Any concerns/thoughts with this one? Might make a play on it....
Just FYI, this was previously advertised as a Signature 100 car, but it isn't. It's VIN V00024, so this is Validation Prototype 24, not Sig 24. The Sigs have another "0" in place of the "V", so Sig 24's VIN would end in 000024. Founder's Editions will have an "F" in place of the "V"

Great info. Wondering - Does this have some impact on value (It being a validation prototype versus a normal production run 2008? Meaning is it worth less or carry some kind of knock/stigma on it for being so? Thanks for great help! Still mulling it over

The mileage is correct. I listed it as about 15,000 in part because I expected to drive it some more, and if I put another 100 miles on it I didn't want to be claiming fewer miles than it might have at the time of sale. But once I had the Model 3 I never drove the Roadster again.

I also sent the Taylor mesh top along with it, in addition to the OEM soft top, but I guess it's up to the new owner whether he sells it with that or offers it with a different Roadster. Maybe he'll keep it for his own Roadster, if he has one of his own. I would.
