The faster you reserve the faster you get it! Oct. 2009 earliest: Tesla Motors VP says:
"Roadster production is now at a steady 80 cars per month, and will increase to over 100 cars per month this spring. We have delivered approximately 300 customers with another almost 1000 waiting for their Roadster, and we are taking new orders for delivery in late October 2009.
At the Detroit Auto Show, we announced our co-operation with Daimler, the makers of Mercedes. Tesla will provide battery packs and chargers for an initial series of 1,000 SMART Electric Vehicles – and this could lead to many more.
Also at Detroit, we announced the Roadster Sport, an even more powerful version of the Roadster. Deliveries of the Roadster Sport will start in June.
European deliveries of the Roadster and Roadster Sport will start in late June, and we will announce the location of our first European showroom (in London, UK) in the next few weeks.

2 years! According to the Auto Blog Green, some guy had been waiting 2 years to get a Tesla Roadster, and then sold it in an auction on eBay. So, although in the past it's been stated 1 year in the NY Times, it can be 1-2 years for the waiting list.
