Model X is even worse. Our rear view mirror is so tiny, it's hilarious. Not to mention that the middle row's headrest blocks 50%+ of your field of view. And beyond that... a tiny window that is so severely raked your actual view out the window is about 1/10 the amount of glass that's actually there. And beyond THAT... a spoiler that cuts across the two inches of view you still have. Luckily this is all made up for by having an amazing reverse camera that I leave on at all times, and is far superior to having a mirror at all.I love how the Model S looks too, but the one thing I can't stand is the rear window view from the inside. Seriously you can't see anything. I would have much rather they made the roof line taller so I can get some more visibility.

It's there. You just need to zoom in.Well sure, but now about if we include the Tesla Roadster in such a photo.
I saw a Tesla carrier going north on HW5 from CA to OR last week, it was an open carrier.I took a quick tour through the Fremont parking lot yesterday. Spotted three Model 3's - grey VIN 20, white VIN 107 and a blue one that was being driven.
I also noticed a Reliable Transport covered car carrier entering the premises. Does Tesla normally ship in enclosed trailers?
The 3 definitely has a large cabin. I wouldn't call it a clown car though. It's just a continuation on X, with the same open cabin/hidden roofline as well as a windshield that extends farther down than the X/S. Depending on the shot, it can make the car look relatively top heavy, but different angles make the S look relatively bottom heavy, which to me seems like six of one, half-dozen of another.View attachment 244556
Both Motortrend shots with presumably similar camera settings at pretty much the same angle. Professional photos with well-adjusted, realistic focal lengths. Which car looks better? Obviously the S, since you can't possibly have your budget car compete in looks to your premium car, but let's dig a little deeper.
Model 3 has a giant forehead. It always will because the hood is so small. It's much lower than the S, yet the height is unchanged (+/- .5"). Model 3 is also a hell of a lot more narrow which actually makes the Model 3 hood line appear taller than Model S (look at bottom pics), even when viewed side by side like this! This obviously also exacerbates the tallness of the glass, coupled with the more vertical angle of the sides of the windshield. The actual low hood line means the effect is doubled. it loses out on the sleek, flat, triangular look and opts for a tall, boxy, bubbly look, which makes the car look top-heavy.
Also threw in a bonus image of the 3-series (taken by Motortrend) to demonstrate the quintessential notion of "sporty", "sexy", and "sedan". Looks a lot like the S, huh? Makes the 3 look even more derpy by comparison. It looks like a clown car
That's because it is ridiculously tall compared to those sports cars.
I've seen worse fitting rear doors in the MX.It's one of those things that can't be unseen! I notice that read now on each picture. I've yet to see the passenger rear showing the alignment issues. Does this seem to be limited to the drivers side rear door?
I'm not the only one to realize the one on the right isn't a glass roof. The glass roof is making it appear taller as there is not defined roof line. Plus the camera distortionI know why the one on the left looks horrible to you.
Its mirrors are folded in. That car is hideous with those mirrors folded like that.
LOL
I think they are both glass roofs. What you see is the reflection of the red "Tesla" sign reflected onto the glass roof.I'm not the only one to realize the one on the right isn't a glass roof. The glass roof is making it appear taller as there is not defined roof line. Plus the camera distortion
Dang it, it's what I get for using my phone on the internet. I was actually thinking of getting a white 3 and wrapping the roof during the summer here. I didn't want the glass roof but I'm having to get it.I think they are both glass roofs. What you see is the reflection of the red "Tesla" sign reflected onto the glass roof.
The base Model 3 will have a metal roof.Dang it, it's what I get for using my phone on the internet. I was actually thinking of getting a white 3 and wrapping the roof during the summer here. I didn't want the glass roof but I'm having to get it.
You can find plenty of threads already discussing the glass roof in hot climates. It really is zero problem. A few months ago I was in 119 degrees for several days in AZ. I never wished for a solid metal roof.Dang it, it's what I get for using my phone on the internet. I was actually thinking of getting a white 3 and wrapping the roof during the summer here.

I'm betting on it. Car seats are going in the back of mine, and my wife and I are not short people.Judging by this picture, I think it looks almost enormous - for a car of that format.
wow, gorgeous! with 18" tires and white interior, i'd place my order right now
Will be fitting 2 car seats in our 3, so glad to see that the backseat area looks to be decently sized!One could also say those sports cars are ridiculously low compared to almost any other car.
On a different aspect I just noticed while browsing through the Motor Trend pictures: some say (no, I'm not going to reference character traits of "The Stig" ) that the rear interior of the Model 3 seemed cramped when compared to that of the Model S. Judging by this picture, I think it looks almost enormous - for a car of that format. Just look at the legroom (and the front seats don't seem to be in a very forward position either):

The more details I see, the more excited and happy I get about my future car.
Kind of funny, if you look behind the model 3, you see 2 kids in the frunk of the Model S!wow, gorgeous! with 18" tires and white interior, i'd place my order right now
