The steering knuckle on the 1st gen was made of cast iron and painted black. From the video's, it looks like the new steering knuckles are either aluminum or painted aluminum colour. What do you think?

They’ll be steel or iron. Just like the calipers.

Silver, combined with a grey day, does not do the car any favors. Honestly a really puzzling marketing choice to go with silver as the primary release color.

I guess it’s understandable though since when you look out on the road nearly every car is grey, silver, white, or black. Consumers these days are so lame, lol.

Could just be prototype units. I am pretty sure it is cheaper and faster to straight machine a couple parts for low volume r&d than it is to set up the tooling to cast, then machine the same part.

This seems to be the color palette offered for most cars these days...
