[Yuri_G]

So cool to see VIN numbers over 10,000. Can't wait for this to be announced to the public!

+1. Amazing. Ten months and five days ago the first S rolled off the line.

Very cool... Now this thread will soon fade into obscurity.

I am out - over 10,000 by the meaning of life.

More specifically 10000 + Answer to the Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything

I wonder if someone on the forums will get 10000 or if it will go to some Tesla store as a show car or more likely I suppose some lucky Tesla owner who does not obsessively read about their upcoming car on these forums I agree though that it is amazing how fast Tesla hit 10,000 cars and well before a single car was sold in Europe. Good for them and good for us.

Why's that? Sure we now know 10000 has been assigned. But I thought the point was to find out who has it.

I got it without the clarification....made me laugh Six!! I think 10,000 represents the 10 million years for Deep Thought to come up with the question. So you have a very cool VIN indeed!!

Sort of...the primary point was to get TESLA to give me VIN# 10,000 for starting a thread about it. The secondary point was to hopefully get someone active on these forums assigned that VIN. And the tertiary point is to find out who if the primary and secondary points failed to develop ;-)

We should know soon though!! You would think they would have make some press about it.

Oooh, you got a VIN? That's a great sign that the perf+ cars are really going to be built this coming week. Did you see it from the app or DS?

Performance + are coming!!! My DS sent me an email with my VIN and a happy face. No connection with the app yet.

Maybe TM will make a big deal out of the 10,000th car sold as opposed to VIN #10000 since they have a ton of show cars and now a loaner fleet.

I don't think they will. If they choose to broadcast when the 10,000th car is sold, it immediately will draw a line in the sand about how many sales/deliveries have occurred in the quarter.

 

[jomo25]

Hopefully VIN 10000 isn't just some loaner. Or perhaps it will be the first official loaner.

Didn't the VIN # sequence restart with after Sig and Canada-Sig cars?
If so, then VIN 10,000 would not be the 10,000th car built or sold.
Including Sigs, didn't we pass 10,000 Model S's on the road a while ago?

 

[andrewket]

I'm out too. Issued 1004x.

No, the VINs did not reset. The first production car was around VIN 1350 or so.

You're saying they built 1,350 test mules / prototypes / examples prior to the start of mass production? Damn, that seems like quite a lot.

This is not correct. My VIN is 00693. The test mules were all pre-production. The first production cars were Founders editions, followed by the Sigs, then regular production.

Signature series/get amped cars

Exactly, and the regular production cars started with VINs around 1350 (actually it looks like it was around 1250) just like I said. The VINs did not reset after the Sigs.
