How many Model S vehicles will be delivered during June 22nd event?

I am taking a stab in the dark, however I seem to recall poster @Laurent avatar listed his/her reservation spot as S2; it's no longer listed that way thou. Maybe Laurent can chime in if he/she will be attending the June 22nd event. Of course he/she might have been asked by Tesla to be silent about the event.

Elon said that there would be 10 car deliveries on June 22nd to non-employees which I took to mean regular sig reservation holders.

ditto. I know Founders aren't all employees, but I took it to mean real customers outside of any Tesla connection. I do wonder if the other 32ish will be delivered before next Friday though.

+1. It is entirely possible that the founders cars are being (have been) delivered. My take on it is that some of these people are reviewing, as has been stated by Elon, the possible final tweaks necessary for production. These next couple of weeks are crucial in amassing that analysis and feedback, then modifying what needs to be modified so that the first 10 receive the benefits of said analysis. I wouldn't think that all of this work is to be shouldered by two people.

I took the comment in the post on June 5th (Inside Tesla - 06.05.12 | Blog | Tesla Motors) to mean it is possible the founders will receive their cars before the event. Meaning on Friday they delivered to one of their board of directors and then on Saturday to Elon. I know it's only 2, but who knows. I don't know if those 2 are "founders" cars, but I am assuming they are.

If they had all the founders there and 10 signature customers that would be a VERY impressive 50 cars at the event !!! Sweet if you ask me. And fits in pretty nicely with the 10's number that Elon stated as well.

Well, it seems Steve Jurvetson received #1 on June 8 according to a post by widodh over here, Amber rear turn signals?. So it doesn't sound like they will be handing out the Founder's Series on June 22.

They can still have them there. 50 cars lined up would be a very impressive start.
