Which is still a lot, of course.
But these are reservations. For a car that may be produced in a few years. On the one hand, that someone even plunked down $1,000 for a car that may arrive in their driveway in a few years is an achievement. On the other, I think this trend is going to continue. So the conversation, I guess, would be, what number of actual first year Model 3 sales would be significant? That number might be 100k. So they have a long way to go down and still be a significant achievement.
