Summary
A new Model 3 release candidate sighting seems to answer the question of which red the Model 3 will be available in: the one from the reveal event or the multi-coat red offered on the S and X now. Plus: pre-orders open for Tesla's solar roof tiles, why you might not want to overuse the Superchargers when you get your Tesla, and more!
