Please, everyone, let's try to keep this thread on-topic so it doesn't devolve like the "Mule Sightings" thread. Thanks.

Sorry, post deleted, was tired of hearing that broken record.

I agree that the refreshed fascia, white color looks better with M3 vs MS, maybe bc M3 is smaller in size so the white doesn't look overwhelming like in MS. Overall I think M3 looks good from the extrerior styling

The front is so small.

I think you misspell aerodynamic.

I think White looks good on both cars. I also think its an absolute shame that Tesla removed the original white from the product line.

Waiting for the best color....Multi-Coat Red

 

[SoCalGuy]

Far too quiet on the western front.

Holiday for spotters?

@TheTeslaShow spotted a silver one by the Fremont Factory. Could not confirm if it was Alpha or RC.

Not much, but it's something new:

Probably the lowest resolution yet but it's new, I've bookmarked the model 3 google photos page, it's uploaded there.

Hmm. This one seems to have the c-pillar cameras again (those weren't visible for a while).

C pillar cams and larger wheel package. Looks like the tires are not to wide , good for low rolling resistance but still nice looking, does not appear to be a stagger setup. Can anyone see the brand of tire?
Car looks great in red! Heck it looks great in all the colors so far.
Wow.

 

[Lukas99]

The RED is stunning!

I assume you've confirmed this red is not made of wood. Nice!

Electrek have a new video up
Watch Tesla Model 3 prototype being chased around Palo Alto during testing
And as these cars are not "mules" but Release Candidates

 

[Twiglett]

don't know if that is multi coat red or not, kind of difficult to tell in that picture.

Here is the red car vs the unveiling:

The tire size for the unveiling is 275/30R20, Michelin BTW. The angle makes it harder to compare. Tesla announced that the Model 3 will be using Hankook tires made in Tennessee.

link? I recall seeing a korean news story saying Hankook had a deal with Tesla, not that Tesla announced that's what they would be using.
The release candidates, with photos clear enough to make out the tires, have Continentals.
