Thanks for posting the links. Black, eh? I wasn't sure what color Elon was getting.

Quoting from the greentech article:
""Beyond that is Model 3, and we're going to do parallel investing, so we're not going to wait for Model 2 to work on Model 3," he added. Musk didn't disclose any additional details about the third model."

So essentially Elon is now saying that the Bluestar should be done pretty close to the Whitestar in time? Wasn't half the point to wait for batterytech to improve so they could get a cheap enough battery ?

Of course this might simply be a case of misquote from the journalist?

Sort of gives Tesla (re)newed energy. Congrats to them. I still want to see Whitestar and Bluestar as EV-oriented as possible. With Roadsters on the street, their stock just went up exponentially.
