I've seen multiple colors on 280 between 92 and redwood city.. not too recently though. My guess is... since they don't have a test track (I assume they don't), they take them for a quick spin on 280

Spotted a Tesla...on TV tonight. The local news did a test drive and profile on Teslas and of course it was by a seriously inept reporter. Only $109k, get yours now!!!!!

Orange Tesla southbound 101 going into Palo Alto this morning

I find it interesting CA hasnt allowed them in the carpool lane. I flew by him while he sat there in stop&go. Maybe if Arnolds wife is really getting one (?) he will be pressed to make it happen -poke-

They are allowed and get special stickers. They take forever and some of the owners don't want to put 3 huge ugly stickers on their sports car. That was the feedback I heard while working there.

Saw one a few days ago in Rocklin (East of Sacramento) in my neighborhood. I was out of the car talking to a friend when we saw it pull stealthily away at a nearby stop then, a few minutes later, drove through the same stop again. I'll try to track him down for a chat. Trouble is you don't hear them coming, especially now I am almost deaf from my Lotus.

I saw a blue one with a child seat parked at the Microsoft office in Mountain View a few months ago.
