Ever since I saw people complaining about this, every time I go to a parking lot, that's all I look at now. It's driving me crazy. :) I've actually never really noticed this on other cars before until now. I see some issues with some other pearl white cars too. I saw a S500 sedan that didn't...

Beautiful! Are those TSportline 19" wheels? How do you like them? Are you using factory tires ?

Good to know. Thanks.

This is a bit off topic, but when you install a dash cam like this in the Tesla. Is it only able to draw power from the 12 V battery, or can it also draw from the car's main battery ? I would imagine the voltage won't work, but just want to check . Thanks.

I mainly wanted AWD for the performance really. I don't need to worry about snow as I'm in the SF bay area. But I can deal with a RWD to start. It's at least better than FWD :) After driving with car with HUD for a couple years, it's hard to go to a car without, let alone without a speedometer...

I'm staying with my reservation and planning to lease the 3 at first. There were a couple reasons for this: 1. model 3 is brand new and isn't proven. Leasing means I won't be stuck with it should it have some kind of long term issue and design flaw which is discovered later on. 2. By the time...

Yeah, I'm hoping there'll be aftermarket HUD options, or at least Tesla might even offer an optional HUD later on.

If this is true, this means the final reveal should be soon right ? I can't imagine they would have test cars on the road before the final reveal.

That's a great idea. Saves me the trouble of having to install my own cams, which is unsightly. It would also be cool to allow you to remotely tap into the camera feed from your app on the phone, so you can monitor the surroundings. The new 5 series has a remote surround view function. This...

I know what you mean, when you buy a car (infinity in your case) from a "premium" brand, you expect the thing to be put together well and not a lot of interior rattle. I can tell you I've pretty much given up that thought. My 70k+ X5 has rattles. When you turn on the AC on a hot day, there are...

He was probably getting a candy bar :) Or just trying to piss off the ICE car drivers.

How's the range on the i3 ?

This thread is starting to get pointless.

I wouldn't mind getting a scale model of the prototype and the final production form.

I highly doubt Tesla will open another production plant or Giga factory any time soon. Remember they did not build the Fremont plant from scratch. It was taken over. They simply do not have the capital to build it from scratch. They're spending billions on the first giga factory alone and that...
