I've now seen about 10 Tesla here in Lincolnshire alone. I've seen a red one from time to time. Mostly you see Black or White. This is because white was originally the default colour with no extra cost then black became the default. As a lot of these vehicles are company fleet, the choice tends to be the default.
The factories are highly automated so not many humans to go around messing them up. Shanghai looks really clean too. Fremont no so much so but Fremont is an old GM factory from the 50's which was Toyota and then Tesla. They'd need to flatten it and start again to get the same level of shine.
Texas is that clean in the production areas but is only about 20% built out inside. As they build out Texas the same shine will flow throughout.
I remember reading about the McLaren factory in the UK where everything in it was literally polished to a shine and the cars moved through a pristine clean environment. I guess the only way to ensure the vehicle emerges pristine and clean out the end of the line.
