    One of the car's unique features is it's sound. The other recent video with three cars on the test track has the whirr of the electric motor. It's so striking to here it from such a big beautiful car. This video misses that.

    The world loves to be deceived.

    The least he could have done was linked to TMC or this thread... Or was he talking about the official (and oft neglected) Tesla forum?

    There is indeed a thread in the official Teslamotors.com forum. I suppose he is talking about that one.

    How kind of them to mention my YouTube link

    Indeed. They've trimmed a little off of the start and added a silly marketing message where the leaked version just faded to black at the end.

    Clea, video is still there for me.

    2 of my last 3 cars have been black, and I keep saying I won't buy another black vehicle, but damn that Model S looks good.

    Comparing this video and the 3 model s cars on the track with the earlier alpha video (Model S Alpha Hits the Road on Vimeo) I noticed that the LEDs seem to be missing or disabled since then. I'm also torn on the logo on the nose cone vs hood. I like it on the cone, but having it on the hood is pretty sleek too.

    I imagine nose cone is better for establishing a distinctive design across the upcoming models though, otherwise they'll join the ranks of all the cars and crossovers with gaping mouths with emblem on the hood.
