Pictures of production Model 3s

It's like someone asked, 'how much more black could this car be?' and the answer is 'None. None more black.'

Ohhhhh, so that's where he got the "like a spaceship" idea. "It's like space, without all the stars."*

"My god, it's full of stars!"*

Do you have more photos of your white model 3?

She’s very shiny. Did you have some work done? Ceramic?

Picked up my car today. Rocklin does batch delivery. They put six owners together and give 30 min lecture on how to use Tesla then give us cars. Not sure if I like their method. Not even a ribbon. Just bottle of waters and donuts. I was the only M3 owner. 2 MS and 3 MX. $0.5 million batch transaction.... seem so impersonal View attachment 289035 View attachment 289038

I got a big red ribbon at Rocklin, a gust of wind blew it across the hood and left a big scratch as it was being delivered... so I had to have the scratch polished out. You're lucky you got no ribbon.

Stop showing me pictures of these red cars. JUST STOP IT! I had my mind firmly made up on another color, but these red car pictures are killing me!

Hold on I think I have a few dozen more... Red is the best color, say it with me...

Picking up Rosebud from the detailers, removed all the dam scratches that the car came with (dirty pad damage). Also, put a layer of OptiCoat Pro on so I won't have to worry too much about swirls for the next few years. The car had to spend the night to cure under heat lamps. Very busy first week.

My friend who picked up Blue Rose at the same time as I got mine is going for OptiCoat Pro+, and the chrome-delete too, including removing the front and back Tesla logos. Zowie!

Came across VIN 82XX in Roseville this evening and snapped some shots compared to our 2013 CRV.

Talked to the friendly owner for a few minutes who let me try the door handles and check out the frunk. He was a non-owner, first day reservation holder, who was about 30th in line at the Rocklin service center.

What wheels are those? Are they just a different center cap?

They look like TSportline's 19" TST's.

He says in his tag line they are "20in. Turbines."

Is one of these five Model 3s your car? If you're picking yours up soon in Southern California, it might be! I passed them yesterday afternoon north of Los Angeles headed south. Sorry, no VINs while cruisin'. Two Model Xs were also on board. I'm picking up my Model 3 this morning, but it's none of these.

@Kenriko,

Seriously entertaining these 20” Turbines....just phenomenal. What were you running stock before the change? 18” aero or 19” Stillettos? So my question is you did a video weighing these EVs...what were they like 10lbs heavier per rim? I’d like to know if you can give me an energy consumption comparison on range with the 20” EVs compared to the 19” stilettos if you had those or the 18” Aeros if you had those. I’m going 19” Stillettos stock but may upgrade to these EVs if the hit isn’t to obscene!

I had the stock 18s. The stock tires were underwhelming since they are All-season tires and the car peforms much better with UHP tires. I don’t think they are 10lbs heavier I had seen the 19s were something like 29lbs? I’ll need to look that up.

I’ve been flooring it from every light (seriously) and my wh/mi is just over 300. My guess is you would get an average in the 270wh/mi range if you don’t drive like an ass.
