Original Roadster Makes Appearance at Buffalo TOCNYS Meetup

It's taken a while, but in mid-July TOCNYS got its first member that owns an original Roadster, which in turn made its first appearance at a club event on August 10 at Buffalo's monthly "Second Saturday at the Supercharger" Meetup!

This particular Roadster is production #995 out of only ~2,400 ever produced, so it is indeed a rarity.

(Author's note: I used to think the Model 3 was small-ish, but check out how small the Roadster is compared to its Model 3 neighbors!)

Thanks to member Anthony C. for the following pictures:

Did you know?
On Earth Day in 2010, an original Tesla Roadster became the most expensive prize ever to be offered on The Price is Right.

Check out the Youtube video here to see if they won it or not :)

In another famous reveal, the Roadster 2.0 made a surprise appearance at the Tesla Semi Unveiling in November, 2017. The future Roadster, which is supposed to go into production in 2020, boasts some stats that are nothing short of breath-taking & record-breaking:

• 0-60 mph: 1.9 seconds
• 0-100 mph: 4.2 seconds
• Top speed: +250 mph
• Highway range: 620 miles
