How old are the pics? Like I just said, they are having an unveiling party in less than two weeks. I sure hope your photos are a bit old or they have a LOT of work to do in that timeframe. :)

Those pics aren't mine, but I did take a couple shots when I drove by today (I'll put them up soon) and it looks pretty much the same as Tesla-R1's. You'd be surprised how quickly that kind of interior remodeling can be done when needed, though.

Ok, here are some pictures I took on Sunday.
If you click on the images they will link to a larger size.



The parking lot has been repainted (I have no idea how they'll use all that parking).
It looks like the rear garage has been finished off (exterior paint, old rooftop satellite
dishes removed). Corner "porch" structure removed from front building (photo left).



Looks like there might be some electrical work to be done.



This front ramp into the showroom is new.

These pics were taken a week earlier:









It occurs to me that this is some clever marketing by Tesla Motors. The back lights are left on all night and the cars are positioned in just the right spot to be noticed from the street. It's like a stealth "coming soon" sign.

What is the address for the Menlo store? I'm thinking of driving by tomorrow.

The address is 300 El Camino Real, as you should be able to glean from the pictures. I'm pretty sure there's a map link on the first page of this thread.

Three days later:




It looks like they're building a familiar motif.

Can just see P7 in the back up on the lift.


Shop interior.


Looks like they're working overtime to get everything ready.
