Highest production VIN in the wild

Just spotted VIN 5347 in Louisville, KY near the intersection of I-64 and I-265. I'm hoping that it was delivered to a local so I can see it again. Being a mid-US non-owner reservation holder, it was nice to finally see one in the wild.

If you haven't seen, a user on Facebook M3OC just posted he got 9923.
Overall, that's pretty poor progress. As we have seen in the past, it takes Tesla long time to fill up VIN gaps from the past, so I'm suspecting there may be couple Ks still missing. With 3 weeks left in March, I believe they'll deliver a total of 10K by the end of Q1 at the current pace. Minus 1550 from Q4 2017, that's like 8K total for Q1 or average of 700/week for the 12+ weeks after telling us they reached 1k/week in December... I don't see this as something worth celebrating.

You can’t subtract out those that were produced last quarter unless you add in those produced but not delivered this quarter. That would be a meaningless number. Either you track vehicles produced, or you track vehicles delivered. Your method mashes up the two in the most negative light possible.
