Could be the roof is an option
It's an improvement. However so slight.

Better than the current frowny-face.
More aggressive looking.
Little odd how the black nose bleeds onto the front "bumper" nub.
I am also puzzled about this issue. This latest video from JerseyGirl appears to show a body colored roof extending forward above the front seats, but this contradicts the belief of several people on TMC that the X windshield extends rearward over the front seats. The recent Instagram photo posted by Elon appears to show an X body being robotically welded and no conventional front crossbar connecting the A pillars is present (thanks to those who analyzed that photo), which supports the idea that the windshield extends to the rear over the front seats.I found it interesting that the roof is actually blue instead of clear glass. I had noticed this one one of the earlier shots of the Red one as well. With it being a single piece of glass all the way to the falcon doors, does that mean they painted the inside of the glass?
I'm pretty sure what they've done is wrapped the roof in blue film. Probably as camoflage.I am also puzzled about this issue.

I find it hard to believe that the blue X videoed by JerseyGirl has body colored wrap on the rearward section of the windshield or that the windshield glass has been painted. But maybe that is the explanation.
The headlights are also still partially covered in tape, so this one is obviously still partially camo-ed.I'm pretty sure what they've done is wrapped the roof in blue film. Probably as camoflage.

If you are concerned about larger diameter wheels being damaged by potholes I do not understand how having two sets of wheels and changing them seasonally will solve that problem, since the potholes are present all year.To me, the blue Model X in recent sightings looks really good. I think the larger rims give it a more aggressive look and nicer proportions. This is terrible because in New York, potholes are not kind on rims with low profile tires. Hopefully there will be enough sidewall to protect the larger rims. Smaller rims will be more practical. Perhaps ordering two sets of rims, one for the winter and one for the summer?
Thanks for the link. Here is a relevant section about "Suspended Particle Device" glass, quote:Photochromic (changes in reaction to light levels) or electrochromic(changes in reaction to electrical current) looks like coloration is possible.

Around here, the potholes are extremely bad when temperatures fluctuate and keep dipping below freezing at night. Snow melts during the day and water goes into the cracks in the road and then freezes up at night, as ice expands, it busts up all the asphalt. Summer time is not so bad unless you drive into New York City.If you are concerned about larger diameter wheels being damaged by potholes I do not understand how having two sets of wheels and changing them seasonally will solve that problem, since the potholes are present all year.
Larger rim does not necessarily mean thinner sidewall. They could still use 40 or 45 profile tires with that. We'll see.
