YAY!!!

Hi All, this is a great thread to be watching. I live in California and I'm planning a 4,100 mile trip up the west coast into Vancouver Island, then over to Kelowna and Kamloops. At that point, I'd love to go north to Tete Jaune Cache then east to Jasper. As everyone on this thread knows...

I'm looking forward to driving this bad boy and then pulling up beside a truck that wants to roll some coal! That will be fun!!!

Elon totally lost it after the glass broke. He kept looking over his shoulder in disbelief. Probably easier to see a rocket topple into the ocean than seeing the glass break. Twice. He was visibly shaken. It won't happen again.

I ordered two. Didn't take a screen shot of the first order - the second order is 1127966xx. The last digit could be a check-digit ...

I ordered a single motor and received confirmation number. Also, payment went through on my Applecard so it works. After reflecting, I ordered another with the dual motor, thinking the dual motor may ship first. The low cost entry level could be like the $35k Model 3. It is $100 ticket to...

I want to do this quickly and easily. Tesla Energy can't do anything this year and the SGIP is oversubscribed for Tesla. Yes, I'd love to get a PowerWall and Gateway from someone that earned it through a referral.

I would like to buy a PowerWall 2 and Gateway. I have a reservation for a PowerWall but haven't been able to get Tesla Energy to set a delivery date. My house is prewired for a set of two PowerWalls and the Gateway. Since I live near a fire department my power rarely goes off and, when it...

Picking up silver metallic VIN 1823 in less than an hour ...

I am picking up my Model 3 at 6:45 pm tonight!

They should complete your Model S before shutting down for a couple weeks. Better that it is built before the shut down.

maxwells, your P85 should start production on June 13 (Friday), complete production on June 17 (Tuesday, which is three working days, not counting Saturday and Sunday) and be ready for delivery in Fremont on June 19 (Thursday). If your P85 goes into production on Friday, your delivery could...

Supercharging becomes the 'standard' and other manufacturers can help scale the charging infrastructure throughout the world. Charging is a huge barrier to EV adoption so open sourcing patents allows more charging infrastructure to be built, reducing a barrier to growth.

Did your S85 start and finish production already?

I like your table, and your forecasts. Given the recent deliveries of RHD in UK, what are the UK numbers in your forecast for Q2, Q3 and Q4? Also, how many deliveries do you forecast for Norway?

You may consider asking for a Factory delivery on 06/30 ...

It looks like OLL has the highest VIN (46457) with a June delivery:

Any idea of the VIN range for the China deliveries to date? That would give everyone an idea of the production time range and transport times to China.

The Town of Los Gatos, California has six Chargepoint stations in four public parking locations. They charge a flat rate of $2.50 per charge but the parking stalls in front of each charging station are not specified for electric vehicles only. Anyone can park in front of the charging stations...

Thank you for posting the video of the Supercharger ... I read the original article and thought it was way off and then followed the various banters back and forth. The one question that I had was, how easy is it to locate the Superchargers? Intuitively, I knew that TSLA wouldn't 'hide' the...

I had it in my calendar that TSLA was to release their Q4 results today (02/11/13) and I am signed up for e-mail alerts on all press releases. So far, the only date appears to be on the NASDAQ web site, which states the earnings report is *expected* to be released on 02/13/13. It is...

+1 That is the value proposition for the HPWCs at the Supercharger locations.

Sounds like you have the 'Tesla grin'!

The VIN is exposed, on the car for everyone to see, similar to a license plate.

I was at Menlo Park on Tuesday morning and snapped a couple photos of the inventory in the back.

Oh ...

Congratulations! The last Canadian Signature has been delivered!!! Pictures to follow?

Do you have a 40 kWh battery? If so, I believe you will be one of the first 40 kWh batteries.

I happened to read the post and noted that it was flagged for moderation. The posting didn't say anything useful and was somewhat dramatic. Having time to submit a posting like that and then dashing off without completing the posting doesn't seem appropriate to me. I don't like censorship...

Yours is the last reported delivery in 2012. Congratulations!

Thank you. The last reported 2012 VIN (C in digit 10) was 3260 (HFh) and the first reported 2013 VIN (D) was 3277 (Meursault) so the highest VIN with C could be 3276. Half way between is 3268.

From a financial accounting perspective, one needs to look at TSLA's revenue recognition policy. TSLA recognizes revenue as follows (from their Q3-12 10-Q report): Revenue Recognition We recognize revenues from sales of Model S and the Tesla Roadster, including vehicle options and...

Thank you for letting me know. I've updated the table- please see the first post in this thread (#1).

From the posts to date, it looks like 3429 is the highest VIN observed in production in 2012. For other statistics, see TMC Model S Statistics for 2012.

Looks like you have the highest VIN that was put on a truck in 2012. See TMC Model S Statistics for 2012

Model S Production and Delivery Statistics for 2012 As 2012 now is behind us, it may be time to summarize certain 'statistics' for the Model S. Many people ask questions in other threads and having certain statistics may help others new to the Model S and TMC. Also, there are several threads...

That sucks. What is your reservation number and your VIN?

If you want to use the Supercharger in Gilroy then, I believe, you need to take 101 South to Gilroy and then decide how to cut over to I-5.

FlasherZ is right on the money with this observation. Imagine, for a moment, how the press will react when they get to report on the first house fire and fatality caused by an electric car charging station installed in a house. It will be far more damaging than Fisker fires and other...

Very cool. The robots sound fascinating! VINs in the 3150 range indicate that total production of COMPLETED Model S vehicles in 2012 of 3,143 is achievable if not a bit high.

I've been wondering how this situation will play out. On one hand, the buyer wants to obtain the $7,500 federal tax credit AND Tesla wants to recognize revenue for the sale of the Model S in 2012. Tesla's revenue recognition policy states: So, under Tesla's revenue recognition policy...

When do you have to make the final payment for a Canadian Signature home delivery? Before it is delivered? A few days before delivery? At delivery?

Excellent!

Doesn't AnOutsider have VIN 1084?

Congratulations! Nice tip.

Congratulations ShortArc! If possible, please share your VIN with us. Thanks!

I was wondering if it was a P series (vs R). If it was a P then I was curious if it was one of the 12xx cars.

Larry, did you happen to catch the VIN on the Sunset Red? It would be interesting to know where in the production sequence this car was manufactured.

Great report! Couple questions (for your memory!). You were in the factory on Saturday - did it seem like a 'regular' production day? Did it appear that all areas of the factory were working an 'overtime' shift? Or, were certain areas working a six day week? Do you think they are...
