You know, I just noticed something. Some threads have emerged from the various test-drive videos out there. For instance, they all say this is a prototype, and is very loud and rides harshly. I sure hope EM really is paying attention to those comments. Another is that the car really is a prototype -- fit and finish aren't great, the door rattles when it closes (after 2 gazillion closures, I'm not surprised), and so forth

The other thing people say routinely is that the car is just plain fun to drive. The number of grins-per-test-driver is amazing. Nobody is shrugging their shoulders saying "meh."

I'm sure the P5 will address most of these problems and that the E cars will find even more little bugs and squish 'em. Just shows the wisdom of not going straight to production from the P4.

This is why the Motley Fool Guy's test drive and review was so great. He pointed all that out AND explained up front that it is a prototype. Share share share that link. It is still working magic. Most everybody who watches it can't help but fall in love. Did you note how he just glossed over the investment opportunity. Still keeping within the warning of the gamble. And how elio put the warning out there on the blog too. It is the best review yet. And yes, the wisdom is shinning bright.

Certainly 150% by Monday. The 60day projection is now $50,187,569.50 on Nov 18th.
Here's view of that over time. Bit of a mind bender, projected dates/amounts from 60 days prior?
'Infers' the first date the data Projected to break the glass (from 60 days earlier).

Hi Lilly, you captured something I preach to my kids and that is about paying attention. Far too often adults including me sometimes completely fail to get the main idea or totally grasp something based of visual or sound bites.

The ones that annoy me so are the "protest" groups out there calling for the banishment of this that and the other based on their ADD-rattled point of view. Roll through some Yahoo articles and then flip through the comments and you'll see what I am talking about.

A big portion of us have a listening and comprehension problem hence the note that you made about Facebook. IMHO Facebook is the devil's work and you won't find me there. :D ( just kidding ).

View attachment 7010

For the uninitiated like myself, is there significance to reaching 2X the stated goal? Is that what is meant by "Break the glass"?

Thanks.
