Random Model X sightings

And the spoiler is all the way down!

And the spoiler is all the way down!

It's a bit of mystery for sure. I did a quick scroll through this thread and found that it's about 50/50. Of course, some of the spottings are of cars moving or stopped at stop signs or lights, but even one set of pictures I tried quoting showed one charging and it's spoiler was up in a few shots and down in the others.

This post shows Elon's X charging. Spoiler up in 2 shots, and down in the other shots.

The spoiler popped up when the doors opened, and retracted after doors closed and owner left with key. Similar to how door handles work on Model S.

Thanks trils0n. Waiting for this car has just about driven me crazy. I must admit those new pics got me very excited. Good info on the spoiler, I was getting worried. I sure hope there is a way to keep it from raising while the key is near the car. Looks beautifu down l & I'll likely be hanging around the vehicle quite a lot :smile:

BADASS! ..is it weird that this gave me goosebumps? :love:

We are all a bunch of freaking weirdos (lol), in the best, future loving, planet saving, tech obsessed, speed digging way. Love it!!! Bring it!!

Hey that is the Burlingame California Service Center! I was there Saturday and will be back there this afternoon. Thanks for the video and your post. The X looks awesome.

The real beauty here is the Dolphin Gray two spaces over from the X. I may be biased though (see sig). The X looks good too!

Thanks, you can't even tell how dirty my car was in the video Can't wait till I wear out the 19s and put my 21s back on -- looks even better with them.

The X does look great in person. I was kind of undecided about it only seeing pictures online, but after seeing it in person I think it will be a big hit. Proportions and lines are beautiful -- to my eye, the best looking SUV/CUV on the market.

I figured it was your. In the video, you can see they keyfob get in and out of range of automatic door locking.

Mine is dirty as it hasn't been washed in a month and 3k miles. But it goes to the Service Center on Monday morning, so it should be clean again by Monday afternoon.

I'm just realizing the best argument for getting a black or Midnight Silver is this opening shot right here. The way the spoiler disappears into the rear window. So cool!

Brief encounter, but my impression was that it is even better looking in person than in photos. It doesn't look much bigger than an S. Exquisite proportions. Obviously the X is by far the best looking large CUV/SUV currently in production!

Big credits to Franz von Holzhausen for his amazing job.
Hope he stays at Tesla for a long time and designs a Model 3 as beautiful as the S and the X!

The owner of Founder's 36 was very gracious and offered a tour of the car. Didn't take any pictures of the interior while we were talking, but the inside is great. The front seats are better than the next gen seats in the Model S. All 3 rows had perforated leather, and the perforated leather feels amazing. More room inside than I expected, though headroom might be an issue for 3rd row if you are taller than 6 ft. Much nicer than the next gen seats with premium interior. Nicer than the Nappa leather my early-ish car has (which is nicer than any of the loaners with different versions of leather I've had throughout the years). Interior feels much higher quality all around than the Model S, but keeps the same great minimalist styling. Everything looks more finished/refined/polished. The center console cup holders for the 2nd row extend and expand from their hiding spot under the USB ports in a dramatic (for cup holders) fashion. The Falcon Wing doors are super cool and operate quicker than I expected. Getting into the 2nd and 3rd rows is easier than any other SUV I've used. The auto closing and opening front doors are sweet as well. You can just pull the handle on the inside and the door shuts, much rapidly than I expected. My photos (and all photos I've seen) don't do this car justice. Just amazing looking in person.

Awesome. Thanks for sharing. I can't tell in this lighting, but do you know if this is midnight silver, black or obsidian black metallic? My wife and I are still discussing color options. She likes midnight silver, I prefer blue metallic. I've heard that midnight silver really looks different depending on lighting, but I've never seen it look this dark, particularly outside.

We're heading to a showroom with a decent selection of CPO and inventory cars this weekend to see some of these colors in person (on Model S, of course).

Thanks!

It was normal, solid black. My car in the background is the original, lighter grey. Midnight Silver is darker, but similar to my car -- gorgeous color as well.

Not so random because in and around the factory, but the Quebec Guide de l'auto got permission to film inside and the line appears to have X's mingled with the S's

White X parked on the street in Mountain View. No plates, so I assume this is a new customer delivery. It's on Franklin between California and Dana St. Didn't have time for pictures.

Tesla on a delivery vehicle..

 

[andrewket]

Funny, that's my color combo. Red with grey wheels on the S, and a white X.

101 Southbound near gilroy around 12:30. Black X on car carrier full of Model S out for delivery. No pic was headed north.

Looks like they are starting to get deliveries moving at a faster pace

Saw a white Model X on a truck headed east on i10 in New Mexico!
