I like carrot better $4k instead of $5k for AWD, why are they using the stick for FSD? They got nothing to show for it, why penalize people? This is unfair practice. FSD might still be years away with all the chances to total the car before you ever use it.

Hey! "Matte" can be "dull." I know a guy named Matt who's dull.
Clearly too much excitement today. Past my bedtime.

I'm thinking things like sign recognition and traffic indicators will be rolling out shortly. I believe they will FSD features even thought FSD won't be fully rolled out yet.
For goodness sake.....EAP is still in beta - if you really want to be honest.

Got the price....Got the name of the colors.
Don't got what the new color means. What officially differentiates the difference between the original black and the new one?

As someone that's seen a Solid Black Model 3 parked next to an Obsidian Black Metallic Model S, it'd be clearest labeled "Black Primer" & "The Sexy Black You Desire Enough That You're Going To Drop $1000 To Get It, You Know You Want It So Just Click Here Already".From the configurator, it looks like "dull" and "shiny." Or "nonreflective of light" and "reflective." Does that help? Didn't think so.
Caveats about owning a black car aside, Obsidian Black Metallic is a beautiful thing to behold. I can't see how it won't look awesome on the Model 3.

This new configurator looks a LOT more like the Model S and X configurator rollout.
Highest priced to the front of the line.

I wonder if the tiny spoiler is just enough to make the car more stable at the higher speed, so they uncap it a bit if you have that?

Heck, red now becomes less preferable over blue for me, since it went up $500
Congrats on filling up half of this thread in less than 30 minutes with posts about shades of black that could've been answered with a simple Google image search. Impressive.
Either that or it is because of the better tires and brakes that come with the $5k performance upgrade option.

Initially I thought this way, however, when I went though designing using my second reservation I made just in case I was interested in a different model car the price difference was much greater.
Using the same color and EAP but in a performance version, my price difference was about $18K. Essentially the almost fully loaded Performance model was $75K. Probably still a little much for me. I was hoping to get lucky and have the performance version be around $70k before the $7.5k tax reduction.
Whether or not it gets the full tax benefit appears to be in question.

Tesla has NOT - and won't - hit 200k cars sold in the US in Q2. People constantly do bad math and confuse US vs global sales (or even production). All that matters is EVs SOLD to US buyers, and that key target of 200k of US sales will hit the first week of July (ergo, the full $7500 tax credit will remain until New Years Eve). I'll bet my 3/31/16 reservation on it
