Well, I guess I could say I called it, but there isn't much credit for assuming the obvious.

So what about New Mexico:
Tesla, Schwarzenegger to Make WhiteStar Manufacturing Announcement « Earth2Tech
Quote:
While Tesla won’t comment further on what the announcement is until Monday afternoon, we’re guessing that Tesla will partly manufacture its WhiteStar sedan in California. If so, would this be in addition to the plant planned for New Mexico, or would it replace that plant? In February 2007 Tesla said that it would build a $35 million assembly plant in Albuquerque to produce the WhiteStar. Construction on that New Mexico plant was supposed to start in April 2007 and deliver 400 jobs to the area.
It's probably safe to assume the CA announcement means the end of the New Mexico plant.
