I'm so ready for this.

 

[AlphaTwo00]

Wait, you can only watch if you put a reserve? That's err....

*pulls out credit card...

*Edit: well then, there it is. Puts credit card away for another 30 minutes...

 

[GSG Flash]

Have one preordered, probably close to the top(relatively speaking) in the lineup, but not sure I'm gonna keep my preorder. Like others have said, the interior is very disappointing for a car this expensive.

I might just cancel my preorder and wait for offerings from other manufacturers like Volvo or Mercedes.

 

[Draper]

Did it go black for anyone else.

 

[gamma]

Ok this is extremely boring PR blabla right now.

 

[GTI Guy]

Ok this is extremely boring PR blabla right now.

Probably will be fluff until 9

 

[toohectic]

I had the stream up, but accidentally killed it. Now I don't see the option to watch the stream on tesla.com. Does anyone have a link?

 

[gamma]

livestream.tesla.com

 

[Unknown Soldier]

Put in an email address to get past the black box of death BTW

yeah wtf is this...

 

[dottme]

livestream.tesla.com

You have to sign up to watch the stream???

 

[gamma]

yeah wtf is this...

Yeah it feels really weird, scripted and amateurish.

 

[Valkyr Junkie]

No YT mirror?

 

[golem]

Tuning in although I took back my reservation in hopes the Mission E will show up soonish. Hopefully Elons got a whole lot of good stuff to show and make me regret my decision

 

[Unknown Soldier]

Super quick video sucked.

Spaceships for Earth is actually clever.

The winning video was okay.

The end.

edit: Okay, not the end. Winning video guy has great taste in car colors. Mine is also Midnight Silver Metallic.

 

[StoopKid]

Lol mkhd wins

That was the first time I saw the super quick vid. Loved it.

 

[HeartlessNobody213]

Of course mkbhd won.

 

[mcfrank]

Loved super quick video

 

[brochiller]

Spaceship video was better but still not amazing.

 

[gamma]

People always say Apple is cult like but this actually feels like a cult lol. The way they say Elon reminds me of the Simpsons Apple parody.

 

[AlphaTwo00]

Spaceships for Earth is actually clever.

Too similar to the Audi Spaceman superbowl commercial in theme, I would think.

 

[mcfrank]

Only 4 minutes late? Not bad

 

[Unknown Soldier]

nope.avi

OK finally, it's car time. It's 2017 and I'm watching a car launch event like it's an E3 Press Conference.

And here's Franz. He's a cool guy. His car designs are pretty cool.

They show cars at E3. They might show a video game here

 

[StoopKid]

Crash Safety video is impressive.

Elon actually is a gamer and the first product he ever made and sold as a kid was a game he programmed.

 

[l2ounD]

Ridiculously impressive, it made the 5 star rated Volvo look dangerous.

 

[NateDrake]

He loved Deus Ex.

 

[GearDraxon]

Elon actually is a gamer and the first product he ever made and sold as a kid was a game he programmed.

Hence him immediately thinking of Missile Command when the graphic looked like an ICBM map!

 

[mcfrank]

310 miles!

 

[GSG Flash]

Long range model $9k more than the base at $44k.

 

[GTI Guy]

310 miles!

For 44k

 

[Unknown Soldier]

I see they made a lot of colors

 

[MonsieurPaul]

The guy is truly a genius, but in terms of presentation he's no Steve Jobs

 

[mcfrank]

For 44k

34k after tax incentives. It will be mine.

 

[HeartlessNobody213]

310 miles is good and no AWD yet. Really interested to see what options they eventually have for it.

 

[GTI Guy]

That's IT? WTF

 

[GSG Flash]

Already over? That was a bit underwhelming

 

[BitStyle]

That wasn't much...

 

[NateDrake]

The White Model 3 looks sexy.

 

[Draper]

Aahahahahahah

 

[golem]

Surprisingly brief presentation. Wonder when the first reviews will show up

 

[gamma]

Well that was some hot garbage. What a waste of time.

 

[j_rocca42]

Midnight silver with the black rims will be mine!!!

 

[toohectic]

That was it?!? Rather lame. I don't think I learned anything new other than the brief long-range model details. I hope tesla.com is updated to show off all the configuration options like colors, wheels, interiors, etc.

 

[Nobility]

I'm hyped but I am going to wait for AWD version before considering purchase.

The articles are coming out.

[lord pie]

I signed in with fake details, some music played, a car drove down a road.

"thanks for watching!"


OK...

 

[brochiller]

Specs and full Pricing:

I think it's too much for my taste, unfortunately.

 

[SteveMeister]

For 44k

That's roughly the price of a loaded Chevy Bolt Premiere, which has a 238 mile range (combined)
