RT Ashlee Vance
Fun story. This was the event that really compelled me to want to write a book about @elonmusk, @Tesla and @SpaceX. There was so much energy, and the company was doing things in California and the US that we were told were impossible. It felt like quite a big story to me.
When I pitched the book to the publishers in New York, I was told that no one knew who @elonmusk was and that the book would have a very limited audience. They all asked me what he had actually done even as the Model S was rolling off the line and SpaceX was flying to the ISS.
If memory serves, the bidding for my book started at $5,000. 😂
Narrator: It went on to sell many millions of copies.
Elon Musk: Custom orders of the Tesla Model S & X have come to an end. All that’s left are some in inventory.
We will have an official ceremony to mark the ending of an era. I love those cars.
This was me at production launch 14 years ago:
