1. Futuristically ugly, but at least interesting. Teslas are bland and ugly, except for the Roadster, which owes its styling to Lotus.
2. Building one and building many are totally different monsters. I doubt they can do it because they'll run out of money soon. They need to hire @Tcoat.
3. The EV space is set to get very crowded over the next three years. By 2020, there will be a broad selection of luxury and non-luxury cars from major brands. Even Tesla will have trouble keeping up, let alone a startup.
4. Quality is going to be awful. With all their success, Tesla still hasn't delivered 80k cars in a single calendar year, their reliability is still atrocious, and their interiors are 100% on par with a $30k VW.
5. My first Porsche will likely be a Mission E.
