Still Trying to Figure This All Out
What's with those silver bezels around the tail lights? First time we have seen those?

Nice!! Really looking good! I really think it's a beautiful car, period! No qualifiers of "for an SUV" or "for being aerodynamic" nothing! Just a beautiful car. The white co clean looking! Even when it's dirty!

Tesla has been using camo/painting on the front and rear lights that is a similar color of the body paint for whatever reason. See similar pictures of the white and blue ones running around town.

Seeing the "modern" nose cone appear time and again, I'm slightly leaning on throwawayaccount and the September 2014 leakster ending up being wrong on the bodycolored/gone nose cone.
Of course this is speculative. Tesla could easily change such detail still - after all the Design Studio is still hiding the nose?

It's possible, but the cone looks refined at this point, so seems like a lot of effort to hide something that's pretty inconsequential in the grand scheme of things. It's also possible it's an option, but again... meh
Nice video! Confirmation that white is indeed the best colour 
Really like the "floating" spolier - the angle seems a little different to the Atascadero, so definitely adaptive...
Also, is this the first time we have seen a badged mule?
No evidence of any downward-facing camera under the wing mirror. If the car does have 360 vision at launch, then the only other place I could imagine the cameras being hidden would be embedded in the front door handles.
Still hard to tell for sure, but here it looks like the front main lights are the LED lights spotted on the MS mule a while back...
Finally, the car looks like it is holding to the lane very precisely. Good driver or lane keeping in action?

I have the 360 view on my X6 and it's very hard to spot the cameras in the mirrors
My friend has an X5 with 360 and I agree, however the base of his wing mirrors is black plastic, which hides the camera very well. Looking at the video, the underneath of the MX mirrors and mirror arms appears to be unbroken chrome like the MS.
Agreed. It does seem likely the nose cone is what we see (plus missing trim above).

Well B pillar is one possibility but I haven't seen anything there since some earlier mules that may have had some action there (although some were just about a hole).

It is possible that Tesla put cameras elsewhere so outside mirrors can be removed in the future when laws permit.
Looking tight. They should have a mule that rips its own camo off like a male stripper's tearaway pants.

Do you mean BenRevzin.com? I can't find this up there. Could he have been asked to take it down already?
