houston. Puts me in sort of a Tesla desert with no other owners nearby which may be...

Sorry to be slow to post, but have been travelling. I got my call on Friday night! Delivery window 9/26 to 10/15 for SSL173.

October 2009 Roadster Arrives!

Ben, if you still have your original email, you can confirm there. At the time I reserved, I got an email (subject line: Your Model S Reservation Sequence Number) that contained the following sentence: Your Reservation Sequence number is 173 of the Signature Special reservation list.

Everyone may have noticed, but this from the TM Forum (under Average age of a Tesla Model S owner): Butch | August 18, 2012 Thank you, DickB; I am #2 at 59. Delivery of SSL#40 scheduled for 8/28!

Pretty well. There have been some issues - at first a bunch of little things that I would put down to it being a prototype, more recently a bad battery connection required shipping the car to Chicago for repair. Overall, I would say it is pretty similar to my service experience on my last...

In Amsterdam. My wife had broken her foot and accused me of letting her go rolling down toward the canal when I spotted the Roadster! Might have happened.

I believe it was $99,900. I bought direct from Tesla without waiting in line. It had not been titled, but had 7,200 hard miles doing the press tour. On the plus side, I have a framed copy of the Road and Track article featuring my car! Kind of fun:wink:

I bought one of the validation prototypes from the company. It has a "V" series VIN.

From Memphis - Roadster owner (V23) and on the Model S Signature Special List at #173. Configured in May with Signature Red, Performance, White Interior, 21" Silver Wheels, Pano Roof, Carbon Fiber Spoiler, Gloss Wood, and Paint Armor. Anxiously awaiting word on a delivery date while lurking on...

Not much of a poster, but would call my rep every day for a delivery update if they were getting them! BTW, I dont know how to get it under my name, but Roadster V23 and Model S SSL173. Lurking on all boards Tesla!

Eric, really appreciate the post - more fun than reading about communication issues. Any idea of the reservation numbers/VINs? Thanks!
