Born in Thailand, Bjorn Nyland came to Norway at the age of 4 is the lucky guy.

A Norwegian named Bjorn Nyland owner of a Model S reached the 10 referral milestone, just days after Tesla unveiled the plan of referring 10 new Tesla buyers will receive a free special "Founder Series" Model X SUV, on top of financial incentive of $10,000($1,000 for each referral). He reached the goal after posting a video seeking referrals to his channel, which currently has more than 13,000 subscribers.

The value of the Founder Series Model X SUV is probably around $70-80k(may be more). The Founder Series Model X vehicles will get special badging, can be customized in various ways, and will be personally inspected by Musk as they roll off the assembly line in Fremont, CA. Since he also get $10,000 to purchase Tesla parts and/or upgrade his Model S and X he may as well make his model X extra special.

I don't know.

May be he is a picky car guy, and to have a CEO of the company inspects his product before shipping it to customer to ensure it is built to the highest quality possible.

It's just for promotion. I'm sure there maybe a ceremony/party. People like to feel special.
Even when you take a BMW euro delivery, despite the German adherence to practicality, they realize there is benefit to putting on a show and ceremony.

There's only going to be like 50 vehicles, so there's limited edition prestige.
Elon's part is more for celebrity to sign inspection plaque rather then anything technical.

It's like having william shatner's signature engraved on your replica phaser.
