    Are you also investing in Tesla?

    I know we have a bunch of Tesla enthusiasts on here but are you guys also putting your money in the company so that when/if it becomes the #1 car company you'll be cashing in too.

    So are you investing in Tesla and where do you think this stock will be in 3 years?

    Today there was an increase in stock price of a little over 14%. Not bad for a day. One of the best days in weeks. No telling about tomorrow, but sooner or later, people are going to "get it" and jump on the bandwagon while the jumping is good. Tesla is going where no car has gone before, and you know they will make it.
    Of course, I invested. I support the concept of electrics, I know we are in exit mode on cheap energy, and if all else fails and Tesla folds and you lose your money, you know the banks will not be far behind and you'd lose it anyway. In the interim, I'd rather Tesla has it than the banks.

    As a Roadster owner, I was offered the opportunity to buy 500 "friends and family" shares at the IPO price. I did buy them. I don't have a feel for the proportion of owners who took advantage of that offer.

    Maybe so, TEG, but there was no similar jump when Toyota jumped in, NUMMI was finalized, or when Mercedes bought in.
    I think it's just the snowball slowly rolling, collecting more speed and size. People are beginning to know "Tesla", what they do, about the car. Some people. Just today a Dr. asked me if I had invested in Tesla. Of course! And so had he. And it wasn't because of the battery deal.

    Conference call at 2pm PT. Are you guys tuning in?

    Should be interesting to hear where they're at and if every thing is on schedule for 2012.

    Just got home, called up TSLA stock quote. No new buy ins from Panasonic, or auto makers. Stock jumped second time this week, another 15%. Hope you all have TSLA stock.

    I went through the same decision between fusion or Radiant Red or white. The car looks amazing in Red but decided to get the white with CF too. Glad it looks cool as well. Either way, it's still a Tesla Roadster so I'm sure I'll be happy. Waiting for delivery is tough!
