... hmmm P105 + 500 Signature US + 500 Signature EU ....

does that mean the 1000 pcs. Signature Edition's are sold ?

+ at least 105 more ....

There are supposed to be 1000 Signature models for the US and 1000 for Europe so 2000 total.

There are supposed to be 1000 Signature models for the US and 1000 for Europe so 2000 total.

I think they will have trouble getting 2,000 of those Signature models sold with $40,000 deposits required and so little info provided on options included and final cost.

I remember when each model year was going to have a limit of 2,000 (40 per week) Roadsters produced. Then it was 1,500 per year (30 per week).
Now they seem to be aiming at 500 per year.

Moral of the story: It is likely not going to be 2,000 Signature cars for the Model S.

While I mostly agree with your Roadster observation I don't agree that it transfers over to the S. Different car, different market, and most importantly, no one outside the car community knows about it yet.

edit to add: The Economy!!

 

[neopav]

Well, finally Tesla has sent also to its european customers the sequence numbers...
And S3 is coming to ITALY!!! Yuuhuuuu!

 

[Gunnar]

I got R1. I guess that's pretty good. :tongue:

 

[Cobos]

Congratulations Gunnar. That means you'll probably get one of the very first Model S then in Norway... Very envious...

Whoa! Not bad. I guess I won't even be in the "R" queue, buying a Roadster this late

Not true, call Tesla. You can get on the R list as a Roadster owner...

 

[daghb]

Not true, call Tesla. You can get on the R list as a Roadster owner...

Well, I will of course try... Thanks

Production Number Resale

Anyone heard of low production numbers being offered for sale? Is it even legal?

 

[Gunnar]

Just got another email. I will also get SS1.

 

[Cobos]

Wow that is the Signature Edition Model S and the first one in Europe. Congrats! Is that you personally or Ferdinand Motors ?

Thanks for the R3, Gunnar!

1375 and waiting!

I just joined the waiting list and got sequence #1375. I hope they will be able to make more than 1000 a year, it would be painful to have to wait all the way to 2013 to see my Tesla!

 

[Iz]

I just joined the waiting list and got sequence #1375.

If you recently received the sequence # then Tesla has taken reservations for 34 Model S vehicles in the past 2 weeks.

 

[BS Mann]

I got 1375 assigned on 11/10/09, looking forward to joining the Tesla community, i live 2 miles from the new Tesla headquarters in Palo Alto CA

 

[dpeilow]

From here.

Tesla said close to 2,000 people have paid a refundable $5,000 fee to reserve one of the vehicles.

 

[roblab]

~2000 people have paid $5000

That's about 10 million bucks.
But also, about ~100 have paid $40,000.
That's not a shabby 4 million bucks.
So we few who have ordered an Sig S are
also able to help get these cars
on the road. And possibly the Sig owners
are the bigger showoffs. Who knows? Sells
more cars down the road.
