First S85D sighting

Not sure if this is the first sighting of a production S85D in the wild, but right now there's a newly-built white S85D at the Hawthorne supercharger:

The VIN is 5YJSA1H20EFP68286. That seems to decode to an 85D. Probably good news for folks waiting for the first 85D deliveries.

Also next to this car there's a regular 85 and a red P85D that seems to belong to a very special someone:

I find it interesting that this car has a higher sequence number than my 85D order (67071) and also still sports a 2014 VIN. Yes I know they don't make cars in VIN sequence number order.

If this car has the 2 bucket back seats instead of the bench it also has an incorrect VIN. The 1 in the VIN should be a 3 for that. So I'd guess they put a different rear seat setup just for the car show than what the car was built with.
