As on the tweet mentions, there is a good chance it will be the one Ryan McCaffery (Ride the Lightning podcast) ordered recently.

The choice for color was extremely hard for me. All the colors really work for this car. Whenever I stopped by the local Tesla center to see the Model 3s there, I had to remind myself I only had one reservation and enough money for the one lol.
Your MSM looks sweet. I really like how it looks with the rims underneath the aero covers I saw one day at a supercharging location.

I almost got blue but this time around I wanted something a little different than I have had in the past so I went with MSM. You are right though all the colors really looked nice.

Hmm - the literature on that link says "High Gloss Finish" - I should have put the emphasis on Matte or Stealth....

Nope, these are the new ones. The bolster is significantly thicker. All M3 after 18k or so got it (maybe earlier).

Again, the silver looks sweet on the post just above you. Not nearly as good as the prototype metal-type silver but still really quite good.
Maybe they changed the paint? It looks somewhat lighter.
prototype followed by one of the early silvers and one of the latest silvers posted.

Recently spotted 3 with Michigan MFG plates. Wonder what Manufacturer picked up a 3. Usually Tesla loaners have California MFG plates here. 10194vin

I saw one in Waterford, MI back on May 2nd. Also had an 'M' plate and had a 20-something guy driving it. Different car, so there are at least two out there...
Sorry for lame pic quality... Wasn't planning on sharing it to anyone more than my fiance LOL

Tesla was pushing Model 3s to Washington in May because of a tax incentive that was expiring at the end of the month. The last few weeks I've been seeing the fruits of that effort. Over the last year I've seen at least one Tesla other than mine when I venture out, usually Ss, but Wednesday I saw two different Model 3s within a couple of minutes of one another.
I've seen a number of others around here too.

Saw one in the wild today with the new tags still on it. Haven't seen one around here in a long time.
Actually this is the 1st time i had the opportunity to see one up close. naturally gotta check out the panel gaps
1. Panel gaps were way out of whack...
hood gaps were narrow on the sides but you could put your finger in the gap at the front edge.
Bumper gap under the headlight was the same, uneven.
Door gap on right side was tight at top, wide at bottom
I think that is an acura in the background, can see the door gap on that one. straight as an arrow.
back trunk gap was wider at top, narrow at bottom
2. aero wheel covers actually look nice in person
but this guy(or girl) scraped the hell out of all 4 rims. on a new car! ouch.
3. Could see the swirls in the paint in the sunlight.
otherwise: neat car, catches the eye. It was in a parking lot that holds maybe 30 cars and 5 of them are Tesla.

Wow new tags, and beat to all heck. Rims as well. These pics don't seem to match up with that half picture story your selling, and not really seeing any Tesla's in the paint reflections. See a MB and a Honda. Don't see an Acura, but what the heck do I know.
Edit. 60 days temp tag in PA FYI.

Only thing I see in the reflection is my white truck. I'm not into getting out and creeping around someone's car
Yet I see you standing there with your shirt untucked and door open. Lol
Nice brown shoes. Nordstrom's?

With my vehicle between me and the building and no pictures from the other side of the car. I'm not gonna peep in windows.
If I have time I'll run through there tomorrow and spy for you.

? You're literally within VIN range from the right front fender pic. Stand the same distance from the left side corner windshield post and you'd get the VIN. You were obviously "creeping" all around that car, but the VIN was too much for you?
