Yes, tesla to sell Largest battery first with first M3s (IMO)
IMO I think it would be a big PR mistake not to initially come out with the $35k base M3, at least as one option. I do expect similarly what happened with the MS to happen to the M3, in that the smaller battery will be soon be discontinued. When MS came out in 2012 you could get a 60, for $50k USD or CAD, now the smallest battery option is 75. Product constrained, why would Tesla sell $3 widgets when they can just as easily sell $4 widgets.
Perhaps I'm just saying this because I'm hoping for one of the early edition M3 (ordered one day after reveal) and I'm going base. The $35k USD M3 is now $50k CAD. The MS would have been a great investment, as will the M3...but not nearly as good as TSLA stock.
