The Roadster preorders are probably even better in this regard. 500 Founders Roadsters needed to hit $120m and I'm pretty sure the actual number is easily 4-5 times that (I ordered one too).
- rasz 5y agoI dont know, they ran an affiliate program awarding Roadsters. This alone materialized a huge liability in their books. Electrek scored two of those, no wonder they are super pro tesla :) https://electrek.co/2019/01/17/tesla-roadster-free-killed-referral-program/ https://electrek.co/2019/01/17/tesla-roadster-free-killed-re...
- lazyjones 5y agoI vaguely recall that Teslabjoern said in one of his recent videos that it's just a 10% discount he is getting and he is not sure whether he'll actually order one.
- rasz 5y ago2% discount, stacking >Some even accumulated enough referrals for two free Founder Series Roadsters and Tesla confirmed that it would be giving two Roadsters away to those who get the 105 referrals needed. >over 60 people are qualified for a Roadster and over 20 of those should get a second one too
- lazyjones 5y agoi read the article, but consider it speculation at this point (that it goes to 100%). I haven't seen a clear offering by Tesla in writing about it yet, nor have I seen any of the e-mails Tesla sends to winners about the discounts they achieved.
