So.. it's not a $35k Model 3 but a premium derivative thereof. Gotcha. That's kind of misleading if ya ask me, that's like claiming the new Challenger is under $28,000 and can do a 1/4 mile in 10.85 seconds... exclusively true, not mutually.

Hoping the Model 3 is a success one way or another - at $50k it'll have plenty of stiff competition from all the luxo-turbocharged teutonic and japanese brands.
Yeah agree, to be honest I was just skimming headlines and saw those specs. It's not until you get into the text of the article that you see those are probably upgrades over the $35k base. Still if you are lucky enough to get the $10k in credits, you might be able to get all that for $35k depending on how Tesla prices the upgrades. Smoking deal IMO.
