LeftlaneNews.com to stream live video of Tesla Model S unveiling

[Albern]

So much for sharing a moment of history together :frown:

 

[stopcrazypp]

... and off again.

Can someone post a screenshot for people that cannot stream?

Stealing off someone who got the front:

 

[Gunnar]

The front was very Maserati-like? Don't you think? Wow, I really like it.
:biggrin:

 

[TEG]

I wish that air intake was smaller and lower... Oh well, to each his own.

The grill rocks.


Some vids in the other thread...

 

[Kevin Harney]

so did anyone actually get the live stream ?

 

[WarpedOne]

Yes. They were having problems with internet connections at the source. Two soundless videos and about half a minute of video and sound. Then every thing went dead, including uploading of pictures to blogs etc.

 

[TEG]

The live stream cut in and out.
It wasn't choppy playback, rather it had fine video for bursts of say 30 seconds then would return to "off air" for a while.
It also missed the actual unveiling.
And it never had audio.
At least from what I saw.

 

[TEG]

The grill rocks.

I think Brits have different tastes in car grills.

 

[Kevin Harney]

thinking about it I seem to recall that many British sports cars have that same style grill

 

[TEG]

Yeah, the front end is the part that really ends up looking 'Maserati'.
Reminds me of this:

It protrudes forward:

Doesn't it seem that the nose has grown quite a bit since the earlier teaser photos that (apparently) turned out to be of an earlier prototype?:

I figured that it needed a longer/deeper bumper for crash safety reasons.

 

[dpeilow]

It really doesn't look like that here:

 

[TEG]

That is weird - it is almost like an optical illusion. I would have guessed we were looking at two different cars. I guess we aren't used to seeing a car with a "nose" shaped quite like that.

Yes two versions of the same car. it went clay, gray, white, silver. Each was changed a bit s they went.
