guest It was most likely black because I don't think there were any blue cars, except for custom colors. Nice spot though!�
1/1/2015
guest Spotted a black, blue or green MS sitting at the light at McMullen-Booth and 590 last night. I was making a u-turn into the Walgreen's, on my way to see Bill Maher at Ruth Eckerd. It was nearly dark out so not sure what color it was.�
1/1/2015
guest Spotted a white MS heading towards Northeast Philly on Woodhaven Rd�
1/1/2015
guest White P85 with grey 21's and carbon fiber spoiler sitting out front of The Conch Republic Grill in Redington Beach. A lot of people were staring as I drove by so if you were one of them, hi.�
1/1/2015
guest Is it time to kill the thread yet? I mean, Tesla doesn't quite have the reach of Ford, Honda, Toyota, etc, but sightings aren't exactly "random" at this point. Unless it's something crazy, like at the top of Machu Picchu or somewhere like that.�
1/1/2015
guest I almost never see other Model S in the wild... only at superchargers and maybe 4 others in over a year. Still not very common to see one.
Fun thread either way. I keep waiting for someone to spot me... lol�
1/1/2015
guest I have been too.. for almost a yr and a half now.
I've called out a number of sightings of other drivers here on the thread too, hoping somebody will recgonize themselves... also to no avail.
With the number I see around here now (several a week on average), I've stopped...�
1/1/2015
guest There is a black model S that one of my employees has seen twice now on Brock Rd in Pickering, Ontario. Hi neighbour!�
1/1/2015
guest We could rename this thread "missed connections".
" to the black model s I passed on hwy 290 west I meant to wave but didn't have time."�
1/1/2015
guest
finally a resla
�
1/1/2015
guest Similar here, except I've never been to a Supercharger and I've spotted 8 this year. I'm still waiting for my first sighting where I can identify more about it than the color. My last sighting (#11) earlier this month was the closest me and my car have come to another Model S since delivery, going the opposite direction on a two lane road. I really doubt a sighting of my car would be posted here, but I'm always hoping to be surprised.�
1/1/2015
guest We have a good number of them in the Tampa Bay area, yet I go weeks without seeing one still. I rarely even spot FLDarren, and he lives less than a mile from me. I DID randomly see him Sunday, though. It was a beautiful morning and he had the roof open and windows down, thoroughly enjoying his drive. I can't believe we didn't post our random sighting of each other!
I have to thank you, Darren. I was doing a favor for a friend (filling a prescription for her 83 year old mother and then overnighting it to her in SC), and was in errand mode. When you passed me and waved, I realized I too should be enjoying our rare dry weather, and opened my pano and windows, cranked up the tunes and that errand became a lot more fun!�
1/1/2015
guest I spotted this one on the 28th on my way up to the University of Utah:
�
1/1/2015
guest I have seen quite a few over the last two weeks in Utah. Havent had time to take photos.�
1/1/2015
guest I've been coming to the Bay Area for work the last two months and I am seeing just ridiculous amounts of Teslas. I guess I can see why no one posts those sightings anymore.�
1/1/2015
guest Not random and not a sighting - my own car - but this seemed the best place to post this. Anyone else decorate their Model S for Halloween?
Picked it up on Amazon last year.�
1/1/2015
guest I thought those things were now against the law. Maybe just in FL? Too many people thinking it was real and calling 911. :crying:�
1/1/2015
guest I'll risk it for a few days. Though I did have a parking lot attendant ask me to open the trunk so he could check...�
1/1/2015
guest I saw a white one heading towards Sugar land here in Texas. The lady driving it was texting unfortunately.
The second was right in the parking lot of my work. The owner was coming from the bank. I missed him getting into the car, apparently Tesla drivers are as silent as the car itself.
I thought I saw a third one but it turned out to be a Jaguar. 5 more days ETA until mine arrives!�
1/1/2015
guest Yeah, it's pretty crazy here. I've seen every type of person you can imagine driving them too. It's not just the engineers. We have THREE of them on my street. One Grey, one Silver, one White. I'm the only "P" though, so mine rules.�
1/1/2015
guest Spotted one visiting a neighbor on my street!!! I think this is the closest random spotting to my house.
�
1/1/2015
guest RDU airport parking garage. Saw a (green, I think) S60 last Wednesday on the way in and a black P85 today before leaving.�
1/1/2015
guest Love this. Don't think I'd have the guts to use it though.�
1/1/2015
guest Black or blue spotted at 8:58am, NB Rochester just north of Big Beaver. Only managed a couple glances as I was in SB traffic.�
1/1/2015
guest Was driving to my Model S test drive when I spotted my first ever Tesla in the wild:
Monday 11-03 around 1400 hours.
