How many Tesla Model S owners are out there?

I saw 3 (!) on the road this morning. Different colors too -- black, silver, and red.

I'm curious -- anyone out there have one already, and if so, how's it going? Also, have other people been spotting them with any regularity?

A coworker who reserved the car 3.5 years ago is finally receiving the cars today. Likely many others are getting theirs as well.

A facebook friend just took ownership of one numbered roughly 3,000.

So probably about that many.

Ah, that probably answers it. From what I understand, it's very difficult to cut in line.
