Well, this should either ease or make unbearable the waiting process for those 400,000 Model 3 pre-orderers.

Some two years before deliveries are likely to begin, a Tesla fan has created a convincing unofficial Tesla Model 3 configurator. It's called model3config, and it allows users to slather the all-new Tesla in nine different body colors and two distinct wheel shades.

The site also has a third tab for interior specification. Except to say it will be spaceship-y, Tesla hasn't yet revealed the production interior. If you click the interior configurator tab, though, it takes you two a "check back again soon" screen with an image of the Millennium Falcon cabin.

More than just a way for Model 3 enthusiasts to pass the time before the car goes into production, the site calls for donations. It says collected funds will "help support continued development of this website and will also go toward an eager buyer's Model 3 savings."

It'll be interesting if Tesla allows such a site to continue, even though the funds will be funneled to the company by way of a Model 3 purchase. Either way, go check it out. It's nonetheless fun to play around with.

As for what I'd choose, I like the red multi-coat paint and the 20-inch grey turbine wheels. How would you spec yours?
