4 -- Agreed. If the top-of-the-line X is about the same as the top-of-the-line S, I'd assume similar pricing all the way down.

I noticed that as well. That windshield comes back waaay farther than anything else I've seen on a production vehicle. It comes so far back they had to mount the visors on the pillar instead of the roof. That may make the car feel very open, almost convertible-like.
I hope they know what they're doing, there. Airbag operation in that pillar is crucial to good performance on the small offset frontal collisions. It'll be a tricky engineering feat to cram those both in there without the visor becoming a projectile during a crash or feeling "loose" to the touch in normal operation.
I agree there's something up with those second row seats. I'm curious to see what they have planned. Not being able to adjust the recline independently of the seat bottom is unusual, so they've certainly got some kind of trick up their sleeve here.

I noticed that too, but it does look like it can pivot where the base wraps around the side, and the lower seat may be able to adjust it's angle within the frame. I wonder how far back this frame can tilt.

There's absolutely nothing super special in the looks of the 2nd-row seats, so I'd say it's practically guaranteed that Tesla is hiding the actual look/design. It surely knew these would be leaked, and doesn't want them shown before the unveiling.
This appetizer I hope is a precursor to a great main course. After so many delays I really hope those pics are not the 'real deal'.
Most kids sit in the second row, as do adults in a vehicle that has three rows..and the third is often for excess capacity. Hopefully there is storage ie. cupholders, pockets for all my kids 'junk'. Is the family not the 'target' audience?
I already mentioned, would of liked to see more colours. Is the new paint factory opening? Are they waiting for that to give more choice?
I really hope the center console is not the same as the model S. The model S center console has received a lot of criticism on this forum for its poor ergonomics and functionality.
Lastly, and most concerning is the range. I think it noted range of 250 miles? Thats the big battery. What is the smaller battery range (all I can probably afford with the Canadian dollar tanking). What is the real world range with a fully packed for camping vehicle -bikes, tent, etc... with the heat on, radio on, etc... on a windy BC road? 200 km? 250km? 300km? I am willing to bet NOT 400 km. This could be the deal breaker...and I am afraid we wont have those numbers until winter and some real world reports start trickling in.
ok. i need to go chill, and breathe, and wait for the reveal for some clarification.

No mention of Air Suspension in either the Signature description screenshot or in the options screenshot. Standard on X? Not offered?
Edit: Thank you mspisars and hockeythug for pointing out it is in the confirmation page screenshot (included with Signature orders).

Falcon wing doors show integrated lift struts. Prototypes had exposed struts on the outside of the doors.

It is clearly listed in the Options image that is on this thread. For Signature Res holders this Option is included. It will NOT be the case for regular res holder.

Hmm, now I'm starting to worry about how awesome the 2nd-row seats actually are...

I don't pay close attention to seats in other SUVs, but I doubt any are mounted like these. There's no way Tesla is hiding the final interior from customers. The way the seats move is probably what makes them special, plus they do look good.
I thought all sigs are Performance models. I thought you had little choice of options other than colors. I understood that when ordering -- that's why I didn't do a sig reservation.

Man, Elon made a really big deal about these seats two or three times. If they don't do magic, and this is a good preview, I'm a bit disappointed.

Same here. Ugh...
