He has actually said he wants to build electric jets at some interview. I of course can't remember when or where, but that cameo is in many ways true yes.

my point was that the $50,000 Model S is supposed to go 160 miles on a charge and getting the 300 mile battery pack, which is what the media most often quotes when talking about the Model S, will mean customers will be paying $65,000+ for a base Model S with a 300-mile range.
The problem with that is "Joe Average" who isn't well educated on electric cars will believe (and probably argue) that the $50,000 Model S has a range of 300-miles due to the way the press talks about the Model S and I'm curious as to how Tesla is going to address that issue.
The Model S is expected to be the first pure electric premium sedan and is designed from the ground up to take full advantage of the electric vehicle architecture. The sedan, which Tesla unveiled in March 2009, has an anticipated base price of $49,900, including a federal tax credit, and is intended to deliver the foremost design and technology in the automotive world. With an optional extended-range battery pack, the Model S will travel over 300 miles per charge.

A guy at work yesterday said he heard Elon and the Downey mayor making nice on the radio.
I asked NPR and he said yes. Was not able to find it. maybe he was mistaken.
So far, tesla has agreed to purchase NUMMI for $42M. That's it.
Wow only $42 mil, with the $50 mil investment, it sounds like a good deal. I doubt Downey could match the terms. Don't know if there is rent there though (like the Downey situation).
But San Jose and likely the New Mexico site (though it wasn't an issue back then) did not.Yes, the federal funds dictated a brown site. That means they had to adapt from an exisitng facility and not build a new ground up new factory.
Both the Downey site and the NUMMI site fit the definition.
