Real Time Tesla Roadster Tracker. This is cool.

I wonder if someone can calculate an estimate when it's trajectory is going to collide with a planet ...
You can calculate when it will come close, but there are too many things to account for to calculate an actual collision. Anyway, space is very big, the only large things it could collide with given its orbit are Earth and Luna. "Never" is probably the correct answer; it's more likely to be destroyed in a minor collision or have its orbit perturbed in a way that sends it somewhere else.
 
The site says: "Close Approach of Mars on October 6, 2020 at a distance of 0.049 AU." Which is to say that this Roadster will get nearly all the way to Mars most likely before Tesla manages to deliver to me my new Roadster. :)
