Maybe so, but they may have made multiple "waves", and this early wave won't have the final interior just yet.

How much time does Bigfoot spend looking at a speedometer?h

I'm surprised that the panelistas haven't been balking at the trunk arm/quarter panel alignment in this photo.
That was the first thing I noticed, LOL. I think that means I have been reading the Model S forums too much.

The chrome trim on the doors is also misaligned (seen in the other images)... It's almost endearing at this point. Almost.I'm surprised that the panelistas haven't been balking at the trunk arm/quarter panel alignment in this photo.

Only until FSD is enabled.I think it is reasonable to guess that it will be 100% of the time he/she is driving a Model 3

Untrue. You'd want to test any components in a production vehicle in regular driving conditions for sufficiently long period. "Release Candidate" means just that BTW - it's not really a mule, but deemed ready to go as is pending test results.

Yep, I had made the same mistake about the location of the mounting pedestal and thus the location of the display itself. However, looking at other photos from the same shoot, I could clearly see the display location and position were unchanged from that of the prototypes. That seeming contradiction led me to take another look at that blowup shot of "Mr. Smith", but with a new eye. That's when I realized what I thought was the pedestal was just part of the steering column.

Not sure why you called me out? I don't remember discussing anything about the number of cameras on Model 3.
Edit: I looked back just in case my memory was wrong, my first interaction with you was discussing the necessity of lidar for FSD, specifically about forward facing lidar (which having 2 more rear facing cameras does not change). Then it was talk about how many cameras were active on Model S.
I don't see any discussion about changes in Model 3 for the AP2 suite.

I like the new look of the front end, it looks like the lip is a bit lower which makes it look sleeker.
I can't really tell if there is much difference in the trunk. Elon did say the trunk opening would be improved, but I guess we will find out when the trunk is actually open. From the outside there doesn't seem to be much difference.

I don't think there is chrome strip under the lip, I think that is just light reflecting on the curved surface.

I don't think lip is any lower, it's just that it's at a more natural viewing angle. Most of the prototype pictures where from the reveal with the car up on the stage so front was more at eye level, making it look higher off the ground.

At first I did not like the original front of the prototypes, but then I realized what you said here, and it made the front grow on me. So I agree on this sentence. But I still think this RC front is a bit lower and/or more forward, and that makes is even better - especially seen in this more natural viewing angel. But I admit that it is hard to say for sure...

Maybe, but I think most people want to de-chrome not add more!
Yep, I agree. I have been slowly covering up all the chrome on my MS. I can't stand how much chrome is on the car.
