Got my order in at 8:19 am. Got call from Tesla at 1 pm. There doing good so far.
Tesla would not accept my order until the web site went up, and that took all day Thursday. By that time, I called Menlo Park and had arranged to be there with cash at 10AM Friday. I want to be in the Signature Series, even tho' I am not a present Roadster owner, so it's harder to do. But the cash seemed to be a fun thing to do with them. I have a lot of faith in them, and I think their car will probably be setting the bar for quite a while.
I got email confirmation of my order at 5:30 Thursday evening. I faxed the paperwork in at around 6:00 PM. Got phone confirmation a couple hours later. I'm not a roadster owner, nor am I getting a signature series, so I don't know how I'll fit in the order lineup. But I'm patient, I can wait for this car.
I think you will be soon after #1000 (or #2000 if they do 1,000 signature series in Europe also).
I read in the order process that the build order owner assignment is based on when the form was faxed it. I asked Tesla about this Fri at 1 pm and they were not sure of my build number. They had 1000 people contact them that morning for info and/or to place deposits. I was told I am one of the first depositors for the midwest. Minus all the signature cars.
A little update.
I got my call from a nice guy named Kevin Daly with Tesla in Chicago who will be my rep. He confirmed that my reservation is in and that I was one of the first 400 who signed up in the initial 24 hours when they started taking reservations.
He also said that official numbers will be out later this week, but they expect that they'll have 1000 reservations in the first week!!
Same thing I was told by the same rep. He was in the Chicago office and said it should be open by late spring. I plan to go down there in June.
I suspect an interesting announcment tomorrow from DC.
Watch out for "April Fool's"
