How Many Roadsters are Left?

[IslandRoadster]

How does one determine one's Roadster customer number? Is is the last digits of the VIN? I have a 2011 Roadster 9Still on the road) and the VIN's last 4 digits are 1408. Does that make me customer number 1408? Thank you.

You have Roadster #1408. So yes, you are correct.

I'm #609. No way I'm parting with this thing absent serious financial difficulties.

production customer 1408 in the North America - there were non-US cars as well as cars like Validation Prototypes with a different VIN sequence

Those California HOV/Clean Air Stickers pain me.

Yes you are VIN 1408.

The fact that the value is not decreasing demonstrates the continued desirability and reduced supply. Most cars would be depreciating in value. The fact that Roadsters aren’t is, in part, because of that constrained supply.

What is the 0-60 on these cars. They are really beautiful. I wish Tesla would make a reasonably priced roadster. I'll bet it would be a big hit.

 

[JamesCurran]

But how many of them have been destroyed in accidents or otherwise?

And let's not forget the category of "shot into space".

3.9s for the base model
3.7s for the sport

Elon should put out a new batch of these things. The new roadster (vaporware) just doesn't do it for me.

Imagine an updated one of these originals with the autopilot suite, raven suspension, and better electrical system.

I'd be very, very interested.

 

[LouisGA]

Thanks for the responses. I love mine and likewise would never part with it. However, the range has deteriorated (probably/maybe can get 170 miles in range mode) but I'm on the wait list for the 3.0 battery upgrade (2 years now). Hopefully that will come through some day.

my beloved 2010 Roadster 521 left my ownership in 9/2017, immaculate, with factory hardtop, 12,000 miles. Buyer was what I would call "suspicious" individual(I stupidly allowed car to leave with my plates and he ran up $800 fines on toll roads on my plates)...claimed the accelerator 'stuck' and he piled into some object and destroyed it(funny, never stuck on me)...got email from fellow roadster friend in California with a link to Copart listing of my wrecked baby...broke my heart. Add my roadster to the wrecked list.

There were 19 allocated to Australia and the other day there were 3 advertised on Carsales.com for around AU$150k

Our little Roadie is alive & well! Just got back from her annual checkup. #1256

 

[BridgetCK]

#846, first one imported to Canada, is alive and well on Vancouver Island. Replaced the batteries and PEM last year.

 

[CounsellorTroy]

How would you count Elon's that is floating around in space? It is not on the road, but it should be alive and well.

#516 is in for annual and minor maintenance by Javier at Executive MotorWerkz but still happily running on it's original PEM and battery. After 11 years it finally needs TPMS sensor replacements and trunk struts.