Columbus, OH I-270 near Dublin, OH heading towards Easton.
Green Model S with granny (silver fox) driver zipping in L lane at 85mph, eeeh haaah!
Sadly I could not follow having been a victim of the VA and OH staties twice already
within a year
Oh, and BTW, as an internist/geriatrician I really have a lot of respect for these elderly
but young in spirit people who drive a Model S.�
1/1/2015
guest Wow. Here in the Bay Area, I think we are the highest MSs per capita. Especially in Marin County. I have a new P85+ and nary a notice.�
1/1/2015
guest Not so randomly spotted my loaner. I like this color combo with grey turbines. I think I heard green is no longer available?
---as an update saw another MS nearby in New Hanover NJ. It was Brown!�
1/1/2015
guest Saw one on I-90 heading into downtown Cleveland yesterday. Once the Cleveland store + service center opens in a few weeks, hopefully the sightings will become more frequent.�
1/1/2015
guest Heading into Tysons Corner VA on Rt 123 this week.
�
1/1/2015
guest Spotted on Lee Highway in Arlington VA. I'm pretty sure this was the same car I saw more than a year ago as my third "in the wild experience." It's still fun when people react when being spotted like these guys did. As discussed earlier, we are definitely getting much more prevalent and people don't seem to care to thumbs up or wave nearly as much as they used to. I wish I could have snagged a pic of three of us when we ended up together in a DC traffic circle last week. I saw 9 that day.
�
1/1/2015
guest I still try to wave back if I see it. I am just not usually paying attention to the other cars around me like that. Although if I spot a Model S I generally try to flash em or wave or something. It has been about 50/50 for me getting a response back... And strangely every time a woman is driving I never have gotten a response�
1/1/2015
guest Ooh, did you get that from devon? We are getting a loaner this week. It'd be nice to not get the black 60. Maybe they sold that one end of Q3.�
1/1/2015
guest Nope this was Springfield. Devon was going to make me wait an extra week and not have a loaner. My travel worked out well and Springfield surprised me with this loaner.�
1/1/2015
guest Yep, just had family from LA visiting, they said Teslas are everywhere, and the supercharger density on the map is amazing!�
1/1/2015
guest Found 'MYTESLA' from..my tesla today. Looked like we were twins!
�
1/1/2015
guest Passed one on the way to work - on the north loop of beltway 8 heading towards 290, yesterday morning early. First one I've seen in months.
�
1/1/2015
guest Black (pretty sure) on NB Stephenson near Maple at 9:08am. I think this is the 4th time I've seen that specific Model S, of 13 total. Their commute in the opposite direction seems to occasionally cross paths with mine.
On another note, winter arrived today by dumping a bunch of large snow flakes.�
1/1/2015
guest 18th and Market in Philly this evening.
�
1/1/2015
guest Yesterday, I saw a brown MS being unloaded from an enclosed 18 wheeler on the 95S on-ramp at exit 4 in Connecticut (Cos Cob exit).
My dashcam caught it, but I don't have the footage right now.
I doubt it was a new delivery, since those now happen at the service centers... I guess it was someone moving or buying a car and taking possession? I couldn't make out the license plate or model. But someone has a new toy!�
1/1/2015
guest Saw a Black MS in Michigan heading south on US 31. I was driving a borrowed Smart car heading North.�
1/1/2015
guest Saw another Gray MS in downtown Philly this evening around Rittenhouse Square looking for parking while I was leaving to get back on I-95�
1/1/2015
guest
�
1/1/2015
guest At a Rock Hill South Carolina soccer complex. Still unusual to see them around here (mine's on the right).
�
1/1/2015
guest Do they live in Reading PA in the Exeter area.�
1/1/2015
guest Saw what looked like a new gray colored MS heading north on US1 near Langhorne PA exit.�
1/1/2015
guest Had a little "caravan" with an MC red just like mine today crossing Gandy Bridge from Clearwater to Tampa. I'm sure you share my relief that the Fl Hwy Patrol vehicle hit us with radar on the road before the bridge, rather than at the top of the hump on the bridge. You obviously share my desire to test the car's "performance characteristics" on that bridge.
