The latest TMC Podcast (#17) is now available on YouTube and all major podcast networks. We covered EV Tax Credit 2.0, Model Y & 3 Gangbuster Sales, Low Model X Demand, and California FSD Drama.
Apologies if this has been posted elsewhere but it looks like there is a new 'Silver Metallic' option on the Model S design studio. Is this the same as the old Silver?
This should make folks that were holding out happy (if they were waiting for this color). Might annoy those who were waiting and had to confirm without it though.
Huh - did they bump another hue, or is this added? Also, did they bring back to old silver, or is this a new silver entirely - it seems to have the same name?
The Silver option is showing the same color code as before (PMSS), so it should be unchanged from earlier models. "Midnight Silver" is the same as Steel Grey/New Grey. The name changed back around the time the true silver was dropped.
I met with a sales manager today as I have (and love) the silver 85 S. We just ordered the P90D and had wanted silver but it was not offered till just a few days ago. We ordered Titanium. He was was kind enough to drive one of the Titanium demonstrators out and put it side by side with my silver.
YES it IS the same silver as my 2014. Not a new "silver" color change.
After much consternation we stayed with the new Titanium color.
