Hopefully these won't catch on fire.

The new Model 3 is set to be unveiled in 2016 and on sale by 2017. It's most likely to be based on an all-new platform rather than a cut-down version of the one underpinning the Model S and Model X. The new technology will be the brainchild of Tesla’s British engineering chief Chris Porritt, who used to work with Aston Martin.
quote:
The new car is rumoured to be about 20% smaller than the Model S and our image shows how it could look. Key to the new model, which Musk said should retail for around $35,000 (likely to equate to around £30,000 in the UK), is cheaper battery technology made possible by Tesla’s forthcoming Gigafactory.
Hopefully these won't catch on fire.

I would drive it for sure. Great price on a good looking car. The brand will sort out its woes and come around eventually.

it's not like that is a huge stretch...

I just saw one on my lunch break. Thing has some power.

$35K is equal to £20400.4 not £30K which is equal to almost $60k U.S. big difference

You are saying that the U.S. based car will sell for 50% less than in Europe, don't even think so.
Now BMW has a deal where you buy the car over there, drive Europe and then they will ship it home for you for the same price as a U.S. purchase.
