He said it in his podcast, if he had invested the 50k preorder deposit in Tesla shares he would have 800k. So he canceled his preorder and keep the one he got from the referal program. Also he got around 45k back after lot of struggle with Tesla, so he lost 5k and 7-8 years.

I thought his review was very good.

The second biggest scam in manufacturing history.

Exactly. This is very accurate how we should approach the development of the roadster and its future.

yes 💯 everyone wants a 7 seater SUV and best they can do is a stunt with no car to be sold until 2028, if they even sell it

MKBHD is basically captain obvious here. Roadster is clearly not a needle-mover for Tesla, and by that standard, it is not important. Anyone thinking otherwise is delusional. Is it very cool engineering? Yes. Is it relevant to the stock? Of course not.

Of course it's not important for profits. This is going to be 0.1% of all cars sold. Seriously?

It shouldnt a controversial point as it’s a product that will affect <1% of 2030 revenue

A lot of cars released don’t make a big difference in revenue and profits. I think not shipping the 2017 roadster was a mistake. Looked great.

Yeah but was that version of the roadster what became the plaid

The Model S Plaid made the Roadster obsolete.

Just the faces changed, the bias didn't

If you think @elonmusk cared about money, he would do things regular stuff. come one folks, STFU and appreciate the ingenuity!

Tesla being valued at 3x any other auto maker yet delivering only 1/10 of the volume should tell you everything you need to know about their priorities.

Hi .Hamid..love from India .. waiting for your commentry on recent bloodbath.. buy the dip rklb ??

Rivian buy signal tehe

Have you ever made an intelligent note or comment on actual engineering or are you just a professional spewer?

While in front of a Porsche too😮‍💨🙂‍↕️🤎.

The Roadster was never going to move the quarterly numbers. It was meant to move people. Some things are worth building simply because they’re extraordinary — and when you give passionate engineers the freedom to chase the impossible, you get both a machine that doesn’t exist yet and a magnet for the kind of talent that builds the future. That kind of signal is the best advertising money can’t buy.

No he wasn’t

The Luddites are abound

I thought you were smarter than that @hamids

He is an industry plant.

It’s a fanboy car

Do you all think Tesla is still a strong long-term investment, or are there better opportunities in the market right now? 🤔📈

The roadster was a fun side project for Tesla. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist or MBA to know that the non-rocket version will be the one that comes to market as a viable car.

the new porsche is so much nicer

@grok wtb my deposit for the roaster 9 years ago and put into $nvida for the 2 mil

I’m waiting for the Elon fan boys in here.

Teslas are not great cars that people think they are they only sold 1.6 million worldwide which is a trash number but I think half of that numbers SpaceX bought🤣😂
