Pictures of production Model 3s

These are Unplugged Performance rims not Tsportline. Don't know where the center cap came from. I don't think aftermarket is licensed to duplicate Tesla logo.

These guys have them. Tesla Showdown: We got a Model 3, filmed it, and compared it to a Model S [Video]

Anyone notice the panel gaps.......................on the Porsche!? Oh My Dog, Porsche can't get it right even after several hundred thousand cars! They are doomed to failure. I going to cancel my reservation for the Porsche!!!

Zoom in. Looks like tire lube residue from mounting the tire on the wheel. That or just dirt on a previously wet wheel.

Actually I drive a Porsche and can confirm that there are many issues with gaps. I had to go back to them lately asking to fix and they did just fine however its a common problem. Given that I have read the complains from some people about Tesla's gaps with a smile. There may be gap issues with specific cars but they can be fixed and Tesla is in that respect not in a different spot than other automakers. On the mid term I expect them to be better though as fine calibrated robots (excluding humans) should be able to make a better job.

Aaahhh, okay. I always thought the ones included with T-Sportline wheels had the T-Sportline logo. Thanks for clearing this up.

Sorry, I got confused. I meant they are machined ones from Unplugged Performance to match the wheels. I am getting my tuners crossed.

I'm actually surprised that any third party is allowed to sell a copyrighted logo. I guess they could be paying a royalty to Tesla but I have to think the cap likely came from a Model S or X.

@DaveT, does this change your perspective on the M3 ramp? There’s been quite a bit of high vins being posted lately.

It’s definitely encouraging news.

I think there’s going to be lots of these articles as more people get their hands on the M3.
