For $775 this kit from BearBu would give you a 360 view of your car. It took LowTech two days to install it but the result are pretty cool. I would recommend you to watch the video and look at how the cameras look from outside.
Tesla has decided to pull the plug on their $35k version of the M3 (SR). Honestly, given the difference in price, I personally think SR+ gives you more bang for your buck. Going forward, Tesla also factored Autopilot as part of the price and included it in all cars. If you are interested in the SR version, you can still order it off menu at a store or via phone. If you are getting a new Tesla and need a referral code, you can use ours https://ts.la/ignacio9266.
In another surprising move, they started a leasing program for M3. If you think this is a good option, you have to know there’s a catch. You can’t purchase the car at the end of the lease, you would need to return it since Tesla is planning on using those for their future float of autonomous taxis. Did we say we are so much looking forward to see what they present on Monday related to Autopilot?

Last Saturday our family spent a really nice morning attending the Earth Day EV Ride & Drivin Palo Alto. I heard about it through the Tesla Owners Silicon Valley group and decided to volunteer some of my time to share with people the wonders of having an electric vehicle. Meanwhile, our girls had fun in the park, dancing, playing, and learning new things about how to better take care of our planet.

Kenneth Moore reported on Twitter that his M3 paused the music when an ambulance approached them and resumed it when it was out of ear shot. This is the first time that we’ve heard about something like this. Have you seen it happen before?

NIO released a mobile charging service that recently expanded to other cars including Tesla. Honestly, I think something like this would make a lot of sense in the US. You could just park anywhere and a van would come and charge your car, brilliant!
