Celebrities continue to enjoy the perks of Tesla Motors’ invite only ‘Foundation’ series Cybertrucks, with the latest being  DJ Steve Aoki and rapper Big Sean.

Billionaire Tesla CEO Elon Musk himself posted a video of Aoki, 46, showing off his new electric ride, a Foundation CyberBeast — the vehicle’s top-line model with three motors offering 845 horsepower — known to fetch a cash price above $122,000.

And, in a since deleted post to Musk’s X platform, Def Jam recording artist Big Sean, 35, posed next to his own new electric vehicle, nearly two months after the rapper publicly complained about delays with his preorder.

But Big Sean’s wait time scarcely compares to Cybertruck’s rank-and-file ‘early adopters’ and Tesla diehards, who preordered the sharp-edged, futuristic vehicle almost five years ago, when Musk first opened it up for $100 reservations in November 2019.

One Cybertruck customer also expressed his frustrations on X after spotting the rapper leaning back against his newly delivered Cybertruck.

‘This is really starting to piss me off. I’m sure they had a day one order like me, right. Still waiting in the peseants corner.’

But Sean's wait time scarcely compares to Cybertruck's rank-and-file 'early adopters' who preordered the sharp-edged, futuristic vehicle years ago. 'My two year waitlist anniversary!' one snubbed Tesla fan posted to Reddit. 'Any real chance I see this thing in 2024? [...] 2025?'

‘Inherently, a status symbol is something that will turn heads,’ as Edmunds automotive analyst Ivan Drury told Business Insider, ‘and it’s difficult not to turn heads in the Cybertruck.’

Or as one fan, who goes by @Teslaconomics on X, put it: ‘Tesla doesn’t need to advertise, bc these people do it for them.’

‘There is no car company in the world that has the level & reach that these celebrities naturally generate from driving the hottest product in the world right now.’

‘My two year waitlist anniversary!’ one snubbed Tesla fan posted to Reddit this week. ‘Any real chance I see this thing in 2024? Or even 2025?’

Aoki, a Grammy-winning electronic musician who has vacationed with models in Ibiza and performed NFL halftime shows with Dolly Parton over the past year, seemed just as excited to be flaunting his new car in an ordinary parking lot.

‘Look at this beaut,’ Aoki gushed in his social media video. ‘This is crazy, man. I can’t believe I bought this […] It’s like you’re in a tank, man. I feel like I’m driving a tank.’

Pointing to the thin line of headlights across the front of the vehicle, he said, ‘I like the Knight Rider vibe,’ name-checking the 1980s sci-fi action TV series starring David Hasselhoff and a talking 1982 Pontiac Firebird.

‘This has gotta be the biggest windshield wiper of all windshield wipers,’ Aoki continued.

Meanwhile, among Cybertruck's less famous and influential aspiring customers, gallows humor about wait times has become one of many coping mechanisms. 'I ordered mine on October 1st, 2023,' one said. 'I'm hoping it will be ready no earlier or later than July 2027'

Others ordinary Tesla fans have spotted eBay sales of 'early in the queue' Tesla Cybertruck reservations, those $100-paid early adopters, offering to flip their spot in line for thousands of dollars, and sometimes tens of thousands of dollars

Big Sean was more subdued, leaning against his Cybertruck in a tough pose.

In late January, a short video circulated on social media, apparently filmed from the rapper’s phone as he complained about delays with his order.

The video, captioned with a ‘fuming’ or ‘huffy’ face emoji, depicted a parked Cybertruck that Big Sean had spotted on the street — an unknown customer who managed to get the EV ahead of him.

‘Oh, okay. Yeah,’ the rapper who spent 14 years racking up Billboard-topping hits for Kanye West’s G.O.O.D. Music label, can be heard saying, seemingly seething with indignation. 

‘I preordered mine. You know?’ he continued. ‘We were set, bro. I preordered.’

The speculators and scalpers, who caught the attention of Tesla itself late last year, have led to questions about the electric vehicle maker’s policy on resales.

A clause in the Cybertruck Motor Vehicle Pre-Order Agreement shows that the company ‘may unilaterally cancel any order that we believe has been made with a view toward resale of the Vehicle or that has otherwise been made in bad faith.’
