It will include autonomous entrance ramp to exit ramp highway driving. Eventually. The $3k option is expected to be city driving (traffic lights, stop signs, round abouts, etc).

So, if you want a D model you'll only get 1/2 or 1/4 incentive. Bummer.
All I wanted was a D with largest battery pack for my wife.
AND you have to wait a whole another yr for it when you waited in line???? Jeez.
Also what is the thing you got for waiting in line???? No mention at all about that.
Glad I didn't stay up to watch that last night.

As a first day 2x reservation holder and owner who wants Dual motor most likely get the first run RWD big battery model so I can have it by Dec 2017 and take the full tax incentive.
A bit disappointed that my 2nd deposit placed at the same time looks to be back of the line as I would have kept the second $1k or purchased more tsla shares.
Questions I have:
- Roof Rack- Will there be mounts like the S?
- Back seat dimension - Width door card to door card? Need to verify my 3 diano radian rxt will fit like they do in my S and other cars.
This is exciting!

I don't get the '7 cameras' line when all the cars (all models) are supposed to have the identical AP2 hardware. We know it has the (mandated) backup camera. Is that not counted or are there only two front cameras? Wth?
I think you get the essence of the car in a dog fur cleanable (Tesla Network Suitable) configuration with these choices:
Color: Black with tan accents if available.
Options: Apply the paint money to a Katzkin leather interior in tan or with tan inserts (if Katzkin decides to support the Model 3). I think the leather kits are $700? And some elbow grease.
Maybe Tesla and Katzkin will get together and do a Black and Tan Special Edition, to save the elbow grease.
With destination and tax credits you end up with a really nice car for less than $30K.

Just about every premium euro car company only offers non metallic paint as a no cost option. All other types of paint are a paid option.

It really depends on how the AWD is configured. If the two AWD motors are smaller than the RWD motor, there is a good possibility that it will have the same 25% increase in real world range on the highway that the Model S has. If the rear motor is the same on both the RWD and AWD cars the difference will be much smaller.

Covered with what?You still get a center console in the standard package. It's just not covered.

I got a lot of disagrees when I said that line waiters would get "nothing". He mentioned line waiters last night and said that he was "appreciative of them". That's it.
That earlier promise to line waiters turns out to be nothing. Absolutely nothing.

I have to wait because I hate black interiors.
Yes, I have an alpine white with tan leather interior BMW non-metalic and it is great!
Tesla is making a logical mistake in how they are pricing the options.
Tesla fails if they sell the same number of cars as BMW sells 3 series. They seemed to have just mapped the price schedule from BMW over to the Model 3. The number of people with the money to support that sales strategy is not enough for Tesla to be successful in their stated goal. Even with BMW the first two colors are included. After that all colors are $700.
I don't understand why Elon is inviting competition the same way Ford did.

There are a ton of things I just don't understand about the Model 3. However - I can't configure one anyway.....so - Who really cares?Didn't seem to have an option for an adjustable sunroof, just a glass roof. I should count it as a blessing not to be able to option for that even when my daughter wants one.
This may have been corrected, or just a mistake. The press kit has it as we expected:
Right, white interior slated for 'Fall 2017', whatever that really means... Technically, that could be September?
Hoping those estimated delivery dates are going to be for the worst case. By late 2018, there will be a few offerings from Kia/Hyundai, possibly Honda and announcement from Toyota. If those dates get pushed further off, I would expect some reservation cancellations.
I know the Tesla will be better in handling that any of those and will have fancy auto pilot features but I usually drive in a straight line anyway except when city driving.
