Flame Red was the free colour for a long time. I had a white one and honestly loved it. Some people say it looks funny and, well, it does... But it was still a great car.Anyway most pure EVs look a bit funny, including Tesla. It's only the ICE conversions that tend to look normal.

It looks better in some colours than others - I had a loan of the electric blue coloured one from work for a few months, that did look a bit odd.

Any more than about 50 miles, I fire up the 
Living in California and only 38 miles from the Fremont factory, Tesla's are 2 a penny around here! I like them a lot and the 3 looks better the more I see it. However, as with many vehicles in CA, most don't display a front plate and it looks bland without it, unlike the S which looks good. I did see you can buy stick-on grills off eBay - anyone seen these? Can't decide if they would look crap or not. I guess in the UK, it's not a problem as you all have to display the front plate...
