    Model S Accident/Fire

    Yeah, this worries me too. Although I'm not 100% on the details from what I've read the Tesla hit a "metal object" which caused the fire. Will fender benders be a serious problem for Tesla? If simply hitting a metal object caused a fire then surely a fender bender would cause the same damage...

    Tesla to be profitable in Q1, both GAAP and non-GAAP

    This is HUGE. Short squeeze to begin?

    2012 Q4 Earnings Report thread

    +1. I was hoping for a small sell off too. Hopefully shorts take this opportunity to get out of their position. On another note, why did they lock the investor discussion thread. It was a great thread to just go into and talk about random topics.

    NYT article: Stalled on the EV Highway

    Awesome memes Citizens-T. I really can't wrap my head around people defending Broder. Even if I wasn't an EV enthusiast I still don't think I could understand his POV.

    That car looked good. If it was electric and had decent range (200 miles+) I'd be all over it.

    Model S World's Quickest EV + Model S vs Viper SRT10 Drag Race

    It's funny how personal they take these 1/4 mile drag race videos. Like it's an attack of everything they know.

    Correct me if Im wrong but wouldnt now be the best time to short the stock? They're nearing their 52-week high and they'll likely post lower than predicted numbers for Q4 2012.

    TSLA Investor Discussions

    What do you guys think the chances of Tesla being taken over by one of the bigger auto makers after the Gen III vehicle is released? I've been thinking about this and I could see this happening. Elon has stated over and over again that his goal to be the catalyst that makes EVs mainstream and...

    Huge win for Tesla. Congrats to Tesla and the employees that have worked their butts off there.

    Solar City files for $201 million IPO

    Anybody investing in this company? I don't know anything about Solar power or the company but anything that Elon is involved with is a good bet imo.

    Production Rate (incl manufacturing waves)

    I wonder what kind of supplier issues would cause bottlenecks like this? I definitely don't think Elon would slow production because of the chrome on the door handles or something trivial like that. It would have to be something more significant, right? I don't think he would want bad press like...

    So is everybody still long on Tesla? What effect will this news have on their ability to pay back the DOE loans and stay solvent as a company? I really want to stay long on Tesla but may wait till Q2 2013 before I pick up any more shares. We need to see if they can hit their production target...

    The Supercharger is nice but when a start up is struggling to meet production goals it's going to be on the forefront of any other news. Tesla desperately needs to get these Model S' out and any failure to do that is going to shake investor confidence even on the heels of the Supercharger...

    Tesla Supercharger network

    He doesn't have the army of fanatical followers like Apple yet. He'll have Apple-type announcements once Tesla is mainstream. fwiw I was pretty geeked out durning the announcement too.