Despite the rather large number of Teslas in our area, that was the first one I've seen in several weeks.�
1/1/2015
guest I go weeks without seeing another one, too, and i drive that bridge twice a day..yeah I do�
1/1/2015
guest Did you have a red loaner today? :wink:�
1/1/2015
guest wasn't me!�
1/1/2015
guest excuse these horrible pics, stupid iphone camera not focusing quick enough... for now on i'll take video... but saw this tesla crashed

Sure see a lot of them.
Probably not rare enough around here to continue posting
�
1/1/2015
guest That's a Signature Red man! They can't be that common.�
1/1/2015
guest White MS heading south on US1 near Ryders Ln exit in North Brunswick NJ�
1/1/2015
guest I would assume we are allowed to post pics of other people's cars? Saw these beauties getting ready for delivery in Tigard and someone's cool plate.
�
1/1/2015
guest From Mr X's post #3210 on previous page:
Oh boy, I almost had same happen to me on test drive. The MS is so stable and fast in lane changes that other drivers do not notice it as they checked their blind spot a fraction of a second earlier, add on top failure to signal lane change and BANG!
I love camouflage colors, grey on current car, but I am seriously thinking about switching to a high visibility one like silver or white for this reason, of course as seen above no guarantees with the 10% DUI/DWI rates on our roads in addition to the ones who cannot remember what they did an hour ago. Hope Google releases an personal autonomous car with a hefty AARP discount.
Sad to see this happen, my wife is an Odyssey addict but she looked real interested when I showed her the Model X gullwings which may require less clearance than the sliding doors.�
1/1/2015
guest Sorry, no pictures but yesterday, while we were out wine touring, we saw two other MSes at a winery in McMinnville OR (Brittan in the Granary District.) While walking out one MS was parked at the door and as we were driving away we were following another MS right in front of mine.�
1/1/2015
guest This was my best sighting yet. Standing inside Carmax on Roosevelt (getting a 2004 Silverado appraised), I had my Tesla-sense go off and spotted something across the street. Can you find it?�
1/1/2015
guest I'm not sure what we're looking at. The red car in front isn't a model s, but it sure looks like the same color as multi-red. Then in the distance it looks like an area has been roped off. Perhaps a new supercharger?�
1/1/2015
guest Nope. If you zoom way in to see across the street, there's a blue or black Model S with 19s parked there. I was standing by a Charger in the showroom when I spotted it, and I didn't even have my glasses on! Here's a zoomed in shot I took from outside.
�
1/1/2015
guest I hit a record. I saw 3 Sig Red's in the wild in half an hour period. I stopped counting regular sightings a once I started seeing one every few minutes.�
1/1/2015
guest Wow, usually in Reading PA, I see at least one Model S every week. I haven't seen a Model S on the road for a while now.�
1/1/2015
guest I've seen one in the wild (over a month ago) when I started really looking into Tesla.
Haven't seen one since. (I think there are about 300 total in the Minneapolis-St. Paul metro area).�
1/1/2015
guest Black MS on Hanover Rd in East Hanover, NJ. I flashed my lights. Nothing back.�
1/1/2015

guest I saw a Sig Red Model S heading South on I-95 in MD this morning near the DE line. Might that be @DigitalTim? Happy Turkey Day!�
1/1/2015
guest Not it! ;-)
I haven't left the house in MD yet - about to head to western MD w/ the fam...
Happy Thanksgiving!!!�
1/1/2015
guest A semi-random sighting of my own car... My daughter pointed out that the latest Google Maps Street View update from September 2014 shows our newly bricked driveway and my Model S, which is usually parked in the garage in back when at home but happened to be in front that day.
�
1/1/2015
guest Ok, that's funny.�
1/1/2015
guest I saw a black P85+ in Calgary yesterday driving through Marda Loop then through South Calgary. Anyone here?�
1/1/2015
guest Seems Legit�
1/1/2015
guest A couple of weeks ago Friday night it rained, I saw an MS that was involved in a tangle with a large SUV in front of the Fairmont Hotel in Downtown Dallas.
:crying:
Drivers were in the road exchanging info.
Hope there was not too much damage....�
1/1/2015
guest I saw two Model S's on the way to work today! First time I've ever seen two in the wild on the same day. They must have been traveling together, because they were on the same road going the same direction only about a minute apart (I was going the opposite direction as always), and the rarity of sightings (1-2 a month) further supports that assumption.
They were on EB Hall Rd. between M-53 and Van Dyke Ave. at 8:47 and 8:48. Both were clearly grey. I'm not very familiar with the real-world differences between dolphin and steel, but I think the first was steel grey and the second was dolphin grey.
