My first sighting today, in Sonoma County. I won't be specific as to where I saw it, since it appears the owner may live nearby. I followed it for a while. Great looking car, looks good in red. I did notice that the tail lights (not the brake light, but the surround section) was turning off and on with the shade of the trees. Perhaps the headlights were as well, and that's something that needs work.

Sorry for the photo quality. Phone pics, cropping out landmarks, etc.

Thanks, @ohmman. No point masking out the plate; it's our previously-sighted Tesla investor/employee friend and "HISMDL3". :) His wheels - possibly, the default 18" aeros with the covers removed - have sparked a lot of discussion elsewhere.

Normally I try to avoid cross-posting, but... #17 has a couple of photos of VIN '33, courtesy of @SMAlset

ahh I see you spotted them! Great surprise for us that attended the Seaside Social. In the invite they announced there wouldn't be any M3s there just MS and MX. #33 is Jon McNeill's and later Franz came with his M3. I posted more photos of both cars in the thread/post #17 link above and in the following post after it. A few interior shots and the frunk. Enjoy! Really sexy looking car especially in this price range and love the red color.
 
nice pics. the wheels appear to be 18 inches with the aero disc covers removed. good looking vehicle!

Are all our Model 3's going to have this God awful Tesla Sticker on the front window? I just can't get over how this detracts from the cars look. The white looks like just a duplicate of the VIN # which is already on a stamp plate on the left front side....so why dup it? I know I guess we can just remove it? What is its purpose?

Relax, that's just the temporary DMV registration in CA. We can take it off once our permanent plates are mailed.
