Someone posted this from IDRAs LinkedIn page today. It was posted about a day ago, and shows a new 9KT Gigapress being assembled. It seems to have Tesla colors. Maybe a second gigapress for Giga Austin
?

Just white. The cranes have the red.

This could be the press we heard about getting shipped to Asia.

Cybertruck only requires 2 presses max unless they are planning on ramping up FAST. It would be very interesting if Tesla was ordering more than a couple. All of this GP news around the investor day meeting about big production is certainly curious.

For new M3 by any chance? Tesla is obsessed with cost and part reduction. Could M3 be simplified with this?

True, but they hadn’t installed the other pieces yet.
I just rewatched the clip and one of the red hinges is on the floor. So, most likely a Tesla gigapress but, as @greggertruck pointed out, even though it was posted this week it might be an old clip.
