This is great. This is how technology improves. Everyone wants some of Tesla, which means that the technology will get cheaper and cheaper and better and better.

Because it’s so much worse than when an ICE car’s gas tank explodes. I swear, it’s a running theme every time there’s a Tesla post: someone makes a vague, underhanded your-uncle-on-Facebook kind of comment that somehow batteries make these cars more “dangerous” in some way. Come on: “cut loose?” You make lithium-ion

CP. This looks like fried hell. For that price you can get a clean stock 914, that A: doesn't look like shit, and B: will actually go up in value.

Spy shots are out there already. The look appears to have changed significantly.

I was thinking jock-strap and I’m concerned about why I was thinking that.

The only part I dislike is the “we need a grille shape” grille.

If this really shows up with a $30k price tag and a 200 mile range, it will be a massive hit.

I would still vote for him over a criminal.

Because CAFE standards are tightening progressively every year until 2025 according to current policy, so just because they can meet with a V6 in 2015 doesn't mean they will be able to in 2020.

Things are getting interesting re: electric cars.

I’m not into hybrid sports cars, but an all-electric Vette would be cool.

I would rather have the Corvette X-Ray Spec’s. Corporate branding has really expanded into everything.

The exhaust note will be the furious roar of Jalopnik commenters decrying, for the 18th time, The Death Of Real Cars(TM).

That’s not an F56 interior...

Can they recall the entire line-up’s interiors, too? So bad. MINI needs a reboot without the circle shit and twinkie faces.

One of the shittiest things about being President, and there must be a long list of shitty things about that gig, would be not being able to drive anymore.

Is he secretly a die-hard Jalop?