Edit:
Here's my dashcam video of the sightings, no cuts between them.
On a related note, I also saw my first confirmed wild LEAF on the way home. This was a very good day for EV sightings.�
1/1/2015
guest Lamenting my ability to drive Serena from Pittsburgh to my in-laws' for Thanksgiving my spirit was lifted to see a MCRed Model S quietly prowling on the main street in Owego, NY. Whoever you are, you made my black Friday a vibrant RED. Thanks!�

guest Saw a white Model S on my way to Starbucks heading the opposite direction right outside of Mystic, CT. Could it be that I'm not all alone down here anymore?!�
1/1/2015
guest I've been to the Starbucks there before there's even a charger at the aquarium of staying overnight nearby.�
1/1/2015
guest every morning there has been a black MS going south on del mar ave, taunting me, day in, day out...
i need to leave for work earlier or something.�
1/1/2015
guest Not me (if it's dark enough the blue ones, green ones, look black), but if the traffic is bad, I'm often on the 210 West to the 134 in the morning (check the carpool lane).�
1/1/2015
guest Just got obliterated by a P85 at a light in Moorpark. I took off on him for about 4 seconds then he just smashed the pedal and flew by me with rail gun like speed and was gone into the future :scared:
so crazy so FRICKIN FAST:love:�
1/1/2015
guest Is it not bad form to go all smash pedal on a fellow Tesla?
Shouldn't that be reserved S63's, M5's and RS7's?�
1/1/2015
guest Spotted a white S85 in Trenton Station garage. I wonder if he didn't know about the charging area on the roof.

guest at streets of willow springs yesterday.
20141206_095823 by jeremy!, on Flickr
the guy pulled a pretty good time too. 01.34 which put him just below a supercharged miata and a bmw 135i.�
1/1/2015
guest Not exactly random... we took these today on the NJ Turnpike. The first one I took (driving) the second one my g/f took with an instagram filter. I like them alot, and figured this was the best thread to share them.
�
1/1/2015
guest Sam, It seems you have seen almost same teslas that I have seen in NJ.
But I am waiting for you to report seeing my car..
Usually, I am around 78, 206, 287, 80, GSP and occasionally in week-end Route 9, 18, Turnpike..�
1/1/2015
guest What should I look for to spot yours? By the way saw a white one this morning near Short Hills mall on Rt24 with DRLs off so possibly no tech package.�

1/1/2015
guest I was in Prague last week and I saw an Orange Tesla.
Is that a new color? I am not sure I like it.
But who am I to complain. I have a brown Tesla and it is not available anymore.
- - - Updated - - -
Not many Tesla in Prague. But in a shopping center, Ther is a nice tribute to Tesla, in stained glass.
�
1/1/2015
guest Orange isn't available from Tesla. They probably had the car wrapped.
That stained glass window is awesome!�
1/1/2015
guest
Saw this one as I was driving by and sitting at a red light during rush hour in Boston. It's always a good feeling seeing a Tesla around town.�

1/1/2015
guest Drove up to Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville this morning. As I was paying the cashier at the garage entrance (flat fee pay as you enter) she eyed my car and said "Wow, this is the second Tesla I've seen today". After a few pleasantries, I continued inwards and drove up to the second level. Imagine my pleasant surprise when I saw the Tesla she was talking about parked in my favorite section with a vacant slot next to it. Needless to say, I took a picture which I am posting with apologies for the quality. I do not know whose car this is and if he/she is a forum member. When I came back 3 hours later, it was gone and I wonder what his/her reaction was to the sight of 2 externally identical models (except pano, color and wheels) parked side by side.
�
1/1/2015
guest Very likely that it was mine. I stopped by the mall that morning, and I had my DRL's turned off for some reason. First time that I've been "spotted!"�
1/1/2015
guest Awesome! Full Tesla house at Short Hills today. No way to park or charge.�
1/1/2015
guest Not so random at the Edison SC but I thought the nice MC red and gray TST wheels make this P85 beauty worthy of a post. Oh and the cool plate.
�
1/1/2015
guest That S you saw was either wrapped or had a custom paint job done after it was delivered. But I bet it was wrapped.
Thanks for posting the photo of that stained glass tribute to Tesla. Impressive!�
1/1/2015
guest Looks like a Tesla-ful day! White P85 getting PF Changs takeout at MarketFair in Princeton!
�
1/1/2015
guest Those aren't the TST's Sam. They are the Rial Lugano's. The spokes are too sharp to be TST's. Still great looking nonetheless.�
