I've heard a lot about the Berlin paint shop, the new colors, the new tech, etc. But I haven't heard bubkis about the paint shop in Texas. I have a hard time believing that they'd build a fancy schmancy paint shop in Berlin and not have Texas have the same tech and capabilities.

Is there an article/reference material/anything somewhere that indicates that the MYs out of Austin will have Berlin-style paint?

It's supposed to have a fancier one, but no news yet of new colors, no.

They might not do new colors to reduce repair costs during the ramp-up. The new colors are in limited supply in Berlin during their ramp.

It will probably be at least as nice as the Berlin shop. Why would they go backward? That is not Tesla's (or anyone's) style. The bigger question is how one might acquire one of them, because it doesn't really matter how they are made if they aren't available to anyone. No news on that front.
