Well Jobs and Apple were mentioned earlier. I think Apple and their corporate viewpoint would be the ideal white knight for Tesla. They were thinking of an Apple car a year or so ago so why not just buy Tesla and put the applecar name on it instead. Apple has the bucks for sure to keep Tesla going for a long time if they were so inclined.
TESLA certainly has the sleek design and foundation in which to build on. But then again. There are the debts are there not? I guess that depends and is also market driven? Certainly something to be considered. We'll see what happens.
Selling Tesla might be a wise decision given what soon unfolds for Musk. Sometimes you have to kill your babies (another name for the brilliant little writings that don't fit the larger novel--but hard to let your ego go for the larger good of one's vision) for the novel to survive.
But that would give Tesla a new life as well if it the outlook begins to look grim.
