I wasn’t paying a lot of attention, but I heard some report on TV or radio that the Chevy Bolt should be out before the Tesla S and would be serious competition. I’m not loving the name. Chevy used to name things starting with a “C”, maybe it should have been the Colt. Not sure about their current naming conventions, is the Spark an EV or not?

And that's before the Gigafactory. I even saw one in Beijing. Just zip down to your nearest Supercharger if you want to rubberneck. Odds are there's not once too far away, though there are still some blank spots in the middle of the country.

I've seen one or two Corvettes, but they only come out in the summer. A Mustang or a Camaro is the most "luxurious" car I'm likely to see day to day. My house was $68,000. I got a Hyundai Accent for $10k. Debating between a $50,000 or $100,000 car seems foreign to me. At a dealership I saw a Viper on display, but seeing one on the road is like a UFO sighting. I've literally never seen a Tesla. That would be like seeing a NASA moon rover on the street with Buzz Aldrin at the wheel. Severe rubbernecking would take place. ------ Original Message ------ From: "Eric Kuhnke" <eric.kuh...@gmail.com> To: mailto:af@afmug.com <af@afmug.com> Sent: 9/2/2016 3:31:11 PM Subject: Re: [AFMUG] OT Stock I sort of agree with you on the model 3. But for the model S, it's great in its market niche. If I were in the market for an Audi A8, BMW 750 or large Mercedes S-class, the full size luxury sedans they're competing with... In Vancouver and Seattle I have seen considerably fewer full size gasoline luxury cars and a lot more new model S driving around in the last 2 years. I would rather buy a model S/P100D and enjoy ludicrous mode.

"Starting price of $35,000"... but that is a bare-bones model, and includes the Fed tax break... which by the time they actually release cars, their allotted amount of tax credits may already be used up by their current cars. I'll bet more than half of the people ask for their deposits back once they see the car is $50,000. I've driven BMW, Mercedes, Audi, Porsche, Ferrari, and even a Lamborghini for a test drive, and there are much better cars for $50k than what this Model 3 will be. There are WAY better cars than their current Model S for $100k+. The whole company is riding the "hype train" and at some point, it will run out of track. They can't keep losing $10k on every car they sell and stay in business forever.

Tesla pays nothing. Tesla is also highly overrated according to everyone in the stock market. If it's a short-term thing, you may do OK... long term, you have to factor in the 3% you were making on Wells ($1,500/year) and compound that into the value. Wells is still one of Warren Buffet's biggest holdings.
