Hey Kitk, that's a beautiful vehicle! I'm not a big black fan, but I surely think I could become one, now. Thanks for posting (from Virginia)

Model S P85 (#2817)
VIN 2817 is home and juicing up in my garage! We picked it up at the factory this afternoon. After I've driven it for a few days, I'll post some impressions of the car. The quick take away is that when you press the "go" pedal, the car really "goes".
A few quick observations:
During the factory tour, our guide mentioned that the manufacturing team was given time off for the 24-26th, which I was glad to hear. So while no assembly was going on while we were there, the tour was still amazing. The scale of operation and how much they have accomplished in such little time is impressive. We also did get to see a few things you can't normally see when the factory is operating because they would normally be off limits. For example, the super charger they use to top off the cars towards the end of final assembly. For those who care about such things there were plenty of 21" wheels in both colors, so no shortage there. He also mentioned that the battery/drive train team is working 3 shifts. So I hope that is a good sign for those waiting on 60 kWh battery packs.
The final interesting note is that my parents were in town so we took them along for the factory pickup. After the tour of the factory and his first ride in my vehicle, my dad flipped from being a major doubter to a believer over the course of an hour. He has never seen the car, and thought it was some kind of super-sized golf cart, and couldn't believe how much I was paying. All he has said since is "this car is the future, all cars will be like this soon...".

Not sure if this is the best thread for this but I didn't feel it was worthy of a new thread.
My delivery is expected on Saturday. I was asked if I wanted a Tesla DS to arrive for a walkthrough (sometime within a few days of delivery) or if I'd be OK with a "virtual" walkthrough. I said virtual was fine, since I already know a lot about the car and thought I could save Tesla some time/money. They put me in touch with some Tesla folks who would be available for any questions about the car, and also sent a link to a 25 minute video walkthrough of the car.
The video is currently private as Tesla just finished it (sent me a password for viewing). It would be great for someone who hasn't lived on this forum for the last three years, but since that doesn't describe me I didn't get too much new out of it. (Some good video of the touchscreen though).
Anyway, I'm not going to share the password here as I don't have permission--but it looks like Tesla will release it to the public soon.

I'd really like to pass this around to friends, family, and word-of-mouth reservation candidates. I'm definitely looking forward to the public release.Tesla ... sent a link to a 25 minute video walkthrough of the car.

It's very similar to Ben's (cinergi's) videos in content--just done more professionally.

Congratulations! This is the highest delivered VIN I've seen so far on the forums. I sure would like to see the factory, but I can't complain about the great personal home delivery treatment we received last week.

VIN 2559 (P5428) should be home in 7-10 days. Here is the email from my DS today .."Your car has been given the green light and will leave today!! We expect 7-10 days for delivery to GA. You will receive a call from the truck driver when he is one to two days away, at which time you will schedule a time for delivery. ".
