Just kill it off already

(Because they gave away "free" roadsters for various promotions, and canceling it would open themselves up to lawsuits)

I'm guessing that's affordable, and irrelevant to them.

These dorsal fins aren't new at all. Just look at Audi's competitor for the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 2011, as one example for their use.

Seriously though, what the hell is this?

Sharks and laser beams, duh.

I think it's an expensive looking sports car, but not for me. Plus, "Do you want to ride my Yang Wang?" has a *very* different connotation in some parts of the world.

Yangwang doesn't sound so bad to me. That said, I'm sure if they brought it to the US they would Americanize the name.

Happy SIX YEAR Elonversary to this Earnings Call.

Russell: I’m not an expert in battery pack technology, but it seems that a lot of people are speculating that the specs for the Semi truck, even I believe the CEO of Daimler said it breaks the laws of physics. So, I’m wondering is this just a linear...

Musk: He doesn’t know much about physics. I know him. I’d be happy to engage in a physics discussion with him. I actually studied physics in college.

Russell: So, yeah, my question is that just a linear improvement in your battery technology? Or is there some sort of new breakthrough or different platform that the Semi and Roadster are going to be built on?

Musk: I mean, even if we didn’t improve our battery technology at all, we could achieve a 500 mile range truck at all. We’re going to do better than 500 miles.

Also applies to the Semi as well.
