Excellent! This is how I would like mine to look.

Yes, make mine like this also. I want a compelling front end design, not one I have to "warm up to" like the front nose reveled.

I'm honored. Lines and curves flow. Visually, the Model 3 is an impressive design. Nearly every angle is spot on. It is because of this that the blunt nose seemed so out of place to my design sensibilities. I understand design is a subjective thing but typically it's rare to see just one design line or feature to be discordant with the whole.
Mihai did a great job conveying my idea.

Here is a quick photoshop job of how it would look without the duck face. It's a bit bland, but feels neutral as the eye will focus on the overall shape of the car and its prettier design elements. The duck face is distracting from certain angles, especially from straight front (car appears "angry"), but from other angles the "blunt" front adds character.
I would also think that a smoother nose would help with lowering the drag coefficient.

Here's another I put together quickly. Still has a "nose", but less aggressive and smoother edges:

Porsche 918 Hybrid
FlatSix911, that looks great! I adjusted it slightly by bringing the nose down just a bit.
My wife kept quoting Lightning McQueen "Kachow!" after each corner light flash on the reveal video. Love it!
I like the 3 front (and the rest of the car -- gorgeous). No need for the X nose shaped black area. I feel like the X only had that air intake shaped that way to provide design consistency between X and S (same shape at the top of the S nosecone). And the S nosecone is it's weakest design element. Not sure why they'd want to replicate part of the weakest element of the design just for consistency across products.
Both the S and the X underwent very positive, but small changes to their front bumpers (from a smoother, more rounded design to something more sculpted/refined) I assume the 3 will be the same. Can't wait to see the production version.

I am praying to all the universe gods for your design to be the final one. That simple tweak brings all the Tesla soul into the 3. THANKS! Did Elon see this yet?
